Want flawless makeup that stays put all day and gives you a radiant glow in pictures? MAC senior makeup artist Maite Tuset from Spain says that if you can only remember 5 things about achieving photo-perfect bridal makeup, these would be it …
1. Use waterproof mascara
The day might be filled with happy tears and it is important ensure your look stays put. Choose a waterproof mascara to make sure your makeup look lasts!
2. Look to long-lasting products
Long-lasting products are essential to keep your face fresh and bright throughout your big day especially the face, lips and eyes. Think about using a matte texture on your lips, applying primers or bases and long-wearing concealers and foundations. For your eyes, M∙A∙C Pro Longwear Paint Pots and Fluidline pencils are always great choices for vivid colour and longer wear.
3. Have touch-up products on hand
Even if you choose long-wearing products for your wedding day makeup, remember to bring a few products like lipstick and powder for quick touch-ups. This will help keep your look fresh from the aisle to the dance floor!
4. Remember to highlight key features
Don't forget to give extra attention to your face and body's most important features. If your dress has a low neckline and showcases your clavicles, add highlights to make them extra radiant. Moisturise your skin with Mineralize Charged Water Face & Body Lotion and then apply a thin layer of Strobe Cream with MAC's 188 Small Duo Fiber Face Brush in the areas of higher volume like shoulders and clavicles. Your skin will look shiny and alluring.
5. Don't forget the eyebrows
Eyebrows are important to highlight in any bridal beauty look. Select products that best suit your face and colouring. Whether the look is natural or dramatic, choose to feel yourself. It's your day after all!
