Joyful Brides

By: Joy Adenuga

When it is time to prepare for your nuptials remember, the first thing people see is your beautiful face and your skin, and makeup must be flawless.

To prepare for your special day, one of the most important steps to a radiant skin is to always start with cleansing the skin. I love using Bioderma Sensibio H20. Moisturize with Chanel Hydra Beauty Sérum and prime with Smashbox Photo Finish foundation primer. Using a damp beauty blender sponge, apply Lancome Teint Idole Ultra 24H foundation. Conceal any imperfections with MAC Pro longwear concealer and set using Laura Mercier loose powder in Translucent.

Apply a mix of MAC swish, expensive pink and melon pigment to create a gradient hue of pink rose on the lids. Finish off the eyes by lining with MAC gel liner in Black Track and double stacks of Ardell 120 lashes. On cheeks, contour using Sleek MakeUP Face Contour Kit in Dark and illuminate using Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick in Cranberry. On the lips, a mix of Bobbi Brown’s rich lip color in Nude Rose and Plum Rose applied with a clear gloss on top.

Sweep MAC blush in Ambering Rose on the cheeks and blend out. To make eyes pop, especially small eyes, line the waterline with a beige colored Kohl pencil. On the lips, line with Nyx Slim lip pencil in Expresso and fill in with Sleek MakeUP True Color Lipstick in Peaches and Cream.

Perfect for the bride who wants a bold lip without overdoing it. Keep eyes simple with just a beige Kohl liner on the waterline. On the lips, line the entire lips with MAC lip liner in Burgundy and apply Lime Crime liquid lipstick in Wicked.
