Want to look like the perfect bride on your special day? Here are a few make-up tips to keep in mind:
Tip 1: Opt for the smokey eye look. Move away from the traditional doe-eyed make-up and opt for something bolder by donning smokey eyes. This look suits the Indian skin tone and pairs with all kinds of outfits. You can opt for bronze tones if you do not want to apply black eyeshadow.
Tip 2: KISS i.e. keep it simple, stupid! We know it is your wedding, but you don't have to go overboard and use every cosmetic in your make-up kit. The trick to looking good is to enhance your features and hide your flaws and use make-up to do so. Ask your make-up artist to take a look at your outfit and decide on a look accordingly.
Tip 3: Style your hair according to your face. You don't always have to opt for a bun. You can let your hair down or have a half up-do depending on the shape of your face. People who have an oval face can practically opt for any hairstyle, but those who want to hide their chubby cheeks can try leaving their hair open to camouflage it.
Tip 4: Don't forget your hands and feet. With your face hogging all the limelight, getting a mani-pedi may slip your mind. But be sure to book an appointment a few days prior to the event and choose a nail colour which complements your outfit and overall look.
Tip 5: Plan in advance. Once you decide what you are wearing, fix an appointment with your make-up and hair expert to try different looks which will suit you. This will save you from any surprises on the D-Day and also prevent last minute changes in your look.
