this isn’t an argument btw just curious, why do people sacrifice makeup artists over other costs incurred during a wedding?

[@bossyboots5000]

I thought it was very cool that she did this with drugstore bc it makes the look accessible to anyone, regardless of economic status. And by doing it, it acknowledges that not everyone can afford to hire a makeup artist, and there's nothing wrong with that. And some people just want to do their own makeup bc they don't trust a stranger on one of the most important events, and that's ok too.

[@ynat2198]

@@siobhan-rae I did my own makeup for my (at home) wedding in December 2020. I did my own for other weddings before that too. even before the pandemic, i skeeved other people touching me let alone my FACE. i know i wash my brushes well, i know that i don't dip my fingers in anything and i keep everything sanitized. I'm quick to throw out old stuff and i don't spend money on full bottles of foundation because i think it's a waste and unhygienic. also i believe VERY strongly in skincare before makeup. i fully support makeup artists but i would never trust anyone to treat my skin better than i treat it myself and i won't pay for sub-par work. that's just me though.

[@marteumar8429]

Absolutely not. But considering how drag queen esque makeup is popular these days, I can see why some people think a normal full face of makeup is “natural”. I just think is completely counterproductive how some women call makeup looks that clearly look like the woman is wearing makeup “no makeup look” just because it is not completely kardashian drag. It undermines the term.

[@germaniums2611]

@@marteumar8429 this is most definitely a ‘natural’ look. Although she does have a full face of makeup on, it is simply a subtle enhancement of her natural face rather than purposeful additions. Also, in regards to your consistent misuse of ‘drag’, we have taken inspiration from ‘drag’ makeup for many many years now, not just as of recent times. If makeup looks natural, then it’s natural, stop over-complicating things…

Such a pretty bridal look you've done. And really, a pretty look for anytime! Love that glow. When I got married, I did a look a lot like this. No falsies, nothing too glam. Funny story, actually. A month or two before my wedding, I did a practice run with my chosen makeup artist; and I hated it. I didn't feel like me. It was too heavy and felt like costume makeup. Then, my makeup artist went into labor a day before my wedding, and her backup wasn't only available, she was amazing. She'd done makeup in her home country, for the red carpet. And she nailed exactly what I wanted. She used a lot of my own makeup, which also helped me look and feel more me. I think we did a combo of my usual lip gloss and her liner to make it stay. Somehow, it worked out!

I'm getting married in May 2023 and I have the same problem. I'm pale and freckled, and since I have been a teenager everyone around me from the makeup counter ladies to the aunties in the neighbourhood wants to give me foundation two shades too dark with dramatic dusky purple eye makeup. So I am also doing my wedding makeup myself and I'm starting to practice now already.

​@@simonewilkens8108Hey How did it went

[@shannonobrien7473]

You look beautiful, but this is more natural than my everyday makeup 🧍🏻‍♀️ Can't wait for the glam one! Also I have VERY oily skin, so I'd love to see a matte skin look rather than a glowy one, bc my skin will be "glowy" enough on its own by the end of the day/night

[@SaReLaMo]

I did my own makeup for my wedding. The best advice is to practice over and over again. Take pictures in different lighting to see how the makeup looks in picture, and to get the whole picture. Wear white clothes (if you're wearing a white dress). The white will bring out different tones and undertones in your skin and makeup you might not notice with other colors in your clothes. Also the season play a part. Summer, sun and brightness and very warm tones in your surroundings, Autumn also very warm colors, but can also be a bit cooler and darker (cloudy).. winter, very cool and white and cold. And yes! Take your time. Start early! I started too late and was done too late so I didn't have time to do my hair properly😅

[@deisison2550]

Love this very ethereal look. Frequently, wedding looks are overboard. I understand wanting to look special. It’s just that nerves kick in on your wedding day and people end up a little heavy handed from nerves. If aDIY bride starts with this look, she’s likely to end up in between this and full Glam anyway. That’s just a little hint to brides. Don’t be surprised if you end up “more” than the natural look. It’s ok. You’ll get 100 hugs and kisses. You’ll still be gorgeous be the end of the night with this layering.
