Wedding make-up dress dress inspiration!

[diege]

Getting married in August and will be doing my own make-up. I've been looking at Pinterest etc for ideas, and really love the pinky tones look for eyes, with cats eyes eyeliner, bit of a false lash look etc. BUT I have very small deep set eyes so not sure this would work for me 🤣
I am getting drawn to Charlotte Tilbury youtube vids but don't want to look too 'try hard'. At the same time I want something a bit elevated from my day look (wear pillow talk on my lips, glossier brow products and puff cloud paint. Very happy with my Il makiage foundation. Another factor is the ability to recreate the 'look' on the day on my own 🥴
Any tips/suggestions gratefully received!

I should add that my colouring is fair/medium skin tone, dark hair with highlights, blue/green eyes.

I did my own wedding make up and booked an appointment at the clinique counter (my preferred brand at the time) a couple of months before. Asked questions, listened intently and bought the key products so that I could practice before hand. Still very happy with how it looked on the day, significantly cheaper than a MUA, and I still have the eyeshadow (don't judge me!!)
You've got lots of time to practice between now and the wedding - good luck and congrats!! X

@LadyShrek2k19 that's helpful, thank you. I am very happy to put the groundwork in now, and as a 'older bride' know my limitations 🤣, but at the same time want to look my very best. Maybe I should book an appointment at a makeup counter - I like Charlotte Tilbury, also Bobbi Brown, Mac stuff.

I love Lisa Eldridge's tutorials on YouTube, she has one where she recreates her own wedding makeup but lots of other occasion makeup looks that would work well

@BellatrixOnABadDay Thank you, I'll take a look at her tutorials 😊

@diege I think her style is so lovely and classy and timeless, modern and fresh but also very classic and I don't think will date unlike the horrible kardashian instagram style.

These might be good to start:

@BellatrixOnABadDay She's good! 😅 I really like her 'look' and think I could have a good go at it. I need to buy brushes though!
