Practice.


Bridals and Wedding day. This is the makeup look I'm going for. Yes, I'm doing my own make-up for the big day. My good friend Chloe (from my Self-Defense Class !!!) is a makeup artist and she's been helping me get this look together. Yesterday we went to different stores and bought the goods I'll need. Then we went to her place and she taught me a few tricks. She would do one side, and I would do the other. Here are pics from yesterday's learning session: (I ate before I took these, so the lipstick is a bit smudged + the lighting in this apartment is horrible!!!)
This evening, tired of studying, I decided to get some practice time in. Wedding Makeup Practice Session 1:

How am I doing? Feedback on this one would be seriously appreciated! I think I want less eye- liner on the bottom and more defined lips, however I will have different [classic red] lipstick and that will help complete 'the look' a lot (we couldn't find what I wanted yesterday here in Pootah, so I'll just buy what I need when I get to Hendo).

Love it. I need to find a good red, too. Help?! Love the colors. Only recommendation would be to continue the dark eyeshadow up a bit higher on your eyelid.

And can you teach me how to do the liquid eyeliner? I suck at that. :)

I love it!! You can totally pull that look off! Especially with the dress you have! Although I have only seen pictures of it! Good luck future cousin! :)

I don't think I even wore lipstick at my wedding, and I definitely did my own make up! I love the look, I wish I could pull it off. You will be gorgeous!
