Last week I had a make-up customer from Stockholm at the salon in Uppsala who is getting married this summer and doing her own bridal make-up. So we did a makeup consultation ink. products where I select products adapted for bridal makeup and which she can easily learn to do on herself :)

It is a great investment for the wedding! Depending on how much products you have to buy at home, it often ends up in about the same price range as if you book a makeup artist who does both bridal make-up and test make-up, but now you also get knowledge and products that last much much longer than just one day.

Here is the result:

BASE:

Face primer - Pixi Flawless & poreless
Foundation - Pixi H2O Skintint (2 Nude)
Concealer - gloMinerals Under Eye Concealer (Golden)
Powders that remove redness - gloMinerals Redness Relief Powder
Contouring & highlighter - Pixi Book of beauty contour creator
Rouge - gloMinerals Blush (Papaya)
Fixing mist - Pixi Makeup Fixing Mist
Dehydrating powders - Paese Bamboo Silk Powder

We started with a face primer that is debilitating for oily skin and fills pores. After that a gel foundation that is water resistant (good at weddings when you have to be prepared for all weathers and tears) and which does not contain spf which is also good when you get married and need to be photographed a lot. And a little concealer on a few small dots.

Since redness relief powder that removes redness is incredibly effective, it is great for preventive purposes at weddings even if you flare up easily when you get nervous or drink a glass of bubbly. Contouring and highlighter (both matte highlighter and with luster) and a rosy blush on the cheeks, but the blush should also be careful with at weddings if black and white pictures are to be taken, color becomes a gray shadow on the picture which can make the cheeks look a little imprinted out.

We finished with fixing mist and then degrading powder after that - I always apply the powder after the mist, otherwise the powder will absorb the mist.

Eyebrows - Pixi natural brow duo (Deep Brunette)

We filled in the eyebrows with a brow pencil that is shaped like a triangle (gives a very soft filling) and brow gel with a little color. We put a little extra in the highest points to raise the eyebrows more.

EYES:

Eyeshadow Primer - Pixi eye bright primer
Eyeshadows - Paese Opal Eyeshadow (Melba)
Light eyeliner along the waterline - gloMinerals Eye Pencil (Peach)
Eyeliner - Kryolan HD Cream Liner (Ebony)
Mascara - Magnetic lash mascara

The Melba palette from Paese are so nice wedding colors! Peach, apricot and light brown, really nice! We put light inside, pink in the middle and brown in the outer edge and over the globe line.

We then marked the eyes with lash marking / lashliner and brightened up the waterline with an off-white pencil.

Lipstick - The lips in the picture are a little mixed because we tested a little different, but the one she decided to wear at the wedding is the matte lipstick gloMinerals Suede Matte Crayon (Monogram). It is a great lipstick when you want it to last all day and not get messy when you kiss your new husband;)

So fine!
