Are you a Natural Makeup kind of girl? 🤭 Natural Makeup doesn’t have to mean boring….it just means that your skin looks like skin and all your features are enhanced in a subtle way!

Here is a lovely example of a more natural makeup. There’s nothing boring about beautiful Becky 🥰 Her eyes are enhanced with just a light wash of eyeshadow, her skin is perfected without a heavy coverage and she is glowing in all the right places without seeing a powdery highlight. Let me know if this is your kind of makeup in the comments 👇🏻 You can also learn how to get this look in my DIY Bridal Makeup Bootcamp. Send me a DM if you’d like to know how to sign up ♥️

Do you know where to start when deciding what kind of makeup to have on your wedding day ⁉️ If the answer is no keep reading! 💯

Even if you have hired a Makeup artist for your wedding day it is still helpful to plan what kind of makeup you want for the day. This will help when you start to trial the makeup on yourself, and it will also help your makeup artist get it right for you!

Here are my top tips to get you started on deciding what type of makeup you should go for ⬇️

1 ↪️ Start by scrolling Instagram & Pinterest to look for makeup looks that catch your eye. Use specific search terms to narrow your search. for example you could search Depending on what you think you like.

2 ↪️ Collect all the pictures you liked in one place (Pinterest is good for making a board of pictures you like) and study each picture to decide what aspects of that makeup you like and don’t like. This will help you decide what kind of eye makeup you like, how you want your skin to look and what lips/cheek colours you want to try.

3↪️ Instead of trying to copy the makeup in one picture, you can make separate Pinterest boards for different aspects of your makeup. You may find a picture with eyeshadow that you really like but you really don’t like the lip colour, or the skin makeup isn’t what you’re looking for. This process will narrow down what you do and don’t like and will avoid any confusion or miscommunication at your trial.

When you join the DIY bridal makeup bootcamp, I walk you through this step and provide you with your personalised bridal makeup planner! I love using my planner to decide on bridal looks and it’s fun finding out what you like and don’t like! Let me know in the comments how you get on with your planning 🥰

Ever wondered how makeup artists get that perfect Smokey line on the lower lashes? 🌟 It’s all in the brush!

This has quickly become my favourite brush this wedding season! It’s small enough to build up a Smokey lash line and is great for smoking out eye line as well! Who’s adding this to their shopping list? You can also get 20% off using my code on LFTFDIYBRIDAL

Want to know the secret to my glowy glam bridal base? 🔐

I have had a lot of messages this week asking what I use to create the base for my brides… so I thought I’d let you into the secret and share the exact products I use to create a base that is just right for each bride.

➡️ Hollywood Flawless Filter

➡️ Face and Body Foundation

➡️ Ultra HD Foundation

➡️ Pro Longwear Concealer or Studio Fix Conceal abs Correct palette

I use these products in different ways to create a base that is just right for my bride. Sometimes I use just one of these and other times I use all of them together. Leave a comment if you’d like to know which is the right option for you 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

The Smokey Eye 🌟

Hands up who is going for a Smokey eye on their wedding day... and a double hands up of you are doing it yourself 🙌

When creating an eye makeup like this I always start with a medium eyeshadow as the base. You can the darken the outer corners and the lash line with a darker colour and add a shimmer colour of your choice! I went for Bronze for my beautiful bride Jennifer 😍

🌟 Read the Caption to find out more ⬇️

This is a question I get asked A LOT and there is no straight answer. It all depends on how you want your makeup to look and feel.

Firstly, one thing to AVOID when choosing what base to wear on your wedding day are products with high a SPF. SPF in foundations and powders cause flashback, making your face look white in photos. Your face will look normal in real life, but when a photo is taken with the flash on, the SPF in your foundation will cause your face to look whiter than it actually is. Chalky powders also cause a powdery cast in photos.

Secondly, the type of foundation you choose will all depend on what you want your makeup to look like.

I have four different options in my bridal kit. These are a Highlighting Primer, Sheer Foundation/Tinted Moisturiser, Full Coverage Foundation and Concealer. After chatting with my bride I decide which of these products to use to get her desired look. Some times I even mix these products to get the look she wants.

Or you would like more help to decide which type of foundation to go for, head to my blog and read about how each of the products I use can look. If you want to go one step better you can learn exactly how to use them I my DIY Bridal Makeup Bootcamp 💯

Look at these baby blues 💫

I usually recommended using brown and gold tones to bring out blue eyes, but if you have very fair skin/hair, pinky tones work really well as well!

To recreate this eye look, use a light to medium pink eye shadow on the outer edges and a very light shadow across the eyelid! I stuck to Matte shadows for this look but you could also add a little bit of shimmer to to it as well! 🌟

Let me know if you are going for a Matte Eye look or a shimmery eye look!

Thinking about doing your own Bridal Makeup?... Here is a quick reminder that YOU CAN DO IT with a little help from me 🌟

Whatever your reasons are for doing your own Bridal Makeup, I am sure you are feeling a little worried about whether it’s going to turn out ok! Friends and family might be telling you that you’ll never be able to do your own makeup and that you should just spend the money and hire a professional for the day!

BUT I understand that it’s not all about money! A lot of the students on the DIY Bridal Makeup bootcamp have chosen to do their own makeup as they have not felt like themselves having had their makeup done before. They want to have some control over their makeup application so they can still feel like themselves. Some of them just don’t like the idea of someone touching their face and poking at their eyes!

If this sounds like you then you are definitely not alone and you have made the right decision to do your own makeup. You might want to learn a few techniques for the wedding day which will help it look a bit nicer than your everyday makeup and help it to last the whole day! This is where the DIY Bridal Makeup Bootcamp can help. For only £39.99/$39.99 you can learn my secrets to applying bridal makeup while still having control over how your makeup looks. Your new skills will last long after your wedding day and you’ll have the skills and knowledge you need to apply your own makeup for any special event!

Leave me a comment below if you have been thinking about joining the bootcamp and let me know what’s stopping you ❤️

Read on for my TOP 5 tips on how to get your makeup to last all day (come rain 🌧🌪🌤)

I’ve had so many questions about how to get makeup to last longer this week so I wanted to share the 5 things I always do to ensure the my brides makeup looks good all day. Save this post so you can test them out when you do your makeup next.

The important thing to remember before trying to get your makeup to last all day is that there are no quick fixes. If you want your makeup to last, you need to take time to apply it well.

Tip 1: Hydration is Key
Make sure your skin is well hydrated before applying your makeup. This will make it look better and it won’t be absorbed into your skin so quickly. Try a sheet mask a few hours before doing your makeup! It works a treat!

Tip 2: Prime Prime Prime
Eye primer is a MUST as this will stop your eye shadow from creasing! I also like the primer. It really does make the makeup last longer!

Tip 3: Layer your Base
I like to layer the foundation to get a full coverage without it looking heavy! When you enrol in the bootcamp you will find out the exact technique I use! There is also a short video in my IGTV 💯

Tip 4: Set and Set again
Use a translucent powder in your tzone to set the area that gets most shiny though out the day. Finish your makeup with a spritz of all-nighter spray! It works!

Tip 5: Touch Up
Even makeup applied by a pro will need a little touch up after all the emotions, eating and drinking! Pack your translucent powder and dab it on any shiny areas later in the day!

I’m curious, do you already do any of these things? Let me know your thoughts or any other tips you’ve got for us below!

Don't forget to do this on your wedding day 📸 📸

If you're doing your own wedding makeup don't forget to take some pictures that really show off the makeup you have done!

You can take great pictures using your phone and it means you will have them to look at while you wait for your professional pictures to come in. I always take some pictures of my brides using my phone and here is me in action with a beautiful bridesmaid. Follow my tips to below to make sure you get a nice picture of your makeup on the day ❤️
1) Turn of any over head lights as this will cast an unflattering shadow, ruining your lovely makeup!
2) Stand a few meters back from a window, that is streaming with daylight and face towards it with the daylight on your face.
3) make sure whoever is taking the picture is holding the camera at face level. Any pictures taken from below will not be good
4) Take a picture looking straight at the camera, take another looking down at the floor and finally take a third one looking into the distance. This will show off your Contour and highlight and your eye makeup! See the photos above for posing inspiration! 😍

I teach you exactly how to do this in a video tutorial in the DIY Bridal Makeup Bootcamp!

Tell me 2 things you like when you look in the mirror 🌟.... I'll go first!

1) I like my hair... Its always been long and does what's its told. 💁🏼‍♀️
2) I like my eyes. My lashes are black and quite curly so when I add in Mascara they are 💯

It's easy to pick out everything we don't like when we look in the mirror and try to mask these things by changing our hair or applying makeup. How about picking out everything you do like and making the most of those things instead of masking the others!

Like your lips? Make the most of them with your fave lipstick! Like your button nose? Draw attention to it with some highlighter! Love your eye colour? Choose an eye shadow that will make them really stand out!

Remember that makeup isn't about masking your features! When I am doing someone's makeup I like to highlight all their best features and the things they don't like about themselves melt away because the things they do like are taking centre stage! 😍 😍 😍
