Makeup trial

Lorraine, on December 11, 2020 at 2:42 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 19
Hi everyone! I just had my hair and makeup trial and I don’t know how I feel. I hardly ever wear makeup and I’m having a hard time with how heavy it seems. I know wedding makeup is generally heavier for photos but I don’t like how it looks in person. In pictures I think it’s okay. Does anyone have any before/after photos to share or their experience? Thank you! Makeup trial 1

    I think it looks great and not too heavy at all! When you aren't used to wearing much makeup, it can feel overwhelming. But you look beautiful!

    I agree with Meghan, and I think you look stunning! Are you wearing fake lashes with the makeup? Sometimes they can make you feel like you have a lot more makeup on than you really do.

    I'm not a fan of makeup unless I'm covering a scar or pimple. I'm opting out of it for wedding day.

    I honestly think it looks great, not too much at all! It probably seems like a ton because you said you don’t wear makeup often. But you of course want to feel comfortable and beautiful on your wedding day, so if this amount of makeup doesn’t make you feel that way talk to your makeup artist and see how you guys can work together to make it a little lighter!

    I think your makeup looks really pretty! It adds a pop of color.

    It looks great! Most wedding makeup I've seen online and in person doesn't look like the bride is wearing anything even though you can feel the products. But you can go as simple or glam as you wish.

    You look beautiful. I felt the same way when I got my make up done for our engagement shoot. I'm not big on make up either.

    I think you look beautiful!! Smiley heart It's still a relatively natural makeup look, it's just shocking how much makeup you need for it to stay put all day and to help your features pop in pictures!

    I did airbrush foundation which is definitely way more makeup than I'm used to, but once you put on your wedding dress and accessories it all balances out!

    It looks great!! Not heavy, but enough for photos to give some “glow!” But it is up to you, if you feel it’s a bit too much, tell her to tone it down just a bit.

    I love it. But I think a light lip color will tone it down and not fake lashes do regular mascara. Bronzer instead of contour.

    You look absolutely beautiful! It’s not too heavy but it can feel like it if you’re not used to it.

    Agree with the others - you look gorgeous! The makeup truly does not overwhelm you and brings out your features.

    I did a much heavier look. For my engagement photos, up top is the inspo, then from L-R -- selfie, then two actual professional photos.
