Hi all, I'm getting married on Sunday, and I'm still torn between having my makeup done professionally or doing it myself. The first picture is from my makeup trial last week and the second is an engagement picture where I did my own makeup. What do you all think?

    Honestly i feel the makeup artist keep your natural beauty and just enhanced your wondeful features. I would let her do your makeup so you have one less thing to worry about on the big day. Because there are days my makeup turns out fabulous when i do it and on important days I cant get it to act right making me scream.

    I can't really see your makeup in the engagement photo but I would agree with the previous poster: use the professional artist so you can relax and enjoy your day- also, they will be able to make it last longer.

    I like both but the color tones used from the MUA are great for a bride!

    I think it looks good! Since you are getting married so soon, I wouldn't risk using a professional you aren't familiar with and you haven't done a trial with. I'd just make sure you have good primers & setting spray/powders so it lasts all day.

    I think the mua picture has a bit more coverage and the skin is a lot brighter (which is something I would personally want for my wedding day). Plus you already had a trial, so you have some investment in this artist. Also you have your picture from the trial so if you want something a little different you have a reference point “instead of this could you try...” .

    You’re the bride you deserve to be taken care of so you should definitely let your makeup artist do it . You both did a great job but you don’t want to worry about that the day of 😊 happy planning !!

    You are BEAUTIFUL in both pictures! Hiring a makeup artist would just allow you more time to relax and worry about one less thing to do.
