HOW TO; BRIDAL MAKEUP TUTORIAL - Hacks, Tips & Tricks for Beginners!

Hey, what's up you guys? Welcome back. Today I'm going to be doing a very in-depth how-to tutorial on this very classic bridal makeup look. This is a look that I think could work for so many different people because it's not too warm or cool, it's not too dramatic or too natural, it's kind of just somewhere in between of everything. And I feel like right now a lot of us are going to be practicing our bridal looks for our weddings just because of everything going on. And I feel like right now is a really good time to practice, so I hope that my tips and tricks are helpful and that you learned something from this video. I hope you enjoy it. Please subscribe and let's get into it. So before I jump into everything, I do want to mention that I think it's really important that you feel like yourself on your wedding day. So regardless of what I do in this video and tips and tricks that I share with you, if it doesn't make you feel good or doesn't fit your style or doesn't make you feel beautiful or make you feel like yourself, don't do it. Make sure to stay true to you and do whatever is going to make you feel your best. So I am going to use a lot of different products and share a bunch of different tips and tricks so you don't have to do everything either, but I want to show everything just in case you want to know about it. So when you do your makeup, you can do it in any order that you want. I personally like to do my face makeup first just because I know how to set my under eye to make it so that the shadows don't fall down and like ruin my face makeup. But if you prefer to do your eyes first, totally do that. I am going to do my face first today and show you how you can protect your face from fallout if you do get that. So I'm going to start with my face. For my primer today, I'm going to be using the Laura Mercier Pure Canvas Primer in Perfecting. I personally like this one just because it's very universal. There's not a lot to it. I feel like it can work for a lot of different skin types. Applying it here, onto the center of the face, then everywhere else, doesn't really matter. Just get it on your face. So day to day, I actually don't wear foundation. I just do like a tinted SPF and then I spot conceal. I'm considering doing that for my wedding day. Recently, I tried out this foundation and the two times I've worn it, my skin looks incredible in it. So I'm going to use it for this video. It's the Makeup Forever Reboot Foundation. I have the shade Y365. It is just like a healthy looking foundation. It looks like your skin but just a little bit more radiant but not too dewy. If you're an oily skin person, don't be afraid of this foundation when I say radiant. It's beautiful and it's a good medium coverage. So I put a little bit on the back of my hand, one pump. I like to work one pump at a time and then I'm going to grab my favorite brush. You can use a brush, you can use a sponge, you can use your fingers, whatever you prefer. My favorite brush for applying foundation is the It Cosmetics No. 7 brush. I use this side and I just work it into the product and then stipple it on my skin. The motions I start on my cheeks. Make sure to get the jawline, up into the ear, and down the neck. Especially if your hair is going to be up, make sure you have someone that can tell you if there's a line back here where you can see your foundation stop and your skin start. I'm really working the product into the skin. I'm kind of doing push-drag motions. Also don't try out a new foundation on the day of your wedding or even the week before. I would try it out a good month or two in advance. Make sure that you like whatever foundation you're wearing. I get a lot of questions about putting foundation on my nose. I don't like to put a lot of makeup on my nose just because I feel like it doesn't take it very well. It's either really dry, mainly it's really dry just from adding too much product. I do get oily on my nose which is weird. But if I put too much on there it kind of just separates weird. So when I'm blending in my foundation I just make sure there's not much left on my brush and then I lightly go over it. Same with the mustache area. I don't put a glob of foundation on there or anything. I just kind of run it over the area once the foundation brush pretty much doesn't have anything on it. Same with my forehead. I don't put a lot of product on my forehead either. Then for concealer I'm going to be going into the Laura Mercier Flawless Fusion Concealer. I'm in the shade 2W. I'm going to take this right here. With anything in makeup always start with less than you think and then work up to it because you don't want to feel very cakey and thick. So the easiest way to prevent that is just to do less and you can always add more. I'm going to be using the Sigma F03 Cheekbone Highlighter Brush. I like this for my concealer. And then just blend that in. I'm kind of working in a triangle motion. This whole area here is where I'm going to be applying the concealer. I used to contour and highlight my face very heavily and I would take my concealer and draw all those shapes on my face. But that's really going to make your skin or your makeup get really really caked up really fast. Especially if you're getting married in like a warm climate. That's just prone to melt off your face. So what I like to do is use like a cream highlighting product instead that's specifically for that because it's going to be a thinner consistency. If I go and I take this concealer which is meant to like conceal darker areas and put that on other areas just to get that color, it's just a thick formula that's going all over the face. You know what I mean? So I have another product that I'll show you in a little bit that can do the same thing that is meant for that that isn't going to be like a very thick caked up formula. If you have any blemishes on the skin make sure that the concealer that you use on your skin matches perfectly. If you feel like it doesn't you could even before going in with concealer on those areas try just going in with a little bit more foundation and focus it on the area that needs more coverage rather than going in with a different tone of concealer because it's very complicated to match them perfectly. I like my concealer under my eyes just to be like two shades lighter than the rest of my skin. I feel like it's a little bit lighter today just because this foundation is actually a little too dark for me. So I'm going to go in and cream bronze contour my face. The difference between bronzing and contouring has to do a little bit with the colors and the placement. If you're going to be bronzing your skin think about if you went out in the sun and got a little bit of a tan. So for me like if I went out in the sun that would hit my nose, my forehead, the cheeks, kind of give me an all over bronzeness. If you want to contour think of shadows. Think of like how when the sun's out the tree makes a shadow. So that's going to be a more cooler toned shade rather than like a bronzy warm sort of a shade. So contouring is creating shadows on the face so you do it under the cheekbones to make those pop. You do sides of the nose to make that look more chiseled if you want. You could do under here to make this look more chiseled. The sides of the forehead if you want it to look more in or you know it kind of just depends. So you can bronze and contour together. I'm going to be using the Nudestix Bondi Bay Cream Stick for kind of like a mixture of bronzing and contouring. You don't have to use a cream product. I know some people like powders more than creams so if you don't want to do a cream you don't have to. I personally have found because I used to be a strictly powder person I have found that creams just end up looking way better for longer on myself and at the end result it just looks more natural. So I have a second brush for this. This is the same brush as the one I used on my foundation. I just have a second one specifically for contouring and bronzing. It's the It Cosmetics No. 7 and I pick it up on this stick. I don't like to go directly on my face and color this in just because it's hard to blend out once it's on there. So this is going to make it a lot easier to blend. So I'm going to take this and just start stippling on my cheek. I'm going in the bronze area and the contour area because this one I feel like I can use for both. Bring it up on the temples because I like this area to be more in. If you want this to give more angles to your face and have this area look a little wider then keep that brightness there from your foundation but if you don't like that then you can go in with bronzer and concealer or bronzer and contour. Also it's good to get this into your hairline if you are a platinum blonde and your hair is fresh. Which let's be real, all of us platinum blondes do not have fresh hair right now but when it is fresh it's very difficult because you end up coloring your hair. Okay I'm going to bring this on the jaw line and bring this up a little bit just so that I don't have a straight up line. The other thing too, I feel like if anyone's going to notice it, ew. Ew on them. Who's going to be picking apart? First of all, someone in general, but the bride? Rude. Maybe you want a harsh jaw line with a line, you know? I am going to bring this on the sides of my nose. Everyone contours their nose a different way. Don't feel like you have to contour your nose if you're like, what? People contour their nose? It's a personal thing, personal preference. I do it just a little bit. Everyone's nose is different so it's going to be contoured a little bit different so I'm just going to go right here, right here and I'm going to use my finger to blend it in just because my fingers, my hands are really warm right now so it can melt the product into my skin. If my hands were cold it would not work as well. So now I'm going to cream highlight my face. Again you can choose between cream and powder, either or, I will be doing both for everything. So pick and choose or you can do both if you want, up to you. On my wedding day I'm probably going to do creams and do just a touch of powder contour. I'm going to use the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter, I'm in shade number two. You need the tiniest amount because it's such a thin formula that it distributes everywhere with like one brush stroke. So I'm going to pop it on the high points of my face, so that's the top of my cheekbone, center of the nose, top of my cupid's bow and if you have more dry skin you could do this, but you could do your chin and the forehead. I'm not just because I do get oily, so I'm going to reframe from doing that because it's just going to add to it looking greasy later. I'm going to be using a Smith's 103 brush to blend this in and if there's too much you can go in with your foundation brush and stipple over it to diffuse it, bringing it to here and then connecting it into my brow, kind of like a little V or a C. I actually use three different powders on my face, don't even feel like you need to do that. I am just picky in particular, I'm going to share them with you. You guys, if you watch my videos you already know what they are. I'm going to do them just because this is what I would do on my wedding day. You don't need five million powders to set your face. For the under eye area, I like the H104 powder from Makeup Forever, it's this one here. I add a little tiny bit of this yellowy shade in. I like to use the F35 brush from Sigma. Look upwards or put my chin down and look up and just set the under eye. It's going to set it so that the concealer doesn't crease and that way also when you do your eye shadow, you have powder there so that if you do get any fallout, you can just wipe it away. For the areas where I get very, very oily, I like to go in with the Laura Mercier Translucent Setting Powder. This I like for the areas that I get really oily because even though this is a loose powder, it is a thicker formula and it is very mattifying. I like this on the sides of my nose, center of my forehead, brows and chin because I turn into a grease ball in those areas. Stir it here in the cap and I just set the sides of the nose and kind of like this area here where like pores are right in there. Concentrate it in between my eyebrows, lightly on the center of the forehead and my chin. I like to set the rest of the face just so that it's not creamy feeling to the touch. I like to kind of seal it in with a lightweight powder and even though I do get oily, I like to feel hydrated. The reason why I don't go in with this all over my face is because I feel like it then just like mattifies all the areas that I like had glow and it kind of changes the way that the foundation looks on your face in my opinion. So I like to go in with the By Terry Hyaluronic Tinted Hydra Powder. I'm in the shade 200 Natural. I'm just going to go in with a fluffy brush. This is the one that actually is like designed for this powder. This is by By Terry. Blend it in and then lightly just set the rest of my face. And then for powder contour, this is something I would probably do just because I do like a more dramatic contour. I'm going to go back into those powders from Makeup Forever and go into S116. This is a very cool tone color. I used to go crazy with this but you don't want it to look like you have like mud on your face. This is very cool tone so it can look that way. My favorite brush for this is the Smith 112. It's a tulip shaped brush. I'm going to take this right where I want a little bit of shadow. So right in this area and I'm not going to take it too crazy far in. You can if you want a more dramatic contour. You can bring it in closer here but if you do that it is going to look a little bit more masculine. I personally like that on myself. Up to you. If you want it to be more natural, keep it back here by your ear and you're going to do the angle of the corner of your lip to the top of your ear. That's the angle you want to stick with or you can kind of like see where your cheekbones are and just again hold far back and just kind of rock it. You can rock back and forth or do like oval circles. Like a like a really flat oval kind of shape. Then I like to flick it upwards just so I don't have like a line. I'm going to take a little bit on the sides of my forehead and I'm going to take a little bit of that and do the jawline. So if you wanted to do a powder highlight, I'm going to show you what I would do. When I'm using the cream highlight, I won't use a powder highlight just because I love the finish of this. I love how that just like bounces on the skin. But if you do want to use powder, my other favorite is also from Charlotte Tilbury. I just feel like Charlotte Tilbury has a lot of just gorgeous products. They just look very naturally beautiful on the skin. Both the bronzer and the highlighter in here are gorgeous, but the highlighter specifically just looks really, really natural on the skin. And they do have two colors in this, I believe. And I like to apply powder highlight before I apply blush just because I feel like it will peek out throughout the blush. Rather than putting the blush on and then the highlighter, sometimes it can be hard to blend that out and you have like a highlighter stripe. I'm going to be using an F35 brush from Sigma to apply this. And just to get it on the tip, you can just apply it right where we did the cream. Again, if you did the cream, you don't have to do the powder. And I probably wouldn't, honestly, because I just love that cream one so much. And then connect it into the brow. This to me is a little bit more dramatic than the cream one that I used. Or I guess it's a liquid, not a cream. It's a liquid, but whatever. Yeah, it is a little bit more dramatic than that one. But also, it's not as dramatic as a lot of the highlighters that are out there right now. So for me, blush is very important. I feel like when I put on the right blush, I feel like it can really complement the eyes, really complement the look as a whole, and really just like... So for my face, I really like to do either a bronzier kind of a blush or a peachy-toned blush. So I think what I'm going to do is use MAC Peaches blush right here. I have it here in just like a little palette. So I go right in between the highlighter and the contour, kind of like where I put that bronzer. Hold pretty far back on the brush and just sweep it, starting about right here, moving it backwards. I don't like to put a ton here on the apples just because that's a very rounded effect. If you like that, go for it. A lot of people really love that look of like an apple-y cheek. I don't because I feel like it makes my cheeks look bigger and I like to look more angular. So I'm going to start here, do little soft circles, pushing it back, almost flicking it into the hairline. I'm not putting a lot of product back here. I'm just kind of flicking it into that area. If you ever feel like you go too crazy with blush, you can go over it with just like a little bit of whatever's left over on your powder brushes. But also if you feel like you went crazy, don't worry if that's the first thing to fade on your face. So don't worry by the time you're done with the rest of your makeup, it's probably going to be faded away. Whatever's left over on my brush, I like to take a little bit of this everywhere else on my face. So I go a little bit up here on the forehead, kind of just makes it look all tied together, a little bit on the nose, the chin, a little bit on the chest. I just think it kind of ties everything together, balances out the shades and it looks very yeah. So before I do the eyes, I do want to set my face. This is the Morphe Continuing Setting Mist. One of the things I like about this too is the mist is like an aerosol. So it sprays like instead of like, and make sure when you spray it, you're not like really up close. You want to be pretty far away and just let it lightly mist your face. So I'm going to let that kind of settle down and dry and then we can move on to the eyebrows. So this is all very personal. I'm not going to focus too much on this because kind of like the nose contour, we all have different brows, different noses. I'm just going to kind of breeze through this, show you how I do it and the products that I use and like. So I like the Precisely My Brow Pencil from Benefit. I use shade number three. Push the hairs up and then I just fill it in the sparse areas and kind of just like create the overall shape that I like. Again with everything, hold far back on your brush. I also find that it's easier to do your brows when you're looking downwards into your mirror instead of straight on. Just for me personally, I feel like I can see the brow hairs and the brow shape better that way. Having a handheld mirror and then also a mirror that's like straight on and bigger and a little further away kind of helps because then you can get really up close with what you're doing but you also want to check in and make sure it looks good from far away too. Always go through and blend it out with the spoolie. Again, not too much pressure. If you put too much pressure, it can take the product off. Now I'm going to set them with the Benefit Gimme Brow. I like this because this makes it look like brow hairs and then they look a little bit fluffier. I have the shade number three in this as well. For eyeshadow, you definitely want to prime them. So you can do this a few different ways. You can use an actual eye primer that's like comes in kind of like a tube like this. You can use that. Just make sure you use a tiny bit. Rub it in and set it with powder. I like to use those Make Up For Ever powders to set them just because if you go in with a primer and you don't set it, then the eyeshadow that you put on, that's a powder. It's going to gravitate towards the first spot that you put it on because it's kind of like a wet sticky base and then it's going to be really pigmented in that one spot and when you try to blend it out, it's like you're not going to be able to and you'll be like, what's the point in this primer? So make sure you set it very lightly. You don't want to go in with like an eyeshadow to set all over because then the other colors you put on won't be as pigmented. So you can use an actual primer. You can use your concealer if you like that. For me, concealer will crease on my eyes. The thing that I like the most is the Painterly Paint Pot from MAC. It's a Pro Longwear Paint Pot. It's just like a cream base. It's not actually technically a primer, but a lot of people use it as a primer and it works really well. Painterly is the one that I like because it matches my skin tone the best. Soft Ochre is a little bit more yellow, so if you don't have as much pink in your skin, you could go for that. They also have some deeper shades as well. So I just go straight in with my finger and start pushing it. I'm doing push drag motions. Getting on the lid, the crease, up on the brow bone. Don't touch your brow. Tilting my head so I can get into that inner area there and set it into place. This is when I also go in with the powder and reemphasize the under eye and make sure that is all nice and powdered and ready just in case you get any fallout. So for eyeshadow, I'm going to be using the Tarte Maneater Palette. I think this is a really great bridal makeup palette. This look today is going to go very neutral. Not too warm, not too cool. If you want a warm toned look or a cool toned look, bronze look, whatever, let me know. I can make this a series and share them all with you. I do think that the brushes that you use are more important than the eyeshadow that you use. I think you can be using one of the not so best eyeshadows. What is in my eye? And you could make it work if you have a really good brush. So I have a few brushes here that I'm going to be using. You don't have to use a million brushes. You could easily just do this with two, but I'm going to go through all of the links that you can do to get a certain look. If you want something that's going to be quick and easy, let me know. I can also do that. Okay. Anyways, I'm going to go into Purr, which is the center color. And I'm going to be using a Smith 232. This is my biggest fluffiest brush. And I'm going to take this on the tip of it, tap off the excess. And when I apply this, I'm going to take my mirror and bring it down or put my chin up. Hold the brush really far back on it. Again, you don't want to apply too much pressure, too much product. You want to do light layers and build up if you need to. So I'm going to look down that way you can see your lid better. You can see even at this angle that the camera's at that when I'm looking straight, my eye opens up more. So it's going to fold and I'm not going to see as much. If you have hooded eyes, this is different. You want to do that. Hooded eyes, when you open them, you can't actually see your lid anymore. This is just for more non-hooded eyes. I get a lot of questions about doing hooded eye tutorials. It's very hard for me to do that because my eyes aren't totally hooded. So for me to share the tips and tricks, it'd be like impossible for me to show you. But just keep that in mind. So hold back on your brush. Look down into your mirror so that this whole area opens up. Start on the outer corner because wherever you put your brush first is where the most pigment is going to be. You can do circles or you can do windshield wiper motions. I kind of do a mixture. And so as I'm working towards the nose or like the inner corner of my eye, I'm doing circles towards that area. You know what I mean? And then when I get to the inner corner and I'm going to work the opposite direction towards the outer part of the eye, I'm going to do circles that go in that direction. So as I move back this way, I'm going to do circles that go that way. So if I was moving towards the inner corner of my eye, I wouldn't be doing backwards circles because it's going to be really tricky to move that way. Just remember in the direction that you're moving, move your circles in that direction as well. Towards the inner corner, towards the outer corner. You can also very lightly do the windshield wiper. And then I like to take that same color. Bring your mirror now above you and look up into it or put your chin down. Hold far back and lightly carry this underneath. Get this really up into your eye and by looking up this way, it's going to make it so that you don't irritate your eyes that much. And right now I'm just kind of sweeping, wiggling it. Don't be afraid to put this color there and kind of connect it into the lid color. Now I'm just going to build the color. So I'm just taking that same pearl shade and just pushing it like this, pushing. You can see how I've grabbed closer here because I want more color. See how that's way more pigmented than when we were like lightly putting it in and holding further back and adding more color. You can push, you can push drags. And say you have like, see, I can see I have like a harsher line right there. Once you have a lot of the product off your brush, you can lightly go over that and try to diffuse it. But don't do it when you right away have that color on your brush because then it's going to just add more color higher up, higher up. And then before you know it, you've got eyeshadow up to your eyebrows. So just make sure the brush is pretty much clean and then you can go in and just kind of like diffuse that line. Now, very random. You're probably gonna be like, what? But I'm going to take my blush that I use on my cheeks, that peaches color. And I'm just gonna kind of halo that very lightly into the crease and it will kind of like peek throughout the shades that we are about to add. So hold really far back and lightly rock this into the crease. It just kind of like ties it all together. And it doesn't have to be this peaches color. It could be like whatever blush you used. Just pop that in the crease. This is the Smith 232 that I used. And now I'm going to use a Ruffer number 13 brush. It's a lot smaller and it's a little bit, I guess it's about the same denseness. You can see they kind of like move the same, but this is a lot smaller and more precise. I'm going to go into Saucy, which is this very warm brown caramel-y shade. I'm just going to push this on that outer lid right here. Just pushing, pushing it in, distributing the color. But don't put too much product right there in the crease because it's going to be difficult to blend out. Put it mainly down by the lash line and then kind of move your way up. Once a lot of the product is off, you can kind of flick it towards the inner part. And flick the outer edges, put it on the tip, look up and very lightly get that lower lash line, like very lightly. That might be a little much actually. You can always go in with like a clean brush and try to diffuse it. And now I'm going to go into an even more precise brush. I'm going to use a Raver number three brush. It's a very pointy one. You can see the difference between the one I was just using. This one's more flexible and this one's going to be more dense. Just a touch into the midnight shade here and line this right on the upper lash line on the outer corner. Just right here and kind of carry it over because this is going to kind of help to hide the lashes we put on and it's going to give you a nice soft liner look. Also, if you don't like applying eyeliner or if it's like difficult, I feel like you can't get a straight line or it seems intimidating. This is a great way that you can do it. It's very easy. You just kind of put it on there and then you can even just blend it out with your finger because having just like that soft diffused liner is so pretty. It's so romantic. I'm actually going to mix a little bit of the saucy in with this color and kind of start flicking it up into the look. And I'm flicking it right here into the outer part, not over here. See how this is very blank? I'm just kind of flicking out here. With my finger, I'm going to go into Passion which is this like matte creamy kind of a color and I'm just going to tap this right here on the inner part of the lid just to kind of brighten it up and then go in with the first brush and just diffuse that. So I'm not much of a fan for shimmer or glitter on myself. I mean, I do it from time to time but I keep going back and forth between if I would just leave my look like this and just leave the lid matte or adding like a shimmer. So I think what I'm going to do today is just with my finger, go into Foxy and very lightly apply this on the lid and just tap it right here. If you want this to go on more pigmented, you could swipe or you could grab a brush and spray it with some like setting spray or like a Fix Plus from MAC to make it more pigmented. I'm going to add Lace from the palette. This is just a Sigma LO4 brush and just pop this here on the inner corner. It really brightens up the eyes. If this is too shimmery, you can mix it with the Passion shade to make it a little bit less shimmery and a little bit more natural. You could also use the highlighters that you used on your face and highlight with that instead. I am going to use the Passion shade to highlight my brow and mix in a little bit of Lace, not much because I don't want this crazy shimmery up here. I just want it very, very soft. I feel like it's a good idea to give yourself a lot of time to do your makeup. However, I find when I spend too much time on my makeup, it ends up doing more harm than good because I end up being like tweaking so many things that would have been totally fine. And then I start to get oilier and then it's like I'm adding more powder, more than I should. And yeah, I don't know. I feel like even now, I'm taking a long time to explain things, so I'm finding things that I need to fix and I'm like, oh my gosh, this wouldn't happen if I just did my makeup. So yeah. For the waterline of your eyes, you can do whatever you want. You could fill it in with a dark color if that's what you normally do. You could do a bright color, which is what I normally do. You could leave it as is. It looks great like this. I'm actually gonna be using the, where did it go? Rimmel Nude Scandalized Liner just to open them up. Just know that if you put anything like a nude in there, it's gonna open up the eye and brighten it. If you do a white, it's gonna make it look very open, kind of like a doll. And then if you do a darker color, it's going to kind of close the eye and make it a lot more smoky. I'm gonna pop this into my waterline. For lashes, again, personal preference. You don't have to wear false lashes. You could just do mascara or you could do like a full strip lash. You could do individuals. It's totally up to you. So today I'm gonna be using the Maneater Mascara from Tarte. I've really been liking this and just give myself a nice good coat of mascara. And then for false lashes, I'm actually gonna be using some individuals. I feel like for a bridal look, individuals are gonna look the most natural. I didn't have any here because I don't normally use individuals. So I don't order these on Amazon. So I've never actually tried these before. These are the Kiss Medium Eye Envy Lashes. They look like this. If you're looking for a good strip lash, I think the Ardell Wispies and Demi Wispies are amazing classic strip lashes. And then for me on my wedding, I'm either gonna do individuals like this or I'm gonna use the Velour Serendipity Lashes because those are like a beautiful classic bridal style, not too much going on. But the cool thing with individuals is you can really customize it to how you prefer your lashes to look. You can do a very like subtle lash. You can make them very bold. It's totally up to you. So the glue that I love is the Duo Dark Tone Glue. It dries like a dark black. Yeah, I'm just going to put a little dollop of this on my tray, let it kind of like coagulate a little bit and get thicker. And then I'll just dunk each individual lash in there with my tweezers, let it get a little tacky on the lash and then pop it on. The downside of doing individual lashes is that it is tedious and thick and takes a really long time. Okay, so that took 20 years. Moving on to the lips, I wanna make sure that you have a sharpener because whatever lip pencil you wanna use, you wanna make sure that it is very sharp so that you can get a precise line. I'm gonna be using the KKW Beauty Nude 0.5 Lip Pencil. This is one of my favorite nude lip pencils ever. I'm gonna start by lining the lips and over lining just a little bit. So I over line my cupid's bow. I over line right here, only that area. The rest is right on my direct lip line. Use the entirety of your pencil by the way, lay it flat against the lip and it will be a lot easier to get a straight line. So don't go at it with the point, go at it on an angle. It'll also cover more surface area and kind of like do the work for you. And then I'm gonna fill it in completely, lay it on a side. This will ensure that your lip lasts like forever, I swear. Once you put on the lipstick, it's just gonna kind of like lock in place. Having the lip pencil filled in completely on your lips, it feels a little drying but it's not gonna get all crusty, dusty like a liquid lipstick will. It's gonna feel really comfortable on the lips, lasts forever through eating, drinking, talking and when it wears off, you're not gonna have like a lip line. It's just gonna wear off naturally and look beautiful even when it's wearing off. Also, if you are wearing a lip balm at any time, make sure you completely wipe it off before you go in with product because it's gonna make it not last as long. It's gonna be kind of like too soft for this to go on top of and it's gonna bleed. It's gonna make the product bleed. So make sure if you have lip balm on or lip gloss or whatever that it's completely wiped off before you go in with anything else. And then I'm gonna go in with KKW Beauty Nude 2. This is a deeper lip pencil. It's going to kind of like deepen up the lip in certain areas and make it look a little bit poutier. And then for my favorite lipstick of all time, I'm gonna go into the First Time Lipstick from Tom Ford. Again, just use whatever works for you, what your favorite lipstick is. It doesn't have to be any of these lip products, any of the makeup that I used at all today. Just use what your favorites are. I just was using my favorites because that's what I'm gonna use. And then I'm not really much of a gloss girl. I prefer a more comfortable creamy matte lip, but I do think that a gloss is a little bit more timeless or even just like a more sheeny lipstick. So you could leave it as is. I'm actually going to add a gloss. I never thought I'd say that, but I think it really kind of ties it together and makes it look really timeless. So I'm gonna be using the Baby Doll Lip Gloss from Laura Mercier. And I'm only gonna apply a little bit, not too much. You don't want them like super glossy. One last trick, go like this. You'll get the like inner rim off of your lips so you don't get crap all over your teeth all day. But this is the final look. I don't know how these lashes look. I feel like I probably could have smoked up the lash line just a little bit more so that it could hide these lashes, but this is the final look. So you can see it up close. What do you guys think? I feel like this is just a very classic bridal look. Would work for anybody. It's not too warm. It's not too cool. It's not too orangey, not too rosy. It's just kind of like right there in between. I think this would be the most flattering on a wide range of people. If you want something different and very specific, let me know below.
