My Take on Bridal Makeup (Version 2: Pinks)

This is the second look for my supposed-to-be-contest-entry for Ms. Jheng's contest last July. I have used the same Nichido eyeshadow palette that I used for the first look (Click on the link to see the first look). =)

 Pinks and browns... Our wedding motif! ^__^

For the lips, I used Cover Girl It’s Your Mauve topped with a pink lip gloss that I can't recall. =D

 Look at the difference! =D

Two-faced! =D

Yup! I only did half of my huge fez (face) again! =D

How I wish I have a really good camera. The colors looked so pretty in real life! Our helper even asked me if I was about to go somewhere special because of my makeup. =D

Gyah! Must.Invest.On.A.Camera.Soon!!!! -__-

In my opinion, pinks, browns and cream shades are perfect for bridal makeup. They help a lot in improving one's features without altering the overall look. Golds also do wonders in brightening a bride's face. =)

What's your favorite bridal makeup combination?

Now I wonder about which look I could have worn on my big day last year if we didn't have an HMUA. o__O

My Take on Bridal Make Up (Version 1: Browns)

Last July, Ms. Jheng of IamBrigitte, hosted a contest in celebration of her birthday. I was supposed to join, but I had a crappy camera. Using a cellphone camera sucks and I really have to invest in a camera soon. 

Jagi... Do you heed my plead? =D

I decided to practice and practice. I told myself that I'd be borrowing my sis-in-law's digicam. Unfortunately for me, she always carried it with her because she needed it at work that time. =(

This is the first of the two versions of my bridal makeup. I played around with my Nichido Eyeshadow palette which I originally bought for my own wedding. I was supposed to do my own makeup on my big day hence the haul I did here. Good thing I was spared the stress and pressure of doing my own makeup when our wedding coordinator told us that we'll be having an HMUA as part of the package. =D

Those were my natural lashes with mascara only. Although I had falsies (the pair I used from my wedding), I didn't have glue. I had to load up on mascara to volumize my lashes. =)

  

I used a brown and cream combo for this look. =)

 

Nude lips added that surreal and innocent touch.

I only did half of my face. =D

 Lookie! My wedding tiara!!! ^__^

If you look closely, my other eye is bigger and brighter than the one without makeup. Ah! The wonders of cosmetics! =D

I loved how the look turned out. Sadly, my smartphone's camera couldn't capture the colors that I used. Anyhoo, its nice that the look turned out to be Au Naturel, perfect for an actual wedding! ^__^

I can't remember the exact products that I used for this look. I could only remember that I used the Nichido eyeshadow palette and the Bobbi Brown Lipstick in Brownie.
