Most brides are easily confused about the type of make-up they want for their big day owing to the sea of options available. However, if you are opting for a statement trousseau, then it’s important to keep your bridal make-up look simple and chic, just like Asin did. We love how her make-up, albeit understated made her glow and look like a million bucks! Love the look as much as we do? Here’s how you can get the Asin's bridal reception look in four easy steps.
Step 1: Prep the skin
Apply moisturiser on freshly cleaned and scrubbed skin. Let it seep for 15 minutes post which, choose a foundation which is the closest match to your skin tone. You can also use a primer before the foundation to keep the make-up in place. Conceal any visible blemishes with the use of concealer.
Step 2: Line the eyes
Apply a lavender or light purple hued eye-shadow all over your eye-lids with a flat eye-shadow brush. You can use a darker colour for the creases and blend it in, to avoid harsh lines. Next, using a black liquid liner, draw a thin line along the upper lash line and slightly smudge it. Using a black/brown kohl pencil line the lower lash line and coat the lashes with two coats of voluminising mascara. Use a pearly highlighter on your brow bone as well as in the inner corners of your eyes to highlight it.
Step 3: Highlight those cheekbones
For a natural glow, use a peachy blush on the apple of your cheeks. To highlight the face, apply a shimmer blush or highlighter near the T-zone, cheekbones, above the lips and on the bridge of the nose for a flawless complexion.
Step 4: Make the lips pop
Line the lips with a lip-liner which is the same shade of your lipstick. Now coat the lips with a fuchsia colour lipstick. Finish off with a coat of transparent lip gloss if
you want to go for glossy lips.
