Your Make-up Style

[BrideInCuffs21]

So this November I am going to Chicago for a weekend of shopping!!! Since I get most of my favorite make-up there... How are you ladies or are did you ladies have/planning on wearing your make-up for the big day???

I know when I first met my FH I was a makeup freak loved eye shadow the most. Now the only time I get girlied up is if I am going out to the bar with the girls. I think on the big day I am going to go with nudes and barely there pinks for eye shadow and natural soft complexion.... my favorite eyeshadows are from Urban Decay and can be found on sephora.com. For lipstick will probably be a sheer gloss... not a big fan of red or pink lips... just natural...

I want my makeup the same as I usually wear it, nothing crazy. I want to be able to recognize myself in the photos!

I always wear shimmery brown eye shadow, black eyeliner and mascara sparingly, and lip balm or gloss. I'm not a fan of lipstick either. (On myself anyways.)

[neebelung]

My day to day makeup is very minimal... tinted moisturizer (Neutrogena), a smudge of eyeshadow or pencil, a swat of mascara, and tinted lip balm (Neutrogena or Burt's Bees).

For the wedding, since it'll still be warm here, and we'll be outdoors, I want to keep things light and luminous.... maybe a bit more color on my lips and an extra coat of mascara, but nothing extreme. I want to look like ME.

I want to be dolled up a bit more than I am every day. I think I'm gonna go with more shimmering eye shadows and do a lil bit of a smokey look and wear lipstick...which I never do. I'm a lip gloss girl.

I never wear makeup so I don't have any clue. I am going to go minimal. I think my bridesmaids and I are going to go to the mac counter at Macy's. A friend of mine did that and all they had to do was purchase two items. I can get appointments the morning of.

[Measha]

I'm fairly unsure on this myself. I don't even wear make-up day to day or to work. When I do it's sparingly: mascara, blush, eye shadow, lipgloss. Hmm I could always talk to my FMIL, she used to sell Mary Kay *grin*

Foundation is just too bad on my skin :( I might get my hands on some Bare Minerals products again, LOVE those!

[Nekochanpurr]

Haha, no clue.. I don't wear makeup! XD The only thing i really wear is nail polish.. And i wait till those suckers are on sale for $2 or lower! Heh. I have no clue what to do for my wedding, though.. O.o; Kind of scary..

[heatherh321]

I wear makeup every day so I am not sure what to do to make it different......I feel like I already wear it how it looks best on me. I love mineral foundation, and the MK skincare line (including microdermabrasion several times a week) has really made a difference in my skin in the past few months in prep for the BIG DAY.

[Smashingpennies]

I very rarely wear makeup, I usually were it to chuch (if I have time) when we go out on a date or special ocassions. When I do wear makeup, it is usually very natrual looking. I did it tad bit darker for my wedding as I wanted to look nice for the pictures. I had to do my make up all over again because I had cried it all off before I even made it to the cerimony, DH and I got lost going to the location. It was rather funny I was all calm and trying to calm him down as he was VERY UPSET, and then when we finally did get to the location I was the one that was upset and he was calm. I went through a whole box of tissues by the time I was done being upset. Thank goodness the wet, cold paper towls helped with the puffy eyes.

[StJohnBride]

I always wear foundation, mascara, blush, eyeliner. Eyeshadow when I have time, and lipstick if I feel like it. Generally I'm a chapstick girl.

[PGDesigns]

Call me vain, but I hardly ever go anywhere without make-up. I use foundation, blush, eyeshadow, eyeliner, mascara, and lip balm...I usually don't wear lipstick.

On my big day, I plan on wearing a tiny bit more than usual, but nothing drastic.

[Joe's girl]

im going for the christina aguilara 40's new look. Doe eyes and red lips, even the hairstyle. http://images.askmen.com/galleries/singer/christina-aguilera/pictures/christina-aguilera-picture-6.jpg

[EarlyBird]

i am doing my makeup very different bc i want it to be dramatic.
Im having airbrush.

[delilah]

I'm going with a liquid lined eye, pale slightly frosted shadow with a light grey crease and a few false eyelashes in the outer corners. I'm think more of a warm colored blush and a darker coralish red lip.

We are doing sort of a 40's vintage theme, so I'm hoping my makeup will be a little more pin-up than I would usually wear.

[JennaCanada]

I want to look smokin hot and glamourous! Smokey eyes with falsh lashes and glossy lips-think Eva Longoria or Carmen Electra!

[Qtlilone22]

I want my makeup to be simple and natural but still look like I have make up. I need to find a makeup artist! Anyone know of any good ones in the Miami are.

Cristy, you should have Ann Margaret do your makeup. Ask her to show you the photos of people whose makeup she has done. She has a portfolio book.

As for my makeup.... I am a makeup snob, won't leave the house without it. My usual routine is: foundation, powder, eyeliner, mascara, blush and lipgloss/lipstick, when I'm not in a rush eyeshadow. I will be doing my own makeup for the wedding (I actually took clases toward being a makeup artist... I'm just to lazy to make it happen). For the wedding I'm not sure exactly what I'll do yet, but probably similar to my usual style.

[vicky_vicky]

I like doing my make up every day, I dont use foundation, I use eye shadow, black contour kohl eye pencil, mascara, blusher, and a shiny lip gloss in a natural rose tone usually. Mostly I play through different eye shadows and lip gloss colours.

For my wedding day though I want a pro to do my make up, and I want to keep it natural but flattering.

[RosieAngel]

My "makeup" bag consists of sunscreen and lipgloss. I think I'm going to be hitting the Clinique counter and asking the makeup girls for advice!

Their "Almost Makeup" foundation is awesome. Make sure to try it, since you don't seem to use much makeup

[L.J.Aguirre]

i wanted a dark look..... dark liner and dark shadowing with a lil bit of highlighting to bring out the eyebrows. my inspiration was actually myself in this picture

[dawsmi]

I wore my makeup as natural as I could with brown eyeshadow and mascara and all!! I wanted something that would make my eyes stand out a little but still look natural!! It turned out really well!!

[lucas'sfuturewifey]

I always do very dramatic eyes. Smoky eyes with liquid black eyeliner on top with "wings" and black pencil liner on the bottom, 2 coats of mascara, and I curl my lashes because they're crazy long. I use liquid foundation if I have any blemishes and just pat it on the actual blemish with my index finger instead of using it all over my face to steer clear of looking like I have it on. Then I dust on my physicians formula mineral loose powder, slick on some Very Sexy lip plumper, swipe some bronzer on my cheekbones and forehead if I'm looking a little pale and I'm good to go. Sounds like it takes forever, but usually only 5-10 minutes. All I'll be changing for the wedding is investing in some REALLY waterproof mascara. lol

[Brianne1114]

I'm a makeup hoor! I never walk out of the house without any on, full face, and I have more than your average girl needs in a lifetime. It's an addiction, really. I do a different look almost every day. I usually play up my eyes, and will likely do the same for the wedding. I'm thinking glam slightly smokey eyes, flushed cheeks & rosy lips with glowing skin.

[grapefruit]

One time I got my makeup professionally done and she made my eyes feel stretched out and I felt so overdone- it was a lot of blush, my face looked a lot tanner, gold dust everywhere, smoky, wing tipped eyes, and pointy eyebrows- or so it seemed. LAWL... I was running late for my bf's company christmas party and when we arrived there, it turned out that I was overdone- makeupwise. LOL

So I guess I'm not suited for the vixen look. Sometimes, I'm too lazy to put on any makeup but when I do, I use liquid eyeliner, lipgloss, shimmer and blush. for my wedding, I want to get my makeup done professionally but a fresher- look. I want to look like a bud about to blossom lololol.

[ShannonKay]

I don't wear much makeup daily, I'm a big lipgloss girl and I love mascara but usually it's just that and moisturizer. I don't do full face very often.

However, I used to be a theatre major and I think that if you're on stage or being photographed, you need makeup! I really want to do airbrush makeup. It's supposed to look really good in pictures. Other than that, fairly natural looking just a little more than usual kind of thing. Actually, I'm a little confused about why the men don't wear makeup for pictures and stuff. But I'm sure that's my inner theatre major talking.
