5 make up looks for Summer Weddings
No wedding-day look is complete without the perfect makeup… It's important to consider the style of your dress as the makeup must complement the overall look.
1 Enhancing eyeliner
A feline eyeliner gives a sultry lifted look and feminine feel whilst being effortless. If you are unsure of what to wear for your wedding makeup, opt for a classic line, it always looks modern. It works best simply against a nude eyeshadow swept over the eyelid. Apply eyeliner with eyes open, looking down into a mirror for the ultimate precision and finish the flicks in an upward direction. Keep pointed cotton buds within arms reach for any boo-boos.
2 Something blue…
A rich deep navy eyeliner pressed into the lash line will give depth and focus to your eyes. A navy blue eyeliner will make brown, and hazel eyes look like super rich chocolate and make the whites of the eyes super bright. Eyeliner can be daunting, and the cardinal sin of the liner is not smudging it, leaving you with a harsh edge. Get a cotton bud to trace the shape in a back and forth wiggle motion to create a dazzling haze.
3 Boho gold glitter
This sparkly playful look is effortless to achieve. It beautifully mimics the golden fresh light you get in Spring. Press the glitter onto the eyelid and finish by curling the lashes and coating them in generous layers of mascara
4 Fresh skin
Perfect skin is a key component to any look as it is the majority of the area on the face, so when you get it right, you’ve hit the jackpot. To achieve a radiant skin luminosity like the texture of silk, you want the light to bounce off the skin resulting in health and a glowing face, enhancing that glow from within. Massage the skin when applying skincare to get the blood flowing, complexion to look healthy.

5 Stained soft lips
Infusing colour lifts the complexion and gives an air of romance. Apply a with the fingers and press into the lips to give a soft appearance with a stronger colour in the centre of the lips. Keep the lip line soft and blurred. This is a lived-in look. A cheek stain doubles up as a lip colour. These products go the extra mile.
