We understand that you may be a little nervous of doing your own makeup as those pre-wedding pictures will be staying live for the rest of your lives. But don’t worry, we are here to help you out so that you don’t have to spend those extra bucks on the makeup artist.

We assure you that with these 10 steps of DIY makeup videos you will rock your makeup look for all your functions!

1. Prep your canvas:

All skin types should use an oil-free lotion for a dewy and non-shiny finish! After that being done, tap on some primer! It’ll blur all the deep pores and help you to apply your makeup evenly. It also ensures that the makeup lasts longer.

2. Start with foundation:

A solid foundation ensures that your bridal makeup will stand the test of time (and a night of celebrations!).

3. Conceal those spots:

There are some spots that a full-coverage foundation can’t cover, and you will have to use a concealer to do the dirty work.

4. Brush on some powder:

Dust your T-zone with a translucent powder to absorb the extra oil, keeping the rest bare, for a fresh-faced glow.

5. Ease into the eyes with a liner:

The beauty of classic dark liner? It looks great on everyone and defines a captivating gaze that is prominent in all the bridal shots!
