YOUR ULTIMATE
LIP COMBO
Wedding makeup is designed to be longer-lasting, more photogenic, and withstand emotions, lighting, and all-day wear. It often involves high-performance, waterproof, and HD-friendly products to ensure a flawless, radiant look from “I do” to the last dance.
Unlike everyday makeup, it’s also tailored to complement the dress, venue, and overall wedding aesthetic.
Popular styles include:
💖 Natural & Glowy – Fresh, radiant, “your skin but better” with soft dewy finishes.
💄 Classic & Timeless – Think neutral eyes, defined lashes, and a soft or bold lip.
✨ Soft Glam – A balance of elegance and subtle drama with soft smoky eyes and flawless skin.
🌟 Full Glam – Bold eyes, sculpted contour, and a statement lip for a red-carpet bridal look.
👰 Romantic – Soft pinks, peaches, and delicate shimmer for a dreamy, ethereal glow.
✔ Your wedding theme & dress – Classic, modern, boho, or vintage?
✔ Your skin type & features – Matte or dewy? Soft or bold?
✔ How much makeup you usually wear – You should still feel like YOU!
✔ Trial runs – Book a makeup trial to test different looks and see what photographs best.
Yes! Flawless makeup starts with great skin prep. Hydrated, well-prepped skin helps makeup apply smoothly and last longer. Start weeks before with a consistent skincare routine.
On the day, use:
- Hydrating skincare (like MAC Hyper Real Serumizer™) for a plump base.
- Primer (such as MAC Studio Radiance Primer for glow or Studio Fix Mattifine for oil control).
Bridal makeup is typically done 2-3 hours before the ceremony, allowing time for touch-ups and setting. If photos are taken beforehand, schedule accordingly. Don’t forget to factor in hair styling and getting dressed!
Start with skin prep – Hydrated, primed skin holds makeup better.
✔ Use long-wearing formulas – MAC Studio Fix Fluid SPF 15 foundation is a bridal go-to.
✔ Set with powder & setting spray – Lock it in with MAC Prep + Prime Fix+ Stay Over.
✔ Waterproof everything! – Lashes, eyeliner, and even brows (hello, happy tears!).
✔ Keep a touch-up kit – Blotting papers, lipstick, and setting spray for quick fixes.
