My 1st Makeup Trial with pics

Okay girls, I had my first makeup trial yesterday. I am unsure about how I feel about it. I am smiling in all the pics to get the idea of what it would look like on my wedding day, when I presumably will be smiling nonstop. And also so that you girls didn't have to look at a not-smiling face. :) Anyhow, I do not wear liquid/creme foundation - I wear bare minerals - so I felt there was way too much stuff on my skin. It doesn't show in the pics, but I looked too pink in real life. I will wear BM foundation on my wedding day and a little fdn where I need it. And I like the eyes - but I feel like there needs to be MORE shadow, more shading, more drama, less macara and less underneath the eye. I don't wear any eyeliner on the bottom, just the top, and I want to play that up more. Maybe some sparkle??? Overall, I feel that I look too much like I always do, and I want a more dramatic, sparkly, beautiful version of my every day look on my wedding day.

What do you guys think??

I really think you look so pretty. I would maybe, if you want, go a little more dramatic with the eyes, but not much. IMO a bride looks best more natural! You are very pretty...you are going to look beautiful on your wedding day!!

I had it up because that is most likely how I will wear it on my wedding day .. but i did like the way the makeup looked a lot more with it down!! It looked too polished, too elegant up. I want to look elegant but I don't want to look like a 50s movie star, you know??

Awww, thank you!!!! That's kinda how I feel about the eyes - just something a little extra to make them look a little more different than I always do them.

Re: My 1st Makeup Trial with pics

i think it looks really good!!! maybe day of, i would say just ask to have them do the eyes up a bit more, just a little more dramatic if you want to be a little more glam for day of.

Hey Date/Hall/Room twin! I think your make up looks beautiful!!! I can understand what you are saying about wanting to look different than you always do though. Maybe you are right some sparkle will look nice! I love your hair down too!

I love the way your makeup came out. Its just enough so you dont look like you have 10lbs of gunk on your face.

Re: My 1st Makeup Trial with pics

you look beautiful!

I would agree go darker on the shadow. Show off those eyes more. I would keep the mascara and liner but darker on the shadow and bit more lipstick too. You have great skin!

btw who was this trial with?
