The "Natural" Looks
I love the soft smoky eyes here, soft pink/nude lips, and glowy cheeks -a little less "glow" than Hayden's though. This look reminds me of that hot "girl next door" vibe and I think it will be great with our wedding (a classy, backyard event). With the help of some major faux lashes, I'll be made-up emough to be stand out. Also, this is a great look that will still be beautiful in 10, 15, 50 years from now.
The "Glam" Files
Darker smoky eyes, va-va-voom lashes, darkened eyebrows, pink cheeks and lips.
This is what I'm leaning more towards, I feel like this is more "me". I'm wearing my hair down (see this post from last week) and wearing pageant-worthy jewelry and I don't want my make-up to take a backseat.
What do you ladies like best? Should I do a combo, a little bit of this and that? Which is your favorite look? Which picture(s) should I bring in as examples?
My favorite out of those is Carrie's natural look!!! She is so pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the glam looks. Hayden's picture is my favorite.
ReplyDeleteto me, both looks are pretty similar, with the glam having a little more dramatic eye. i like julianna hough's face the best for the "glam" files, carrie underwoods "natural" look.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a tough call and I know what you mean about not wanting your makeup to compete with your jewelry. I do think a glam look is nice on wedding day and I’m loving that last look from Carrie Underwood. Her smoky eyes are beautiful! I say lashes are a must. I wish I had done that.
ReplyDeleteI think that no matter what you need some "va-va-voom" eyelashes! Either look will be beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI love the natural looks. I love seeing brides who look fresh and simple. We got married in the afternoon and then had an evening sit-down dinner party with all of our guests. Before the dinner party, I touched up my make up to be more evening, so I got to do both!
ReplyDeleteI vote for Glam. It's your wedding!!! You can look natural any other day of the week.
ReplyDeleteI think a comkp bc you wear fancy makeup all the time
ReplyDeleteOddly, I like Carrie in both looks.
ReplyDeleteDid you decide on how you're wearing your hair for sure yet? I think that would be the best determiner for makeup in my opinion...I know you said down...but I didn't know if it would be half up or not.
I think I'd lean more for a smoky eye though ;-)
I love Hayden's natural look!! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you so much ladies! It's so hard bc all these women are so gorgeous! Love all of your input, you guys are such a huge help!
ReplyDeletei love both looks but two things. def go with the look that is more "you"... and second keep in mind the pictures - make up sometimes gets washed out, so you might want to go a little heavier (glam) for them... also, its your wedding day, its nice to add a little extra glam and feel like a princess!
ReplyDeleteI think a littel combo would be perfect! I love the natural look, but a more natural, "lighter" smoky eye will make your eyes pop.
ReplyDeleteI am so loving all the neutral looks and think they would look fab on you! If you are wearing a good amount of bling, too much makeup will have you looking a bit overdone.

MY suggestion just because their makeup is ALWAYS To DIE for: is a mix between Hayden's sunkissed -going out look and the last picture of GLAMMED out Carrie Underwood :) Sunkissed and falsy lashes and lots of pinky cheeks! You will look gorgeous either route you go!!!
ReplyDeleteI like the last Carrie Underwood look - I think she looks so pretty and it would look great on you!
ReplyDeletei used a pic of hayden for my makeup inspiration and I was thrilled with how it turned out. I did opt for a smokey eye but kept everything else pink and glowing (lips and cheeks). I think a more dramatic eye is nice for photos where often features can get lost without enough definition. I would say go somewhere halfway between natural and glam.
ReplyDeleteMy vote is for last carrie underwood pic!
ReplyDeleteI definitely love the glam eyes! You don't want to go too natural so it will show up in your photos.
ReplyDeleteI think Hayden P's makeup is always so pretty and I think that the more "natural look" is the best for brides - I like the freshness of it.
ReplyDeleteI personally like the natural look. But I think you should do whatever makes you feel the most beautiful, it's what you think, not everyone else that matters on your day!
ReplyDeletereally cute, and the whole photo-shoot is awesome! Great blog dear, congrats! Would you like to visit mine, and why not follow each-other? Let me know:
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes time to plan for a wedding, there is a great deal of anticipation and excitement about the event. In addition, there are also many details that have to be taken care of and many decisions to be made by the couple. One key decision is the wedding dress that the bride will wear when she goes down the aisle to stand beside her groom.
