Makeup for an Indian Wedding

Hi Bellas!

A few weeks ago I did the makeup for an Indian wedding. It was so much fun. I did the bride and her mother. Unfortunately, I didn't get a picture of the mother. Hopefully when I get the professional photos I can show them to you all.

The bride wanted two looks: one for the morning ceremony and one for the evening reception. I love these kind of weddings because you can actually play with color. She chose to wear one of my favorite lipsticks - So Scarlet from the Cult of Cherry collection.

Check out the before and after:



Here she is for the morning reception. I am in love with all her jewelry and her clothing! We went with the Spiced Chocolate quad on her eyes. She wanted a balance of color that would still be bright but wearable for the daytime.



Here is her makeup for the reception. I came back in the afternoon to do it. She wanted bright purples. I like the way the colors came out. We used helpcat, the purple from the pandamonium quad, beautiful iris a few other colors. We did some extra contouring for the evening time.



Here she is all dolled up and ready for the reception.


The happy couple! I helped him pick out that tie :)


I'll post the professional pics as soon as I get them!

Have a great weekend!

Ciao Bellas!

i really love the morning look. It's great seeing how you incorporate your shadows in different eyeshapes, other than your own, which i'm used to seeing. I'm not a fan of the evening look the dramatic purple eye and bright red lips seems a bit too much going on and clashes a bit. but i guess it's personal preference.
