Weddings are a big ceremony in every girl’s life. However, in the bid to prepare for the final day, we often forget other functions like sangeet, Mehendi, roka, etc. The Mehendi ceremony is a unique pre-wedding function.
Every bride is thoroughly excited about this and wants her hair, wedding makeup, and everything on fleek. Therefore, we have bought some important bridal makeup tips for the Mehendi function.
The perfect hair-do
Use fresh flowers for your wedding hair and accessories. This not only freshens up the look but is also in trend these days. However, it is not recommended to use a lot of flowers as they will dominate your makeup and outfit.
Use small-size flowers for your accessories.
Hydrate your skin before applying makeup
By this, we don’t mean just drinking ample amounts of water. Moreover, it is a makeup tip that most of the makeup artists aren’t aware of. Applying a makeup setting spray before applying the makeup will keep your skin soft and supple.
It keeps your face naturally glowing on a bright sunny day and keeps your makeup in place throughout the day.
Since Mehendi functions usually last a long time, this tip will surely help you stay camera-ready throughout the day.
Opt for an illuminating base
For a Mehendi function, you need a strong base since you will be the only person that is going to be on camera. There are many candid moments when you dance, laugh, or eat. During these times, you don’t want your candid pictures to be a spoiler.
Use a glimmering foundation that will give excellent radiance and coverage. Blend it well to avoid patches or uneven skin.
The highlighter trick
Once the makeup base is applied, ask your makeup artist to apply a liquid highlighter using a beauty blender before applying the foundation. This will glam up dull skin and give it a natural look.
Go minimal with eyes.
We all love going intense with eyes. But, since the Mehendi function is already filled with so many colours, you might want to keep your eye makeup minimal to complement the surroundings.
Eye makeup can change the entire game. Hence go for neutral and brown shades to make your eyes more prominent. Apply a hint of colour for a slight pop, and keep the rest of things simple.
Complement with contouring
Your entire makeup look is a waste if you do not contour the face properly. Contouring should be done carefully to restructure face lines. It should be soft but accurate.
Contouring gives a proper finish to your face and side face for natural and attractive pictures.
Opt for a light blush
Excessive blush will make your face look cakey. Hence the best way to choose your blush shade is by referring to your skin tone.
If you have a fair skin tone, a peach blush will suit. However, for a dark skin tone, choose a pink shade that complements your skin tone.
Choose warm shades for your outfit.
Warm shades like orange, red, or yellow will complement your floral jewelry well. Though we can see brides nowadays experimenting by opting for contrast shades, warm tones are a classic choice irrespective of the trend.
Final word
Pre-wedding functions are meant to be informal. Hence treat your makeup in a similar way. Don’t get too overwhelmed, and try to have fun with it.
