My Self Wedding Makeup

items Weddings are, like everything else these days, expensive. In order for us to achieve our dream of travelling for our honeymoon and getting a house one day, my husband and I opted to save as much on a Wedding as we could. We had a tiny, micro wedding ...

Base
Acne? No problem. It was undetectable in my 4k pictures :)
It was to be hot & humid with sun showers on our wedding day! I needed something that would ensure I wouldn't get too oily. This is perfect to fill in my large pores in the center of my face and lengthens my makeup wear-time.
SOME BY MI - PDRN Spirulina Poreless Primer 10g
Due to having problematic skin, I like to keep my first base layer light, hydrating (but not oily), and even out the skintone. Buildup in coverage happens in the concealer stage, for me. In love with Chanel's tint - it's more like a light coverage fo...
Chanel LES BEIGES Water-Fresh Complexion Touch
The BEST concealer ever! Applies thin, doesn't ever look cakey, and covers almost everything.
THE SAEM Cover Perfection Tip Concealer 0.22 oz.(6.5g) | OLIVE YOUNG US
for micro adjustments, tiny concealments, and cleaning the lip line or brows.
THE SAEM Cover Perfection Concealer Pencil 0.07 oz.(2g) | OLIVE YOUNG US
My favorite ultimate coverage hack. Matte finish and renders any discoloration invisible no matter how dark your hyperpigmentation is. I like to put this on scabs, dark pigmentation areas, and raised & angry trouble areas. It does not cover textu...
The Saem - Cover Perfection Pot Concealer
Definitely lengthens the wear of my base but only if I use it BEFORE powder! If you are also very oily and your special day is hot but you have sensitive skin - this is one I can recommend to you. It feels like nothing on your skin. So comfortable, y...
CitySet™ Lightweight Hydrating Setting Spray with 16-Hour Wear - Saie
Blush & Cheeks
Cream blush to bring brightness and longevity of wear, powder blush with shimmer to bring the saturation that will show up on camera.
Fluffy Peach is my fav color from lilybyred and it brightens my face and draws attention to the center. It layers under every blush I have so well.
lilybyred - Luv Beam Cheek Balm 06 Fluffy Peach
44 N Lavalliere is my top recommendation for anyone with cool olive skin tones. It has a beautiful shimmer that looks like your skin is amazing.
YSL Make Me Blush Nude Lavalliere
Ginger Night shade is my go-to for ultra-natural bronzer/shading. It's the perfect neutral-leaning warm tone that will give a natural warmth and shading effect on cheeks, nose, forehead, and chin/jaw area. Looks undetectable in person, but you can de...
romand - Better Than Cheek INAPSQUARE Edition Ginger Night
Powder
No compromise here - Matte + Luminescent in the perfect spots
My favorite setting powder that doesn't feel drying and still leaves your skin looking like skin. It's perfect for a light dusting all over the face to set and remove unwanted shine.
MAKEUP BY MARIO SurrealSkin® Talc-Free Soft Blur Setting Powder
Adds a matte finish with extra coverage. I don't use this as a foundation itself, but as an extra step to add coverage and blur imperfections after translucent powder. It looks amazing on camera! This is perfect for areas with texture, scars, and hyp...
HY‑Glam Powder Foundation
For a glow-from-within filter effect. Very last step. Apply away from trouble areas to prevent emphasizing bumps - however rest assured, it does not emphasize wrinkles or tiny bumps!
Hourglass Ambient™ Lighting Finishing Powder Diffused Light
Eyes
Not too much, not too little does not mean you don't use many products. Eye makeup is an art for me.
The most wonderful mascara I have recently found! Tubing mascara cannot be beat for how lightweight and easily removed it is. This one from Maybelline ticks all of my boxes: lightweight, lengthening, NO smudging, easy removal. You can't go wrong with...
Very Black Lash Sensational Sky Tubes Tubing Mascara - Maybelline | Ulta Beauty
I used my blush as my eyeshadow! I do this often to allow for cohesive blending of my makeup. It just makes sense. I blended this with a cream eyeshadow from MAC to fill in my outer corners with some shadow and depth.
YSL Make Me Blush Nude Lavalliere
Don't be fooled by the pictures from MAC! Groundwork is more of a neutral, grayish beige-brown. It works for anyday, anytime, anywhere! I wanted a blush flush in my color accents: blush and eyes. I blended this with my YSL blush and it gave depth to ...
MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot Groundwork
The most versatile eyeshadow palette I have! I used a cool-beige to compliment & blend out MAC groundwork and contrail (a white) to highlight and brighten the inner portion of the eye. Neve also provided a glitter effect that I tapped onto the mi...
XENON EYESHADOW PALETTE
A gel-powder formula that is perfect for eyeliner! No fall-out and great for everyday. I used this as a base eyeliner as I wanted to make sure my eyes popped. I topped my eyeliner with the Natasha Denona Xenon Palette with the dark matte shades.
Holika Holika My Fave Piece Gel Tail
Lip
434 Reflet is so flattering for olive tone skin. I used this lip gloss with my fav liner and it was so sweet and natural and I felt like myself.
ROUGE COCO HYDRA GLOSS – Moisturizing Lip Gloss
My all-time fav lip liner was actually chosen by my now husband! Soar is such a flattering purple-pink that is amazing for cool olive tones. I guess you can say he knows me best :)
MAC Lip Pencil
Highlight
Not glassy, not metallic, but still detectable highlight. Pearly Glow was the goal! I find it flatters and softens the makeup so much. If you have more soft and round features, a pearly glow is most flattering.
I layered this luminizer under my highlighter to give a natural, but noticable glow. This highlight is one of my all time favorites and is affordable! It has a pearly finish that's soft and super natural. It's my everyday highlight. Very unique in th...
Sephora Colorful® Powder Luminizer - SEPHORA COLLECTION
Beautiful pearly glow that is noticable, but not too much. I have been complimented on this highlighter countless times. It's so flattering and beams in a soft, diffused, but noticable way.
