    What have you decided your having/want your make-up done like for the Big day??

    Are you going for something natural or the complete opposite?

    I dont wear alot of makeup and its very natural looking anyway.. not sure if to have something like this...

    This is my make up. i got a bit confused when you said how are people having make up in the evening as mine was the same.

    i prefer the first pic of yours if you don normally wear make up much xx

    I wrote it by mistake-thanks for pointing that out lol.

    Your makeup is very nice :-)

    I wear makeup daily but its very natural looking not over the top or anything.

    I like the first one but would add some blusher and some darker mascara just to enhance it abit more xx

    I want my make up like I normally do it but much better and more lashes. I love the look of pic 2, love they eyes but I'm pasty and heavy makeup will make me look like even pastier, or like a drag queen.

    So I'll probably have something in between the 2 pics - more eye make up than pic one though, or maybe just more lashes :) x

    I did my own make up and had the same as I usually do (foundation, eyeliner and lipstick). I use make up everyday (don't leave the house without it lol) and just couldn't trust anyone to do the make up for me.

    I'll do my own make-up and I want it like I usually have it on bigger outings.

    Like this but less pronunced eyeliner tail.

    make-up Dita.jpg


    This is me in 2007 - couldn't find a more current pic with the same make-up or at least no close-up. It will be similar but I never wear foundation but tinted moisturizer - for the wedding I will wear a primer and proper foundation to have it less shiny and more evenly covered. But the basics are the same.

    I sport this fairly often - not always with an eye liner but it's the lips ofc that draw the most attention.

    Found two more pics of the same evening that show the make-up quite well.

    Love the pics on here, I never wear make-up unless it's for special occasions. Before I met my H2b I never left the house
    without it but now it doesn't bother me. I told my Bridemaids that I wanted them natural and I think I upset them as they
    wear false eye lashes, tan, nails and hair extensions where as I don't. I am however thinking of a hair piece as my hair started falling out a few months ago due to stress and the hairdresser chopped alot off (boo hoo) so it's not as long as I wanted it.
    I'm hoping that by the wedding I'll have a glowing tan with all the nice weather we're going to have lol. My Daughter is doing
    beauty therapy at college and I've booked myself in to MAC to have a rehearsal for £25 which they give you that price off any product you buy. The lady said if my daughter comes along with me she will show her exactly how to do my make-up on
    the day therefore saving me money. As my dress is Champagne I just want natural colours but a vibrant colour lipstick

    I have finally found my soulmate
    On 1st Sept 2012 I will become Mrs Curry

    I want something like this. My daughter is doing it for me, as she wears this kind of make up every day, shes a 50s fan.
    I do wear eyeliner daily and flick it out at the ends, but not quite as much as this picture.
    I also really like the smokey eye look but i dont think it will go with this make up will it? it looks as if the model in this picture doesnt have any eyeshadow on at all. I dont think i will wear mascara though, I am having individual false lashes fitted.

    RaggedyAnne - this pic looks like a cream eyeshadow and a darker one (brown) in the creases. And that would be classic 50s make up which I am doing aswell.

    Google Marylin make-up or YouTube Pin-Up Make-Up tutorial.

    I only ever wear make up in the house for fun once in a blue moon since I have some leftover from my teens. I think I got to a certain point and decided that if I can't be happy with who I am then I don't want to be happy with who I'm not, so I put away the make up and later stopped dying my hair too. Saying this I am lucky enough to have always had clear skin, and who knows how my thoughts might change as the wrinkles start to appear! This being the case I don't plan on wearing make-up at my wedding (much to my mothers horror lol) I want to feel as much myself as possible on the day I give myself to my partner for life!

    I will be doing my own makeup but not sure what i will be doing! I am planning to have eyelash extensions so they should help my eyes to look a bit more dramatic without the need for mascara which is good as i will end up looking like a panda if i cry otherwise! i am going for a trial run with the lashes at the end of April so i will do some trial runs then and see what i can come up with.I think i might try out some tutorials on line to get ideas too xxx

    i dont wear hardly any just a little eye liner and mascara but when i go out for the night i have always worn a neutral eyeshadow with red lips as they say its either yours eyes or lips that should stand out not both. I dont feel comfortable on a big day if i dont have red lips so i am going with the big lashes and red lips look on my wd x

    I barely wear make up unless going out or a special occasion (or on stage) so I want quite natural make up on the day. I like natural rosey cheeks and natural shades on my eyes. I have blue eyes and think browns really compliment them well :)
