#TraditionalIndianWeddingMakeup

Rupali had a 3 day traditional Indian wedding ceremony with multiple colorful outfits.  She wanted makeup that would complement what she was wearing as well as her skin tone.  I did two different looks.  The first one was rich golds and the second was a beautiful sunset eye look.  

Look 1- I used goldmine on her lid and gradually gave her depth with sketch and print on the outer corner and crease.  I didn’t touch her lashes because she had lash extensions.  This was a big time saver and ensured her lashes would look the same all day without any smudges.  I lined her waterline with a dark black to frame her eyes.  I love this version of a gold smokey eye which complimented what she was wearing beautifully.  I wanted her eyes to be the focus and her lips and cheeks to play the supporting role so I used red/plum tones for both which did exactly what I wanted.  

Look 2- We did a version of sunset eyes for this look.  I used a pale yellow tone for her highlight under her brows to help frame her face, yellow blended to orange on her lid with dark purples in her crease and outer corner.  The orange color popped on Rupali’s skin tone.  I framed her eyes with black in her waterlines and gave her a winged liner to extend her almond shaped eyes.  I contoured her cheeks and nose after adding a light foundation and topped it off with a highlighting powder to give her that beautiful bridal glow.  We decided to stay with the same plum tones for her lips to tie in her crease color of her eye.  Rupali’s eyes were glowing with all of the rich, bright tones!
