Most brides prefer a\u00a0&#8220;natural&#8221; look, but one that conceals problem areas. Here are some tips on how to get an effortlessly\u00a0natural bridal look that looks as dramatic and beautiful on camera as it does in person:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18632\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0001.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Beauty-Tips\" width=\"660\" height=\"282\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0001.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0001-300x128.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make sure to get plenty of rest, adequate diet and keep yourself hydrated before your wedding day. This will help your skin to look at its best.<\/li>\n<li>Shape your eyebrows a few days before the wedding to avoid inflammation and redness.<\/li>\n<li>Sleep with a mask of your choice (depending on your targeted needs), and moisturize your face and under eyes right before starting your makeup application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>1. Eyes first! This will save you some time, as excess eyeshadow will fall under the eye while applying. If you have face makeup on before, you will have to clean up and reapply.<\/p>\n<p>2. Choose three eyeshadow shades: A shade close to your skin tone, a medium-deep shade for contrast (not dark), and a medium shade. Make sure they do not have a metallic or pearly finish. Use\u00a0semi-matte\u00a0eyeshadows for a more subtle look. If you want to achieve a romantic look, use a shimmery eyeshadow.<\/p>\n<p>3. Use a shadow base on the lid and proceed to apply the base color all over the\u00a0eyelid. Apply the medium-deep shade\u00a0on the lower lid and the medium at the crease\u00a0to diffuse both colors.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18631\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0002.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0002.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0002-300x135.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>4. Apply waterproof eyeliner on the upper eye waterline close to the lash line.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18630\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0003.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"809\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0003.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0003-245x300.jpg 245w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>5. To open up your eyes and give them a flirtatious look,\u00a0apply false eyelashes. Avoid extremely long or tapered ones. Look for faux lashes that are a hint longer than yours, and made with human hair. Make sure the lash band is invisible. Tap a little glue to your lash line and to the lash band as well. Wait a few seconds and proceed to apply. Work on one eye at a time. Dark glue will work better than a white or clear, so that when it dries it blends in with your liner.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18629\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0004.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"553\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0004.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0004-300x251.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>6. Apply eyeliner on top of the lash once it has dried and gently smudge.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18628\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0005.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0005.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0005-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>7. Time to clean up. Use a wipe and clean under eyes. Make sure to clean 45% of the outer corner to enlarge and lift the eyes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18627\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0006.jpg\" alt=\"2016-11-14_0006\" width=\"660\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0006.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0006-300x257.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>8. Apply a light concealer in the inner corner of the eyes and one close to your skin tone under eyes. Start dabbing and blend both colors for coverage. This gives you an overall well-rested look.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18626\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0007.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0007.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0007-300x244.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>9. Proceed to apply the foundation. Traditional makeup works best for\u00a0daytime\u00a0and outdoor weddings while airbrush is more likely to go under the radar\u00a0at nighttime. Avoid excessive contouring if you want to look natural. Subtle strobing is a nice touch for the natural look. You can also use a bronzer to achieve a natural sculpting if you desire.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18625\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0008.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"794\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0008.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0008-249x300.jpg 249w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>10. Apply powder with a soft, fluffy brush to avoid caking. The use of the sponge is always helpful at the time to take off some shine around your forehead, nose and chin.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-18624\" src=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0009.jpg\" alt=\"L'Atelier-de-ArtOnIt-Natural-Makeup-Look\" width=\"660\" height=\"1033\" srcset=\"https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0009.jpg 660w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0009-192x300.jpg 192w, https:\/\/staging.weddingsinhouston.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/2016-11-14_0009-654x1024.jpg 654w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 660px) 100vw, 660px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;re done, apply the lip color of your choice, add one final swipe of powder to &#8220;set&#8221; your makeup&#8230;and get ready for your close up!<\/p>\n<p>Photos: Courtesy of <a href=\"http:\/\/www.weddingsinhouston.com\/vendor\/latelier-de-artonit\/\" target=\"_blank\">L&#8217;Atelier De ArtOnIt<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are so thrilled to have expert makeup artist Sergio Escalona of Houston&#8217;s L&#8217;Atelier De Artonit on the blog today, with his tips for wedding day (and evening-out) makeup that looks effortlessly natural.
