>>There is nothing more important than selecting the perfect foundation to suit your complexion.
Foundation should not brighten but even out your natural skin tone. It should blend in with your skin and look completely natural.
Tip: Match the foundation on your jaw line first to see if it’s the right color for you.
>>Amazing things can be done with makeup. You can shade a round face look slim, make your nose look sharper, hide that double chin, minimise a wide forehead and broaden a long face.
But remember, all this requires skill and lots of experience. You may end up looking like a clown with obvious shades and lines all over your face.
Tip: Use a bronzer to keep it light and natural
>>Gorgeous eyes are an instant attraction. Indians are usually blessed with big eyes and it only takes a little makeup to highlight those eyes for an irresistible wide-eyed look.
Tip: Try some coloured lenses and natural-looking false eyelashes. Also, make sure you get enough sleep the night before your big day! Your dark circle should need just a light amount of coverage.
>>Take your time to choose the correct accessories; not just the right colour to match your outfit, but also the right size and design to suit the shape of your face. Whether it is going to be the big round nethi cutti, the long thin ear rings, the y-shaped necklace or that heavy traditional choker- make sure it complements the shape of your face.
TIP: A wide forehead can be minimised with a bigger and more elaborate nethi cutti.
>>Did you know that the accessories you choose can even make you look taller or shorter? This is why we always remind our brides to choose the right accessories. If you can’t decide, leave it to us. At Laashya, we have the experts to assist you and help you decide on the best accessories to suit your body.
Tip: Too many bangles can make you shorter while a long chain or necklace can make you look taller.
>> After selecting the colours and shades, don’t forget to use good lighting while applying your makeup . Using dim or poor lighting can have an undesirable effect on your make up, leaving you looking completely different when you step into the wedding hall.
TIP: Applying makeup in a dimly lit room can cause you to choose the wrong tone of foundation, which may be a shade too light or dark for your complexion.
So, to all the beautiful brides out there who are planning for the special day, remember that make up is an art. Use it to enhance your natural features and never be afraid to pick, choose and experiment before making that final decision.
Just tell us your ideas and leave the rest to us to make you look your very best on your big day and have a precious wedding album to keep forever.
The team at Laashya wishes you a happy and blessed married life!
