Wedding Wise: Five makeup tips for a navy bridesmaid dress
Filed under: Do-It-Yourself, Bridal Beauty, Theme weddings
To wrap up our theme week at AisleDash -- the rich color palette of navy, cream and gold -- what a better subject than the perfect look for your perfect bridesmaid dress (in a navy hue to match your theme). Here are a few compiled tips to make your look complement -- and not clash -- with your deep-colored, stunning dress.- We've all heard it said: don't match your eyeshadow to your dress, and this rule still applies to your navy bridesmaid dress. Try a bronze or metallic shade (or shades) such as Stila's eyeshadow trio in "Bronze Glow" or Vincent Longo's trio in "Autumn Rhythm."
- A great eyeliner/mascara combo. Something in a deep, rich brown. Try this liner (in "Deep Brown") and this mascara in "Chestnut."
- Use a subtle bronzer. Highlight your natural skin tones and accentuate your eyes with a great bronzer such as Lorac's Bronzer in "Glow."
- You want to look good for the wedding photos but you don't want your lip color to overpower your makeup. A pink/rose gloss will look great. Try out any of these great glosses from Nars: "Gothika," " Positano" or "Stella."
- If the bride is open to you choosing your own nail color, find a gold shade that will tie the whole look together. Something like Laura Mercier's nail lacquer in gold shimmer.
