How To Achieve A "Fun" Makeup Look While Still Looking Classic

[BridalMUA]

Hello Brides-to-be!

I recently received a question from a summer bride asking how she can have an "updated and fun" makeup look while still maintaining a classic appearance. I have a few suggestions any bride can incorporate into their own look

Add a "splash" of color to your eyes

By adding a wash of a brighter color to your eyes, you automatically up the "fun" factor. The key to maintaining a sophisticated look is by making sure you literally apply a thin wash of color to your lid and crease. Then, simply pair it with some liner (a slightly darker color similar to the shadow shade and smudged out will look absolutely stunning!) mascara and complete the look with soft lips and cheeks and you will look absolutely radiant. Some beautiful soft colors that have great pigment and blend very easily are from Nixie Cosmetics (www.nixiecosmetics.com) and a few of my personal favorites are:
*Deep Coral
*Evergreen
*Majestic
*Blue Sea
*Moss

Nixie also carries multi use pigment powders that you can mix with your foundation to add a subtle shimmer, add to your body lotion and and apply to your decollete, or just add a touch to your cheekbones, the ridge of your nose and just below your bottom lip for an absolutely radiant glow. Some great colors are:
*Almond
*Firefly
*Flirty
*Affection

Let your lips be noticed

You can also allow your lips to be the center of attention by applying a rich lip color. It's a slightly unexpected twist, but when paired with soft neutral eyes accented with crisp eyeliner and perfectly groomed brows, this look will not only be updated and fun but romantic and fresh as well. Nixie also makes some great lip products, and one of my favorites is their lips stains. These colors will last all day and give a natural, flushed look. And added bonus: You can thinly apply the stains to your cheek for a coordinating look that will stay fresh and dewy. Colors to consider are:

*Cinnamon
*Pink Pout
*Raspberry Delight
*Sunset

These are two ways one can add a bit of creativity and uniqueness in their bridal makeup while still looking radiant and feminine.
