I’m doing my own wedding makeup – my holy grail, no-crease eyeshadow routine lasts for 8-10 hours with no issues
A BRIDE doing her own wedding makeup has shared the tips she used for a flawless look on her big day.
She revealed her “holy grail” eyeshadow routine that prevents creases for over eight hours.
Redditor Bexxss shared the makeup tips in a viral post.
“[I] wanted to share my holy grail, no-crease eyeshadow routine!” she said.
“I have tested this for literally weeks now, and after 8-10 hours of wear, I have no creasing whatsoever.”
The bride explained that she primed her eyelids with the Too Faced Shadow Insurance Primer, 27, first to ensure grip on her other products.
She added that the trick is to apply the product in a “super thin layer” with your fingers.
She followed up on the primer with her concealer of choice.
The technique that worked for her was to pat the concealer with a damp beauty sponge.
To set her eyeshadow base, she used the $14 Airspun Loose Face Powder.
For the eye look itself, the bride explained that she opted for glitter to make her eyes stand out.
“While this product is a bit older, I also will be using the Stila Liquid Glitter Eyeshadow in the shade Diamond Dust,” she said.
“Liquid glitter eyeshadow is super easy to use and makes a big statement with minimal effort!”
The Stila Glitter & Glow Liquid Eye Shadow, retails for $25 and comes in seven different shades.
To further accentuate her eyes, she added in her choice of false lashes.
“For lashes that feel comfortable and natural, try applying 2-3 of the Kiss individual lashes at the outer corner of your eye, under your natural eyelashes (trust me, it works!),” she said.
“I recently started doing this, and it looks WAY more natural.
“I forget I have them on until I’m taking off my makeup at the end of the night.”
Other experienced makeup fans shared their tips to make a look last as long as possible.
One swore by a setting spray that locked in their products.
“Ben Nye Final Seal setting spray is a game changer,” she said.
“I live in a seriously hot/humid climate and my makeup stays forever when I use it.
“I also love the Urban Decay primer (not the spray).”
