Summer Bridal Makeup Looks by Estee Lauder
Estée Lauder Global Makeup Stylist, Rick DiCecca Creates Summer Bridal Looks. Estée Lauder has created a look for every bride. Whether your outdoor wedding calls for a natural look, or your nighttime celebration insists on dramatic eyes and bold lips, you can achieve your perfect bridal makeup using one of Rick’s four Bridal Styles: Natural, Classic, Dramatic, or Romantic.
To begin each look, prep your skin with your favorite Estée Lauder skincare products. Use a foundation brush to apply your shade of Estée Lauder Double Wear Light Stay-in-Place Makeup SPF 10 or Nutritious Vita-Mineral SPF 15 Makeup to even out skin tone for a flawless base. No matter what look you choose, be sure to apply Double Wear Eyeshadow Base from your lashline to the brow to ensure that your eyes stay fresh and glowing throughout the celebration.
Depending on your preferred bridal style, continue application by choosing one of the four looks below.
Bridal Makeup Look 1: Natural: To achieve a natural flawless look on your wedding day, accentuate your features without going overboard with soft, delicate neutrals.
Step 1: Face: After your foundation has set, apply Bronze Goddess Soft Matte Bronzer by using the middle of your ear and the tip of your nose as a guide. Blend the powder towards your nose.
