Did my own makeup trial!

Samantha, on March 12, 2022 at 4:11 PM Posted in Hair and Makeup 1 14
I'm doing a boudoir shoot in a few weeks and wanted to use that as essentially a trial for my wedding makeup, but I figured I should give the makeup a try before I trusted it for a photo shoot.


Anyway, I am IN LOVE with the way it turned out and just wanted to hop on and share my pictures!!Did my own makeup trial! 1

I used Allie Gline's drugstore wedding makeup tutorial as a base, making a few substitutions with mascara, foundation, primer, and setting spray. But I used her exact recommendations and colors for eyeshadow, blush, bronzer, and setting powder. I used the same products for eyebrows, but in shades that made sense for a blonde! I also used slightly different false lashes but will probably switch the the ones she recommends!

    You look beautiful! Great job, I love the lashes they look natural but add just the right amount of glam.

    Thank you!! I sat on the floor of Ulta in front of the false lashes for about 20 minutes trying to find the most natural looking ones 😅

    It looks great! I did my own makeup for my wedding, too, and I didn't regret it for a minute!

    I'm doing this too! hahaha! I love Allie. I hate the way I look when I get professional make up done. This looks PERFECT. You did SO good. What products did you end up using?

    I'm obsessed with Allie, it's fine 😂


    Going down her list: same brow products (in blonde and taupe) but with the Nyx brow mascara on top instead of a clear brow gel (the brow mascara is my day to day brow product so it helped me look a little more like me!)
    I used the same concealers down to the shade (will probably need darker after my spray tan) - honestly made for a great, crease-proof eye!
    I used the ColourPop Feelin' Bubbly palette instead of Going Coconuts (and I just got Going Coconuts in the mail and they're soooo similar so either will be great for most skin tones!!)
    That super shock eyeshadow in Ritz is a dreammmmmm. I definitely recommend it.
    For eyeliner I used the Stila long lasting liquid liner pen in smoky quartz because it's my daily eyeliner and I'm comfortable with it.
    I used the waterproof version of my everyday mascara - Clinique high impact.
    My face primer was Urban Decay's All Nighter because I also have a travel size of that on hand.
    My foundation is Estee Lauder Double Wear because I know how it wears on my skin and I splurged on it almost 2 years ago.
    Same blush and bronzer she used, down to the colors
    Same powders too!
    I used some 3/4 lashes I found at Ulta instead of the individual lashes she used
    My favorite lipstick ever is the Urban Decay vice in the shine formula in the color Local, so that's the lipstick I used with the same liner she used!
    Oh, and I used the ColourPop super shock highlighter in Lunch Money!
