#MakeUpMonday: Bold Lip or Bold Eye?

Sam, on October 8, 2018 at 11:05 AM Posted in Hair and Makeup 0 30

There are so many ways to enhance your wedding day makeup look! I love it when brides choose to go with a bright red lipstick or dark smokey eyeshadow. On your wedding day, will you rock a bold lip or a bold eye?

    Both? Maybe?
    I feel undone if I just have one or the other.

    I haven't picked a makeup artist or done any trials yet. However, I love a good smokey eye and a bold lip! I'm thinking I'll go neutral on the lip for the ceremony and break out the bold for the reception.

    Bold orange-coral lip with neat eye and dark top lashes. Think Audrey Hepburn.

    This was my look at my sisters wedding. That was my first time wearing makeup but she gave me a bold eye(I think) 😕. So probably something similar

    Bold lip for sure! Here's my inspo (minus the eyeliner on the top and bottom):

    Bold eyes. I really don't feel comfortable with bold lips.

    I'm going bold eyes. I love a bold lip too. But I don't think I can pull one off and my fiance hates a dark lipstick

    Hi Sunshine416! This sounds so beautiful! Have you already had your makeup trial for your big day? If not, what are you using for makeup inspiration?

    I like a nice balance, but if I'm going bold with one or the other, I would go for a bold lip!

    I usually go bold with my eyes pretty much every day, however, I went full-on bold with my lips for my wedding day. I knew I wanted a deep, rich crimson lip.
