Please help with bridesmaid makeup..pic included
I'm a bridesmaid next week and still have no clue what to do about makeup.
I want justa a pretty, timeless look.

I always wear shimmery e/s, but I read that that doesn't look good on pics?
I definitely want to wear a black eyeliner (just a thin line to countour the eye a little), but as far as shadows and lips go I'm clueless.
Browns tend to make me look like I'm ill/tired.

The dress (if that matters) is a rose color with a baby pink belt.

And here's a pic of me.

Thank you!

Re: Please help with bridesmaid makeup..pic included
one of my fav. bridesmaid combos is:
eyes:
mink pink or girlie (lid)
haux (crease)
hush e/s (highlight)
and if you want to darken up the crease (and outer-V) a little bit, blend in some embark, swiss chocolate, or brown down.

lips:
oak or spice l/l
faux l/s

OR (one of my favorite lip combos that came up unexpectedly):
half-red l/l
fabby l/s
oyster girl l/g

I woudl keep your makeup toned down. I think red lips and stuff would be too much because you dont really want to stand out. its the bride's day ya know?
i also love the color on your lips in the pic!!! is that l/s or just your natural lip color? reguardless, its beautiful

I'd go with matte colors, because shimmers and glitters sometimes photograph oddly. I'd go with a cream color on your lids, a slightly darker than your skintone eyeshadow color to contour, natural flushed cheeks, and natural lipcolor.

How 'bout:
bare study paint pot or bare canvas paint as a base
Jete eyeshadow all over
Vanilla as a highlight
Brown Down or Wedge in the crease
Foe eye liner I love Bobbi Brown's cream eyeliner in espresso

skip lip liner and go for a light gloss such as Love Nectar, Nymphette, or Big Kiss since you have such great natural pigmentation in your lips
