There are so many options I’m feeling really overwhelmed! I decided to do my own makeup for my June wedding and can’t decide on a blush or lip combo. I’ve been looking at the Georgio Armani luminous silk glow #60, Patrick Ta not too much or she’s seductive, and YSL rose haze. No idea for lip besides a basic nude pink

Any suggestions?
Thanks

My close friend A introduced me to my fiancé, and is also officiating our wedding in a couple months. Over the last 4 years she’s been with a guy who is extremely toxic, narcissistic, and frankly unstable. There have been lots of things that have happened and they are constantly having issues and breaking up, especially when alcohol is involved.

We sent out our invitations back in March and they weren’t together, so I addressed it to her and her son only. However, now they’re “back together.” Her whole family doesn’t like him for very good reasons, but she’s been asking them if she could invite him to gatherings and trips because “he’s a lot better now.”

Since the invites have been sent out she hasn’t said anything to me about not inviting him or asked me if he can come. She doesn’t vent to me about their issues anymore because I’m pretty blunt about not liking him and that she deserves better.

  1. I don’t know how to, or if I even should, approach the subject because I don’t want her to feel like I don’t support her
  2. I don’t want to feel bad for sticking to my (and my fiancé’s) boundary of not having him there. The honest truth is I don’t want to see his face there.

Anyone been in a similar situation? The simple answer is “it’s my wedding and I can do what I want” but personal relationships are more complex than that

Thanks!

As a title says my aunt’s wife, who I love, asked what my color scheme was (see picture) and asked if it’d be okay to wear an ivory suit with a pink button up. I feel like it’s not that big of a deal… right? I mean, nobody will think she’s the bride, and we’re not doing a wedding party so she won’t be matching anybody. We are doing ivory tablecloths and my dress is more of an ivory color.

I know it ultimately only matters what I think but just wanted to ask the class. Thanks!

ET: I guess it wasn’t clear but yes I’m the bride!

I posted on here a couple weeks ago about my disappointing makeup trial with an MUA and I decided to just do it myself because I know my skin best.

I’m not a huge full glam makeup girl and really want to look like myself on my wedding day. This was my first attempt, and going forward I plan to add lashes (tried clusters and failed, bit of a learning curve) and work on my eye makeup as a whole. I bought the ND I Need a Nude palette and love it, tried a more pinky look. I’ll also be figuring out a better lip color! And getting my brows done for sure.

I cannot for the life of me get my left eye too match my right! It looks rough 😬 it also seemed like the eyeshadow became patchy after a while, see pic 4

Good news is this lasted me hours, and with some tweaking and more practice I think I can get it done.

Thoughts?
