Tutorial: Most Popular Wedding Makeup with Gin

You’ve secured the venue, said yes to the dress and now it’s time to think about the beauty. With wedding season getting underway, we’ve called upon makeup artist and Official MECCA Beauty Junkie Gin [  / mecca_gin  ] to share the most popular bridal look she gets requested in her chair. As a bride-to-be herself she has many “I dos” and don’ts to share – borrow her ideas, try something new and avoid being blue at all costs. Hit play.

Skin prep is so important on your wedding day! To moisturise and provide a base for concealer, Gin takes the Origins GinZing Refreshing Eye Cream and applies it to her undereye and orbital eye area:

For a lightweight moisturiser that won't disturb makeup, Gin applies the Tatcha The Water Cream:

Gin's tip: Apply brows on clean skin before foundation. She uses the Hourglass Arch Brow Sculpting Pencil to fill them in using short, hair-like strokes and sets them using the Hourglass Arch Brow Volumizing Fiber Gel:

To prime, she uses MAC Pro Longwear Paint Pot in 'Soft Ochre':
