Bridesmaid makeup masterclass

When you’re a bridesmaid there’s always one common goal on the big day: to look flawlessly pretty (without upstaging the bride!).

Before you start

1 Use a primer like Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer(R365) to prep your skin. It helps your makeup go on more smoothly, making it last longer and appear more ‘natural’. After all, you’re going to be spending most of the day (and night!) in your makeup and the last thing you want is a smudged look by the time you need to pose for the wedding snaps.

2 Opt for a foundation with a slight ‘yellow’ undertone to even out your skintone,

3 Time to tackle those dark circles! Use a corrector in a ‘peachy’ tone to camouflage any dark marks. Then apply a concealer on top to brighten the eye area and give you a healthy, well-rested glow.
