My pre wedding SN makeup!

Post by Kirti » Thu Dec 09, 2010 12:16 pm

Hi guys,

I had the first of my wedding ceremonies yesterday - a henna ceremony (which is like an indian body art that's not permamant!) and it was a blast! I got a TON of compliments on my makeup and it was 100% SN except for my mascara!!!

I didn't use any foundation (or concealer!), just a little bit of love lure perfecting powder and a few swipes of embrace blush on my cheek bones. I also used a feather light touch to contour my cheekbones with Nina. On my lips, I had vintage with a little lipblam over it! I didn't do any eye makeup, just used a bit of terra to enhance the crease. :D

Here are some photos! I'm the one in orange :)

These aren't the "official" photos - just some stuff clicked by friends! Let me know what you think though and please send some good wishes my way - my wedding's on Sunday and I'm alternating between excited and SUPER nervous! :? :lol:

You're stunning! You, the decorations, your friends, the rituals- it's majestic, like a scene from a Bollywood movie. Yes, just enjoy the day, and the outpouring of love from your friends and family. Take in every last moment, and have fun. I hope you and your groom have a lifetime of happiness together- he's a lucky guy

Kirti, you are beautiful!! You look absolutely radiant. How did you sit still for so long while they put mendhi on you? I had mendhi done for my wedding too, but not all the way up my arm. I remember thinking... crap I can't touch anything now! And you know, your nose starts to itch.. and you can't scratch it!

I know it gets so crazy at Indian weddings, with the amount of people that are there, but you will so feel all of that love during your wedding. It truly is an amazing day and all of the nervousness will be forgotten. You will be too busy thinking about marrying the love of your life :D So congratulations and enjoy every minute!
