Wedding shenanigans do not really stop for the brides until almost a year after the wedding, and we understand how important it is for the bride to look and feel her best every day!
As stressful as it is for the bride to manage a thousand chores to make sure her dream wedding turns into a reality, it is equally as hard on her family’s pockets.
Lets get real, it is not practical for everybody to get all the high-end products for their makeup kits. You don’t really have to break the bank while putting together your makeup kit to take along after the wedding. However, we don’t recommend compromising on the quality either.
We have decided to take care of your makeup kit by putting together a list of the best products that you can get that won’t get hard in your pocket, as well.
Foundation
-
Loreal True Match Foundation
Loreal’s true match foundation comes in 24 shades and has a perfect range to cater our skin tones. It is a Medium to Buildable full coverage. It is super blendable to use and has a satin finish, so you won’t have to worry about caking up your face with this foundation.
-
Revlon Color Stay
Revlon Color Stay has amazing foundation shades to choose from, that complement our skin tones perfectly. It is a medium to full coverage and would give you a matte finish. The best thing about this foundation is that it lasts more than 8 hours and gives a flawless even coverage.
-
Maybelline Fit Me
Maybelline Fit Me foundation will be a breath of fresh air for all the brides that dread those full coverage matte foundations. This is a perfect sheer coverage that is buildable, gives a subtle dewy finish and feels like flawless skin. This is a perfect choice if you want a weightless formula that won’t camouflage your own skin.
Setting Powder
Once you are done with the foundation, setting powder is what you will need next. RCMA No Color Powder is perfect to avoid caking up your foundation, it gives a beautiful finish to the foundation and doesn’t mattify it. This powder won’t change your foundation shade one bit.
Pressed powder
Pressed Powder is an absolute necessity, and you have to have to carry it in your bag, whether it is for your wedding day or a casual day.
You can touch up your foundation when needed or use it to cover up any additional imperfections. The best powders to carry with you in your makeup kit are:
-
Rimmel Stay Matte
Rimmel stay matte is like a magic wand for those who have an oily skin. One swipe and it will handle the oil for 12 hours, yes, you heard it right, 12 HOURS. It will minimize the appearance of your pores and will give you a flawless velvety matte finish.
-
Revlon Color Stay Pressed Powder
Revlon color stay pressed powder would give you a translucent coverage while hiding away your pores and blemishes and this would leave your skin looking natural and fresh.
CONCEALERS
Dark circles that peek through the flawless foundation isn’t really a very pretty sight. So whether you want to hide your blemishes or your dark circles, concealer is what you need.
Maybelline Instant Age Rewind concealer is our personal favorite. It blends in beautifully and doesn’t crease. Its packaging is perfect and gives control over the amount of product that you put on. This concealer brightens up your under eyes while hiding those dark circles, which is a plus.
 EYEBROW KIT
Eyebrow kits are the latest makeup sensation, Thanks to Instagram. We can’t deny the importance of having your eyebrows on fleek. Luscious Brow Luxe Tool Kit is the answer to all your eyebrow confusions. It consists of 2 Brow Powders, Brow Setting Wax, Mini Tweezers, 2 Brow Brushes and 3 Stencils. You can choose your perfect shade according to your eyebrows.
EYE PENCIL
Diana of London Super Long-Wear eyeliner pencil is perfect for your makeup kit. It doesn’t smudge and has a very intense black color.
MASCARA
Maybelline Lash Sensational is our personal favorite. It’s a waterproof mascara that doesn’t clump your eyelashes and gives them volume and length at the same time while keeping the eyelashes separate. Two to Three coats of it would give an illusion of false eyelashes, and that’s all that we need.
EYESHADOW KIT
 From a huge number of eyeshadow kits in the market, it gets hard to decide and pick the best. For a perfect Eyeshadow palette make sure you go for the one that has more warm and neutral shades like browns and gold because that’s what you will be using the most and the number of looks that you can create out of these shades are tremendous.
Our recommended eyeshadow palettes for the brides-to-be are:
- Maybelline: The Nudes Palette
- Morphe: 35O Palette
- The Balm: Nude Tude Palette
CONTOURING
Contouring would make a huge difference in your makeup look. It will give you a structured face and will enhance your best features. We love Luscious Cosmetics for putting together one Contour kit that caters all our contouring needs. Luscious Cosmetics Face Contour Kits come with two contour shades and two Highlighting shades that you can use and the best part about this product is that you won’t overdo the contour and this is a perfect kit to carry along with you.
