For summer brides, smokey wedding makeup will work really well. This beautiful makeup look always transfers well onto camera.
When you describe your wedding day look, have you used words like 'ethereal', 'Grecian', 'boho' or 'beachy'? If that's your look, this smokey wedding makeup look will go just perfectly with your dress.
If you want to achieve this look, colours should be kept light and neutral. You need a mixture of matte eyeshadows with light shimmer eyeshadows to create light around your eyes. Another key aspect of this makeup look is to keep eyeliner to a minimum. If you are dead set on eyeliner flicks this look is not for you; it's all about creating a smokey effect using kohl pencil, and eyeshadow buffed out around the lash line. You can define the lash line with a little gel liner, but it should be kept to the roots so as not to give to much structure.
This look is based on blown out shadow and soft browns buffed out from your eyelashes and underneath your eyes. It will work really well if you are going with a Grecian-style wedding dress or anything delicate and girly.
If this is the look you'd love, show these images by the makeup elite of Instagram to your makeup artist.
The next one uses a little black kohl pencil in the waterline and there is a rose gold tone to it. It still sticks to the specifics though, well blended, a mix of both matte and shimmer eyeshadows and no sharp liner.

This one uses a gold colour with shimmer to create light at the inner corners of the eyes. This makes them look bigger and brighter and would make green or blue eyes pop.
