A bridal makeup kit is incomplete without the following items.
1. Face primer
Benefit porefessional primer is one of my all time favourite products. It will make your client's skin feel so smooth after application and will quickly minimize the appearance of pores! It is a bit expensive £20 + but a very good product.
2. Concealer
Concealers usually do a good job of hiding blemishes by blending the imperfection into the surrounding skin tone. A concealer palette is recommended simply because it has different shades that you can mix and match.
3. Liquid foundation.
You need at least four different shades in your bridal makeup kit - you need the lightest shade, the darkest shade, and two shades that are in between. You might also want to use the same foundation that your bride normally use in order to prevent any chance of breakouts.
4. Powder
This is used as a setting powder over the liquid foundation. And you also need at least four different shades. (the lightest shade, the darkest shade, and two shades that are in between)
5. Contour Powder
You need at least four different shades.
6. Blush
A blush palette is recommended. I got this from House of Tara, in Nigeria. Its a very good palette.
7. Eye primer
My favourite is Urban Decay because it guarantees more vibrant eyeshadow that lasts all day and NEVER CREASES!
8. Eyeshadows
A nude/ natural pallete is recommended. You also need to add other colours to your kit - and yeshadow pigments
9. Eyeliner (pencil / gel/ liquid)
You may decide to include all 3 in your kit. The choice is yours.
10. Mascara
You need a very good eyeliner that darkens, thickens, lengthens, and/or defines the eyelashes.
Maybelline’s Volume Express One By One Mascara is a very good one.
11. False Lashes
Mac and Ardell False Lashes are some of my favouites.
12. Lip pencils
13. Lipsticks & Lipgloss
14. Lipstick sealer
Lipcote is a very good one. And its affordable
15. Setting Sprays
Model in a bottle setting spray and Mac Fix+ Spray
16. Brushes
A makeup brush set is recommended.
These items should be in your bridal makeup kit.
