Are you getting ready for your big day, ladies?
The wedding season is upon us, and if you have an upcoming wedding to attend or are walking down the aisle yourself, you need to look stunning. As any bride-to-be knows, makeup is one of the most important details for feeling your best on your wedding day.
If you're on a budget but still want show-stopping glam makeup, NYX has you covered. Read on for a step-by-step guide to achieving wedding glam using NYX's must-have products.
Prep Your Canvas: Marshmellow Smoothing Primer and Matte Finish Setting Spray
To get that flawless base, start with NYX’s Marshmellow Smoothing Primer. This lightweight primer helps minimize pores and fine lines, so your makeup goes on smoothly and even. Apply it to your T-zone, under your eyes, and any other problem areas.
Next, mist your face with NYX’s Matte Finish Setting Spray. This sets your primer and provides a matte finish, so your makeup lasts all day. Reapply as needed to prevent shine and keep your look photo-ready.
For extra staying power, also try NYX’s Dewy Finish Setting Spray. Use the dewy spray on high points of your face like cheekbones, brow bones, and the nose bridge to add a glowy sheen. The best of both worlds!
With primer and setting spray in place, you’ve created the perfect base for your wedding glam look. Your makeup will stay fresh for hours of photos, dancing, and celebrating. Now you’re ready to move on to eyes, lips, and cheeks—NYX has you covered with all the essentials to complete your bridal beauty look.
Sculpt and Define: Epic Semi-Wear Liner, Jumbo Eye Pencil, and Ultimate Shadow Palette
To achieve a glamorous wedding makeup look, you'll want to define and sculpt your features. NYX has you covered with their Epic Semi Wear Liner, Jumbo Eye Pencil, and Ultimate Shadow Palette.
Eyes
Start by lining your eyes with NYX's Epic Semi-Wear Liner. This creamy pencil glides on smoothly and lasts for hours without smudging. Apply it along your lash line and wing it out for a cat eye, or line just your top lid for a more natural look. Next, use the Jumbo Eye Pencil on your lower waterline to make your eyes appear bigger and brighter.
Then, reach for the Ultimate Shadow Palette and blend a few complementary shades on your lids. A combination of shimmery champagnes, taupes, and browns will create a soft smokey eye, perfect for a wedding. Finish with a few coats of Worth the Hype Mascara for lush, dramatic lashes.
Cheeks
For a glowy flush, swirl Sweet Cheeks Blush on the apples of your cheeks. This velvety formula blends like a dream and comes in matte and shimmer versions, so you can achieve your desired finish.
Lips
Complete your look with Powder Puff Lipli, or a soft matte lip cream that glides on creamy skin and sets to a soft matte finish. Shades like Exotic and Seduction are perfect bridal pinks. Or for a bolder pout, try the new Lip Lingerie XXL in Risky Business, a rich plum.
A few spritzes of the Dewy or Matte Finish Setting Spray will ensure your NYX-infused glam look lasts as long as the celebrations. With these pro tips and products, you'll achieve a wedding makeup look that's picture-perfect.
Add Some Glow: Dewy Finish Setting Spray, Sweet Cheeks Blush, Shine Loud Lipstick, and Lip Lingerie XXL
Once you’ve perfected your base with the Marshmellow primer and applied your eye look, it’s time to add some glow. A dewy finish is perfect for a wedding and photographs beautifully.
Dewy Finish Setting Spray
Mist your face with NYX’s Dewy Finish Setting Spray to hydrate your skin and provide a luminous sheen. Hold the bottle 8–10 inches from your face and spray 2-3 spritzes. Let it set for a minute, then gently pat it on your skin with your fingers. This will melt everything together for a seamless, lit-from-within glow.
Sweet Cheeks Blush
Add a pop of color to your cheeks with NYX’s Sweet Cheeks blush. Swirl your blush brush over the pan and tap off any excess. Start at the back of your cheek and blend upwards towards your temple using small, circular motions. Build up the color gradually until you achieve your desired look. For a dewy bride, a peachy or coral blush pairs perfectly.
Shine Loud Lipstick
Finish with a swipe of NYX’s high-shine Shine Loud lipstick. This hydrating formula comes in a range of nude, pink, and red shades, making it ideal for any bride. Apply directly from the bullet and blot with a tissue for a stained, just-been-kissed effect.
Lip Lingerie XXL
If you prefer a matte lip, try NYX’s Lip Lingerie XXL. This transfer-proof formula comes in romantic rose, mauve, and berry shades that last all day without drying out your lips. Line and fill in your lips with the Lip Lingerie pencil, then apply the XXL lipstick. Touch up as needed, and you’re ready to say, “I do!”
With luminous skin and flushed cheeks, you’ll be a vision of bridal glam. Now go get glowing, girl! The big day awaits.
So, there you have it—your complete guide to creating a gorgeous wedding makeup look with NYX products that won't break the bank. With the right tools, like the Jumbo eye pencil, Ultimate shadow palette, and Worth the Hype mascara, you'll be batting those lashes and turning heads as you walk down the aisle.
Finish it off with a swipe of Powderpuff lipstick or Lip Lingerie XXL in your perfect nude or red, and you'll be camera-ready. Whether you want a dewy glow or matte perfection, NYX has a setting spray for that. Your makeup will last from the ceremony to the final dance without fading or smudging.
