A wedding ceremony is a great time to pull out all of the stops and create one of the most memorable days of your life. One of these aspects where you can increase the drama is the makeup look that you choose when walking down the aisle. By working with a professional wedding makeup artist, you can transform your wedding day look into a design that is inspired by a number of different films. Along with the makeup design, you can match everything with the dress and accessories that you wear. Browse through three different makeup designs inspired by movies to help draw up your own makeup inspiration for the impending wedding day.
The Black Swan
To help draw attention on stage, Natalie Portman's character of the Swan Queen has striking and dramatic makeup that represents the beauty and flow of a swan. The key to this makeup design is letting the dramatic eye features stand out from the rest of the face. This is completed by using a white base for the majority of the face. A makeup artist can help blend the tones of your skin to create a lighter shade and showcase more contrast when used with other makeup.
A number of eyeliner tools and make-up kits will be used to create the dramatic look of the swan eyes. The final design will basically look like black feathers extending out naturally from your eyebrows. Your eyes will really pop through the deep black design. The makeup on your face can be complemented with a bold lipstick, including a wide range of colors like red or black.
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
A lot of Katniss's world in The Hunger Games is filled with battle, despair, and a natural look. The one time she really gets to stand out is when she's preparing for her next battle in the Hunger Games arena. For the sequel entitled Catching Fire, Katniss wears a wedding dress to help showcase her relationship with Peeta, another competitor in the competition. Her elegant look has a number of makeup designs that can be easily replicated for your own wedding day. The makeup design has a lot of silver undertones. This means that a makeup artist may apply some subtle glitter to the foundation and product used on your face. Katniss's eye make-up is also dramatic, with flares of black that extend out to the sides. One of the more striking parts of this makeup design are the small jewels placed underneath Katniss's eyes. You can have similar jewels placed under your eyes to create a beautiful look for the wedding day. A glimmering silver or gold lipstick can help complete the design and match the colors of the jewels on your face.
Cleopatra
The film may be more than 50 years old, but the looks and makeup designs are still inspiring today. Elizabeth Taylor showcases a number of dramatic makeup transformation in the epic drama Cleopatra. One of the key highlights featured in her makeup design was vividly colored eye shadow that extended all the way from the eyelid and up to the eyebrow. You can choose eye shadow colors that match your wedding colors and really make an impact with the makeup design. Eyebrows may also be colored in to give your design a bold look that really stands out. A makeup artist may also add in eyelash extensions and a deep mascara to help add contrast to the different tones surrounding the design.
A subtle lipstick with gold tones can help represent the royalty that Cleopatra showed. A bronze makeup application will help make your skin look radiant and really allow the eye shadow application to stand out among the design.
