Marriages they say are made in heaven. Weddings on the other hand are a result of conspiratorial planning, procrastination, deep analysis and a balancing act of keeping all parties concerned placated. Trust me when I say that I speak out of experience! My wedding had three communities involved and myriads of people directly or indirectly being affected. As a result for me my wedding was somewhat like an Annual Day function in school wherein I was rushing off to my dressing room every hour to change. I changed 3 outfits during my wedding ceremony in 4 hours flat!

So while going through my wedding pictures I realised that there may be many out there like me who need to keep changing outfits and may need help with eye makeup that would go with any color and any type of outfit irrespective of a lehenga, a kanjeevaram, a benarasi, a paithani, a panetar and even a potloi.

Hence ladies, my this post is dedicated to creating a look that would be neutral enough to be paired with any outfit but will still enhance your bridal look. When I say neutral, I do not mean using neutral colors like browns, beiges and the like but something that wouldn't look out of place with an outfit of a particular color.

So here's the look I created and if you notice the two looks, the only difference lies in shade of the lipstick, rest everything including the eye makeup and the blush is the same.

Tutorial For Indian Bridal Eye Makeup

1. Prime your lids with either a prime or a concealer and set it with powder. This step is necessary in order to make your eye makeup last longer and also to make the colors pop.

Also do not forget to groom your eyebrows as this would highlight your eyes and frame your face in a flattering way.

I have used Colorbar Stick Concealer followed with Kryolan Translucent Powder. For my eyebrows I have used Konad Eyebrow Pencil in Black.

2. Next, apply a highlighter shade on your browbone in order to give an illusion of arched eyebrows and to give a professional touch to your whole look. I have used MAC Ricepaper Eyeshadow (review HERE) for this.

Also, apply a golden cream eyeshadow all over your lid. This too will make your powder shadows stick better. I have used MAC Paint Pot in Indianwood and applied it with my fingers.

3. Next taking a pale golden eye shadow on a flat eyeshadow brush, apply it on your lid in a pat-pat motion instead of a sweeping motion. I have used MAC Goldmine eyeshadow with Faces Flat Eyeshadow brush.

4. Taking the same eyeshadow, apply it on the inner corners of your eye and on the inner 1/3 of your lower lashline. This step can be done at the end as well, however doing it before applying kohl and liner ensures that it gives a more subtle and natural look as opposed to a more made up one.

5. Next, apply a matte brown eyeshadow on your crease area with a thin blending brush in order to blend out the harsh edges left by the lid color and the highlighter shade.

I have used MAC Folie with Kryolan Thin Blending Brush 3507.

6. In order to add a little duo-chrome effect and give your eyes a little festivity, apply a shimmery brown shade on the outer 2/3 of your lid and crease.

I have used MAC Antiqued Eyeshadow with MAC Tapered Blending Brush 226.

7. Next define your eyes by applying kohl on your waterline. Take care of not extending it to your lashline or smudging it. I have used Maybelline Colossal Kajal.

8. Line your upper lashline with a liquid liner and wing it out to add a little drama. I have used Maybelline Hyperglossy Liquid Liner in Black.

9. Finally apply multiple coats of mascara and avoid using false eye lashes. The glue on the false lashes could melt away during the havan and might create havoc with your makeup during the vidaai :)

So that's it... This is the finished look that is versatile enough to be used with any shade of lipstick and match any bridal outfit.

For an Indian bride, makeup is not just to make her look stunning--it is also part of a long-standing tradition that holds deep significance regarding the marriage itself. There are three things an Indian bride should do regarding makeup application for the big day: practice healthy skin care; sit for the application of the mehndi, or henna, design; and apply appropriate makeup before the ceremony.

Instructions

Start a skin care regimen six weeks before the ceremony. Ask a professional makeup artist or beautician if you are unsure about what products to use. Get plenty of rest, and drink water often to get rid of toxins that may be in your body for healthier looking skin.

Choose a mehndi design to go on your hands and feet. Popular designs include peacocks, flowers, leaves and conch shells, and traditionally the groom's name is included somewhere in the design on the hands. After the henna is applied, make sure it is completely dry before removing the paste. Apply oil and heat to the design to ensure the color turns dark.
