Natural and full glam are the two words heard most when a bride starts thinking about her makeup, and it is not always clear where one ends and the other begins.
What sets natural wedding makeup apart from full glam
The difference comes down to two things: how defined the lines are and how intense the makeup is. Put another way, how much each stroke shows.
What full glam makeup looks like
In full glam the lines are very graphic. The eyeliner is drawn with precision, the features are structured and everything is defined, so the intention behind each stroke is visible. It is makeup that reads well from a distance and suits the artificial light of an evening celebration.
What natural makeup looks like
Natural makeup looks for the opposite: for it to seem like your own skin, as if you simply looked like this, only a little enhanced. Lines are blended, colour is built little by little and nothing looks drawn on. People who know you see you looking beautiful, but could not say what you are wearing.
Between the two there is room for many combinations. Sometimes a bride wants a soft, luminous finish but more coverage on the skin, and then full glam techniques are used for the base without the result ceasing to look natural.
