Video: How to Apply Perfect Wedding Make-up

Celebrity make-up artist Daniel Sandler shows you how to get the perfect bridal look for your big day.

Primer; Use a silicon based primer on the forehead, eyelids, and any other areas that may go shiny, before applying foundation, concealer and loose powder to set the base.
Step 2:: Foundation; Use a silicon based foundation for bridal make-up as it will last longer than oil based formulas so you won't need to touch it up.
Step 3:: Eyeshadow; Avoid hard, dark colours on the eyes which won't look flattering in photos. Choose soft pinks, purples and pastel colours.; For this look, Daniel uses a pastel baby pink eyeshadow - which should be applied from the eye line up to the brow line.; Lilac eyeshadow suits all skin tones - apply this all over the eyelid and up to the socket line with an eyeshadow brush.; Frame the eyes by applying the lilac eyeshadow along the lower lashline with an eyeliner brush. Work from the outer edge inwards and brush off any make-up that falls down the face.; Open up the eyes by applying the lilac eyeshadow into the eye socket with a smaller eyeshadow brush.
Step 4:: Eyeliner; Use a waterproof, silicon based eyeliner pencil and apply it close to the upper lash line, which will make your eyelashes look naturally thicker.; Define your lower lashes with a little eyeliner pencil along the outer edge of the lash line. Keep the look soft, so don't apply it along the complete length of the eye.; Smudge this line with a layer of dark grey eyeshadow, applied on top of the pencil with a flat brush.
Step 5:: Highlight; Next, apply a silicon based, frosty pink highlighter with a small brush, just beneath the brow bone and along the upper lash line, avoiding the grey line you have just drawn.; To give yourself an instant eye lift, use eyelash curlers on clean, dry eyelashes - holding the curlers shut for 5 seconds.
Step 6:: Mascara; Finish the eyes with black mascara. To help the mascara last all day, apply a clear serum mascara over the black to give it a waterproof coating.
Step 7:: Cheeks; Apply a silicon based cheek stain in a soft pink colour to the apples of the cheeks - being careful not to take the colour too low as this will drag the face down.
Step 8:: Lips; For long lasting lips, apply a face primer to your lips before applying a lip gloss in a colour that is slightly warmer than your natural lip colour.
