Darlings, on your wedding day, glow with a euphoric glow of love, joy and happiness by creating a glowy bridal makeup look! Discover how to create a glowing makeup look using my wedding makeup must-haves including my Glowgasm Face Palette in Lovegasm!
Brush along with this magical makeup tutorial to unlock the perfect glowy bridal makeup look to wear while saying ‘I do’!
Every glowy bridal makeup look should start with a magic skincare routine! To create a silky-smooth canvas for your makeup that looks lit-from-within, choose my Science Powered Serum and Magic Cream Kit. Apply Charlotte’s Magic Serum Crystal Elixir to a freshly cleansed face to deliver an intense moisture boost, followed by Charlotte’s Magic Cream to immediately revive the look of skin and leave it looking plumper, smoother and with a gorgeous glow.
To give the face a healthy-looking glow, apply the icons in my Beautiful Skin Complexion Kit to unlock effortless complexion perfection that looks fresh and naturally radiant. Starting with foundation, apply Charlotte’s Beautiful Skin Foundation to the centre of your face and blend outwards using the Magic Complexion Brush. Then, apply Charlotte’s Beautiful Skin Radiant Concealer under the eyes, over smile lines and in any areas where you want to conceal, such as over blemishes or redness. I recommend the small, tapered end of the Hollywood Complexion Brush for blending concealer – remember to use upward motions for a flattering lift effect!
It’s not a wedding look without a veil, darlings… A lightweight veil of smoothing-effect pressed powder will help your glowy bridal makeup to look airbrushed and flawless from the ceremony to the reception! With my Powder & Sculpt Brush, apply Airbrush Flawless Finish under the eyes and in the T-zone to help prevent creasing and keep unwanted shine at bay. I’ve used this award-winning, finely milled formula on countless celebrity brides, and now it’s your turn, darling!
Weddings are all about celebrating a perfect love match, and in the spirit of match-making, my brow products are the key to creating symmetrical, supermodel brows! To perfect the look of your brows, reach for your perfect shade of Brow Cheat eyebrow pencil. Use the spoolie to brush your brow hairs upwards to reveal their shape, then use the micro-precision pencil tip to define the arch of your eyebrow and sketch natural-looking hairs for a fuller-looking brow. Once you’re happy with your brows, use Brow Fix clear brow gel to fix them into place for long-lasting, beautified brows!
Your wedding brows are just as important as your wedding vows, darlings!
My Glowgasm Face Palette is the perfect palette for creating a gorgeous, glowy bridal makeup look! The sensational, skin-gilding shades can be used on the eyes to create a magical eye look that you’ll adore! Discover how to use it to get the Glowgasm bridal makeup look:
Using the Eye Blender Brush, wash the top-left champagne-gold GLOW shade across your lid to create a glowing base for your eye look. Then, with the Eye Smudger Brush, take the same shade and apply it into the inner corners for a brightening, beautifying effect.
The blush and bronzer shades in the Glowgasm Face Palette are perfect for creating a glowing eye look. They blend effortlessly onto the eyes to mimic true love’s glow.
Using a clean Eye Blender Brush, apply the top-right GASM blush shade into the crease and outer corner of the eyes for instant rosy romance. Sweep backwards and forwards to create a dreamily flattering finish. Then, apply the same shade to the lower lash line using the Eye Smudger Brush to define the look of your eyes.
For added dimension, tap the bottom-left LOVE bronzer shade onto the outer corners of the eyes with the Eye Smudger Brush.
Darlings, I know you love to glow, so to complete your eye look, use the highlighter shades in Glowgasm Face Palette to light up the look of your eyes!
Tap into the bottom-right rose-gold BLUSH shade with your ring finger, then gently apply it to the centre of your eyelids to add mesmeric shimmer. Then, go back into the GLOW highlighter shade with the Eye Blender Brush and apply from the centre of the lid to the inner corner to create a magical, sunset-inspired gradient.
No eye look is complete without my famous feline flick and lashings and lashings of mascara! For flawless-looking wedding day eye makeup, take my powder eyeliner pencil, The Classic, and glide along the upper lash line to define the look of your eyes. Subtly extend your eyeliner beyond the outer corner, flicking upwards and outwards to create a flattering, cat-eye effect. Then, apply Pillow Talk Push Up Lashes! mascara to give your lashes a 24-hour vertical lift effect that ensures all eyes are on you!
Before you seal your wedding vows with a kiss, apply gorgeous, glossy lip products that make your pout appear even more magical! Every glowy bridal makeup look needs a glossy lip, and my Lip Cheat and Collagen Lip Bath are an effortless pairing that creates the most natural-looking lips.
With my Lip Cheat lip liner, glide around the outline of your lips to enhance the look of their natural shape, then fill them in to give them a beautifying kiss of colour. Then, swipe my plump-effect lip gloss, Collagen Lip Bath, onto the lips to give them a mirror-shine, glossy finish that helps them to look fuller.
For your glowy bridal makeup look, I recommend using my rosy-brown Lip Cheat in Hot Gossip, then adding a clear coat of Collagen Lip Bath in Refresh Rose – this gorgeous lip combination pairs perfectly with my Glowgasm Face Palette!
Darlings, my Glowgasm Face Palette in Lovegasm is the star of your glowy bridal makeup! The euphoric shades that you’ve used to light up the look of your eyes look just as sensational on the cheeks - use the blush, bronzer and highlighter quad to unlock the beautiful bridal glow you’ve always dreamed of.
To bronze, use the LOVE bronzer shade in my Glowgasm Face Palette to create a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow! Take the Bronzer & Blusher Brush and apply this shade onto the cheekbones and jawline for a beach-bronzed look with a flattering, sculpting effect. Then, use this same bronze-toned shade to chisel and define the look of the nose, buffing underneath and along either side of the nose to create the illusion of a more pinched shape.
Tilbury Tip: Applying bronzer into the eye socket is a beautiful way to blend your nose contour with your eye makeup look.
Once you’re beautifully bronzed, use the champagne-gold GLOW shade in my Glowgasm Face Palette to dial up your glowy bridal makeup. Highlighting and sculpting the look of your face is easy, darlings… just follow my glow tricks! With the Powder & Sculpt Brush, sweep the highlighter onto the cheeks for a multi-dimensional glow, then use the Eye Smudger Brush to highlight the brow bone, centre of the nose, and the cupid’s bow.
For blush, swipe the Bronzer & Blusher Brush into the GASM and BLUSH shades in the Glowgasm Face Palette. The rosy BLUSH shade and rose-gold GASM pair perfectly to create the dreamiest, radiant blush look. To apply, blend the sun-blushed pink shades onto the apples of the cheeks using upward, circular motions for effortless, blushing cheeks!
Tilbury Tip: Take your blush higher on the cheekbones for a flattering lift effect.
Lock in your glowy bridal makeup with setting spray! I know how important it is to feel confident that your bridal makeup will last throughout your wedding ceremony and beyond, darlings. My Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray is the perfect makeup fix to make sure your glowing makeup look stays in place for up to 16 hours!
