In the midst of this Fall season, one of the best love stories of all time has come to theaters. Bella Swan (now Cullen) officially walked down the aisle to wed her vampire fiance, Edward. As one of the most pivotal moments in the book and film, I wanted to recreate Bella's makeup that she wore in the wedding scenes.
Bella is a very natural character, making it a quick and easy look by only using a few products.
1. Prime the eyelid using whatever primer you wish. I used Too Faced Shadow Insurance.
2. Pack on a light neutral shade all over the eyelid, brow bone and underneath the lower lash line. I used Mac Blanc Type.
3. Using a champagne hue shadow, apply product using a medium angled brush to the inner corners of the upper and lower lash lines.
4. Using a dark grey hue shadow, apply product to the outer corner of the upper lash line sweeping it into the crease. Only go about halfway of the crease on the lid, to make a more natural effect.
*For steps 3 and 4 I used NARS duo in Tzarine.
5. Using a crimson red hue shadow, apply the product using a dome shaped brush to the outer corner crease. Make small circles blending the product into the dark grey color applied previously. I used Mac Sketch.
6. Using the remainder of the product on the dome shaped brush, drag along the lower lash line to define the area outside of the eye.
7. Using a small angled brush, combine the dark grey shadow with the crimson red, and run along the upper and lower lash lines.
8. Finish off the eye with one coat of mascara on the upper lashes. I used Victoria's Secret Voluptuous Volume Mascara.
9. For an extra detail to the look, dust a pale finishing powder across the forehead, cheeks, and nose for a porcelain look to the skin.
10. As for the lips, a little clear gloss will do. But I added a little bit of color combining a nude and pink lipstick, applying it to the center of the bottom lip. I used Sephora G19 and Revlon in Temptress.
