My Wedding Hair and Makeup

We all did our own hair and makeup for the wedding, Even if we hadn’t been trying to limit the number of people due to COVID, I still would have wanted to do my own makeup though I probably would have opted for a hair stylist. Getting my makeup professionally done is so, so hit or miss. Sometimes even if I like the actual look of the makeup, I just don’t “feel” like myself and I really just prefer a more natural look.

I was a little nervous about my hair– especially since our wedding was going to be in the backyard and my hair is v sensitive to the environment. We lucked out with zero humidity so ultimately there wasn’t an issue!

MY HAIR:

I actually just did my regular hair routine. I did a blow out with my Dyson and then curled loose waves with my wand (here’s how I do it).

MAKEUP:

My makeup was pretty much my regular makeup routine too– I just added eyeshadow and false eyelashes I bought on a whim from the drug store. I was nervous to use the false eyelashes because getting both to look great can be so hard. I was sweating 😆 I did have to peel one off and restart but ultimately figured it out.
