Day weddings are a total mood. The sun shining bright up in the sky just sets a whole different vibe as compared to evening weddings. We bet you already have a few invites to today weddings now that the weather is nice and cooler, so it’s only fair to get with the vibe and glam up the right way for the occasion. Since day weddings often include being outside with nature, it’s a good idea to opt for a more soft glam approach when it comes to makeup. It is just the best choice! Your makeup should look fresh and alluring if you want it to wear well throughout the celebrations. A lighter yet radiant base with blushed skin is always welcome, day or night, and pretty lipstick shades are a no-brainer as well. So, all you need to really focus on is your eyes.
Now, you may not be as privileged as the bride on her wedding day to have an on-site professional makeup artist to get ready, but you won’t be needing that anyway. These soft smokey eye makeup looks are classy and just the right amount of glam you need to slay the day. You don’t even need much skill to recreate these eye makeup looks. They are super beginner friendly and require only classic makeup products that you may already have in your makeup kit. Besides, smokey eyes never fail to impress!
