The Big Day always holds special importance in the heart of every girl. Right from the glitzy saree to a subtle saree; from shimmering makeup to nude makeup- every bride seeks perfection in it. When we talk about Tamil matrimony, the first image hitting inside the head is of a pretty bride dolled up in mesmerizing wedding attire. Tamil matrimony is one of the soberest matrimonies in India that keeps the glam-up part at bay, things have been embraced with changing times.
Every eye is fixed on the “Daddy’s Lil Girl” on her Big Day. Simply amazing!
But hey, there are some rules that aren’t followed for the bridal glam-up. Many makeup artists, just to doll up the bride, go off the road and commit blunders. Such things usually end up becoming a meme template circulated across the vast ocean of the internet- something that no one wishes for. So, here’s a list of some makeup blunders that beauticians and makeup artists need to avoid for a subtle yet pretty Tamil matrimony look.
1. Sparkle Like…WHAT?
Shimmer and glitter are different and many MUA/beauticians often get perplexed here. Glitter is vivid and the shimmer is subtle. But for some Instagram-fame MUAs, “I know it better baby” will surely create a mess. Expert makeup artists never put glitter on eyelids for enhancing the look. They prefer stroking a brush for giving a subtle shimmer. If your MUA didi is insisting on glitter, simply say NO to her.
2. Litchi Red Lips
Might be a hardcore feminist who would exacerbate red lipsticks and their supremacy but when it is about the D-Day, never approach such people for makeup advice. Litchi red lips, on the most cherished day, would bend you out of the shape. Seeing the album years later would make you question the choice of MUA.
3. The Wrong Contrast
Applying the foundation is mandatory for making the rest of the makeup layers stable. For the obsession of the fair-skin tone, a Tamil bride might become the centre of attraction for puns. Expert MUAs and beauticians emphasize using the ideal skin tone foundation as per the complexion. It must be applied in a manner that balances the tone and doesn’t shine in the photographs.
4. Overworking on Eyebrows
In Tamil matrimony, brides of today’s generation know to strike a balance in the attire they carry on their wedding day. Although things remain vivid and subtle, minor makeup mishaps can occur at any time. While emphasizing the close-up makeup part, beauticians must keep the eyebrows natural. For a blade-look, it is suggested to use pencils for the details. This will help in giving eyebrows the right sharpness.
5. Extra Powder Is Not Allowed
After an MUA/beautician is done with the primer and foundation bedecking, there comes applying a few strokes of free powder. This is the optimal choice for every Tamil bride with oily skin to carry the makeup for hours. But overdoing the powder part will emanate as a mask on the face and spoil the look. Check out if the beautician is taking the leap for an extra layer of powder.
6. Trends Aren’t Permanent
If you’re a die-hard fan of Alia Bhatt’s Tamil bride look in 2 States, make sure it isn’t imitated identically. Tamil beauty comes in all shapes and sizes, but fixing to certain trends in B-Town style might create a blunder. Remember that trends come and go (not every time) and one should be cautious while choosing suitable makeup trends.
7. The Bronze Error
Highlighting the cheekbones to provide a look with sharp cheeks and jawline is the perfect way to add more charm to one’s beauty. But, a bronze look on cheeks will compliment only when done right. Usually, too much bronzing will give a polished look in a weird way. That’s something no Tamil bride would prefer having on her Big Day.
Final Words
There are several makeup mistakes & blunders MUAs and beauticians commit during dolling up a Tamil bride. Some mistakes are highlighted widely, whereas, some go unnoticed. Just to play safe and avoid any makeup blunder, every Tamil bride must keep an eye on her choice of makeup trends.
