In today’s video, I’m taking you through a full bridal makeup tutorial on dark skin, from skin preparation to the final bridal glam.

This isn’t just a makeup application video I’m also explaining how to select the right foundation for deeper skin tones using colour theory, how to prepare the skin for a smooth base, and the techniques I use to create a polished, long-lasting bridal makeup look.

In this tutorial, you’ll learn:

• How to properly prep dark skin before makeup
• How to choose and match the right foundation shade
• Foundation selection using colour theory
• How to create a smooth, flawless complexion
• Concealing and correcting on dark skin
• How to achieve a balanced bridal complexion
• Eye makeup and blending techniques
• How to create a soft but glamorous bridal eye
• Brow shaping and definition
• Lashes and eye detailing
• Lip preparation and bridal lip application
• Contouring, highlighting and blush placement
• How to bring the entire bridal look together
• Tips for creating flawless bridal makeup on dark skin

My goal is to help makeup artists become more intentional with their techniques, understand the products they use, and develop the confidence to create beautiful bridal looks on different skin tones.
