  1. Using a large, fluffy brush, apply a good foundation to camouflage redness and imperfections and give your skin a flawless, even finish.

  2. For definition in your wedding photos, you’ll want to wear some eye makeup, but not have it overpower your dramatic red lips. To emphasize your eyes without going overboard, brush a taupe shadow over your lids, then apply a darker shade in the creases. Finally, line your upper lashlines with a subtle brown pencil.

  3. Brush a soft wash of pink blush on the apples of your cheeks.

  4. As the finishing touch, apply a lasting red lip color straight from the tube. Try CoverGirl Outlast Longwear Lipstick in Red Siren.
