From radiant skin to the perfect wedding day foundation, and a flawless, long-lasting make-up look, finding the right products can enhance your natural beauty and make you feel stunning from the inside out.

Whether you’re aiming for a look that’s ‘you, only better’, or ‘full glam’, the task of selecting beauty products for your wedding day is exciting and important, especially if you want to ensure your make-up lasts for the whole day and night – and the products are suitable for your skin.

So here they are, 10 wedding make-up products that are universally celebrated as some of the best to use on your wedding day.

Eylure Lashes

Believe it or not, but for many, their wedding day is often the first time some brides will have ever worn eyelashes – so it’s all about enhancing your look, rather than changing it. This is why Eylure is such a popular option for brides on their wedding day. With the reputation of creating the first ever false lashes for movie stars, the team at Eylure have perfected the art of the perfect lash length – and work hard to design and perfect each of their false eyelashes.

Which lashes are best for your wedding day?

The no-trim ¾ Length No.002, ¾ Length No.008 or the Light & Wispy No.117 are said to be the best lashes for your wedding day, as these styles use an all natural fiber and imitate your natural lashes so give a natural, wispy look.

Make-up artists will also sometimes just add a few clusters for a really blended natural look, and in this case, the Eylure Cluster Trios are perfect!

In terms of longevity, Eylure have it in the bag. Created in London in 1947 by two make-up artists working in the film industry, the team have perfected the glue and application technique, meaning that from make-up artists to first-timers, everyone can apply Eylure eyelashes with ease.
