Hi Hive!!
Today I had a makeup trial. I am happy with the results! Especially the foundation and lipstick. I love the shading on the eyes...I'm just not sure if I definitely want to use the color. I'm a little worried it may be too dark/dramatic. But at the same time I do like the color just not sure if it's "bridal", if you know what I mean :)
I would LOVE to hear your opinions on it!
I think it's lovely! It's very sweet and I think it's very bridal.
I think it's gorgeous! And I don't think it's too dark at all and rather accentuates your eyes beautifullly. No one is going to doubt you're a bride, especially once you've donned the outfit.
Do you feel it doesn't go with your dress?
whoa! so pretty! I think it will look fine for your wedding...will it be at night? If it's in the morning/daytime, it maaaay be a little dark?
You look beautiful I love the way your eyes just pop. Your skin looks silky. What kind of make up did you use?
@MissHelen: I keep telling myself that...once I have my dress on it will look "normal". I do think it will go with my dress. I was going for the "classic" look mainly because my dress is very classic, and timeless. I think that because I'm not used to wearing this much eye makeup it is taking me some time to get used to the look :)
Thanks ladies for your kind words! It's so nice to hear other brides opinions :) You're definitely making me feel less worried about it being dark :)
@MissSewing: The ceremony is @ 5 pm. So kinda night :)
@thefuturemrsgibbs: She used airbrush makeup and I believe it was MAC. I've never used MAC products but i think I will now! haha and I highly recommend the airbrush...it's so light I don't even feel like I have makeup on :)
It's not too much in my opinion. I like the smokey eye look and I will probably be doing something similar with my makeup.
Amanda it looks amazing! I don't think it's too dramatic. In person, I'm sure it looks like a lot, but on camera and for photos it looks just right!
Also, you want it to last during the day. Great makeup...I say you've found your make up stylist!
You look great, i really think that is the perfect look for your wedding day. 
Very, very pretty!! No worries, you look beautiful! You'll appreciate a "darker" eye in your photos. It will photograph better.
I love it! Especially the eyes. I think being "bridal" is about the only time you can really have dramatic looking eyes. hehee
I think you look beautiful. I love how your eyes are defined but it's subtle and classic. Gorgeous!
Btw, are you wearing fake lashes or are your natural lashes just that fantastic? What mascara did she use?
Oh it's beyond perfection- I love the smoky eye. It doesn't look gawdy (which can happen with the less experienced makeup artists IMO) it looks very sosphisticated!
Wow! It looks great! I don't think it's too dark, either! Check makeup artist off your list!
i like it - your eye are wonderfully wide open and its going to photograph amazingly well
and great eyebrows as well btw!
is your dress white? i think it would help to see you with your makeup with the same color shirt on as your dress. either way i think it looks really nice...and i am not a makeup person :)
I was also going to ask what time your wedding is, but I think it would be very appropriate for an evening reception. You're gorgeous!
So pretty! I think it's just dark enough, i'd probably not go any darker, but it's not too dark now, just right!!! Love It!x
Thanks everyone!
@jessie516: I am wearing fake lashes. I have pretty long lashes to begin with, but I'm glad I went with the fake ones...it completed the look. and I believe she used Maybelline water proof mascara...a lot of it!
I think you look really beautiful. I love the color on the eyes. Your lips are neutral enough that it's not overwhelming.
Thanks Ms Buttons!
I've decided i'm going to stick with the color. I think it brings out the color of my eyes...and it's not dark!
Thanks Hive for helping me make the decision :) Your the best!
Your makeup artist did a lovely job blending the colors~ It's better to go for more because the camera flash will suck up all that color. You look beautiful~~
youre make-up looks amazing!! I love MAC! Do you know the lip color she used? It looks great on you - I like that it is a hint of color and not over-done
I LOVE it!!!!!! It makes me want to show your pic to my makeup artist! :)
