Face

#1 Moisturiser

 Moisturiser

Skin prep is more important than the makeup itself. Let that sink in. We aren’t just saying this because of how skin prep can benefit your skin in the long term, but also because of how beautifully makeup sits on a properly moisturized, hydrated surface. When doing makeup for your wedding functions, you can also exfoliate for a better base. Follow up with a mist, serum, and moisturizer. Let the skincare be for 15 minutes or so, and move on to your primers and foundation next. You can try these facial creams: 

  • Lakme Peach Milk Moisturiser – Rs.105/- for 65 grams (Buy here)  
  • The Face Shop Rice & Ceramide Moisturizing Cream – Rs.782/- for 50ml (Buy here)
  • Embryolisse Concentrated Lait Crème – Rs.1980/- for 75ml (Get here)
  • Laneige Water Bank – Rs.2390/- for 50ml (Buy here)
  • La Roche-Posay – Rs.2600/- for 100ml (Buy here)
  • Clinique Moisture Surge – Rs.2230/- for 30ml (Buy here)
Tips Before Buying A Moisturiser
  • Consider your skin type: Dry skin needs a thick, deeply moisturizing formula, while normal skin will work well with a light moisturizer that has smooth hydrating ingredients. At the same time, those with acne-prone skin need to invest in a face cream that would respect their skin’s sensitive balance and not aggravate any existing acne.
  • Pricier isn’t always better. If you’re thinking of splurging on a moisturizer, go ahead. But it’s not always necessary. Sometimes, even budget buys work well. I, for example, need a gel-based moisturizer and Laneige water bank has been my go-to for years. But my bhabhi loves her Face Shop cream and it works well for her. So try different options before sticking to the higher-end one.
  • Take into account the scent. The moisturizer smell will be very close to your nose and you’d want to like it.
  • Read the ingredient list. See if the cream offers any other benefits other than moisturization. Some people are also allergic to a few ingredients, it’s helpful to check what’s in the moisturizer before making any sort of investment. Some facial creams also come with actives like Vitamin C and E to offer a boost of anti-oxidant benefits, automatically giving them an upper hand over other creams.

#2 Primer

Primer

Given the long ceremonies & events in Indian weddings, you’d likely want your makeup to stay put and refreshing for hours. Applying a primer base right before you start makeup can help exactly with the same! Consider primer as a canvas on which your products will sit and stay on well for a while. Having said that, it’s important to pick a primer that goes with your skin type. Oily skin beauties should pick something that controls the oil production, while dry needs a product that nourishes and hydrates. For combination skin, a bit of both is the key. See our picks below, sorted as per your skin type: 




  • Loreal Base Magique for Oily Skin – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • Revlon Photoready Primer for Dry Skin – Rs.1149/- for 27ml (Buy here)
  • Benefit Porefessional Primer For Oily/ Combination Skin – Rs.1240/- for 7.5ml (Buy here)
  • MAC Strobe Cream For Dry/ Normal Skin – Rs.1050/- for 15ml (Buy here from MAC India Website) 

If you want a MAC bridal makeup kit, keep checking their newly-launched website for India. They have a 10% off for first-time buyers and frequently run limited edition kit discounts on items clubbed together. 

What To Know Before Buying A Primer?

Knowing your skin type is extremely important before buying a primer. Those with oily skin need to have a primer built for the specific purpose to control oil and hence, keep the makeup intact for hours. Dry skin beauties, however, need something hydrating so the makeup doesn’t look flakey and cakey. Another thing to keep in mind is to shop according to skin concerns. There are primers that conceal and fill wrinkles and fine lines, and there are primers that add glow to the base makeup. Pick one that adds value to your makeup.

#3 Foundation

MAC Bridal Makeup Kit

A nice, dewy foundation is the backbone of an amazing makeup look. Just look at the name! There are many different kinds of foundations in the market, and it can be confusing to pick one. So, here are our 4 best picks. 

  • Faces Canada Ultime Pro HD (To lengthen the stay, do a good skin prep and follow up with a compact powder and setting spray) – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation (One of the best budget foundations that work for all skin types, blends easily, and doesn’t crack for hours) – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • MAC Prolongwear Nourishing Waterproof Foundation (It works for dry skin ideally. But, if you have good, hydrating skincare in place, then you can go for any foundation on the list. If you have oily skin, use a suitable primer, then blend the product) – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • Estee Lauder Double Wear (High-end product, but delivers the promise with every penny spent. You can buy a mini version for the bridal makeup kit) – Rs.1800/- for 15ml (Buy here)

When chosen rightfully, a good foundation can even out your skin tone, blend smoothly to give a skin-like effect, cover your acne scars, and form a smooth base for your blush, contour, and highlight. 

#4 Concealer 

Concealer Bridal Makeup Kit

After the foundation comes to the concealer. They might not seem like an important part of your makeup, but oh boy, aren’t you mistaken? A good concealer can help you look wide awake, highlight the areas of your face, disguise blemishes, and give you a good brow shape. Apply some on the under eyes, middle of the forehead, down your nose bone, around your chin, and any other dark spots to blur any skin discolorations. Some makeup maestros also recommend applying a line of concealer just below the contour line on the cheeks to define the cheekbones better and not let the contour look strong. 




  • Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • LA Girl Pro HD Concealer – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • Tarte Shape Tape Concealer – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)
  • Huda Beauty Overachiever Concealer – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here

#5 Contour

Contour

Contouring is the secret behind sculpted cheekbones, sharper jawline, and defined nose. It can be a game-changer product in your bridal makeup kit and one that can make your wedding day pictures memorable. While picking a contour, you can go for a cream contour or a powder one. The former takes more time to blend but stays on longer & stronger. When done right, it can give a professional makeup appearance within seconds. Although, if you’re a beginner and have less time on your hands, stick to powder contouring products. Make sure you add setting spray after using powder contour to make it last longer. Here are our recommendations: 

  • Wet n Wild Color Icon Contouring Palette – Rs.549/- for 12.49 grams (Buy here)
  • Makeup Revolution Contour Kit – Rs.750/- for 10.8 grams (Buy here)

  • Hoola Bronzer – Rs.794/- for 15ml (Buy here)

#6 Blush

 Blush Bridal Makeup Kit

We’ve all been there! Using our lipsticks since school time to just add that flushed glow on our face. And that might have worked then, you should know that doubling lipsticks as blush can cause acne. Something you certainly don’t want to deal with on your wedding day. Add a good blush in powder, cream, or liquid form to your bridal makeup kit items. We recommend these four: 




  • Sugar Cosmetics Mini Blush – Rs.298/- for 4 grams (Buy here)

#7 Highlighter

Highlighter Bridal Makeup Kit

While you work hard for that bridal glow for months and might have been successful to get it, the tiring days of wedding revelries can snatch a bit of that glow away. To bring it back, there’s nothing that will work better than a highlighter. When applied strategically across the entire face, the illuminating particles reflect light giving you a glow-from-within. Use a fan brush to strobe a bit of product on the cheekbones, the center of the forehead, cupid’s bow, bridge of the nose, above & beneath the brows, and center of your chin. Our editors recommend these six highlighters from the market. 

  • Iconic London Brick Shimmer Highlighter – Rs.197/- for 8.1 grams (Buy here)

  • Shiseido Synchro Skin Illuminator – Rs.2400/- for 40ml (Buy here)

#8 Setting Powder

Setting Powder

After you’re done with the base makeup – foundation and concealer – dab some setting powder on your entire face, concentrating more on the areas you put concealer. The setting powder should be put before applying highlight & blush. Check out these branded setting powders:

P.S.: You can skip this product if you aren’t planning to go strong on concealer. Just set everything with a good setting spray instead. Although, if you have extra oily skin, a combination of setting powder + setting spray is killer to make the makeup stay on the face. 

#9 Setting Spray

#11 Mascara

Sure you’d want to employ their feathery beauty on the main events, but for other times when you want to keep it mellow yet strong, mascara is an amazing pick. Plus, the options are endless.

#12 Eye Shadow

Eye shadow

Creating some basic eye looks is easy-peasy these days. Just open Youtube and type *your favorite eye look* and you’ll get hundreds of results. You can also type an eyeshadow palette name so you can create eye makeup from just one palette. An eye shadow look plays a pivotal role in bringing your makeup together, add dimension to one’s eyes, and enhance your attractiveness. To create stunning eye makeup though, you need to have the right tools. Here are our top 5 eye shadow recommendations for a bridal makeup kit. 




  • Wet n Wild Eyeshadow Palette – Nude Awakening (Get here for Rs.749/-)
  • Sugar Cosmetics Blend The Rules Palette (Get here for Rs.1139/-)

  • Pixi by Petra Dream Eyeshadow Palette (Get here for Rs.2990/-)
  • Huda Beauty The New Nude Palette (Get here for Rs.5375/-)

#13 Eye Primer

Eye Primer

If your liner fades away easily, there are chances that your eye shadow will budge too! To prevent the same, all you need is to dab a good eye primer that creates a good base for your eye makeup and makes it stay put for longer hours. Don’t substitute face primer for an eye primer. If you don’t want to invest separately in an eye primer, use a concealer instead to create an even base for your eye makeup. Face primers can cause a slippery surface on the thin skin of eyes and can wreak havoc on your eye makeup. Try these two eye primers from the market: 

  • Wet n Wild Photofocus Eyeshadow Primer – Rs.585/- for 10 ml (Buy here)
  • Milani Eyeshadow Primer – Rs.895/- for 9 ml (Buy here)
  • Anastasia Beverly Hills Mini Eye Primer – Rs.1490/- for 7 ml (Buy here)

Lipstick is one of the main items in your bridal makeup kit. Having just one shade won’t do the job though! You’ll need to have different shades – red and nudes especially, but also some good browns and plums. Check out these lipsticks in the market – from budget to high-end.

#20 Lip Scrub

Lip Scrub

Honestly, a good DIY lip scrub with coffee & honey would work as great as a market-bought lip scrub. But with the wedding right around the corner, homemade recipes just seem like another task on hand. Although, if you’re committed to them, there’s absolutely no need to spend bucks on a lip scrub. You can whip up some DIY scrubs like coffee + honey, salt + almond oil, and sugar + vaseline for your lips. And if you’re looking to invest in store-bought scrubs, here are our recommendations. 




  • Urbanbotanics Lip Scrub – Rs.349/- for 40 grams (Get here)
  • Nicolips Lip Scrub – Rs.385/- for 20 grams (Get here)

Just like makeup sits better on an exfoliated, moisturized skin, so do lip products. Scrub & moisturize your lips for at least 15 minutes before you put on your lip liners, lipsticks, and glosses.

#21 Lip Balm

Lip Balm Bridal Makeup Kit

Right when you’re engaged, sleeping with a good lip balm on should become a part of your routine. If you’re prone to flaky, dry lips, apply the lip balm several times over the days. Try these:

#24 Hand Cream 

Hand Cream

You’d want your husband-to-be to complement your soft hands when he holds them, don’t you? A hand cream that nourishes, protects, and heals should become a part of your bridal beauty regimen. This step is a must if you’re getting married in the winter months when the hands are more prone to drying. Plus, the ongoing pandemic requires you to wash & sanitize your hands multiple times, which can further damage the skin. Keeping a moisturizing hand cream with you helps ensure that your hands stay hydrated at all times. Here are two we recommend: 




  • Neutrogena Norwegian Formula Hand Cream (Enriched with the concentrated formulation of glycerin, this fragrance-free cream is a good pick for brides who experience dry, chapped hands often. Priced at ~ Rs.400/- for 56 grams) (Get here)
  • The Body Shop Strawberry Hand Cream (A luxuriously thick hand cream that moisturizes and imparts a beautiful strawberry fragrance. Priced at Rs.945/- for 100 ml, this isn’t a budget option but a good product to invest the bucks surely) (Get here)

Miscellaneous

#25 Makeup Sponge

 Makeup Sponge

The one tool you definitely need in your makeup bag is a good beauty blender. These blenders can help you blend in foundations, concealers, and contours. You might want to pick the one on the lesser side of the price spectrum, but those can pick up a lot of your branded products and will not blend well. Consider a good beauty blender as a required investment to get full use of your high-end products. Try these ones from the market:

  • Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge – Rs.529/- (Buy here)
  • Wiseshe Blending Sponge With Mini Blender – Rs.720/- (Get here)
  • The Orignal Beauty Blender – Rs.2000/- (Buy here)

#26 Makeup Tools

Makeup Brushes Bridal Makeup Kit Items

A beauty blender can get most of the work done, but you’d need a few tools to get that perfect makeup on! Like a contouring brush, highlighter fan brush, and eye makeup tools. Investing in the right makeup tools ensures that your branded products aren’t wasted (as some brushes pick up a lot of products only for them to fall or soak it in) and glide on properly on the respective areas. We suggest you invest in these 3 and the beauty blenders for a complete bridal makeup kit. Here are our suggestions: 




#27 Hand Mirror

Hand Mirror

A bathroom mirror can get the job done, true, but if you really want to cut down the specifics and as a bride, you really should, a handheld mirror is a must-have in your bridal makeup kit. Whether you have to focus on drawing those brows or lining your lips, a makeup mirror can make all the difference.

FAQ’s 

Which Bridal Makeup Kit Is Best For Weddings?

Instead of investing in a single bridal makeup kit from a single makeup brand, we’d suggest choosing products from different brands depending on your skin type, usability, and budget. One product from a brand, let’s say a foundation, might work quite well for you, but another might not suit your preferences. Another thing to keep in mind is the budget. You might want to splurge a lot on the foundation or moisturizer, but the same might not be true for an eyeshadow kit, so split your money among high-end and affordable picks smartly. So, accordingly, curate a kit for yourself. Some of the best brands to include in your bridal makeup kit are Faces Canada, Lakme, Revlon, MAC, Makeup Revolution, Colorbar, and Wet n Wild. 

What Are The Things Required For A Bridal Makeup Kit?

You’d need many varied items for your bridal makeup kit. Skincare will have to include a good face wash, serum, eye cream, toner, and moisturizer. Makeup includes primer, foundation, concealer, blush, a good set of brushes, a good eyeliner/ kohl, eyeshadow kit, mascara, and lipsticks. Depending on your needs, you can also invest in a good contour kit, false eyelashes, and a highlighter. 

What’s The Average Cost Of A Bridal Makeup Kit?

A bridal makeup kit can average out to be around 10,000 or so. Of course, if you’re choosing all high-end products, the pricing can easily reach 50k. But a mix of good high-end and affordable products will average out to be around 15,000/-. The cost also depends on how many products you invest in. Some people are just blessed with natural brows and lashes, so they will want to skip it. Others would want a natural look, so they will not invest in a contour or a big eyeshadow palette. On average, you can make a good bridal makeup kit in 10k to 25k. 

How Do You Do Your Own Bridal Makeup?

Yes, you can do your own bridal makeup. Not on the main day unless you’re a professional MUA yourself. But on the small functions or even your mehendi, you can totally do your own bridal makeup. We’re no experts ourselves, but we’re experts in scouring perfect information for our readers. So, find below a few videos where youtube vloggers are demonstrating a good wedding makeup tutorial that you can easily DIY. 

Final Thoughts: 

There’s no shortage of decisions to be made on your wedding day. With this bridal makeup kit items list featuring all the products you’d need on the wedding revelries, we hope we’ve made your wedding planning easier. Another word of advice is to have a handy kit/ pouch (like here) so you can keep the bag ready around a month or so ago and don’t forget anything.
