Step One: The first essential step to any beautiful makeup look is to treat the skin. Since Abby is young and has a naturally beautiful complexion, Dior Makeup Artist Tina Safonova prepped the skin with One Essential which detoxifies the skin and enhances the skincare benefits of your current skincare regimen by up to 400%.
She then followed with Hydra Life Serum, Sorbet Crème, and Eye Crème and applied Diorskin Nude Foundation in shade 020 with a Foundation Brush to the entire face to even the complexion. To cover discoloration or darkness under the eyes, she applied Diorskin Nude Concealer in shade 002 with a Concealer Brush. To set the look and reduce shine from a humid climate, she applied Diorskin Nude Powder in shade 020.
To create a dewy look perfect for the beach, Tina mixed Skinflash in shade 001 with the lighter shades of Diorskin Shimmer Star in Amber Diamond with a Cheek Brush and applied to the eye contour. For an extra touch of color, Tina applied the pink shade of Harmonie Blush in shade 001 to the apples of the cheeks.
Step Two: To create a natural yet polished look, Tina primed the lid with Skinflash in shade 001. Priming is essential for wedding day makeup because it helps hold the shadow for the entire day.
She then applied Dior 5 Colour Eyeshadow in Incognito. She applied the beige shade (top left of the palette) by pressing the shadow softly onto the lid with small yet firm strokes. To open and brighten the eye, Tina applied the pink shade (middle of the palette) to the corner of the eye. To add a touch of romance, she mixed the brown and grey shades (bottom right and left of the palette) and blended them into the crease. To highlight the eye, Tina applied the shimmering white shade (top right of the palette) directly under the brows for a hint of shimmer that photographs beautifully. To naturally fill in the brows, Tina applied Diorshow Browstyler in Universal Brown with short, soft strokes.
To add a bit of intensity, Tina softly outlined the lashes with Dior Waterproof Eyeliner in Intense Brown. Be sure to keep the liner close to the lash line and apply softly in between the lashes. Tina smudged the bottom liner with her ring finger to soften the look. For the finishing touch, Tina applied Diorshow Lash Maximizer as a primer which also thickens and lengthens the lashes and then two coats of award winning Diorshow Waterproof Mascara in Chestnut.
Step Three: For a picture perfect smile, Tina lined Abby’s lips with Dior Lip Liner in Caramel. For staying power, she used the liner to shade lips but left the middle untouched. Leaving the middle open creates a full lip effect.
Tina then used a sponge eyeshadow applicator to press Dior Addict Lipstick in Baby Rose # 561 into the lips. This technique helps with staying power and keeps color on the lips through an entire night of kisses and sips. To finish, Tina applied Dior Addict Ultra Gloss in Pink Trench # 257 to the center of the lips and blotted slightly.

LOVE the model!
Abby! You look BEAUTIFUL!!! Love your look in Dior beauty. I'm going to re-create for my wedding!!! The pink lip is perfect. xoxo!
Flawless and timeless beautiful makeup. You look great!
It looks like the actual product names are missing? There are quite a few sentences that don't make sense otherwise: "Tina Safonova prepped the skin with which detoxifies the skin," "Tina primed the lid with in shade 001," etc. Would like to know the products they're actually using!
Love all the looks!! But the beach chic is especially gorgeous! You look great Abby!
Hi Nan. We think it might be the colors of the links causing the issue. It should read "Tina primed the lid with Skinflash in shade 001" You can download the buying guide which has all the items listed. Our developers are looking into the issue w/ the links not showing for you right now.
Beautiful!! Absolutely love this natural look. Can't wait to re-create it on my wedding day!
Let me tell you I cannot live without my Dior Lip-gloss. I get mine from Macys! I can vouch that it last a long time on your lips it take a while to run out and it's worth the price of about $36.00 Love it!
I should take a tutorial... not the best at make
I love the natural look!
Aww you look so pretty Abby, I love the beachy look. They're all nice though, none look too "done."
Congratulations! I noticed that the photo of you in the canoe was used in Volume 3 of Southern Weddings on the page containing a letter from (and photos of) the publisher. Was this an error?
Gorgeous!
Sigh... my wedding is in September 2011! I wish I could enter. I love all the looks, but 'Beachy Chic' looks great on you Abby!
Just gorgeous- love these looks! Love Dior too - best mascara!
As a makeup artist wedding makeup is one of my favorite things to do. I think it's the excitement of sharing the most important day of someone's life with them even if just for a little while. It makes me happy to see the bride looking so radiant and beautiful after having their makeup professionally done. The Dior makeup here is perfect for a beautiful natural look.
