Glam Wedding Guest Makeup
Some people look their best in glamorous makeup looks, and if that’s you, then you’d like to try metallics. Give yourself a radiant look with gold highlights and lightly defined eyes. Finish with a glossy lip. A great look that would stand out with black or dark-colored wedding outfits and a hairstyle that pulls your hair away from your face.

Lush Lips Makeup Ideas
Another idea for glam makeup is a lush lip. You can achieve this with the classic red lipstick. Just choose a unique shade that would match or contrast with your outfit, depending on the look you desire. For a delish cherry pout, you can choose a red color with violet or blue undertones.

Choose neutral tones with gold highlights for that bronzed look that will have you glowing throughout the day or night.

Summer Wedding Looks For Guests
Earth tones are a great choice for summer wedding guest makeup. Look and feel as good and natural as possible while the sun bears down. Natural hues are very flattering and bring out all the warmth of your skin. Pair with touches of pink lips and blush or a similar tone for a nice finish.

Simple Makeup To Wear To A Wedding
Simple makeup for a wedding guest is never a bad idea. Apart from the fact that you’d not want to upstage the couple, the beauty in simplicity has an elegance that is difficult to achieve any other way. Consider light airbrush makeup for an effortless look with blended eye makeup and light contouring. A great idea if you’d be wearing a brightly colored dress or even dark and bold colors.
