The recent union of Daphne (@daphnemaia) and Nicholas (@furryphotos) was 60s inspired and the beautiful couple took great pains to theme everything about their wedding to the 60s.
It was admirable and a very beautiful wedding because every single element of the Daphnick wedding down to the smallest detail, including flowers, seating tags, table displays and decorative postcards, was carefully styled to the 60s. Naturally, to complete the 60s wedding, the guests had to be dressed in 60s hair styles and makeup.
From the list of suggestions they gave, I had originally wanted to do an Audrey Hepburn, but was lucky I didnt because the gloves wouldnt have been a pretty sight sticking to my arms no thanks to perspiration. Another style icon of the 60s was Twiggy and I thus adopted Twiggy’s iconic makeup look.
I did some research and figured out how to do a Twiggy inspired makeup look. The focus is all on the eyes. Here’s how to do a Twiggy’s 60s inspired makeup:
- Apply dark eye shadow on the crease and eyelids.
- Define the eyes with thick black eyeliner ending in a wing tip.
- Add dark and voluminous fluttery eyelashes whether with volume mascara or a pair of falsies.
- Blend dark eyeshadow on the bottom eyelids for a smokey eye effect.
- Draw clean bottom eyelashes with a pencil.
- Fill in the eyebrows to get strong eyebrows.
- Blusher is not necessary. So, skip the blusher unless it’s a very light pink one.
- Twiggy’s make up style had nude lips. Conceal your lips before applying lip balm or choose a matt nude lip colour to finish the look.
