She got down to business as she documented the make-up process to complete the finished look – which included sparkling eyeshadow, foundation and contour.
“My beautiful bride,” she wrote as she finished off the final look.
However, the video didn’t land well with all of Selena’s followers who were saddened by the bride’s request to look like someone else.
“Different person? This is kinda sad tho,” one user wrote.

“This made me really sad,” another penned. “I want to look back and see myself, not a different person.”
A third agreed: “Should’ve replied with, ‘No, let’s enhance your beauty!’”
Selena – who has gained over 14,000 followers on her Instagram account @selenamup – took to the comments to defend her decision.
