Think about your wedding day make up carefully as the photos will be with you for a very long time.
You may love bright red or pink lipstick at the moment but think about how it will look in years to come when you look back at your wedding pictures.
Aim to go for a more timeless look.
If you are doing your own make up, then spend time experimenting with different looks. Keep it simple and flawless but interesting and use good, quality products that you know will last you throughout your wedding day.
5 main make up essentials are, primer, concealer, blusher, lipstick and good mascara.
If you opt for false eye lashes, make sure you use a quality product or a good eyelash consultant to put them on for you.
If you are using a make up specialist, then make sure you book a few practice runs with them and don’t say you like it when you don’t.
I have seen many a bride come out of the make up room and go straight to the bathroom to re-do her make up herself because the artist has gone over the top or not enough.
Be honest with the artist. At the end of the day, you are paying for her services and she wants a good outcome for her business so work together as much as you need to until you feel you have the right look for your special day.
