Wedding Makeup Made Simple
Every bride wants to look flawless on their wedding day and choosing the right makeup look is only a small part of it. With this in mind, here are four tips to a flawless finish.
Be Inspired
If you want to look your best on your wedding day but you have no idea where to start in terms of colours that complement your wedding theme, you can find inspiration online. Pinterest is the perfect platform on which to collate your favourite looks. You can browse the pages of Pinterest and create boards that feature your favourite makeup inspirations. Social media sites are great for fashion forward brides that want to keep up to date with the latest bridal trends.
Find a Makeup Artist
If you have decided to have your makeup professionally applied on your wedding day, it is advisable to start your search for a makeup artist as soon as you have decided on a theme. Choose a makeup artist that specialises in bridal makeup and don’t forget to ask around for recommendations. This way you can rest assured that they are only going to use the most coveted industry products to create your look. Most makeup artists will purchase their cosmetics from a reputable online source such as Capital Hair and Beauty but a recommendation can give you peace of mind. Book a makeup trial and use this opportunity to discuss your requirements and give your makeup artist an idea of your wedding theme.
Step up your Skincare Routine
You could be wearing the most expensive makeup on the market but if your skin is suffering, the finished look won’t be as polished. Six months before you walk down the aisle, step up your skincare routine and stick to it religiously. Cleanse, tone and moisturise twice a day and exfoliate your skin once a week. Remember that while general upkeep is important when trying to achieve a gorgeous glow, isn’t all about the skincare that you use.
Drink More Water
While there are many cosmetics that can ensure you skin sparkles on your special say, you can give your makeup artist a helping hand. On the run up to your big day, remember to increase your fluid intake and drink up to eight glasses of water a day. This will ensure that your skin is well hydrated and give you a natural dewy glow that all brides covet.
