The Perfect Bridal Makeup Tips



You have met the man of your dreams, fallen in love with him and even got the marriage date fixed. And now, you are eagerly waiting for the day of your union, when the two of you would become each other’s, forever. In the meantime, you have started with the preparations, right from choosing the venue to selecting the bridal dress. So you’ve got the guy, the dress , and the flowers and chosen a hairstyle, but what about your make-up? Here are a few tips that will ensure you look picture perfect when walking down the isle to say ‘I-do’!
Perfect Wedding Make Up Tips
Beauty Regime Before The Big Day
  • Beauty Regime before the big day To get that glowing, fresh-faced look, there are a few things to consider a few weeks prior to your wedding day. A skin and nail care plan should be started about 6 weeks before the wedding. Talk to your beautician about having regular facials and manicures.
  • Don’t get too much sun before your wedding. Sunburns and peeling skin shouldn’t sabotage your wedding day. Consider Spray-on-tanning, a 100% natural way to achieve a tan. Ask Cristina about Golden Tropics Spray on Tan.
Body Mind Spirit
  • Don’t forget the importance of Body-Mind-Spirit. What’s going on inside is just as important to looking good. As you know preparing for a wedding is very stressful and if you are not looking after yourself by not getting enough sleep or not eating properly it will without a doubt show on your face!
  • If you are really stressed out consider having a relaxing massage once a week for a month and also a day before the wedding. Burn some relaxing essential oils around the house to help calm your nerves.
  • If you are having trouble sleeping try Valerian tea before going to bed, available from most health food shops.
Trial
  • When you have chosen a makeup artist, organize a trial around 1-2 months before the wedding.
  • It is a good idea to have your bridesmaids with you to give their input and also advise what kind of look they want themselves.
  • Have pictures from magazines to show the makeup artist various looks that appeal to you.
  • Mention if you have any skin problems or allergies etc or if there are any particular ways you wear your make-up.
  • If you are having a day – time wedding it is ideal to organize the trial during the day as this will give you a better idea as to how the make-up will look.
Have Pictures and Swatches of Wedding Dress and Bridesmaid’s Dresses
  • Having pictures of the dresses will give the make-up artist a starting point for designing the perfect look for you and your bridesmaids.
  • Fabric swatches of the wedding dress and bridesmaid’s dresses and a description of the flowers will also help when choosing colors. The colors should compliment both the dress and the flowers.
What Look To Go With
  • The style you choose for your wedding make-up will ultimately depend on your personal preference, but there are some other factors to consider:
  • The time of the ceremony -is it a day or evening wedding? A lighter, more natural look is more suited to a day wedding and a more dramatic look is suited to an evening one.
  • What time of year is your wedding? If you are having a Spring/Summer wedding, go for bright, pastel colors. Warm, deeper shades will lend themselves well to a winter wedding.
  • Your skin tones and hair color? There are two color palettes- warm or cool.
  • If you are Blond or fair skinned, cool tones of grey, blue, soft pink and lilac are ideal.
  • If you are brunette or olive skinned, warm neutral tones of brown, taupe, burgundy & red are more suited.
  • Remember your make up should be a little more dramatic than your everyday make-up as you can tend to look pale and wash-out in photos if your make-up doesn’t stand out.
Your Face
  • Foundations with yellow undertones work best with flash photography.
  • Keep away from shimmer highlighters as this look will not show up well in photos and give a reflective shine.
  • Use a light dusting of translucent powder to prevent any unwanted shine.
  • Ask your make-up artist to use a bronzing powder to warm your skin tone and give a natural glow. Place on areas where the sun would naturally hit e.g. Forehead, cheeks and bridge of nose.
  • Blush- use more than not enough.
Your Eyes
  • The eye-area should be soft and natural with no heavy, dark lines.
  • Keep away from up to the minute eyeshades and make-up trends as you will regret it when you look at your photos in years to come!
  • Use a brow pencil slightly darker than your hair color and avoid heavy, dark shadows.
Your Lips
  • Use a lip-liner the same color as your lipstick and avoid a noticeable or dark lip line.
  • The color on your lips will depend on whether you are a warm or cool color palette.
  • It is more flattering to define one area i.e. If you want dark, defined eyes, go for a lighter lip shade and if you want dark/bright lips go for natural, light eyes.
Timing
  • Ask your make-up artist to arrive as early as possible and allow plenty of time to get the job done. The last thing you want is to be rushed on your wedding day.
Touch Up Tips
  • Ask your mum or one of your bridesmaids to carry a powder compact, tissues and lipstick for touch ups during the day.
