Bride's Beauty Basics (nothing to do with wedding favors! lol)
Do I really have to tell you that most brides cry at some point during their wedding? Do I have to tell you that you will be kissing, kissing, kissing all day long? If you know this and more, then you will need the following tips to get your through the day looking fresh and beautiful.I’m sure you read my tips on carrying your ‘emergency bag’ with you at all times, so I won’t repeat that. But there will be other emergencies throughout the day, from smearing your lipstick to having your bustle stuck after you went to the bathroom! Don’t shake your head, it’s happened!
So, first things first – you must assign someone to be your checker. What do I mean by that? Make sure that you have someone that will keep an eye on you all day and let you know if there is something wrong or if you need a touch-up. I would suggest it’s not someone in your wedding party because they will be very involved in the wedding. Choose someone that is very observant and is sitting fairly close to the dais table so they can see you. But, please, from experience, do not choose someone that will want to bother you every second because she wants the attention. That will totally ruin your day worse than a stuck bustle!
Make sure if you do your own make-up or if you have a make-up artist apply your make-up that you/they use waterproof make-up. You “will” cry during the day. You don’t want to have to reapply your eye and face make-up all day long. This will save you tremendously. Do the same with long-lasting lipstick. Apply it at the beginning of the day and then touch-up as needed. Before buying, just make sure it says “all day” lipcolor or something to that affect.
Lastly, the most important beauty tip is to do a ‘dry run’ with make-up and hair. If you are doing both of those yourself or having a friend do it, then it will be easy. If you are having a professional do your hair and make-up, then speak to them and see if they will do this. Normally, this is included in the price.
Hope this helps! Relax. Stress causes dark circles and bags under your eyes. So last little tip…use cold cucumber slices placed under your eyes.
