Tips and tricks:
- Get bridal makeup trials: You should be sure about what looks good on you, never wait till the last day. During the trials make sure you are wearing a similar color outfit to that of your wedding day.
- Keep your skin healthy: Get a face clean-up done for a few months before the wedding. Get facials done as well. Apart from that follow a day and night routine for your skin. Avoid using a lot of products to make your skin healthy. The most important thing is ‘drink a lot of water.’
- Get an expert: You don’t want to risk your bridal look, it is a very special day. Be sure about the make-up artist, get confirmation from friends, relatives, and their social media. An experienced artist can bring out the best in you. Make sure the artist has worked with your type of skin and hair.
- Waterproof makeup: Use waterproof makeup, irrespective of the season. There will be photographers with their lights which tend to heat up and night spoil the makeup.
