Here are 3 tips to keep your wedding day makeup looking flawless ALL day and night, even through dancing and the happy tears! ✨

Tip #1: Find an experienced makeup artist that uses the correct products to ensure your makeup will last all day and is knowledgeable on bridal makeup. This is not the time to use your bestie who loves doing makeup and has never done bridal makeup before. Bridal makeup is way different than just doing your friend’s makeup for fun, or even doing editorial or TV makeup. As a bridal makeup artist, we use products and techniques that will guarantee your makeup stays in place all day and night and will be waterproof (no tear streaks here!)

Tip #2: Skin prep is EVERYTHING! 1 year-8 months out from your wedding, start getting those frequent hydrating facials. They will help keep your skin hydrated and glowy for a beautiful makeup application! Keep your skin hydrated by cleaning it and moisturizing it religiously. 4-2 weeks before your wedding, get a hydrafacial with dermaplaning to ensure makeup goes on smoothly and doesn’t stick to that pesky peach fuzz! And above all, drink plenty of water!💧

Tip #3: Avoid too much sun exposure! ☀️ It can be super dehydrating and a bad burn can lead to serious skin issues down the road. Protect your skin by wearing SPF or use clothing that will protect you from the sun. If you want a beautiful tan for your wedding day, get a spray tan! Spray tans have always had a bad rep, but trust me, they have come a very long way and you will NOT be looking orange or patchy on your wedding day! Click here to book your spray tan with me!

Remember: Drink plenty of water, use your SPF, cleanse your skin, and start those hydrating facials! If you take great care of your skin, your makeup will look stunning all day and night!
