Be Prepared for your wedding Day Makeup Application.

Nov 1

Wash your face and apply your normal skincare: Make sure all of your left over makeup is removed. You want to start your makeup application with a clean makuep free face.
Think about bra and hair tie lines: If you are wearing a strapless dress put on a strapless bra that morning so that you don’t have bra strap lines when you put your wedding dress on. A lot of us grab a hair tie and put in on our wrist as we head out. Skip that today so that you don’t have any lines on your wrist.
Wear a button down shirt: This allows for a wardrobe change without imperfections to your makuep.

Brush your teeth: You don’t want to risk causing imperfections in your makeup by brushing your teeth after. If you are worried about your breath, have some breath mints on hand.
Assign your phone to someone: Your makeup application is great for you to have a little down time. While your are getting your makeup done, put someone else in charge of your phone and answering questions. You will want to remain still so that your makeup is flawless.
Put Jewelry on last: You don’t want your jewelry coated with makeup or hair spray. We suggest you put those beauties on after you get into your dress.
Don’t be last in the makeup schedule: It’s a great idea to plan on having your makeup done a few hours before you walk down the aisle. You will want your makeup application done before hair. Leave plenty of time to get dressed after your hair and makeup. You don’t want to be rushing through your big day.

Crying: This is a high emotion day. If you cry, blot, don’t wipe. Blot those tears right away.
Blot out papers and lip touch up: Have some blot out papers to remove any excess oil or sweat. Just pat them on your face. Even if you have a longer lip product, keep a little with you, just in case.
Small purse or clutch: Bring a small purse or clutch with you to put in a few kleenex, blot out papers, and your lip touch up.
