The one day in your life that you want to be pampered and taken care of is your wedding day. You are going to be under a lot of stress and dealing with a lot of last minute details. To reduce the stress that you experience on your wedding you should hire a professional makeup artist to come to you and do your makeup. This will ensure that your makeup will be perfect, and if adjustments need to be made they will be able to handle them.

For oily skin, use camouflage where necessary, setting with loose powder and then powder foundation blended with a brush. If you need more coverage add additional powder by patting with a dry sponge. For combination skin, use a water based foundation, also blended with a dry sponge. More often than not, camouflage is required to correct all skin imperfections that seem to arrive just before the big day. With expert application of a full coverage camouflage product, applied with a nylon brush, pressed with your finger and layered if necessary, will correct any problem.
Lip liner frames your lips and holds color in. But choose a natural color - nothing too dark. For best results, brush your lipstick on. Add a small amount of gloss, applied to the center of your bottom lip, for a special glow. Avoid pale, pale colors-your lips will fade into your dress.

Soft sparkles of pinks and plums give this bridal makeup a chic, natural glow. Lori uses a vibrant purple eye shadow to line the eyes for this look instead of black. Pale pink and a toasty plum highlight the eyelids for a clean look. The Prettiest Pink Beauty Box is a set of perfectly matched eye shadows, blush and face powder.

The subtle look can be achieved by using the air-brush a lot and sticking to light shades such as cream, gold, lime green and brown for warm skin undertones and lilac, plums and soft pink for cool skin undertones.

Hairstyles are often adorned with pearls, rhinestones, flower buds, golden lace, satin ribbons, jeweled hair bands and tiaras among other hair ornaments and may range from the simplest French braid or bud to complex and elaborate hairdos.

Lighting also determines your makeup. A well-lit area uses lighter colors while deeper tones are good for darker areas. Fluorescent lighting will add a greenish tinge to everything so avoid green shades.

You may go through magazines to help you decide how you want your wedding makeup to look before you meet with a makeup artist or purchase any cosmetics. You might want to do this with your groom if you have heard him say things like “you don’t need any makeup,” “you’re beautiful just the way you are,” or “just wear what you usually wear.” You should let him know that wedding makeup is applied a little differently for photography and that it needs to last all day. If possible, include him when looking through the magazines for wedding makeup styles.

While applying make-up, blend it well. Make sure there is no visible lines. In case you are using translucent powder, for a long-lasting make-up, avoid patting too much as it will make your skin look dry and flaky.

When choosing a fragrance for your wedding day, wear one of your favorites. This is no time for surprises! Layer the perfume to create a magical aura of scented pleasure.
