Are you getting married in Colorado? Are you looking for a Denver Wedding Photographer? Are you planning your wedding on your own? Here is a great article to help you with your wedding make up.
It’s often the last thing you as a bride think of when you’re planning your wedding day. There is so much to do beforehand; it makes your head spin! It is the most important day of your life, and you want to look absolutely stunning!
So, do you do your own wedding make up, or get a professional Make-up Artist to do it instead? Well, it all depends on how competent you feel in applying make-up. If you wear it regularly, and apply it well, there’s no reason why you can’t do your ownwedding make up . Just make sure you have a trial beforehand. Choose shades that enhance your features. There really are no rules, as long as you choose a shade that is flattering. Generally forwedding make up , your chosen theme colours will dictate the shades you use in your make up. The neutral tones of brown, gold and beige can be used to stunning effect. Or if your colours are cool, such as lavender or pink, you can introduce these colours into the make up. Use pale pinks to highlight the brow bone and create shading in the socket line with soft greys. Don’t try any fashionable new looks for your wedding day, keep that new silver eye gloss for your next night out! You can use shimmer shades for the eyes. Apply a frosted beige to the brow bone and eyelid to open up the eye and enhance the colour, but avoid shimmer dewy looks for your face, you’ll just look sweaty in the photos!
Make powder your must have item to keep your complexion looking flawless all day. If you choose to wear lip gloss, always apply it over a base colour of matching lipstick or lip liner. Don’t opt for just clear gloss as your lips will seem to disappear into your face in the photos. You need to add a bit of colour for definition. Nude browns or soft rose pinks look natural and there is a shade to suit all skin tones.
A clear glowing skin is an asset for any bride. It is easily achieved with a good skincare routine. This need not be complicated, a good cleanser, toner and moisturiser applied daily, with exfoliator twice a week, will ensure you have beautiful skin! Keep these products in the bathroom where you’ll use them, not looking pretty on your dressing table gathering dust! If you have any skin problems, visit a Beauty Therapist, who will carry out a skin analysis, consultation and give you personalised recommendations to improve your skin’s condition.
As your wedding day approaches, you may feel you can’t cope with the stress of doing your own make up on the morning. Then consider calling in the professionals. There are benefits to having someone else do it for you. You can get up in the morning, have a bath or shower, then just sit back and relax until it’s time to go. You’re in the hands of a trainedprofessional (hopefully) with lots of experience who can put your mind at rest and create that stunning look you’ve always dreamed of. Or maybe not…As there are numerous bridal Hair and Make-up Artists out there, how do you know you’ve picked good ones? Well here are some things to look for when choosing someone to carry out this important task.
1) Ask if they specialise in bridal hair and make up – they will invariably say yes, but check how long they have been doing it – it is different from regular clients.
2) If you want hair and make up for yourself and the bridal party, it’s best to have a team of at least two people to carry this out – you don’t want to feel rushed and part done!
3) Check their portfolio and look at the pictures – do you like any of the hairstyles or make up looks?
4) Ask to see recommendations from other brides
5) Check they use a professional brand of make up (you may not recognise the name) as the colour pigments are denser and last longer. But don’t get too hung up on this, remember the most important thing is that they can apply it flawlessly!
6) Make sure you can have a trial and consultation – talk to the person (s) you must feel comfortable with them and tell them exactly what you want.
(7) And the final piece of advice – have them come to you, it’s no fun dashing about town getting your hair and make up done, then hurrying home with barely enough time to get in your wedding dress!
On your wedding morning get up early and make sure you have breakfast. Take time out to enjoy your preparations whether you are doing them or someone else. And the most important thing… Don’t worry about flowers wilting or bridesmaids stumbling, this day is about you marrying the man you love and everything else is just the trimmings!
