The 10 Commandments of Perfect Wedding Makeup

1. Clear, even skin is first and foremost. Start with small commitments, like washing off your makeup before bed every night and moisturizing daily. Expand your skin care regiment include monthly facials that will even out the skin’s texture over time so that it provides the best base for your wedding day makeup.

2. Most brides prefer to have their makeup professionally applied on their big day. After finding the makeup artist that understands the look you want, schedule a couple makeup application trial runs before the wedding to get your look just right.

3. Make your wedding makeup last throughout the festivities with a few little beauty tricks. It all starts with finding the right primer to create a smooth base for the rest of your makeup. When applying lipstick, be sure to follow the repeat method of apply – blot – apply to ensure your lipstick doesn’t budge no matter how many kisses or pieces of cake.

4. Conceal pesky last-minute zits with concealer applied with a synthetic-bristle brush. Avoid sweeping the brush in back-and-forth motions, otherwise the concealer will just build up around the blemish instead of covering it.

5. As tempting as it may be to wear this season’s magenta lips or turquoise eyeliner, stick with a classic neutral palette for your big day for a timeless look– your wedding photos will thank you.

6. Trade shine for a dewy glow. Apply translucent powder across the oily parts of the face – forehead, nose and chin – with a fluffy powder puff. Then, achieve a from-within glow by dusting a soft, shimmery highlighter to the temples and tops of cheekbones.

7. It goes without words – waterproof mascara is a must!

8. Match your nails to your make up – pretty and neutral. Not only will colorful digits distract from a white dress, potential polish chips are more noticeable.

9. Even the most perfectly applied makeup won’t last all day. Stock a touch-up kit with makeup essentials, like translucent powder, blotting papers, lipstick and tissues.

10. Play it safe and give yourself extra time when it comes to applying your makeup on the big day.
