The Perfect Face: Make Up Tips for Your Wedding Day

  1. Wear a bit more of your regular makeup than usual. You want to look as natural as possible - that's why we encourage you to stay close to your regular colors. Wear just a touch more than normal.
  2. Play up one feature. If you'd like a bit more drama than your everyday look, pick one feature - like your eyes or lips - and play it up. Choose a richer toned lip gloss (don't forget the liner - that's what keeps your lipstick put!) or a dramatic eye color.
  3. Treat yourself to custom blended makeup. Custom blended makeup gives you a flawless look by creating makeup perfectly matched for your coloring and moisture needs.
  4. Plan ahead for makeup maintenance. Keep your look fresh and clean throughout the evening by stashing key products in your reception facility's bathroom. Our favorites for the bag? Blotting papers, a pressed powder applied with a brush (loose powder gets on your dress and applying it with a sponge can leave you uneven) and a tinted lip gloss.

Still worried about the right level or colors? Hire a makeup artist and trust their judgment. Have a friend take pictures of you in various colors and application combinations. Either way, with a little planning you'll achieve a picture perfect wedding day look.
