You all know how much I love makeup and to be honest the idea of researching and shopping for makeup excited me. When I started looking at ideas for wedding makeup, I decided to ask my friends and family for gift vouchers for my birthday in February and decided on Debenhams.
So heres the top tips I picked up on for wedding makeup:
- Avoid SPF - obviously if your getting married outside this is going to be something you want to consider however SPF causes flash back on photographs which causes you to look white washed - not what you want on your wedding day.
- Shop around - I did a lot of research into different products. Most high end beauty counters will offer you a sample of things like Foundation which is great to take away and try at home with any other products you may have.
- Wear White - If you are going to beauty counters to have a trial for ideas, wear a white tshirt. Your going to be wearing white on your big day and it will give you an idea of what its going to look like.
- Go Outside - Again if your having a trial done in a department store go outside and have a wonder around before you commit to anything. Department stores often have florescent lighting which can make your makeup look completely different. Go and have a look in the natural light.
- Dont rush into anything - I have done a lot of research into different looks, different styles, different products. I wanted to look into lots of ideas before I settled on one thing. Don't be afraid to shop around. It would be quite easy to go into a department store and get everything from one stand when actually different brands have different products which work well together.
I will of course share my makeup from the day with you... but no sneak peeks! Sorry Girls!
