The Perfect Make-up for your Wedding Photography

Every bride desires her complexion and make-up to be flawless in her wedding pictures. Here are a few tips to help you achieve a beautiful look that will last throughout your wedding day.
1- Make-up color should match your shoulders, arms and neck. If you are planning to tan, wait until you have achieved the color you desire to actually purchase your foundation and then tan only for maintenance.
2- Concealers can cover blemishes and even skin tones. Make sure they are well- blended for best results.
3- Powder "sets" your make-up. For brides with oily skin, or for those who perspire, keep a compact handy to freshen up as needed.
4- Shine can appear as a white area in pictures, because it reflects light so use matte finishes. Avoid the urge to use glitter and glosses.
5- Use waterproof mascara. Not only is it more stable, but in the event you do cry, your mascara will not run. Several light coats ensure long evenly coated lashes.
6- Never tweeze on your wedding day. Do so a few days ahead to ensure time for any blotching or bumps that arise as a result will have time to fade.
6- If possible, use the services of a make-up professional. Not only will you benefit from a beautiful application, but their knowledge of color and density, will make it well worth the investment. Otherwise, practice ahead of time to ensure you have the right combination of make-up and colors.
7- Many companies now offer lipstick with lasting color. Or, apply regular lipstick and powder, then re-apply lipstick. And remember, check your teeth to ensure no lipstick smears!
