Having the perfect face of makeup will help you feel beautiful and confident on your wedding day. It’s something friends and family will see right away when they look at you, and you’ll be able to look back at it for years in your wedding photos. Knowing what to do and avoid at the spa will ensure you get a look you love. Here’s a helpful guide with a few tips for your big day makeup.

Do:

Schedule a trial run.

Visit the spa for a trial run at least two months before the big day. Bring a photograph of your wedding dress and hairstyle so they can help you create a cohesive look. If you’ve found some makeup styles you like online or in magazines, bring those in as well. The trial run allows you to make any necessary adjustments so your artist will know exactly what you want on your wedding day.

Add lashes.

Lashes add drama and make your eyes pop, making them stunning additions for your wedding day look. If you don’t typically wear them, your artist can add some natural-looking ones that won’t feel too heavy on your eyes.

Don’t:

Get a morning facial.spa

A facial is an effective way to make your skin smooth and beautiful, but don’t do it the morning of your wedding. Some chemical peels and exfoliant products leave the skin slightly red for a few hours. Applying heavy makeup on those freshly opened pores may also cause clogs. For the best results, visit the spa about a week before your big day to have your skincare done.

Go glittery.

Most brides find that they prefer a natural and timeless look. Glitter will throw off the lighting in your photography, so don’t use glittery bronzers or eye shadows. To make sure you love how you look in pictures and don’t have a white cast, ask someone to take a picture of you using the flash to see how the makeup looks.
