Don’t worry, we got you covered and bring you our 15 simple tips about the ideal wedding makeup look for 2019.

 

 

 

1) Hydration

 

The skin not only benefits when you use moisturizing creams… Since they are working from the outside in, remember that you also need to be treated from the inside out. Therefore, you should make sure to drink the daily amount of water your body needs, in addition to eating healthy, avoiding cigarettes and alcohol, exercising, using appropriate sunscreen when out in the sun. These details are very important if you want your skin to remain oxygenated and clean for your wedding day.

 

 

2) Treat skin conditions

 

If your skin needs to be treated by a dermatologist, do not waste time. There are brands that unfortunately makeup can’t cover, or certain conditions that don’t allow makeup to work as it should. If you know that your skin needs some kind of professional intervention, don’t hesitate.

 

 

 

3) Take care of your skin

If your skin is dry and brittle, it is likely that makeup won’t hold properly; this can highlight even more of the skin’s irregularities. Therefore, weeks before the big day, it is advisable to take care of such things as hydration and facials. Apply a face mask two days before, avoid eating too much fat, and stay well hydrated throughout the week before your wedding. You can also perform an invigorating ice formation, which consists of applying ice cubes to the face. The cold has a stimulating effect on blood circulation, this natural treatment contributes to a luminous skin, reducing spots on the face and preventing dark circles under your eyes. After that, all you need to do is soften the skin with the help of a good moisturizer and start applying the foundation of your makeup.

 

4) Sleep well

 

The minimum recommended time to sleep and keep your skin looking healthy is between 7 and 8 hours. It is proven that the normal regulation of the skin is altered by the lack of rest; the secretion of melatonin and cortisol, hormones that influence the dermatological processes, is altered by not sleeping the required time and this can lead to the reactivation of dermatological pathologies. So you definitely need your beauty sleep!!

 

5) Do not shave on your wedding day

 

This advice is not only recommended by wedding make-up artists, but also by photographers, who mention that this detail usually complicates the photo session. Therefore, we recommend that any hair removal be done no less than 3 to 4 days before the wedding day.

 

 

6) No invasive treatments a month before

 

If you’re only 30 days away from your wedding, the recommendation is to use only hydration treatments that are not invasive at all, such as: Microdermabrasion, peelings, or any of this type.

 

7) Your own essence

It is not at all necessary that you want to denature and use colors that do not resemble you, we know that marriage is a day of your life that should be the most beautiful; but still, you must maintain your own essence. A perfect skin, outstanding eyes and a beautiful, lasting mouth, are all a beautiful art of wedding makeup. “

 

 

8) Choose the base and the palette

 

You must remember that on the day of your wedding the bridal makeup should last many hours, therefore, choose waterproof products resistant to the emotions of the big day.

Create the perfect base on which to work, choosing a base that has the same tone of your skin, try it on the jaw and make sure it is your perfect match.

 

 

9) Wet climates

 

If you plan to get married on the beach or somewhere humid, it is advisable to use a good primer and apply it on the face before the base. You should try it out weeks before to be sure that it will not cause any allergic reaction.

 

 

10) Do some tests

 

Even if you decide to do a bridal makeup on your own, it is essential to do all the necessary tests in advance. In order to choose the right makeup, products and colors, you can get inspired by the numerous makeup trends in magazines.
