A lot of brides don’t give make up and hair much of a thought since they do their own hair and make up on a daily basis. But you are not wearing clothes that you wear everyday and you normally don’t have over 500 photographs taken of you everyday, So everyday hair and make up needs to be stepped up a notch! Choosing the right hairstyle for you and your gown is the first requirement. Look through magazines for styles that you connect with and also have a picture of your gown to take to the salon when you go for a “trial run.” Some brides even try to find a top that has a similar neckline to their gown to wear that day so they can see the updo or style they choose with the gown neckline to see if it is flattering to their face. Let your stylist know if you will be wearing a veil or any kind of hair jewelry. Then after you have your hair done, have a make up session and then have someone take pictures. What you see in the mirror is not the same as what the camera sees and good photographers will tell you that you need to wear a little bit more color than usual for the camera to pick it up. Don’t be afraid to experiment in the months before the wedding with different colors and looks to get the one that is best for you. Having your make-up professionally done during the engagement time is a great way to get in on new skincare products as well as products that will give you the best color and look on your day, Talk to friends or attend bridal shows to find great Mary Kay consultants to give you a makeover. Some of these consultants are even willing to come to the church on your wedding day and do make-up for you and your attendants. Or if you prefer, go to your favorite department store for a make up session and let those experts give you a more dramatic look to try.
The other suggestion for ultimate beauty on your wedding day is to take care of yourself. Although this will be one of the busiest times of your life leading up to your wedding, eating right and getting enough sleep can make all the difference between enjoying your day and having great memories and just trying to “get through it.” Then, drink lots of water. Eight to ten glasses of water a day will give you more energy (most of us walk around every day dehydrated), help you lose those last few pounds before wedding day and give you a healthy glow. Finally, remember that beauty starts from the inside out. Be thankful and enjoy this time with your family and friends and your inner beauty will shine through.
