Look your best with our top wedding day hair and makeup advice:

Eyelashes
Choose mascara that is waterproof because the make-up of a bride who cries should not run down.

Eyeliner
Use eyeliner made from charcoal, marine blue or light brown. Because black or brown may seem to strict, particularly if the wedding ceremony takes place by daylight and/or outside.

Blusher
Do not forget to accent your cheeks! A little colour on your cheeks and you will instantly see a difference! A rosé coloured rouge suits best; women with a dark complexion choose a more rosé colour.

The Attack
If you have a spot or herpes shortly before the wedding you should not try to clear it away with your hands – because normally they heal better without squeezing. You can as well visit your cosmetician or dermatologist who can help you instantly.

Facilities
Little crinkles around the eyes you can conceal them best with make-up because the photo camera sees everything.

Good Light
For the stylist it is always important to have natural light. Therefore everything should be arranged in a way that your chair is close to the window. If there is no natural light a strong halogen lamp works as well.

Face & Cleavage
Use a bronze powder for your face and cleavage. Your skin looks more shining and beaming. It is important that no big difference may appear between face and cleavage due to make-up and powder.

The Dress
Put the powder on before you put on the dress- it could get stained.

Put Lotion On
Use a moisturizing lotion with a sun protection factor of at least 15 or more, mainly if you marry and celebrate outside! You are exposed to the sunshine more as you think and you do not want to glow red on the pictures by no means.

Lipstick
You should ask your stylist to use a lipstick or lip-gloss out of your beauty box. This way you have the possibility to renew the lipstick.

A Smile
You can have the softest lips and have chosen the perfect lipstick but if your teeth are yellow you do not want to smile. In the meantime there are good products in almost every drugstore that you can use at home. These products mostly lighten your teeth of some hues.

Preparation
Choose a chair for yourself without a rest so that your hair stylist can work without any problems. You should make sure as well that there are enough close power outlets for the equipment like hair dryer, curling iron or curlers. You may have extension leads ready.

Switch On The Equipment
If your wedding ceremony takes place early in the morning or you do not have much time left, switch on the equipments already before - this way your stylist saves time.
