     One of the most exciting and special days for a woman always remains her wedding day. The preparations usually start a year before the wedding , and the perfect looks are an integral part of that. I decided to write this article with the idea to help and make it easier for brides-to-be , as the organization creates tension in many of you and sometimes you need a little help for a big smile.

1.Trial makeup .Once you have chosen your stylists it is advisable to meet with them , talk about your wishes, taste , wedding colors, dress style and jewelry . Guided by your preferences the makeup artist will suggest a suitable look or execute your chosen makeup. It is preferable to approach individually , according to your features, eye and hair color, skin tone, and what type it is, face and eye shape, choice of hairstyle .

2.Skin preparation before the wedding . It is advisable to do beauty treatments or home care before the wedding day for a fresher and hydrated look. If you are visiting a beautician for a facial or lighter treatments it is advisable to be at least 10 days before the occasion, if it is for more serious treatments such as a peel I recommend to be at least three weeks before the wedding . Radiofrequency facelift is very suitable for smoothing fine lines and lifting the oval as well as for puffy or swollen eyes . The procedure can be applied in series as well as the day before the wedding for refreshment. If purely financially or physically you are not able to you can do a peel and hydrating mask at home the day before the wedding . For under eyes you can use for you or your mother, mother in law moisturizing or anti puffy patches, 15 min before makeup.

3.Where is the best place to do the wedding makeup ?If you want a well done and long lasting makeup it is desirable to be in the makeup artist's salon .There the place, the light, the temperature, the high chair, the availability of all the products are suited for a good job so the result will be the best. The photographer can capture your preparation at the appropriate place without any problem. If you insist on a visit to your home or hotel it is advisable to make up in daylight, a place near a window, ensure plenty of space and quiet and a cool place, as on summer days it is very difficult to make a good make up if the face is sweating.

4.Who can best judge if my makeup suits me ? Very often your mum or a good friend will come with you for a trial makeover, which on the one hand is good, for support and a side opinion, but it doesn't always help. Very often the two parties are of opposite opinion, in terms of makeup strength , colour , shimmers and contours. Dear brides the most important thing is that you feel good with your makeup , that it is perceived and gives you confidence , so you will also have a good mood for the wedding.

5. How strong does the makeup have to be to show up in the photos ? Thickness and highlighted makeup are preferable, as well as eyelashes that are put on by the makeup artist , as they complete the makeup and give an open look .

6. Are the colours currently fashionable . Yes , especially for lips. You don't have to be subtle or with more nude colors , you can experiment on the trial makeup or match with the bouquet or wedding color.

7.Is it mandatory to have glitter in bridal makeup ? There are some faces and skins that go for more matte products and those for whom glitter is advisable. Very fashionable now are pigments with different colors , which give a very subtle glow to the eyes, glitter eyeliners, highlighters for different areas of the face and eyes, and the classic lip gloss with gloss .

8. What are the current trends ? Right now the trends are towards stronger makeup or the other opposite completely stripped of eye colors, with an emphasis on eyeliner or lashes, and well highlighted matte lips.

9. How long will the makeup last ? If a makeup is well done it can last two days /which is not advisable for your skin and eyes to be with it for so long/ . Very often clients say that even after crying the makeup has stayed on .

10. At what time the hell should the makeup be done on the wedding day itself ? Our recommendations are not to leave the makeup for the end , just before picking you up from home , but to be at least an hour before so that it can be looked at in detail and coordinated with the dress and makeup of body parts , if necessary .

And last but not least are your mood , positive attitude and self-confidence .They are the best makeup for every lady , the rest you can leave to us 🙂
