Creating your picture-perfect face

So far, we’ve presented pieces of the puzzle. The finished picture is your perfect face on your wedding day. There are many ways to achieve the look you want. Here are some of the ideas offered by those who create beautiful faces all the time.

• If you want to have your makeup done by a professional makeup artist, don’t wait until the last minute. Start looking a few months before your wedding.
• Ask your friends, your hair stylist, your photographer, and other people involved in your wedding for referrals. Contact beauty academies, vocational schools, and training schools for makeup artists.
• If the services include bridal makeup, request a consultation. Meet and interview the person in advance. You want someone with whom you can feel relaxed and comfortable, but also someone who understands “the look” you want.
• Explain your preferences. Mention any skin allergies or sensitivities.

Do it Yourself Wedding Makeup

From her signature beauty box to her professional wedding makeup brushes, Lori Dunn's taken the guesswork out of looking gorgeous on your wedding day. >>

If you decide to do your wedding makeup yourself, experts still advise having a professional makeover before the wedding. One option is a beauty consultant at a department store (such as Dillards, Nordstrom or Macy's) or a spa (search here for a spa in your area). Be sure you like the look, and ask for detailed instructions on how to duplicate it.

If you’re really happy with the results, see whether this person might be available on your wedding day, either at your home or the location of the wedding. If that’s not possible, ask about other options, including practice sessions, photographs, and step-by-step written instructions. Have as many sessions as it takes for you to like what you see and be able to create exactly the same look. Try applying your wedding face a month or so before the big day to see how long it stays on and fresh looking. Be aware of reactions you may be having to any of the products you’re wearing. If something is irritating to your skin, you still have time to find another product.
