CONCEALER & FOUNDATION
It is inevitable that you may well get the odd spot or blemish before your big day, it always happens in times of increased stress and anxiety, or simply because you don’t want one! Hide the little blighters with Susan Posnick's Colorcorrect Pencil, a revolutionary cream brightener and corrector. This double-sided pencil features a warm end and a cool end that provide different shades for your face, by highlighting and camouflaging discolouration in small areas, making it a perfect complement and companion to the Colorflo foundations from the same range.
Susan Posnick’s Colorflo Foundation offers a sheer coverage foundation from a mineral base. Being a light powder, it will fill lines and pores effortlessly without clogging your skin, so your face will look stunning all day long. Sienna Miller uses it and we reckon she always looks effortlessly beautiful. Since today is ‘your’ big day, you will be under the spotlight from dress till dawn, so you need base make-up that is wearable and most important of all, that has staying power!
CHEEKS
For a subtle blush that will achieve a radiant, healthy flushed glow, add some colour to your cheeks with Clarins Multi-Blush Cream Compact. An ultra-fine, velvety cream-powder texture that glides on effortlessly, giving a transparent, satin, incredibly luminous long-lasting finish.
APPLICATION
Avoid applying foundation and eye-shadow with your fingers on the day, as the natural oils in your skin could spoil your even coverage. Invest in some good brushes such as the Bare Escentuals i.d. Flawless Application Brush to ensure make-up goes on smoothly and remains on your face, not your dress.
EYELASHES
Curling your eyelashes before applying mascara will make your lashes look longer and your eyes more defined in your wedding photos. Try Tweezerman Deluxe Metal Eyelash Curler, a best-selling curler expertly crafted, to create a beautifully long-lasting curl. The rounded curler pad creates an intense curl that will last all day.
WATERPROOF MASCARA
Mascara is essential, as it opens up the eyes giving a bright, wide-awake look. But make sure it's waterproof to get you through those teary moments! Bare Escentuals i.d. Weather Everything Mascara will stay firmly put until you decide to remove it.
LONG-LASTING LIPSTICK
No one wants to outdo a bride on her wedding day, so you need to pull out all the stops with flawless looking make-up. A long-lasting lipstick that doesn't dry out the lips is a must-have. Lovers of glossy lips beware: gloss will make for a sticky just married kiss plus it will need constant reapplication! Urban Decay Lip Envy Lip Stain is available in various colours and will provide truly stunning dramatic lips that will get you noticed. This water-rich lip stain provides a long-lasting, semi-permanent colour worth lusting after.
PERFUME
You're not properly made up until you're wearing a fabulous fragrance. Smell is one of the most powerful senses to trigger memories so ensure you wear a fabulous scent to remind you of your blissful day. Try Paul Smith's Rose Eau De Parfum. A fresh, modern, airy, individual, addictive, sensual scent. Not words you’d automatically associate with a rose fragrance but the moment you mist Paul Smith Rose Eau De Parfum, you abandon all preconceptions.
HAIR
You are looking simply stunning and smelling sensational now, but finally for a last finishing touch, add a little glamour to your hair. Whether you have opted for flowing sumptuous locks or a refined up-do to highlight your features, try adding a stylish and sophisticated hair accessory like those from Fox Jewellery. The Mother of Pearl hairband or Swarovski hairband cover would add a beautiful compliment to any up-do, classic or modern. It’s the final touches that seal your striking look.
