Whether you decide to make up alone or call a pro, it is better to follow some basic tips that will allow you to have a beauty that really sublimates you! The advice of Jean-Pierre Fauvet, web-trainer hairstyle and makeup for Jean-Claude Biguine and Laure Baruch, makeup artist.
Colors to favor and those to be avoided
Jean-Pierre Fauvet explains: “For a wedding, women generally want to see their beauty sublimated by makeup, being the most beautiful and seeing their imperfections camouflaged, without feeling disguised. The shades depend mainly on the choice of the dress and its fabric. If we choose a sparkling material, we will make a matt makeup. On the contrary, if the dress is not going too much, we are going to go too much. On the color side, to stay in the idea of naturalness, we can use the whole range of beige and “nudes”, to the light brown, and a lot of white, rosés … We also remain on the idea of ”peach skin” with fluid foundations to correct imperfections. The glitter that may give a style too “carnival”. “
A makeup that holds
Between tears, hugs, stress or dance … It seems difficult to keep an impeccable makeup! However, a few tips exist: “You always have to plan an emergency kit because the makeup does not stay perfect all day and ends up spinning because of the hugs or tears. Most often it is the makeup of the cheeks and the mouth that cannot be resisted. Contrary to what one thinks, that of the eyes holds well, unless the bride is literally founded in tears. So think of a case with, in priority. Lip outline, blush and a brush. Indicates Jean-Pierre Fauvet.
When do you make up?
Before or after hairstyle? It all depends! The more explicit answer with our specialist: “If we make a bun, you have to make up before the styling stage, the hair being washed the day before. If necessary you can do touch-ups or add gloss just after. If you have to wash your hair and make a brushing the same morning, in this case you make up just after.”
How to prepare the skin for D -Day?
Do you dream of a fishing complexion without imperfections for your wedding? We will have to work there a few weeks before … “So that the face is perfect, we advise future brides to have a good lifestyle before D -Day, to sleep well and drink a lot of water so that the complexion is fresh and radiant. It is also recommended to do a facial care a few days before and to give the skin time to rest. The day before, a good massage and a bath allow you to relax completely. advises the expert.
Errors to avoid:
Orange complexion, redness, too thick eyebrows … So many details that can spoil your beauty on wedding day. So to be sure of being perfect, follow the recommendations of Laure Baruch, makeup artist.
Forget the self -tanner the day before the wedding, you will risk having unsightly traces or being orange!
Ban the eyebrow hair removal the day before with the tweezers and the too hot wax. You venture to make asymmetries, holes and even burn.
The error not to be made for a bridal makeup is a garish makeup. Avoid too bright colors that are not very distinguished. Opt for natural and bright makeup highlighting your eyes. Then sublimate your lips with pastel notes.
As a rule, do not innovate in cosmetic products shortly before your marriage.
