Your wedding day is going to be the most photographed day of your life, and those photos will last a lifetime. Achieving a flawless bridal beauty look is all about what's in your makeup bag.
Keep scrolling for the list of makeup must-haves to keep your makeup looking flawless whole day long.
Tissues
Because almost every bride cries at some point… And even if you do keep your composure, I bet at least one of your bridesmaids won’t! No one wants to walk down the aisle with a sniffy nose, so have tissues handy at all times to feel your best.
Blotting paper
Through the pre-wedding nerves to the all-night dancing, in addition to humid and hot weather like in Cyprus, you’re bound to get a little shiny on your T-zone, but I don’t recommend using a powder compact for touch-ups. The thing about powder is the more you apply (and you WILL reapply), your makeup can start to look cake-y from all the layers.
Here’s my solution: blotting papers are your best friends!
Powder
In case if you decide to go ahead with the powder give your preference to the translucent ones which will remove the shine on the T-zone without adding any heaviness to your makeup. Favorite ones are Laura Mercier Translucent powder, Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish Powder, Too Faced Translucent powder, M.A.C. Blot Powder/Pressed.
Day lipstick or lip gloss
For all the kissing, talking and photographs! Keep it handy to reapply as often as needed. All that kissing will take its toll on even the best lipsticks, glosses and stains…
Night lipstick
They’re small enough to easily fit in your bag, so why not pack two? Many brides like to change up their makeup look from day to night. You can do this subtly by changing lipsticks. Keep things fresh and natural during the day then be bold and wear a deeper, richer hue for the.
Perfume
So that you can smell as beautiful as you look all day long. Spritz on some extra scent as needed – you’ll remember the scent forever. The nostalgic fragrance will be perfect for use on anniversaries and special occasions, too!
