The Complexion of the Bride-to-Be
The complexion of the bride-to-be is of utmost importance on her wedding day.
The foundation must last all day without any touch-ups. In other words, brides are primarily looking for a natural makeup look for their face, a flawless complexion for the most beautiful day of their lives.
What foundation should be used? Should illuminating powder be applied? What about correcting imperfections? What precautions should be taken if the bride has very dry or oily skin? If you’re asking these questions, the following tips should help clarify things.
Our Tips for a Flawless Complexion
For a bride’s complexion without any flaws, it is essential to prioritize skin preparation:
- Thoroughly cleanse the skin to remove impurities.
- Moisturize the skin with an appropriate product: combination and oily skin types should opt for a hydrating and mattifying treatment, while dry skin will benefit from a nourishing cream.
- In the weeks leading up to the wedding, brides should adopt a good lifestyle: daily cleansing and moisturizing, a healthy and balanced diet, and perhaps a treatment at a beauty salon.
- On the big day, once the skin is ready for makeup, here are the steps to follow:
- Correct imperfections with a corrective palette: redness, small scars, etc.
- Apply foundation with a light touch: it is important to avoid a cakey look.
- Using a highlighter can be a good idea to add some radiance to the bride’s face.
- The finishing touch: a bit of blush on the cheeks and setting powder to prevent the complexion from shifting throughout the day due to stress and heat.
Don’t hesitate to slip some blotting papers into the bride’s handbag for last-minute touch-ups.
With these tips, the bride should have a perfect complexion until the end of the night. Of course, it’s recommended to use professional-quality products for optimal results.
