From the Tease to Please Pros
A wedding day is a marathon – not a sprint! You want to last all day long, so you’re going to want to invest in the very best. Your makeup will need to hold up through every photo taken, every tear cried, every toast made, every dance, and all those lovely selfies. A silicone-based primer is one step you can take towards elongating your foundation’s finish. Apply each element in thin, even layers. This also is a great rule of thumb for blush, highlighter, translucent powder, eyeshadow, etc. You always achieve a more natural, airbrushed look when your products are truly seamless! If you are a crier, keep a tissue handy and always blot the tears away – never rub! Use a straw to drink if you can and seal the whole look with a setting spray that contains glycerin to lock moisture into your skin. Try out these steps with any of our artist-recommended foundations listed and linked below!
