-
What touch up products will I need to carry with me on my wedding day?
Make sure your bridesmaids carry a small hand bag with the following items included: eyeliner, lipstick/gloss/lip liner, concealer and powder. The rest of your make-up should stay on - if you have applied professional products and used them correctly.
-
Do my shades/colours of my make-up have to match my wedding theme colours?
You don’t have to match your make-up to the colour scheme of your wedding.
-
Any other suggestions of what I should be carrying?
Breath mints, tissues, deodorant, hand cream, small hand mirror and a few extra hair grips and clips.
-
What can I do if I start to cry during the ceremony, won’t my make-up come off?
If you cry you will need to touch up you make-up after the ceremony – especially the concealer and powder under your eyes and your eye liner. Wear waterproof mascara. Tissues rolled up behind your bouquet will be helpful in protecting your make-up, should you become tearful you will have tissues on hand to catch the tears.
-
At what stage in my preparations should my make-up be applied?
Your make-up will be applied after you have had your hair done, you will need to eat and brush your teeth. Then you will do your make-up and get dressed there after.
