WEDDINGS MAKE-UP TIPS
By Debbie Jean of realwomenmakeup.com

• Why do some bride’s faces look white in their wedding photos?

  This affect occurs because:
  • The camera flash sometimes creates this effect
  • The foundation may have been to light or too pink for her skin (or both)
  • Many brides tan their body before their wedding and not their face, creating a huge contrast in colour between the face and chest area. If you are going to tan you body and not your face make sure you apply a foundation that is darker than the colour of your face and blend very well. This way the colour of your skin on your face will now match your tanned shoulders and neck area, creating a flow of colour from your face down towards your chest and shoulder area.
  • If you are going to have a spray tan recheck your foundation is not to light after your tan.
