Look fabulous on your wedding day
Follow the Confetti East guide to looking stunning on your big day...
Cleansing routine
No matter how exhausted you may be with all that wedding shopping, don’t forget to remove your make-up before sleeping. Clogged up pores lead to spots, requiring even more make-up to cover it up.
Use UV protection
For a summer or autumn wedding, remember you want an even skin tone without some bits being darker than others. Make sure you have sun protection in the months leading up to the wedding.
Invest in a good haircut
A great haircut can give tremendous confidence and can enhance the look of the outfits you have chosen for your trousseau.
Brilliant smile
See a dentist several months before to make sure if you need more visits for cleaning or polishing before the wedding day, after all you want to be smiling confidently in the photographs.
Pamper yourself
Go into a day spa or for the weekend and have a facial, massage and manicures. It will help you feel more relaxed and also make you look glowing.
Apply make-up in the light you’re going out in
Whether you are using a make-up artist or doing your own make-up, make sure you have a trial in the right sort of light needed for the day. Evening make-up can be a little darker and heavier as compared to daylight or outdoors.
Confidence
Choose the outfit that suits you rather than just following trends. Don’t wear anything that seems out of character or something that doesn’t go with your personality. You’ll have the confidence of knowing that you’re looking your best.
