Getting your makeup done for the big day can be exciting and relaxing as well. There are a few things you should know prior to just sitting down in the chair. You need to know what colors look best on you and how to show your best self. This will require seeing a few different cosmetic consultants before the big day. You want to see who is the best and what they can do for you. Most likely, if you find one you like, you can hire her to do the makeup for you and your bridesmaids. Make sure the bridesmaids find out what color suits them best, as well. Remember less is more. You don't want to over do it and take away from the beauty of your ensemble as a whole.

A good option is to have your face done up by a professional and then have a picture taken. You will be able to show your makeup stylist what you want done and provide a visual aid. You will need to write down all the product names and codes and color names that were used during your consultation. This will help the stylist you choose, match the colors. Make sure you bring the photos and information to the stylist months in advance in case she has to order them or you need to bring them with you. Another option is to do it your self, using the photo and products you got at the consultation. If you choose this way, make sure you practice multiple times to get the look exact. Applying make up is not always as easy as one thinks.

Here are some common makeup styles to think about when trying to plan that big day.

?Contemporary weddings make up is the most common style in wedding make-up. It is simple and sweet and rides on the theory less is more. This technique sticks with sparkly pinks and plums to give the bride a more natural glow.

?The Hollywood scarlet wedding make up is a glamorous movie star-type design. It is done to accentuate the eyes and uses a bolder color on the lips. This technique uses a smoky blend of eye color, natural tone blushes and bold lips.

?The classic wedding make up is for more traditional style weddings or anyone wanting the classic look. This style accentuates your best features using many neutral tones. Your skin tone will determine the shades best suited for you and your facial structure will determine how the make up is placed.

?The Spanish style wedding make up flair has a more dramatic look to it. This dynamic make up ensemble uses smoky dark eyes accentuated with a neutral lip tone to bring out your best facial features.


 Quote of the Day
In the middle of the next century, when the literary establishment will reflect the multicultural makeup of this country and not be dominated by assimiliationists with similar tastes, from similar backgrounds, and of similar pretensions, Langston Hughes will be to the twentieth century what Walt Whitman was to the nineteenth.
—Ishmael Reed (b. 1938)



?Vintage romance wedding style make up accentuates the fair skinned bride by using peach tones to enhance her beauty. Cream colors are also used as a contrast to smooth out the skin's tone and texture. This look is a beautiful way to bring together the whole face as a work of art.

?The glamour goddess wedding make up design goes all out to deeply line the eyes and make lips appear pouty. With rosy pink cheeks to add that extra flare. Color will be chosen to accentuate the bride's skin tone and darker colors will be used. This makes the eyes look deep and lusciously large.

?The Regal retro wedding look is that old style Audrey Hepburn type make up that adds drama to the face. Skin made to look like porcelain with bold red lips and light dusty eyes rimmed with a dark color is the trend. For that true retro flare add the long fake eyelashes for the extra dramatic look.

?The Garden wedding make up design uses various shades of rose to bring out the bride's best features. This is a stunning look that is clean and crisp using mostly light neutral tones of the rose color. This look could easily be done on any bride.

So no matter what type of make up style you choose make sure it complements your wedding theme and face. Your make up will the last thing you wear that ties in your whole wedding ensemble that you have worked so diligently to pick out and make perfect. Don't skimp on these finer details they are just as important as your wedding gown.
