Post-trial, live in your look for the rest of the day. Take pictures of your hair and makeup not only for future reference, but also to see how they translate in photographs. Those snapshots may even convince you to use hair extensions or go a little less dramatic with your eye makeup on your wedding day.
Test out your makeup in different lighting, too. "When looking at celebrities on a red carpet, their makeup looks perfect, but as soon as they get inside award shows, most look washed out," Madron stated. Your bridal makeup should not only last without touch-ups (except lip color), but it should translate effortlessly from day to night, outside and in candlelight.
I was fortunate enough to have had long-standing relationships with Madron and Carey, so the vibe on my wedding day was fun, pretty calm, and full of positive energy. When making your decision on who to book for your bridal glam squad, seek that effortless connection.
On the day of your ceremony, the members of your bridal beauty team are the ones protecting you from your overcaffeinated photographer, chatty mother-in-law, and anxious bridesmaids. Most importantly, though, they're going to help you feel and look your most beautiful on one of the most special days of your life.
