"Your trial acts as a blueprint for your wedding day, but things change," said Carey. "You need to leave room for the unexpected and let go of some control."
Some brides know exactly how they want their hair and makeup to look and others are unsure, but either way, your beauty tests should be a collaborative process between you and your artists. After leaving your appointment, you'll know you found the right expert when you trust their judgment and are confident with their talents.
When doing your makeup trial, know that the color palette may be tweaked a bit on your big day depending on the season and your skin tone (after all, your wedding is still six months to a year away), so instead of seeking the exact brand and color names of products being used, focus on skill.
