wedding-makeup.jpgEven though you can purchase low quality makeup for a cheap price, you’ll want something better for your wedding day. Cheap makeup won’t hold up throughout the day - so if you have to freshen up your makeup during a normal day, you’ll definitely want to look for better quality makeup for your wedding. Unfortunately, the more expensive cosmetics in local department stores may be beyond your makeup budget. The following are a few tips for achieving the perfect makeup look on a budget: Schedule Your Makeover Early

Most brides will schedule at least one makeup consultation before their weddings to get a good idea of which makeup styles will be most flattering. If you’re planning to have your wedding during the peak season, it’s important to arrange your makeup appointment well in advance. Doing so will give you the opportunity to take advantage of any discounts that come up, and will give you enough time find a makeup application style and product collection you like. After all, the last thing you want to do is to be scrambling to do your makeup before the wedding and be unhappy with the results.

Mail Order Cosmetics

It’s hard to find high quality cosmetics in local pharmacy stores, but you might also find the price of department store cosmetics to be out of your budget. What to do? If you shop online, you’ll have access to just about any type of makeup you’re interested in, at a much better price than offline stores. Once you’ve had your professional makeup consultation, it will be easy to find the colors and products recommended at a significant discount. In some cases, you may even be able to order free samples that provide enough product to get you through your wedding. Read the rest of this entry »

make-up-hairstyles-for-wedding.jpgHair tips:

  • Dirty hair is a myth!!! Oily or greasy hair does not work well with hairspray
  • Hairstyles are divided into front and back. The front can be parted or straight back and add volume. The back can be high, medium or low and intricate or simple and big or small. If you see something you like, do not disregard it because you do not like part of the hairstyle. Let your hairstylist know which part you like of each hairstyles.
  • Hair can be manipulated to look thinker and longer. Hair extensions could be useful, but not always neccessary.
  • If you are going to add hair extensions, they must be real human hair. Synthetic hair does not have styling abitilities.
  • If you want to add fullness to your hairstyle and you feel like your hair is too thin to provide that fullness, flowers are a perfect solution to fill in the gaps for your wedding hairstyles.

Makeup tips:

  • Bring pictures to show your makeup artist. It will make it easier to interpret what you mean by “natural”, “smoky eyes”, “heavy”, “light”… Read the rest of this entry »

short-hair-updo.jpgWhen styling short hair, don’t think because your hair is short that you are excluded from a dazzling Updo style on your big day. There are many ways to dress up short hair. You just need to use your imagination, your stylists help and maybe some man made materials to help! Here’ some great tips on how to dress up, style and even give the illusion of long hair for all you gals with short dos’!

To Get the illusion of longer hair

  • If your hair is long enough to pull to the crown (top) of your head, an updo on short hair can be created. Here’s a trick: When I’m styling someone with shoulder length or even shorter hair, this is how I get most if not all of the hair up. Instead of tying hair up into one ponytail, which never will work, take small sections of hair, pull to the back and backsides of head. Fasten with small elastics. Use as many as you need. I find I usually use about 6-10 separate ponytails to get all hair up. Don’t be afraid, if you style correctly, you’ll never see any of the separate sections. And the elastics make a great anchor to stick the pins into. Next, curl or twist hair in each pony and pin. Interlock the ponytails by combining hair from each as you work your way down. No one will ever know you have short hair!
  • You may want to look into hair pieces. My favorite to use, looks like a scrunchie. The hair is pre-curled and all you do is pin to a ponytail or to the hair itself. They come in a verity of colors to match most hair color. One word of advice… do not use a curling iron on these. Most are made of synthetic hair and cannot be curled. The hair will melt. Spend a little extra for human hair extensions which can be washed and curled.. Read the rest of this entry »
