Wedding Perfection

On your wedding day, you should look like yourself at your most beautiful! Here are some basics about how to create a flawless look with your favorite Blush Girls ;)

Flash photography can bring out the pink tones in skin, so look for a yellow-based foundation to even out your complexion. To reduce shine in pictures and make your foundation and concealer last, we set with Laura Mercier Loose Setting Powder.

Your everyday lipstick can look washed out in photos, so pick a shade that’s a little bit brighter than what you normally wear. I LOVE LOVE LOVE classic red lips, especially Laura's Scarlett Passion Lip Velvet.

For a healthy glow, dust a bright pink blush, like Laura Mercier's Pink Rose Quad, on the apples of the cheeks after applying a neutral blush. Tans are back in this season, but make sure to get bronzed the safe way: airbrush tanning! Make sure if your dress has an open neckline to warm up your neck and chest with a dusting of bronzing powder if necessary to even out skin tone. I like the look of Laura's Mineral Bronzer.

Your eyes should be defined, but not overdone. Keep in mind that dark or sparkly eye shadow shades can distracting. Long-wearing, waterproof formulas like Blinc's Kiss Me Mascara are a must for preventing makeup meltdowns and lasting through any teary moments. When it comes to false eyelashes, I recommend getting individuals verses strip lashes. They look more natural, and can be tailored to suit your ideal look. Even better are lash extensions. They last 6-8 weeks and look AMAZING in pictures AND in person.
