Natalie & Elizabeth’s Top Beauty Tips

Natalie & Elizabeth's Top Beauty Tips for Flawless Hair & Makeup

1-STAY TRUE TO YOURSELF.

FIRST AND FOREMOST, you are the one that will be living with these images of one of the most important days of your life. They’ll be passed down to kids and grand kids! Let who you are in that moment in time, shine through.

2-START A SKIN REGIMEN

I’m sure you’ve seen this many times already… But with repetition, it might stick. Start a skin regimen at least 6 months prior to your big day and please don’t bounce around trying out different products right before your wedding. That’s a Huge no-no for your skin especially if you breakout easy or have sensitive skin. Skin needs time to adapt to a new routine, so give it six months... minimum. It would be ideal to seek a professional to get a proper skin assessment, and go from there. You absolutely don’t have to spend a million dollars for good products. And of course a good diet and plenty of water helps get that beautiful glow that every bride wants and deserves. And hey, what’s the harm in maintaining a good skin routine anyway! Your older self will be VERY grateful.

3-TAKE CARE OF YOUR BROWS!

They truly help shape your face. Seeing a brow specialist every three to four weeks starting about six months (that magic time frame again) before your wedding is ideal. If you need to grow them out, start as soon as possible. Be patient with them. I do find micro blading to be very helpful in certain cases. Make sure not to just go for the cheapest you find, this is your face after all. I repeat, IT’S YOUR FACE. Shop around, lots of great brow artist out there.

4-GET YOUR LIPS KISSABLE!

If you want your lips looking luscious despite the drying effects of long wearing lipsticks, get in the habit of gentle exfoliation and moisturizing on a regular basis. I prefer to use a smudge proof or long wearing lipstick at least for the ceremony, no guy likes lipstick transfer. But let's be honest, when lips are dry that type of lipstick can look AND feel awful. Take care of your lips and that smile will be perfect!

5-HAIR + MAKEUP TRIALS

I would say about half our brides get a hair and makeup trial. As artists, we know this is something that can help put you at ease on your big day. I always like to suggest using your trial run for a dress fitting or engagement shoot or even bridal shower! This way you’ll be able to wear it and really get a feel for how you like it. Now there are many clients that we don’t do trial runs on. AND THAT’S OK!! There’s nothing like a good old school conversation and really talk about what you’re envisioning. Having that old school conversation over the phone and really talk about what you are envisioning.

6-GO LONG

If you have always dreamed about having long luscious locks, no need to worry, we love adding in temporary clip in hair extensions to create the long hair look you’ve always envisioned but couldn’t grow out. Not only used for length, but to create any type of fullness as well. We’ve all been here and struggled with these issues. Let the professionals help you.
