Renata Rensky, lead artist of Bridal Beauty by Renata<\/a>, shares her expertise about locking in a wedding makeup artist and areas of your body to pay attention to so that you’re prepped and ready for the wedding! <\/em><\/p>\n

A woman\u2019s wedding day is one of the most important days in her entire life! Every bride dreams of feeling gorgeous on their special day, but there are some crucial steps to take in order to make that dream a reality! <\/p>\n

If you\u2019re going to go this route, it\u2019s an absolute necessity to schedule an appointment at least two months in advance. The reason for this is that you need to determine ahead of time whether the wedding makeup is well-suited for your skin. A nasty allergic reaction is definitely one accessory you don\u2019t want to be sporting as you walk down the aisle!<\/p>\n

The day that you meet with your makeup artist, you should bring pictures of makeup looks and hairstyles that you like. However, it\u2019s also a good idea to stay open-minded to any recommendations that your makeup artist might have. An experienced and knowledgeable makeup artist can help you choose the right products based on your coloring and desired look. <\/p>\n

Keep in mind that makeup always looks different in person than it does on camera, particularly foundation. Therefore, it\u2019s essential to do a test run and take plenty of pictures. No one wants to look washed out in their wedding photos! Those pictures will stick around long after you say \u201cI do,\u201d so make sure that your makeup looks great on film prior to the big day.
\nChoose products that will last the entire event so that you feel beautiful all day (and night) long! That means you should carefully select high-quality, long-wear foundation, eye shadow, blush, and lipstick. <\/p>\n

These are all things that your makeup artist will advise you, but what about the things you can do on your own leading up to the big day? Yes, you have homework, too!<\/p>\n

Face:<\/strong>
\nFor flawless skin in person and on camera, forgo the sunscreen. SPF creams can cause your face to look chalky on camera.<\/p>\n

If you struggle with skin issues, such as acne, wrinkles or discoloration, get the blushing bride glow by consulting an esthetician or dermatologist. It\u2019s a good idea to do this at least six months before the wedding so that your skin can heal from any treatments in time for the special day. You could also look into getting a professional peel.<\/p>\n

Using a gentle exfoliate can help clear up annoying skin blemishes. It\u2019s best to choose one that utilizes round polyurethane beads rather than those made with apricots or nuts. Harsh scrubs can irritate the skin and enlarge pores.<\/p>\n

For soft and smooth lips, use lip balm made with natural ingredients like Vitamin E. <\/p>\n

Body:
\n<\/strong>There are a few things that you can do to get your body looking perfect for your wedding day. First and foremost, make sure to drink plenty of water every single day. Water helps to keep skin hydrated. Of course it\u2019s important to also watch your diet and avoid salty foods which can cause you to bloat. We want to make sure you fit into that stunning gown!<\/p>\n

As far as spray tanning or facial waxing is concerned, it\u2019s vital that you test them out prior to the week of the wedding. It\u2019s wise to start spray tanning a few months before the wedding so that you can determine the perfect skin tone. Face waxing, especially eyebrows and the upper lip, should be done at least two weeks before the wedding to avoid redness. <\/p>\n

Hair:
\n<\/strong>Hair can become damaged easily due to the effects of harsh weather and pollution. Prior to the wedding, you can get your hair looking healthy and shiny by visiting your local salon for some hair treatments. There are also many wonderful gloss and shine products on the market that will keep your hair looking perfect as you shake it on the dance floor with your new hubby.<\/p>\n

Make sure to do a few trial runs with your selected hairstyle so that it looks just the way you want on your special day.<\/p>\n
