Suki Transformative Clay Cleanser

post from Hooked On Beauty on 05 October 2011 05:04:27 PM. © Hooked On Beauty

Suki is one of the few brands where I like their philosophy, safe ingredients, and everything I’ve tried from them. I’m slightly obsessed with their Transformative Clay Cleanser which also acts as a mask and spot treatment. I lay down a thin layer and let it set for 5 or 10 minutes, then I use my Clarisonic to buff it into my skin as a cleanser which re… Read More...

Choosing Your Wedding Day Makeup and Hair Look

post from Beauty for Brides by Vicki Millar on 05 October 2011 04:13:40 PM. © Beauty for Brides by Vicki Millar

Choosing your wedding day makeup and hairstyle can seem overwhelming for some. From my experience there are 3 types of brides...

Bride # 1: These brides know exactly how they want to look and there is no chance they will change their mind.

Bride #2: These brides have a very good idea of what they want to look like but are open to suggestions.

Bride #3: These are the brides who struggle to figure out what their wedding hair and makeup style should look like and get frustrated because they just can't make a decision.

For all the #3's out there....this blog entry is for you! : ) First off, don't worry! You are not alone so don't feel there is anything wrong with being unsure of how you want your bridal makeup and hairstyle to look ahead of time. There are a lot of brides that I meet at my trials that are really unsure about their hair and makeup style and although they have lots of beautiful pictures from bridal magazines to show me they still aren't sold on any one particular look for themselves. This is why trials are so important and why booking with a professional who doesn't rush you through your trial is even more important! But I digress! (that's for another day and another blog entry.) : )

Below I've gathered some of my top tips for helping those ladies who are struggling with choosing their wedding makeup and hairstyle. Don't fret....help is here! : ))

Tip 1: Consider seasonal weather conditions...

No matter what month you're getting married in you'll need to consider the weather. For example, let's say you're getting married in July and you have long thick hair and you think you'd like to wear your hair down with light, loose curls. In a case like this, you need to consider whether your hair frizzes in high humidity and/or how long your curls will actually hold on the day. No one knows your hair and skin better than you do so when choosing a hairstyle or a bridal makeup look think through what will really work well for you on your wedding day taking into consideration all the elements. Discuss this at your trial and together you and your makeup/hair artist will come up with the best look perfectly suited just for you!

Tip 2: Think back to a time when you felt you looked your best...

That might have been an evening out with your fiancé or a time when you were away on vacation but it's a moment you remember. You probably looked at yourself in the mirror and thought "hey, I look good/hot/gorgeous right now." Think back to how you wore your hair and how your makeup looked. How did you feel? Did you feel glamorous and alluring or natural and effortless? When considering what makeup/hairstyle will suit you best on your wedding day think back to the times you felt you looked your best and this is the style you should be aiming for.

Tip 3: Ask your fiancé his opinion on how he visualizes you looking on the big day.

Ask him before your trial and combine his wants with your wants so that you're both thrilled with the end result. Let's face it....you are marrying the man of your dreams and his opinion should matter in regards to your makeup and hair. As one of my brides recently wrote to me... "I mesmerized him when I walked down the aisle!" This is what every bride wants for sure!

Hope this helps all you #3's out there! See you all soon!www.vlmakeup.comvm@vickimillar.com416 953 5737
