Wedding day make-up

With your husband to be and all those guests to impress- not to mention all those photographs to pose for- its vital you look the best you can. This is where make-up comes in.

We've all got our own unique style, and this should be reflected in your make-up on the big day. To look your best, aim for a more polished version of your everyday look without going over the top. Keep it simple and natural without appearing washed out; nothing too dramatic.

If you plan to do your own make-up, visit various beauty counters at department stores such as John Lewis, Selfridges and Harvey Nichols for a free consultation and some advice on what best suites you and how best to apply. Clarines, Bobby Brown are just a few of the brands that offer this service.

If your not too confident in doing your own make-up, use the services of a professional. Speak to your local beauty salon, who may already provide this service or know someone in the industry. Alternatively, search your local directory or google for one in your area. Visit Sacha and Fraser who offer hair and make-up styling.
