These are some game changing tips for brides to look flawless at all times. So if you are looking at a very soft touch of makeup you can get it by using any foundation and adding the moisturizer and sunscreen to it. Make it work as BB cream to get that flawless look and yet not look fully covered. For natural flush on cheeks apply cream blush. It gives glowing natural cheeks. Quick hack - use a lipstick instead in case you don’t have a cream blush. And lastly, for ensuring long lasting lipstick colour, apply the same corresponding shade of lip liner as base and pack the lipstick over it!

I would give three important makeup tips to brides who are doing their own makeup for the wedding. First is practice your makeup look. Finalize your wedding day makeup and practice it on your face at least 2-3 times before the big day. Click pictures after you apply it to see how it photographs. This way you know what to change instead of last minute chaos on your wedding day. The second would be to invest in makeup products that you will use even later. We have tons of products because that’s our work but that doesn’t mean you need to invest in so many products. Buy stuff that you will need later too. And lastly, if you are planning a dramatic eye makeup, go subtle on colours on the rest of your face. This way that particular look becomes a statement look! All the best and have fun.

Here are some tips for brides to be! Clean your makeup brushes before using them. Even though they are your own brushes, residual makeup and other irritants in the brush can cause skin problems. Do not try any new products as your wedding day approaches. New products may work wonderfully but sometimes may not suit your skin. Healthy skin is directly related to fabulous makeup. Use a generous amount of a moisturiser that suits your skin before putting on makeup. Use as little product as possible - less is more! Sometimes, even a good concealer is enough. You don’t always have to use a foundation.

Use a colour corrector on areas of discoloration, pigmentation & acne marks. Choose the right undertone of concealer. Concealers do have undertones warm, cool and neutral just like foundations. When using a lighter shade of concealer use it for highlighting & not for hiding imperfections on skin. A highlighting concealer is different from hiding concealer. Use a concealer that matches your skin tone closely to cover pigmented areas on skin.

To make water line kajal long lasting without smudging under the eyes, dab black colour eye shadow with the help of small flat or pencil brush on top of kajal. Always choose a dark brown eye brow pencil or powder for natural looking eyebrows

Always use a corrector before concealing avoiding greying of the pigmented area. Correct and Conceal pigmented areas well to avoid over layering of foundation on the skin. Do your eye makeup before the base to avoid fallout ensuring a fresh look.
