Wedding Wednesday: How To Prep For Your Bridal Makeup Trial

The days leading up to your bridal makeup trial can be just as important as the days before the wedding! Often brides don't think to start wedding beauty prep until a month or so before the wedding day. Since the bridal trial is usually a few months before, prepping for this is sometimes over-looked. Below are a few easy steps and tips to properly prep for the trial with your makeup artist. This will ensure that you get the best idea of how you will look on your big day!

Exfoliate your skin & lips gently the night before.
Make an appointment to have your brows cleaned up; 2-5 days prior to the trial.
Drink plenty of water leading up to your makeup trial; lemon water is amazing for your skin.
Bring photos of desired makeup looks.
Wear a cream or white shirt or blouse.
Most importantly, know your style and don't be afraid to speak your mind!
