Finding Your Artist
Do your research! Browse through the portfolios and testimonials of potential makeup artists online.

Look for diversity in their portfolio to ensure they can adapt to various styles and preferences that you have in mind.
Seek Inspiration
With so many wedding makeup styles and trends, finding inspiration is key to defining your bridal look. Explore bridal magazines, Pinterest boards, and even red carpet events to gather ideas together. Our best advice is to create a mood board that shows your vision for makeup, your dress, and hair ideas to share with your makeup artist during your trial. This helps ensure that your final look is a true to your style and fits perfectly with your overall vibe!
Book That Trial
Did you find your pro? Perfect! Now make sure you schedule a makeup trial session well in advance. This allows you to work closely with your makeup artist to make sure you’re completely satisfied with the look. Don’t be afraid to communicate your preferences and be open to adjustments until you find the perfect final look.
Don’t Forget Skin Prep!
Nail down a skincare routine. We definitely recommend going to a trusted esthetician to make sure you’re giving your skin exactly what it needs. Most experts will help guide you in selecting products for a great at home routine as well. Let’s face it, your makeup will only as look as good as your skin does underneath! Lastly and probably the most annoying tip no one wants to hear… drink tons of water!
