Wedding Day Tips from Bobbi Brown

Flash photography emphasizes pink tones, so be sure to even out skin with a yellow-toned foundation. Startaround the nose and mouth where there’s redness, then blend out to therest of the face.
Set concealer and foundation with Sheer Finish Loose Powder to make them longer-lasting and to ensure thatskin looks matte in pictures.
If your dress has an open neckline, be sure to warm up your neck and chest with a dusting of Bronzing Powder.
Use a water-resistant liner that can withstand tears; try Long-Wear Gel Eyeliner applied with the Ultra FineEye Liner Brush. If you prefer to line with shadow, make it longer-lasting by applying it with a slightly dampEye Liner Brush. Finish with a waterresistant mascara like Lash Glamour.
After applying all your eye makeup, finish with a highlighter shade on the browbone to make eyes pop. Rub your finger in a light matte shade and pat lightly on the outer corner of the browbone.
For a pretty flush that lasts, use two shades of Blush. First, apply a neutral shade on the apples of cheeks, blending up into the hairline, then downwards to soften. Then apply a brighter shade just on the apples of cheeks.
Neutral and pale lip colors look washed out in photographs, so choose a lipstick that’s one to two shades brighter than what you normally wear. Pinks, roses and plums are great choices for brides.
To make Lip Color last longer, line and fill in lips with Lip Pencil before applying your lipstick.
Carry a touch-up kit with concealer, pressed powder, lipstick or gloss, lip liner, tissues, mints, and a mini sewing kit (for emergency clothing fixes like a dropped hem or popped button).

Have Fun!
