Wedding Day Make-up.

Happy 2008 Everyone!

Here are some essential and important basics from make-up & hair artist Madeline Roosevelt.

Are you considering doing your own wedding day make-up? Everyday make-up and photography make-up fall into two different categories. When taking pictures, you will want to make sure it will last through a long day. This means it will withstand all the smiling, tears and nerves! This also means you will want to make sure it will highlight your best features so they stand out in the photographs.

If you are planning on getting married, make sure to plan a trial session six months in advance. Trust me, the earlier you get this out of the way, the better. Try to set up the make-up trial and hair trial on the same day so you can see how they will look together. Usually, it costs around $200 per head for hair and make-up to have it professionally done. It's well worth the price to look your best on your wedding day and to not have the stress of having to do it yourself. If you know you'll be nervous you'll certainly want to avoid applying eye liner yourself!

Last of all, the must have products to carry with you are lipstick, lip-liner and a pressed powder compact along with blotting papers to minimize shine. If you have more questions feel free to contact me at madi4475@yahoo.com or at 503.577.4732.
