What's your wedding make-up/beauty prep routine?

Hi everyone! I was just curious as to what everyone else was doing as part of your pre-wedding beauty routine? Is it different than it was pre-wedding? What has been your fav products or ideas?

Re: What's your wedding make-up/beauty prep routine?

  • I normally don't wear any makeup but since my mom is insiting I do on my wedding day I will. When I do use make up I use Mary Kay. I love it I feel like I don't have any makeup on & it stays perfect all day. My plan on my weding day is to stay as natural as possible just enhance my face a little. No odd colored eye shadow just a light natural shadow.

  • I am doing my same daily routine, wash, astringent, and moisturize. My sister is doing my make-up for the wedding and I need to go and buy some I guess. I usually use Neotrogena bc I love their stuff, and store bought mascara (Loreal) and eyeliner. I usually wear eye shadow when we go out or to church. Sometimes on a daily basis I don't have time and just don't care. I am thinking about getting some of the MAC cosmetics for the wedding. I guess I need to get on that since our wedding is only a month away.....aagh!
  • I'm not changing the products that I use but I plan to be more consistent in taking care of my face and skin

    I sometimes use the Olay Anti-Aging Facial Cloths because it helps to clean and exfoliate at once. I may continue to use at night before going to bed. 


    For my am moisturizer - Aveeno Positively Radiant w/ SPF 15
    I don't really have a pm moisturizer now, I will probably use something from Olay.

    Once a week I use this mask - St Ives Mineral Clay

    I break out on my skin if I don't use my regular Dettol Soap - not available in the US so I either get from London or home (Nigeria)  - I sometimes use this on my face as well and it works out fine. 

    I plan to get my teeth whitened - I will try out the Crest strips or see my dentist to get a whitening tray.. 
  • For the wedding make-up, I will be having a make-up artist do my face as well as my bridesmaids 
  • I'm not changing my daily routine skin care wise, but am trying to be more vigilent with it because sometimes I can get lazy about it.

    A few months before I am going to try and get manicures every couple weeks and maybe a facial or two to pamper myself and get my skin and face in better shape.
  • I've never really worn make up on a daily basis.  Sometimes I'll get into a mood and wear some which luckily nothing has really irritated my skin.  I do plan on having my makeup done so the little imperfections can't be seen during the wedding.  

    Otherwise I plan on just using the same face wash Biore lemish Fighting Ice Cleanser.
  • I started using the Clean and Clear package to try to get my skin cleared in time.  (It mostly worked.)  I also got my eyebrows and lip threaded and my underarms waxed the week before.
    This is a neglected planning bio.
    This is a belated married bio, with no reviews yet because I'm lazy.

    Sometimes I feel like people think that brides are delicate little flower princesses who get all dressed up and pretty for one special moment of their dreams, when really they're just normal people who just happen to be getting married. Things shouldn't have to be sugar-coated for grown-ass women. -mstar284

    I'm not changing any of my regular products however I do plan on taking better care of my skin by having a facial once a week for the month before. 

    As far as my make-up the day of I will be doing it myself.  I'm just going to pick a model from a magazine and do my makeup like hers.  It worked when I did my makeup for my  sister's wedding so I'm pretty sure I can pull it off for mine.

    I'll be having a french mani and pedi for sure.

    I'll be getting my eyebrows waxed.

    And I'm doing some teeth whitening probably with Crest Whitestrips
