Makeup - to airbrush, or not to airbrush, that is the question

Morning Ladies!

Getting married in St. Thomas in July - think hot & humid.  I do not wear a lot of makeup AT ALL (I am wearing none right now).  Like many of you (I am sure) I have a fear of looking super fake at my wedding given that I have never met the makeup artist before.  

The salon I am going to has a "regular" option & an airbrush option.  Any opinions on what might be better in the heat, and better for a more natural look?  I plan on asking the salon the same question, but thought I'd get some expert advice from you ladies.  

Thanks!

I actually made an apt at a salon that didn't offer airbrush. I since changed and paying $35 more for someone to come to my room and will do airbrush. I never had it done but everyone says that's the best way to go for a flawless look and will be great with the Hawaii heat. I can let you know what I think after my May 16th wedding!

yup!  I agree with Jenn... airbrush is the way to go.

I wish the resort I was staying at offered it!.  I went to a wedding expo and they were doing free airbrush trials and it was awesome...looks natural and you don't even feel the "foundation" or make up on.

My one friend had airbrush for her wedding and it looked amazing... I'm in the same boat, I really don't wear make up but am considering airbrush. I need to check with my hotel to see if they have anyone that offers it...

I think airbrush looks a little fake if you do not usually wear make-up. I am the same way with make-up (hardly wear any). The person doing mine is going to give me a very natural look. We had a trial for my wedding shower and I loved it.

Could you maybe try it out somehow ?

Go with airbrush. Regular make-up will come off your face during the day. You don't want to worry about that on your wedding day or having to re-apply make-up when you are wearing your dress.

Thanks Ladies!  I think I'm going to lean toward airbrushing.  I don't want to be sweating away all day....
