1)     Weigh your options carefully
Your wedding day is one of the most important days of your life! You are spending so much time choosing the perfect napkins, centerpieces, Hors d’oeuvres, and making sure that your dress and hair are perfect. But are you thinking about and planning for your makeup? While it may seem menial at first, when you really think about it your makeup artist choice it can greatly affect your style and look on your wedding day. Because of this, it’s important that you weigh all of your choices correctly. Ask friends for references, check reviews, and meet your options in person. Schedule trials and ask questions! It’s okay to be picky and know what you want.

2)     Keep an open line of communication
One of the most beneficial things you can do with your makeup artist is to keep open lines of communication. Find examples of what you want on Pinterest or in wedding magazines and share with her what you are picturing. Give her all the information you possibly can – show her your wedding dress, venue, and share what your hopes are for your look on the big day. When you are at a makeup trial, it’s okay to say that you don’t like something the makeup artist has done. Makeup can always be removed and redone and it’s most important that you are satisfied and feel comfortable. If the makeup is too heavy, doesn’t match your style, or just simply isn’t what you want, let your makeup artist kindly know! It’s their job to make sure that you look flawless.

3)     Remember you’re hiring an expert for a reason
​Sometimes it’s hard to step out of the box and try looks that you aren’t used to. However, it’s important to remember that you are hiring an expert makeup artist for a reason! Some women will choose to do their own makeup and are more comfortable wearing their everyday look on their wedding day. But if you’re looking for something that stands out more – let your makeup artist play around and find something that works for you! Just like trying on wedding dresses, sometimes what you least expect can surprise you. Let your makeup artist provide suggestions, have her try a few looks she thinks might work, and adjust from there.
