Make-up Trend: Bride & Beautiful (Vogue India)

With the wedding season in full swing, we're sure all brides-to-be are experiencing last minute jitters. Looking picture perfect on the most important day of your life can seem like a daunting task. They key to let your inner bride shine is to plan in advance to avoid any beauty emergencies on your big day. Every bride should plan her beauty kit keeping in mind the quality, longevity and actual use of the products. Your wedding day is not the time to try anything new, instead make sure you invest in tried and tested products which have worked well for you in the past.

From a basic hydrating moisturizer to a perfecting foundation primer, invest in high end products which are known for what they do. Avoid becoming the ghastly, pale over-foundation-ed bride and instead look for a foundation that offers sheer-natural coverage with a boost of light-reflecting particles. Because most Indian brides go the red-maroon route on their D-Day in terms of their attire, you should take time and find the perfect shade of red lipstick for your skin tone. Thoughtful planning can mean fewer touchups. After all you wouldn’t want to waste the most important day in your life worrying about non-waterproof mascara.
