Choose the Right Makeup and Hairstylist
To achieve the perfect look, it is essential to select a professional makeup and hairstylist that can create a tailored look for you. Look for a team that reflects your unique vision of your look and will go above and beyond to achieve it. Look for a professional makeup and hairstyling team that has experience in weddings and formal events, as they know which techniques work the best for the bridal party. You want to avoid makeup and hairstylists that do not specialize in weddings as they might not be up-to-date with the latest techniques and trends.
Prep your skin: If don’t already have a regular skincare routine now is a good time to commit to care. It’s important to ensure your skin is in tip-top condition. Use high-quality products that suit your skin type for best results. Prepping your skin beforehand will aid in blurring imperfections and smooth out fine lines and wrinkles that are a natural part of aging. Remember, good color begins with great skin!
Planning your look
Embrace a natural makeup look: As a mom, it’s essential to avoid overdoing it with the makeup – you want to look polished, not like a different person. When it comes to wedding day makeup, less is always more. Opt for a natural look and focus on enhancing your features. Neutral colors such as beige, gold, and brown work well with any skin tone. Avoid bright, bold shades as they can be overpowering.
Don’t forget about the eyes: The eyes are the windows to the soul, and on your wedding day, you want them to look stunning. When it comes to eye makeup, neutral shades such as beige, brown, and gold work best and stunning lashes will make your your eyes pop.
Choose the right lipstick: When it comes to lipstick, a nude shade is always a safe bet. However, if you’re feeling daring, go for a bold lip! If you prefer to wear a bold lip for your daughter’s wedding, go for something that complements your skin tone. Warm skin tones look great in peach, coral, or apricot colored lipsticks, while cooler skin tones look gorgeous in berry, red or pink shades.
Trial Run
A trial run is essential to prevent any last-minute mishaps. A professional team will offer a run-through where you can test the hair and makeup look. It will give you an idea of the latest trends and what will suit you best so that there are no surprises on the big day. This test run will help you gain confidence in the look you have selected, and you can rest assured that everything will be perfect on the day. Put your trial to the test and plan your trial date for a day that you’re celebrating something special or my personal favorite is planning it for the day of the bridal shower.
Wedding day makeup for moms doesn’t have to be complicated. By following a few simple guidelines, you can look radiant and confident on your daughter’s big day. Remember to prep your skin, keep it simple, highlight your best features, pay attention to your eyes, and choose the right lipstick shade.
