The way you look should ha more than important -- it should be a tep priority. One very effective thing you can do in preparation for your wedding is te consut a beauty advisor. Do it well in advance of your wedding day se, you will h ave plenty of time te get started on a skia treatment regirmen that is geared for your individual needs. If your skin is oily, your beauty advisor mnight suggest a foundation desigmed te help control oily break-through and shime. But even if your skin is very oily, be very gentle when you cleanse your face, taking care mot te overscrub. If your skin is dry, try te achieve a soft, dewy look. Youll want that effect for photographs, and thora are foundations that will help. Fragrance is a bride's moet important accessory. You should choose your own fragrance, as well as those of your attendants, se that they will work well together. The Estee Lauder beauty experts recommend these steps te achieve a naturel makeup: 1. A bride's makeup should look naturel and radiant, subtle and net over-powering - a wesh of well-blended colour. Begin by smoothing on a sheer foundation. Use a sponge te blend. You will achieve a perfect; flawless finish. 2. Loose powder is a must for a vevety, porcelain finish. Using downward strokes, dust transparent face powder on face and neck with the side of a large, flufiy powder brush. Always brush with downward strokes. Loose powder minimizes shime on the nose, forehead and cheeks, which can be very distracting in pictures. If you have the opportunity te 'hint' for a special gift, ask for a makeup brush collection. Brushes provide a sheer diffusion of colour and help make application mistake-proof. They are the tools every good makeup artist uses. 3. Makeup should be chosen to match the colour of your dress and veil. Rosy pink shades (with blue undertones) can be worn with white, mvhile peaches and soft corals are lovely with ivory. 4. For a soft, wide-eyed look, use tw<> or three shades for your eyes. Ites best te stick with medium tenes for this important day. Too-colourful makeup is a definite 'don't because it will look very dated. Make sure there is enough depth of colour and that eyeshadow is applied and blemded well se that eyes will not 1'disappear' in photographs. Brush a glow of colour on the entire lid. A neutral or medium shade can be used in the crease for deFinition. If you prefer, soft mauves are also apprepriate. Pale pink and peach can then be added underneath the eyebrow to highilight. Again, lining eyes is very important for photography. Line the outer third of the upper lashes and along the outer third of the Iower lashes very finely with soft brown or black. If you use a pencil, smudge te soften the lime. Apply black or dark brown mascara. Liet it dry, separate lashes with a brush and reapply to tips only. This will give you a maturaI look. 5. Sweep powder blusher ini a medium shade high across the cheekbone and up aroumd the eyes. Brush a little along the hairline and down the neck in front of your ears. Soft colour should be chosen to blend with eye clour. If you need to tone down colour or soften edges, mix transparent face powder with blusher. 5. Lips are key.., Start by lining them with a colour that matches your lipstick colour or a neutral shade that matches your lips. As for lipstick colour, choose a medium tone. It wîll photograph botter than a very light or very dark shade. You'1l want your lips to be ini perfect condition. Lipstick keeps lips moist and lhp colour looking fresher, longer. Yur 7.
