If you are highly confused as to which makeup package would be perfect for your D-day, we'll help you finalise the best

Every bride wants to look the absolute best on her wedding day. Flawless makeup, an elegant hair-do, dreamy lehenga and jewellery that stays in place throughout the ceremony. All of it needs to be picture perfect, right? However, needless to say, putting it all together can get too stressful and overwhelming during the pre-wedding prep phase. This is why we decided to share some important tips to keep in mind:

Money Matters

Hence, it is highly recommended to set aside a budget for your makeup. Maintain an excel sheet where you list all the makeup artists you are speaking to, alongside their charges. This can help you to compare which one fits in your budget perfectly. Mind you, it is very likely that you will opt for something out of bounds if you do not have a set amount in place.

Background Check

You could also ask them to send across their work portfolio to check if that matches the vibe you expect. 

Hair

Do a little self research and check out hairdo options on pinterest. See what suits your face cut and outfit well and list it out to your hairstylist for further modifications.

Hair & Makeup Trials

Trials could actually give your makeup artist an idea of what could work for your skin, the shape of the face, the colours to be used and more. We recommend you to book your trials a month prior, once your outfit is good to go.

Skin Issues

Last minute panic over covering your acne or pimples is a complete no. Some professional makeup artists could also suggest pre-make up treatments that could suit your skin the best.  Also read: Here’s Why Sunscreen Is A Must-Have Even During Winters!
