Molly Sims has talked about both her wedding day (here and here) and about her wedding makeup over on her blog, and today she’s sharing her insights about getting great wedding photos with us!
Molly’s Tips on Wedding Makeup:
1. Put your makeup on an hour before photos.
Molly explains that this allows time for the makeup to mix with the natural oils of your skin, making it look, well, more natural.
2. Don’t overuse powder!
Molly has observed that brides tend to over-powder because they don’t want to be shiny (and I concur— I see both over-powdering and shininess all the time). Molly says the solution is to use less powder, but use it more often. You can have a bridesmaid or your photographer stash some in a bag for quick touch ups!
3. Get eyelash extensions.
Not only do they look nice in photos, but as Molly points out, they will save (precious!) time and hassle on your wedding day and the week of your wedding.
