1. Always start with the smoky eyes! When I do this, clients think I’m mad because I haven’t started with their face. By doing your eye make-up first, any fallout or mascara spillages that might happen are easy to clean up before you put your primer on. It allows you to make a beautiful base with no marks or smears, providing the most flawless finish. 2. To make sure your look stays in place for the duration, use a primer at the beginning and a setting spray at the end of your application – both are so important. 3. Use your lipstick as a cream blush. This helps tie in all the tones that you’ve applied to your face. It also means you have a 2-in-1 product and it’s one less item in your handbag. Take it out with you, just run your finger across the bullet of the lipstick and dab it across the apples of your cheeks. Don’t forget to use the Beauty Hygiene Plus Quick Dry Makeup Sanitising Mist to make sure your lipstick and any other make-up is sanitised before use, especially when topping up on the go. Lisa Armstrong | Make-up Artist and Brand Ambassador for Beauty Hygiene Plus | www.beautyhygieneplus.com The makeover TOP MAKE-UP HACKS My favourite bridal hair look is modern elegance with a relaxed, undone twist. It’s not too formal and enhances the natural beauty. You can make it look even more special with a floral or crystal hairpiece. When it comes to looking after your hair, the biggest piece of advice I have is not to go it alone. Professionals are there to help you achieve the most beautiful look for your wedding. Around six months before the big day, get in touch with a hair stylist for guidance on the best routine for your hair type. You should also consider a deep conditioning treatment around two weeks before, to make sure that your hair’s in great condition. I’d always recommend booking a hair trial – that’s where I advise on the most suitable colour and cut to have, so my brides can achieve the look they have in mind.
