Q&A Beauty Our experts give their advice to help you look your big-day best BABY IT’S COLD OUTSIDE Can you suggest a showstopping make-up look for my fabulous winter wedding? This time of year is perfect for ditching the fake tan and showing your natural beauty! Porcelain skin glows when applying a dewy foundation highlighted with powder contour and blush to define the cheekbones. An eyeshadow palette with natural nudes and sparkly bronze shades are ideal for creating classic and stylish looks. Getting a lash-lift treatment before the wedding is the perfect way to create volume and add colour to your natural lashes – you won’t have to worry about wearing waterproof mascara. When it comes to lipstick, it’s always nice to choose a colour you feel comfortable in for some added confidence on the day. Why not think about adding a high-shine gloss over the top of the lipstick? Before your wedding day, it’s a good idea to create a moodboard with looks and trends you like alongside a photo of yourself to compare your skin tone and eye colour. Don’t get stressed about your make-up. If you allow time to practice or ask your make-up artist to do a trial or two, then the experience will be enjoyable on the day! Georgie Burrows | Gracie B LTD www.gracieb.co.uk www.gettyimages.co.uk LOVE IS IN THE HAIR What is the most effective way to reduce frizz? If your hair is naturally frizzy, hot weather or rain will be a problem. Our number one treatment to help reduce frizz is a keratin smoothing treatment, a semi-permanent hair method that lasts three to six months. The service is gentle on hair, and you’ll still be able to create a curl. Here are a few other ways to stop frizz... ❤ Rinse your hair with cold water after washing to prevent the strands from over-drying. ❤ Invest in hydrating products. We use the L’Oréal Absolut Repair Nourishing Hair Serum, a lightweight product that smoothens the hair. ❤ Use a nourishing hair mask to help combat frizz by sealing in the moisture. ❤ Get rid of your old hairdryer, which can overheat and damage the hair cuticles. ❤ Let your locks air dry for as long as possible, and use a hairdryer on a medium heat once 80 per cent is dry. Finish with a shot of cold air to create a smooth and glossy finish. Natalie Lyons | Sassy Hair www.totallysassy.co.uk ASK THE EXPERTS 63
