Use a slightly heavier hand than with your usual daytime makeup so your photos won't have you appearing washed-out looking, but don't overdo it. And if your wedding is at night, with more subtle lighting, apply makeup as though you were going to a club or restaurant at night – a little heavier than daytime, but not much! Avoid deep red lipstick as well as too-pale pink. Frosted eyeshadows or lipsticks are definite no-nos.
Buy fresh mascara to avoid clumping. Also, if you have sensitive skin, this is NOT
time to try a new brand. The last thing you want to do is head for altar with blotches or zits thanks to an allergic reaction.
The night before your wedding is not time for partying so get eight hours of restful sleep. If you're having a rehearsal dinner, or a bachelorette bash, make sure that it ends early. Drink moderately or, better yet, not at all. Bloodshot eyes and a banging hangover will not make for a fun wedding.
Don't gourge yourself night before because we all know that there are strange forces at work which will try to make your wedding gown just a wee bit snug in morning. To overcome excitement and nerves, try taking a long walk - it can help with pre-nuptial jitters. A relaxing bath with soothing background music, a cup of herbal tea, and you should be ready to doze off with images of a happy future marriage in your dreams.
With these tips, you're sure to have perfect wedding day. May this day be beginning of a lifetime of joy and happiness!
