A bride-to-be or anyone who has become a bride, can vouch for the fact that they find or once found themselves flooded with questions before deciding which bridal makeup artist to go with for her wedding ceremonies and how to go about the makeup look. The makeup artist for one of the most special days of your life isn’t something you can take your bets on, are we right, girls? We are all improvising and adapting to the changing trend and when it comes to planning your D-Day, everything must be perfect to the T.
When it comes to picking a professional makeup artist, our personal suggestion is something we have been incorporating for a long time now, is a trial consultation with your makeup artist before your wedding day. Even if the pandemic has postponed your big day or preponed it culminating in an intimate wedding, there is no wrong time to have a heart to heart with your makeup artist.
Having said that, let’s talk about what exactly goes around during a trial consultation. The prime purpose of a trial consultation before your wedding is for the makeup artist and the bride-to-be to understand each other before venturing into the look for the wedding day. Besides finding an answer to the main question that whether the makeup artist will be available on your desired date or not, here are some of the thoughts and queries that are exchanged between the bride-to-be and the makeup artist that we have experienced over the years -
One of the topmost things that trial consultation offers is for the bridal makeup artist to understand the bride's vision, her own understanding of bridal makeup and makeup in general.
It is so important and cannot be stressed enough that, way before the makeup comes into play, or the makeup products come into play, for that matter, it is absolutely vital that the skin of the bride-to-be is understood first. There are a million things that can go wrong if the skin is not understood before the makeup is planned! Is that the risk any of us is willing to take, we think not!
Two types of techniques we personally perform are HD Makeup and Airbrush Makeup (read our blog on the same for understanding these two better). Now, both are different in their application and preference of each vary from skin to skin. Hence, for the bride-to-be to understand how these techniques work is of utmost importance.
These pointers are just the trailer to the movie, that is, your wedding makeup so the star of the movie must shine!
