Hello lovlies!
I will be the first to put it out there: I have amazing brides. I love what I do. I love being a bridal makeup artist and I love working with all types of women on their wedding day. I will from time to time however work with brides who are quite emotional. And why shouldn't they be? This is one of the most beautiful and important days of their life. Fortunately, I have an arsenal of products that will ensure that none of the gorgeous wedding makeup I applied on them will run when the waterworks start.
Since I love talking about bridal makeup products, I will let you in on my little secrets to create a smudge-free face for your special day!
Urban Decay All Nighter Long Lasting Makeup Setting Spray $29
I love this product for two reasons: 1) It's a product that actually does as the label promises. It IS a long lasting makeup setting spray and it WILL allow you to have fresh looking makeup all night long 2) You only need a little. Really. You only need to spray it three times across your face for maximum coverage. It's not one of those products that you have to use half the bottle for it to actually work.
Ben Nye Final Seal Matte Makeup Sealer $ Price varies
Now for those ladies who tend to get oily and/or sweaty throughout the day, this is a miracle product. While it can be hard to find in store, there are many place online to purchase this spray. This particular makeup sealer gives a matte finish, ideal for those who experience shine as the day wears on. Infused with spearmint, it temporarily minimizes pores so you stay looking shine free all day long. And it smells fresh and minty too!
Face Atlier Transforming Gel $26
Much like the Ben Nye Final Seal, Cinema Secrets eyeliner sealer can be hard to find in-store, but you should have no problem finding it online. This differs from the Transforming Gel in the way that instead of mixing it with a product, you simply apply a thin layer to the entire eye area if you want, or just over eyeliner to literally "seal" the product. I generally mix the transforming gel with liner, then set it with this product. You can cry all you want but it ain't gonna run!
Now that you have an idea of what it takes to make your bridal makeup last all day, you can rest assured knowing you wont have rings of black as you say "I do"!

What others way can one waterproof their bridal makeup you ask? Well I never leave home without my beloved Face Atelier transforming gel. This product will allow you to create waterproof eyeliner, eyeshadow, lipstick, blush and even mascara. Just add a drop to any powder or cream product and poof! Instantly waterproof once it dries. I use powder-to-cream eyeliner with this and brides are amazed that even through tears, their liner didn't move an inch. It's truly transforming!
