What are your thoughts on a bride doing her own make up the day of the wedding? Is that taboo? Or okay,personalized bobblehead?

Take into consideration that your wedding day is probably the day you will be most photographed in your entire life and you’ll want to look as good as you possibly can. But whether or not you decide to use a make-up artist is completely up to you. Remember, the most important thing is whether you feel beautiful on your big day.

I’,custom bobblehead;ve had my make-up done on several occasions and the best tips I can offer are:

Use a primer which is applied as a base layer for smoother, longer lasting foundation application. I like Nars Makeup Primer and Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer. Experiment with false eyelashes – the individual clusters as well as the single strip because different styles look better on different people. False eyelashes will really make your eyes stand out in your wedding photographs. I always wear false eyelashes for any special ocassion,customized bobbleheads!
