Fashion Trends & Tours in Italy

Increasingly women are preferring designer or high street dresses to the traditional wedding dresses; it seems to be the new trend for modern brides.

Liz Savage, editor of Brides magazine, says:

“There are a lot of women who don’t want to wear a traditional wedding dress. Designers such as Valentino, Elie Saab and Christian Lacroix including dresses that are perfect for modern brides in their ready-to-wear collections.”

After choosing the wedding dress, here you are a few bridal beauty tips:

• Don’t have intensive beauty treatments the day before, as skin can react to, and is more sensitive in, the heat. Have a skin microdermabrasion facial about a month beforehand - then pedicures and manicures the day before.

 

• Well-groomed eyebrows are essential. Invest in a professional to shape them - done properly they can transform your face.

 

• Keep it natural. Daylight can be quite unflattering if you pile on make-up, especially powder. What you really want is flawless skin - try to get a slight base tan ahead of the day without burning so it evens out your skin tones.

 

• Use cream products that aren’t too greasy - you don’t want to look melted in the sun. Creamy textured concealers, blushes and eye creams are much more hydrating on the skin and they are also easier to blend.

 

• To achieve a flawless-looking complexion, don’t apply loads of foundation. Instead, use a cream concealer to build up coverage where your skin really needs it - and blend, blend, blend. Finish with a light dusting of translucent powder to remove shine and help make-up stay put.
• Invest in a great skin illuminator - most brands do them and they will transform your skin and make it glow. Apply before foundation and then use on cheekbones to highlight.

 

• Finally - don’t kiss too many people. Foundation rubs off and men with stubble will give you red cheeks.
