Get gorgeous and avoid wedding-day disaster with these Few amazing makeup and beauty tips for any bride, bridesmaid, or guest.

1. Choose foundation to match your skin Color or Tone:
The key to finding the perfect foundation to match your skin tone is to check the colour in natural daylight. After all, on your wedding day you are most likely to spend a large proportion of it in natural light. Remember to always check a foundation along the jaw line to guarantee you don't leave a tide-mark and extend it towards the neck.

2. Do your eye makeup first:
If you do the skin first, then eyes, you lean all over the face while applying the eyeshadow. Same goes for brides doing their own make up by the time you have finished the look your blusher which was so carefully applied is all over your palm!
Prep cleansed skin and then go straight into brows and eyes. Then you can just wipe away any eyeshadow "fall out" with a small fluffy brush or a cotton pad with some remover on without affecting your base. It's much easier this way!

3. Don't forget concealer:
Although foundation will definitely give you the coverage you need to even out any blotchiness, concealer is still a bridal beauty must to get rid of any unwanted shadows that might persist after foundation application. Use a small concealer brush to erase dark circles.

4. Use light eye shadow as base:
Begin on your eyes by applying a light eye shadow all over the eyelid. This is the best way to open up the eye and make them stand out more in photographs. Then you can apply the colour of your choice from the upper lash line to the crease of your eye. Blending is the key to good make-up, so be sure you don't leave any harsh line.
It's also worth mentioning that you need a separate eyeshadow primer. You can find some amazing ones on the market.

5. Use lip liner that matches your lipstick shade:
There are no hard and fast rules over whether to opt for a lipstick or a gloss on your wedding day. Some simply prefer one to the other. Whichever you veer towards, be sure to use a lip liner similar to the colour of your choice and blend using a cotton bud to prevent the lipstick or gloss from bleeding.

6. Don't Over Powder:
Powder can dull the skin and look very cakey. Apply with a large fluffy brush and "press" the product on as opposed to wiping it on in big circular motions. Also only powder where it is needed – if you want a "glowy" makeup, just apply powder to the T-Zone (forehead nose and chin). The powder does set the makeup but you don't want to take away all the nice work of the foundation! Texture in skin is normal. It's nice to see parts of the skin with a glow and other parts matte.

7. Best Perfume:
Use you Favorite Perfume but in little Quantity and Let every one smell it.
