Want to get the perfect look for your wedding day? Follow these easy tips to make sure that you and your stylist are on the same page.

1. Stick with the professionals. This isn’t a do-it-yourself occasion. Your own makeup collection may not be right for photography and all-day wear. Your friends may be great at applying makeup, but their skills won’t measure up to a trained makeup artist.
   
   
2. Book your appointment at a wedding spa. Bridal spa technicians specialize in wedding makeup. Look into combining your makeup application with a relaxing wedding massage on the morning of your wedding.
   
   
3. Schedule an appointment to have your makeup done once before your wedding day. Bring pictures from magazines to illustrate the style you’d like. While your wedding makeup may look heavier than you’re used to, it shouldn’t look heavier than you’re comfortable with.
   
   
4. Discuss airbrushed foundation options with your makeup artist. Airbrushed foundation has a light, flawless look. The foundation often lasts much longer than powder, liquid or cream foundations. If you go this route, be sure to work with a makeup artist with considerable experience using airbrushing techniques.
   
   
5. Moisturize your skin well every day and night for at least a month before your appointment. Foundation, particularly airbrushed foundation, applies much smoother on healthy, moisturized skin.
   
   
6. As your makeup technician to recommend a lipstick or gloss for your wedding. Be sure to purchase your own tube to keep with you for re-application throughout the day.
