Be Beautiful, Learn
How from a Pro
by
Karen Croke
“Every face is an original.
Your makeup is personal... like a signature...” says
Juliet Stewart, an internationally known make-up artist
and consultant. On your wedding day, your signature should be beautiful
and simple
and Stewart will show you the way.
"
The most important thing for a bride to understand
is that you need to be comfortable with your face.
If you are not really into a lot of make-up, your
wedding is not the time to go with a total make-over
and lots and lots of make-up... she says.
Make-up should
be an accessory, just like your shoes, your jewelry
. It should enhance and emphasize your best features.
The
way you'll look on your wedding day should start
to take shape as soon as you
get engaged and the first step is to start taking good
care of your skin. "Most women are too
pre-occupied with colors and the make-up and they
overlook skin care,,, says Stewart. "
For your wedding, you want to have
beautiful skin; a nice, clean elegant look. Isn't that
every bride's dream? Color is just the icing on the cake...
Then next step in this skin care
regimen
should be to exfoliate your skin. Exfoliating
helps to polish the skin, removes the dead
skin cells on the surface of the face (which
can clog pores) and also helps with the proper
absorption of moisture to the skin.
Stewart recommends using Clarins
Gentle Refiner Exfoliater two or three times
a week. She likes Clarins products because
they are all botanical-based and great for
sensitive skin. Invest in a good moisturizer
and an eye cream, too. Estee Lauder's Renewal Eye
Cream is a good choice, and Origins has one, too. Here
are some other tips from Stewart, a former model who
was a national make-up artist for ten years.
Lips
"
Your eyebrows frame your face, the lips
balance it. These two features of your face
are the most important, so pay lots of
attention,,, says Stewart. For your lips, use a
conditioning treatment, such as Clarins Lip
Balm Treatment. "Put this on your lips every
night and apply it as a child would — all over
the outside of the lips and the lip line as well.
You may look silly, but it is the best way to
condition the lips...
Believe it or not, Stewart says
to exfoliate
your lips, too. "Try to do this twice a week in
the shower. Again, this helps to remove dead
skin, which tends to drink up any moisture on
the lip surface. "So, when you put on lipstick,
the moisture is absorbed right into the lips,
which is why the color always seems to be
fading,,, says Stewart. Make sure to exfoliate
and moisturize and you should have no
trouble with your lip color's staying power!
When lining the lips,
the biggest mistake
women make is following the pink pigment
in the lips instead of following the ridge..
Lip tip: When you browse
for new lip
color, apply it to the inside of your finger.
The color is the closest match to your lip
color, and it's easier to bring your finger up to
your lips to compare.
Foundation and Powder
When it come
time to choose a foundation,
choose one that fits your skin type, preferably
with an SPF factor and apply it to the skin on
your neck to check for color
match. Stewart loves Clarins Beauty Flash
Balm, which acts as a quick pick-me-up. You
spread a thin layer on your face and it helps
to give your foundation a more radiant effect.
