I absolutely love my hair and makeup.. but my only problem is the foundation is setting in my pores.. I don’t want this to happen on my wedding day.. can this be prevented?

    I swear by Dior Airflash foundation. Go to a Dior counter at Nordstrom or go to Sephora and have someone apply it earlier in the day and see how it wears throughout the day. If you can go to an actual Dior counter at a place like Nordstrom and they’ll use the brush specifically made for the Airflash foundation. Any brush will work fine but the brush they use is even better.

    My HMUA acrually used a pore filling primer on my trial bc i was worried about the same thing. Talk to your artist and see if they have suggestions.

    I don’t believe so. I used airbrush before and don’t like it much.. it melted off my face.

    I would probably just go to Sephora and see what they recommend! They can also give you samples so you can wear them throughout the week to see what works best for you.

    I find that Fenty Beauty foundation stays on ALL day regardless of the primer. I use a cheapie $10 Loreal primer and Fenty Beauty foundation

    It looks beautiful!

    You could also try using a toner before applying the makeup it shrinks pores (temporarily) but it might help. Also bring a touch up kit with a small brush and translucent powder if it starts to settle into fine lines.

    You look beautiful Smiley love

    I find Benefit Porefessional so good also for minimizing pores also. Definitely pop into a Sephora or Ulta Beauty and get some samples to try. Don't forget to speak with your makeup artist also. He/she may have some great suggestions!

    Benefit cosmetics has a primary called "the pore fessional" I've had good luck with that. Also try a powder setting product.

    Oh that looks amazing girl! I would definitely just look into a different primer, that should definitely solve the issue.
