My wedding is in 3 weeks. I had almost 5 mths to plan but when I first asking around about makeup artist, most was not available during the holiday weekend, July 6th. There is a 17 year old that I know who does make up for all of the girls for proms & dances & she does a fabulous job. That is literally all she does is buy make up & watch Youtube videos. I went for a trial with her & she seemed to have caked on the foundation. I think it had to do more with the powder. I am 44 & my skin is older than the young ladies she does make up on. I am afraid I will have to end up doing my own make up & I want my pictures to be great...and my hair which I am doing on my own. Short hair. Anyway, I definitely have to get my eyebrows waxed some because they have gotten out of control and I will tweeze where needed. If I don't do that now, my make up will not adhere to my face. Anyone doing there on make up? What products do you use? Especially foundation that has good coverage but is light & won't emphasize wrinkles. Lol. I am at work and we are slow & I played with makeup...I have never been good with it. I was a tomboy growing up & just never work much. Thanks for any feedback.

    Right! OMG, like how would you fix it?? Lol. I am NOT taking that chance. I am naturally pale so I needed some color. I didn't lose weight like I swore I would. I have just stress ate. So I need to rock the hair & make up. Don't look at the waist. Lol

    I say go to Sephora and try different make ups to see what the experts recommend for your skin. They can do your make up for a $50 purchase or you can do trial on different foundations. You might also need to do a little of skin preparation to avoid the cake face as maybe you have more dry ski. You can still go with the 17 year old as long as you provide the make up you like and follow the instructions they tell you. Do another trial to practice. I do not recommend to do your own wedding simply because the amount of pressure it puts in yourself and the extra stress. If you’re not a make up person you can have a bad day to do your own make up. Don’t recommend it.

    Another option is to have your make up done at Sephora. The girls there do some work on their own so you can also ask them if they’re available. I personally think this would better instead of having to drive to the mall for this but that’s an option.
