To make my wedding day perfect, my makeup must look good. No excess oils, no blemishes and definitely no under-eye bags. As incredible as the makeup artist may be, failure to prepare is preparing to fail. In this case, our preparation must stem from our skincare routine.

A fresh face is a fresh base

A tried and tested cleanser will be the bread and butter to a flawless application and long-lasting makeup. It is essential to clean and refresh your pores and skin daily, nevermind on the most important day of your life! Help your skin to reflect the purity of your relationship and your wedding, whether that be with a traditional white frock or a pair of neon pink Jimmy Choos.

 Use something with calming and regenerating properties, I would avoid anything with potent actives like salicylic acid or retinol. Stay simple and safe. For days like this, where I don’t fancy being threatened by a breakout or any pilling, I use something like the Body Shop Camomile facial cleanser. It is enriched with camomile (obviously) and shea butter, helping to calm and relax the skin. In addition, its natural premises are suitable for any skin type.

The eyes are the windows to the soul

Remember those eyebags I mentioned? Well you’ve woken up with them and you have to call off the wedding right? Wrong. Simple fix: Transformulas Marine Miracle Eyezone. Engage with the endless benefits of this compact product, watch as it rids dark circles and (with consistency) can minimise your crows feet. Detoxifying and revitalising, it is drowning in natural antioxidants and Aldavine 5X to unveil your smoothest under eyes and strengthen your base ready to apply a sundry of products.

I ‘dew’

The only thing that should be dry on your wedding day is the weather. Treat your skin to a marine enriched, naturally healing moisturiser. Marine Miracle Crème is the foundation for a successful base. Easily combined with foundation for a lighter, summery glow or strong enough to maintain the structure of your makeup for all wedding-themed activities.

Create the foxy look

Megan Fox and Kendall Jenner’s lifted eye look is one sought after by many and easily attainable with Transformula’s Eyelifting in a Tube.
