If you’re getting married in the near future, there are a few things you should know before you think about hiring someone to do up your face or stock up on the right products. Here are a few tips and tricks to keep in your arsenal, courtesy of Glamour magazine.

1. Don’t wear lipstick. You’ll be wasting a lot of time having to re-apply, and you know it’ll rub off with all that champagne and kisses. Use a lip stain instead for long-lasting color, like Tint for Cheeks & Lips.

2. Skip glittery products. You want your face to glow, not sparkle on your big day. Too much shimmer can make your face look shiny and reflective in photos, so stick to products without added glitter.

3. Primer will be your best friend. Instead of relying on cakey powder (which will make your face look flat and dull on photos), make your makeup stay put by using a primer before application. BECCA Cosmetics – Ever-Matte Poreless Priming Perfector is a safe bet that will zap any extra shine.
