The wedding dress isn't the be-all and end-all for a bride on her big day. She needs—well, at least I need—the perfect hairstyle, manicure and makeup too.
Right now, I'm focused on finding my dream makeup look. And thanks to some help from brilliant makeup artist, Alexis Ellen, I've narrowed it down to three.
The first is a sun kissed effect, which is very natural-looking and includes a bright, light eye and rosy pink lip. Next, is a classic Hollywood glamour look with cat-eye and bold red lipstick. And lastly, a more sultry style, featuring a smoky eye, bronzed skin and nude lip.
Shout out to my amazing hair stylist Julie Ferrante for giving me three truly special bridal hairdos. It makes a major difference when I can see the full effect. Also, thank you Crest 3D White Whitestrips—I'm all smiles now!
With that said, I will admit I'm still having real trouble picking a favorite—Help!
