There will definitely be times surrounding your wedding that you may have a problem with your skin or makeup that needs to be fixed immediately, so what is a bride to do? I have some easy tips to help you out with unexpected problems that may come up around your wedding day or any other special occasion from my experience as a San Antonio makeup artist.

• If you get an unexpected sunburn, try to ease the redness with cool compresses. Moisturize well, and cover it with a mineral makeup foundation, which is the most natural foundation that won’t irritate skin any further. It will also help to cover up redness.
• If you have any bruises, cover them with a color corrector before you put on your foundation to neutralize the dark color.
• If you are looking pale, then opt for a self tanning lotion, which does need to be applied regularly the week before your wedding for the most natural look.
• If your eyes are tired or puffy from crying, then apply a used tea bag for several minutes. Caffeinated tea is preferable because caffeine will work as a vasodilator to reduce puffiness.
• Curl your lashes to instantly open up your eyes and draw attention to your peepers.
• Always moisturized regularly so that your final wedding makeup application will go on smoothly without looking cakey or heavy.

I hope that these tips were helpful to you in avoiding any type of issues for the perfect makeup application. There are definitely problems that can occur, but you’ll avoid all the stress by having these handy tips to help you out on your wedding day!
