"Take a cue from the latest makeup and hair trends: Try pairing a soft eye look with a long-lasting liquid lipstick for a beautiful look that won’t budge, no matter how many times you lean in to smooch your spouse."

YOUR WEDDING DAY MAKEUP CHEAT SHEET:

Matte eye shadow in muted shades
Waterproof mascara—keep those joyful tears at bay!
Eyeliner in a brown shade for soft definition
Long-lasting liquid lipstick for a kiss-proof pout
Golden, shimmery cream highlighter and rosy blush
Stay-all-day makeup setting spray—you’ll want to look your best from beginning to end!

For wedding day hairstyles, try accessorizing with tiaras or gemmed head chains for a regal, chic look. Experimentation is key: Set up a trial wedding hair styling session with a pro stylist at your favorite salon to figure out what styles best suit you, your hair type, and your ceremony

OF COURSE, A BLUSHING BRIDE CAN NEVER GO WRONG WITH A CLASSIC UPDO OR CHIC BRAID.

Also be sure to test your makeup look and products beforehand. Browse the Web for ideas to take with you to your appointment. Image-sharing services like Pinterest, Instagram, or Tumblr are chock-full of fun and original beauty looks.
