Most brides have a few months at least to plan their weddings (current circumstances have thrown this into question for some, I know) but self-care, especially skincare is particularly important. Some brides focus so much on the makeup that they neglect the canvas. It’s a great opportunity to help get your skin into condition so your makeup sits flawlessly on the big day. The greatest thing anyone can do for their skin is drink a lot of water. That’s right-you don’t have to spend hundreds of pounds on fancy treatments; drinking straight water does wonders for your skin. Then getting into good habits like exfoliating regularly and feeding your skin with serums (I love Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair) under your moisturiser will also help. Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base is the perfect makeup base for your big day. 3. Don’t do anything new in the days prior to the wedding One morning, as I was going through my usual makeup routine I started to really think about what I was doing: was I using the right moisturiser before my foundation? Was I applying concealer that made my fine lines look worse? Is there another way I can define my brows without painstakingly drawing on tiny hairlike lines? It then occurred to me that maybe I should ask a professional rather than just hoping someday the answers would magically pop into my head. So that's exactly what I did.

That’s why I advocate having a separate make-up bag that holds just a few essentials for your day-to-day or for when you find yourself tearing around in a hurry. You can just grab the bag and know you have everything you need for a speedy make-up that could actually really positively impact your day. This is the story of how I decided to seek the help of a professional makeup artist. But not just any makeup artist. I wanted the help of Hannah Martin, the the wedding makeup artist to Princess Eugenie. Meet the exclusive, limited-edition Hannah Martin x Ciaté London Professional Brush Collection. The 24-piece kit contains every Eye, Lip, and Complexion brush needed for flawless application, buffing, and blending.

I’ve always encouraged make-up play. Some people I’ve met have grown up thinking make-up is taboo or vain or frivolous and I don’t want them to grow up with and negative connotations towards make-up. Often I’ll show young people photos and say, ‘Look at Jennifer Lawrence and how glowing and fresh her skin is and how natural her brows are’.

If you’re worried about the styles your children are emulating, maybe look on social media and see if there’s someone’s style you like and direct them that way, rather than just telling them you don’t like what they’re doing, or what they’re doing is wrong. Help boys interested in make up by introducing them to some of the biggest male make-up stars around When Martin asked me about blush, I blushed at my response. I told her that I dusted on the tiniest amount of pink-hued powder on my cheeks because I knew that I was (according to most makeup artists) supposed to. I was particularly scared of it after my dramatic hair colour change. However, after some gentle convincing, Martin showed me that it's all in choosing the correct shade. I needed a very light pink, preferably two-toned rather than one stark, bright pink colour.

If you’re concerned, take your child to a department store where they can get some advice. Throughout my career at Bobbi Brown I met loads of people who said, ‘I first started using Bobbi Brown when my mum brought me to the make-up counter at 15’. That can be great at diffusing a situation – rather than saying, ‘Your eyeliner’s too heavy! Your foundation’s too dark!’ Take them to the place they love the most, the beauty hall, and get the make-up artist to speak to them. Most make-up artists are clued in that if a parent brings a child in, it’s probably because they want some advice. I think sometimes young people would take it better coming from a make-up artist, rather than a parent. Take yourself out of the equation.

Now, I hate face powder. Even if my base is done correctly, I'd rather walk around like a shining disco ball than dust powder on my face. However, Martin may have talked me into coming round to the occasional dusting of the stuff to set my makeup. I always ask my brides to show me pictures of makeup looks that they like to help me understand better the kind of look they’re after on their wedding day. All too often I’m shown pictures of people with completely different colouring and features so I’ve learnt to ask my brides, alongside these inspiration images, to show me a picture of themselves that they really like so together we can identify what exactly made them feel most beautiful and incorporate that into their wedding day look. 2. Prioritise your skin Other things that can be handy are mints (again, champagne and nerves can play havoc with your breath!), a hanky (tissues can disintegrate on the face and even worse, get in your eyes and cause them to stream but a little dab of a handkerchief prevents that), an atomiser with your favourite fragrance - it’s always nice to have a little fragrance spruce! 6. Avoid using a foundation with SPFGrowing up through the ranks at Bobbi Brown she has since gone on to appear on Channel 5's '10 Years Younger in 10 Days' series as their resident beauty expert - winning the show Best Fashion and Makeup Show at the 2021 National Reality TV Awards.
