This also makes eye-shadow shades last longer<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Apply an off-white pencil to the eye waterline for a bright &#8216;wide awake&#8217; look. This has a great effect but is not as stark as a pure white pencil. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.boots.ie\/en\/Benefit-Eyebright_2503\/\" class=\"broken_link\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">Benefit Eye BRIGHT<\/a> is great for this.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20083\" title=\"Niki Make-Up\" src=\"https:\/\/weddingdates-wp-uk.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/2016\/01\/unnamed-1.jpg\" alt=\"Niki Make-Up\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-1.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-1-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-1-750x500.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Wedding Prep<\/h2>\n<p>In the run-up to your big day, clean your makeup brushes regularly; that means daily for liquid products like foundation, concealer, gel liner, lipstick. A thorough monthly clean will suffice for powder products like blusher, bronzer and eyeshadows. This will ensure your makeup is well applied. Dirty, clogged brushes will not achieve the same results and will spread germs on your skin.<\/p>\n<h2>Skincare<\/h2>\n<p>Be sure to adopt a good skincare routine of cleansing and moisturising well in advance. My top tip is to apply a facial serum before your moisturiser as this penetrates deeper into the skin to really improve its clarity. Serum also has great anti-ageing benefits when used regularly.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-20086\" title=\"Niki Lawrence Make Up\" src=\"https:\/\/weddingdates-wp-uk.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/2016\/01\/unnamed-3.jpg\" alt=\"Niki Lawrence Make Up\" width=\"1280\" height=\"854\" srcset=\"https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-3.jpg 1280w, https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-3-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-3-1000x667.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/qa.weddingdates.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/01\/unnamed-3-750x500.jpg 750w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For more details on Niki Lawrence Make Up go to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nikimakeup.co.uk\/\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" rel=\"nofollow\">www.nikimakeup.co.uk<\/a>\u00a0or call\u00a0<strong>07780 606277<\/strong> to discuss bridal party packages.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Images:<\/strong>\u00a0via Niki Lawrence MUA who styled each individual bride.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"If you are a bride on a budget or simply want to boost your skincare routine ahead of your big day, these simple tips will be super helpful&#8230; With over 10 year&#8217;s experience as a professional MUA, previously part of the renowned MAC Pro Team and having worked backstage at both London and Milan Fashion Week, we caught up with Niki Lawrence to get her expert advice on creating and prepping the perfect bridal look.
