Help with wedding make-up!?

I have extremely oily skin. In the summer time, my face gets super-oily and no make-up/foundation can stay matte-finished for more than 3 hours. I have my wedding this September, and what kind of products should I put on my face before I put on foundation/make-up so that my make-up will last and be matte-finished for the entire day? Also, my eye-shadow and eye-liner also become smeared due to oilyness, so any recommendations for the eye-lid area? Thanks a lot!Help with wedding make-up!?
Exfoliate the night before and use a good PH balancing toner. Also use this toner before you apply your foundation. I strongly recommend using Nicole Miller's foundation and pressed powder. It doesn't cake and feels very light, yet gives great coverage. Your skin will likely not be as oily either.


For your eyes, use a liquid liner. Liquid liner tends to stay put better and even is a bit more defining and dramatic. Blend it so it doesn't appear jagged or harsh with a complimenting charcoal, or dark brown shadow. This will also keep it in place and won't run. Stay away from pencils and cream type shadows. They will crease and look horrible in just an hour. Stick to powder shadows and try a little something with a sparkle to it around the upper lid liner and the crest or peak of your eyebrows. This gives a fantastic look to your eyes.Help with wedding make-up!?

Try Almay for your face %26amp; make-up base. They have a base


that heals acne,%26amp; helps oily skin. Try the Remmel eye liners.


They sell them everywhere,even Walgreens has some of the


Remmel products %26amp; Remmel mascara is good too.


Get cornsilk face powder compact,it is a great product and


sold at Walmarts or Albertson's,ect......


Wash skin with Sea Breeze facial wash %26amp; cleanser.


Also,Alveno has a great face cleanser too if you have very


sensitive skin. Revlon has some very nice eyeshadows and


so does Almay,though Revlon may be a little less expensive.


Congrats on your wedding!!!


Also if you want to add sparkle %26amp; shine to your hair their are


some good hair polishers out,Samy has a great one in the


little pink pump.
There is a product that Clinique sells to help keep your eye makeup on. I am not sure what it is called, but it is in a tiny green compact and it looks like a concealer. You put it on before any eye makeup and your eyeshadow will stay on no matter what. I also have OILY skin. I got some for my wedding 2 years ago and have been wearing it since!
Bare Minerals has foundation and eyemakeups that really stay put.
This is your big day, and you will want to look perfect. Why not splurge and get a professional makeup job for that day?
Try ordering the Bare Minerals on TV. They are wonderful and so natural looking and doesn't feel like you're wearing any make-up at all! Best Wishes for your upcoming nuptials!
lancome do and amaxing matifying gel that I wore under my make up on my wedding day. Put it on at 12.00 didn't need a tp up till 7pm and them I just used a drop more gel ( can be used on your eyes too. The body shop also do oli blotting paper called papier pourdre very good stuff for blotting discretly through the day. Also the bare minerals powders work very well





Have you also thought about changing your skin care system? I used suffer terribly from oiliness till I moved from clinique to Estee lauder - been using it for 3 years now!





Hope this helps and enjoy your day and try not to think about your make-up!
