I love the idea of winter weddings, the use of vibrant colors and breeze in the air but winter weddings has its drawbacks. During winters our skin gets chapped and dry, this is the reason winter bridal makeup is regarded as a bit complicated. All this shouldn’t stop you from looking smoking hot in your wedding; after all it’s the day you dream about…right?

To look perfect during your wedding you need to keep some factors in mind and today I am going to share some guidelines that will work like a charm.

Moisturize and Exfoliate: Dry winter dries our skin easily which can lead to redness, dullness and to avoid such situation it is important to take preventions. Start moisturizing and exfoliating your skin regularly in the weeks leading up to wedding as this will enhance your complexion. After all, you do not want to put makeup on dry and flaky skin, right? The better your skin the better makeup will look.

Right Base Makeup: Since our skin dries during winter it is really important to choose based makeup according to the temperature. Use hydrating primer as this helps in preventing dry and flaky skin; it makes skin silky smooth and foundation glides easily after using primer. When I talk about foundation, I mean winter foundation…. Yes, you need to switch up base makeup according to weather. Go for silicone based foundations as they are easy to work especially in winters and select powder foundations as liquid foundations don’t work well in cold weather.
