49 FINDING THE ONE I’m nervous about my first bridal appointment; what can I expect and what should I take with me? Being nervous about wedding dress shopping is normal; we hear it from our brides daily. Clients worry a lot about what styles to pick, their budget, what their family will think and body image. We always encourage brides to come in with an open mind and only bring a small, intimate group of people you trust. They’ll think you look perfect no matter what. At Enchanted Bridal Boutique, we pride ourselves on truly wanting to match brides with their perfect dress. One they feel and look absolutely stunning in and can’t wait to wear. There’s no need for added stress, so we say arrive safely and let’s get the journey started. There’s no need to bring anything with you as we have everything needed. Melanie Rich | Enchanted Bridal Boutique www.enchantedbridalboutique.co.uk FLUTTERING LASHES I’d love to wear false eyelashes on my wedding day to really make my eyes stand out, but I’ve never managed to successfully apply a set. Do you have any tips? Lashes are usually included if you’ve booked a professional makeup artist for your wedding day. The supplier will have a selection for you to choose from and will help you select the perfect ones to suit your eye shape and make-up style. Lash extensions can be a great option, especially if you’re going away on a honeymoon after your big day. But if you’d rather not commit to the cost and maintenance, strip lashes are the perfect alternative. There are so many styles in the market now from supernatural options to ones full of volume and something in between. But these can be tricky to apply, and the glue can be messy and uncomfortable. If you’re doing your own make-up on your wedding day and are not confident in applying your lashes, there’s now a clever new alternative – magnetic strip lashes. Rather than a traditional lash glue, these new lashes come with a magnetic eyeliner that somehow secures the false lashes to your lash line. You can buy these on the high street, and they come in various styles. Michelle Perkins | Make-up Artistry London www.makeupartistrylondon.com LOOKING YOUR BEST
