Talented cake makers share their favourite bakes. As someone who has only worn make-up once for my own wedding a few years ago, my knowledge is definitely lacking, and, much to my friends amusement, I can’t tell you the difference between highlighter, foundation and concealer! Luckily, South Wales is full of some wonderful beauty experts who know all the tips and tricks to ensure you look your best on your big day. If you’re a bit clueless, like me, don’t panic. When looking for a make-up artist, make sure you read their reviews and that you like the look of their work. Most importantly, be honest with them. Whether you wear full glam on a regular basis, only add a touch of foundation, or, like myself, have no clue where to start, they are there to help you. A good supplier will reassure you and give suggestions to help you look like the best version of yourself. I highly recommend having a trial with your make-up artist before the wedding. Your trial will give you time to talk to your supplier, test out looks and ensure you’re happy with how you look before the wedding day. To help give you some ideas, we’ve rounded up fashion and beauty experts in the area and asked for their tips and trend predictions to ensure you look amazing. Happy planning!
