Beauty advice and what’s trending in the world of wedding fashion BLUSHING BRIDE How can I ensure my make-up stays fresh all day at my summer wedding? Meet the expert: Clare Bellman is the face behind the Berkshire-based Millie Makeup brand. She’s a professional hair and make-up artist based at her studio in Windsor and also offers lash lift treatments and brow lamination. Clare says: Summer is on its way which means only one thing, plenty of wedding invites - we hope! Crafting that perfect look needs gorgeous, glowing skin and ensuring that your chosen look lasts all day into the evening can be achieved with a few simple steps: •Good skincare is key - a few light layers of quality skincare products ensure that the skin is happy and hydrated and allows the make-up to sit perfectly. Your skin type will depend on which products you use but if you have oily skin, a primer will help on those targeted areas to ensure long-lasting coverage. •Achieving a summery glow comes from the use of serums and illuminating complexion products that can be mixed into your foundation of choice. •Blushes are trending, from doll blush to sunset blush and of course Barbie blush! They all add a pop of colour and are the look of the moment for brides and wedding guests this season. Try a cream blush to add sheen in pink or orange tones. Or, tap your lip colour into your cheek to tie in the shade! www.milliemakeupwindsor.com; www.facebook.com/ milliemakeupwindsor; www.instagram.com/milliemakeupwindsor Q&A aFndabsheaiounty OXFORDSHIRE-BASED DESIGNER KATIE LOXTON UNVEILS NEW LAUNCHES For stylish accessories, check out Katie Loxton’s recently launched jewellery collection, beautifully crafted personalised pouches with hidden sentiments, and bridal gift sets.
