THREE TIPS TO BEAT THE HEAT ON YOUR WEDDING DAY

On my wedding day, it was sunny and 73, and we were sweating! Although I use sweat-proof, transfer-resistant, and water-proof makeup, it is important to be prepared!

1. HAND-HELD FANS

I recommend purchasing hand-held fans for your bridal party. I sweat a ton on my upper lip and brows, and the best way to remove sweat when you're in full-glam is to air-dry it. If you touch your makeup while actively sweating or crying, it can damage your makeup. I recommend using a fan to air dry your sweat or tears, then after the sweat is dry, you can touch up if needed.

Even if you're getting married in the winter, I still recommend brides have at least one fan on-hand. You never know when you'll break into a sweat!

On my wedding day, I started profusely sweating when getting in my dress. It must of been the nerves! No joke - my bridal party, ladies and gents, were scavenging for these fans. They will be a big hit in your group!

2. SWEAT RAGS

If the gentlemen in your group are wearing jackets, they will be sweating. The suits have many layers to them and it gets toasty quick. As the bride, you don't want to see sweat in your formal photos! I purchased these sweat rags on Amazon and they were thoroughly used.

3. TOUCH-UP KIT

For long-days, I recommend everyone in full glam be prepared with a makeup touch-up kit. Typically, touch-ups would include: a powder (either translucent loose or a foundation powder), oil absorbing sheets, and a lip product. You may want to throw in some tools such as q-tips, tissues, and makeup brushes. Most of the time, touch-ups are not necessary, but I always air on the side of being prepared!
