Quick Bridal Skin Care Dos & Don'ts...

Since it's bridal season, I've been working with a lot of brides.
I find that a lot of brides don't know that a skin care regimen is pertinent to looking flawless on their special day...there's a limit to what make-up can accomplish with skin that's "texture-challenged".
Here are a few tips that I got from BeautyTipsHub, http://www.beautytipshub.com/bridal-tips/skin-care.html ...check it out!

Do's:
Maintain a healthy food habit at regular intervals
Follow a diet full of vitamins and nutrients.
Take ample rest and get proper sleep
Cleanse and massage your skin regularly
Seek professional help before applying makeup
Include yoga, exercise, and other physical activities as part of your health regimen
Dont's:
Avoid junk food, processed foods, caffeine consumption and foods high in calories
Avoid trying new cosmetics and makeup
Avoid stress and anxiety
Stay happy and smile a lot!

Here's a lovely bride that adhered to these tips:

Gorgeous!

Model on the rise!

Let me introduce you to a new and upcoming model, Elizabeth...She is remarkable! Okay, maybe she doesn't think so, but I believe that she is a talented model! She volunteered to help me out with this shoot. Thanks Elizabeth.
These are a (very) few of her shots...

This make-up is inspired by the 1950s era of Marilyn Monroe!
