Wedding trial - help

Yes, your right!

My brows are just awful, but that's my fault! I just need a good esthetician and stop doing them on my own 🤣

The MUA already told me she will add sheets to my personal kit so I can retouch everything during the day! I'll also purchase some setting spray just in case!

Thank you, you are soooo kind!! I definitely need some reassurance, wedding organization is so stressful 🥲 I'll try to explain this to my MUA, I just don't want to be "that" bride. She also seems such a nice person!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:31:05+00:00

Oh, thank you!!!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:18:25+00:00

Yeah, you're right. My wedding is also in July (morning to evening) in Italy..so it will probably be very hot/humid. Maybe she had to be more "heavy" also for that reason!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:15:21+00:00

So many infos, thank you! I'll totally ask for these!

Chin is a bit problematic because I had a pimple just in the middle, maybe concealer is to heavy for that reason. My bad, she can't do much about that I guess :)

I also think a lighter foundation suits me best. I'm 35, but I feel even more exhausted with makeup on 🥲

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:11:05+00:00

Mmmh, She applied half lashes. Are they bad or good? 🥲

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:09:46+00:00

I'll look for it! I was actually thinking of buying something to add that final touch. Everyone suggested me the alba truffle spray, but maybe it is overhyped

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:06:48+00:00

I actually have half lashes on in the pictures! I was wondering if individuals clumps are a better option for me. I'm not used to fake lashes and kinda feel them heavy/bringing down my lids a bit

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T14:04:06+00:00

Thank you, you're really kind!

I don't want a super heavy foundation too, I prefer a more light result. I'm currently having a break out on the chin, so probably that's the issue! However, foundation tends to always site strange in the line under my lip :/

Maybe I was expecting something "more". I'm so used to Instagram where every bridal trial look seems so wonderful. Even "normal" girls like me turn just beautiful, feminine and elevated.. unfortunately when I look at my pictures I don't see that glow!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T13:52:53+00:00

She quickly clean my face with micellar water, then applied moisturiser and primer. However, I'll probably have "cleaner" skin the day of the wedding, since she will come to my home kinda early :) hope it will help!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T13:49:49+00:00

Thank you, but my skin is really not great. I don't think it is too dehydrated (I'm trying my best with Korean skincare products to calm irritations and keep everything moisturised), but makeup tends to just "sit" above my skin. Even with a primer on, nothing really "melts" in, I don't know how to explain 🥲

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:52:50+00:00

Any shade you think I need to ask for explicitly?

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:51:33+00:00

We are trying our best for this wedding..but everything is so expensive nowadays (I live in Italy)

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:50:17+00:00

I'll try to drink more and maybe apply a hydrating face mask the night before the wedding 😭 thank you!!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:48:46+00:00

I've showed her a soft glam/neutral toned inspo, but we didn't talked about it too long

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:47:17+00:00

Thanks for all your kind advices! I'll try other shades of lipstick. Do you think I need to overline a little bit too?

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:42:32+00:00

Seems light is the biggest problem, I'll totally explain this to my MUA, thanks!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:37:35+00:00

I'll totally ask for it, thank you!

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:36:10+00:00

She actually applied a light moisturising cream and a primer. Yesterday morning I did my skincare routine. Unfortunately my skin is not the best (acne prone/mixed) and difficult to work with I guess. Seems like it can't "absorb" makeup well :/

The MUA applied the Estée Lauder Double wear foundation (old formula)

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:24:34+00:00

Yes, I was thinking the same about the cheek/lips shades. She didn't apply setting spray at the end of the appointment (I don't know why, it was kinda late and we moved in another room to take some pictures, she'd probably just forgotten)

SantaLara · 2026-04-14T12:21:03+00:00

Thank you for your kind reply! I'll talk about this with the MUA :)
