Every Wedding Beauty Essential To Keep On Hand During The Big Day

An obvious one, sure, but it’s worth the reminder to keep your complexion shine-free. Pack this hard-working powder foundation in your bag to instantly minimise unwanted shine and refresh a fatigued face throughout a long day.

Pre-wedding jitters left you with a few dark circles or blemishes to contend with? Keep your bridal makeup in place by investing in a concealer that can do double duty as both an under-eye brightener and camouflage blemishes or redness to save precious space in your clutch.

A fragrance is often considered the most sentimental element of wedding day beauty, but you’ll want to ensure that your chosen scent lasts long beyond a walk down the aisle. A few quick spritzes of this romantic fragrance in a handy travel-size will instantly reignite those special scent memories and remain a treasured keepsake long after the wedding night.

You never know when you’re going to need a hair tie until the exact moment that you realise you forgot to pack one. Add an emergency silk hair fastener to your bag to ensure that your hair can quickly and easily be secured if needed without leaving behind any telltale kinks or snags.

If you’ve chosen a spring or summer wedding, chances are you’ll be dealing with a little humidity – which can be disastrous for eye makeup that’s prone to transfer. Opt for a flake-free formula that can revive and redefine your lashes throughout the day without creating clumps or smudges.

With all that kissing for the camera, your lipstick will likely need some touch-ups throughout the day. Choose a luxe, easy-to-apply formula, such as this creamy satin-finish lipstick, that will keep your pout hydrated and perfected without transferring or fading.

It’s unlikely that your nails will chip on your big day, but it’s also better to be safe than sorry. Pack a neutral nail polish that can easily hide any sudden manicure mistakes, such as this quick-drying, soft-finish lacquer.

Greet your guests with soft hands all day by touching up with hand cream. This lightweight formula leaves a lingering floral scent while also moisturising your skin, replenishing hydration without creating a greasy film on the hands that could compromise your attire.
