8 STEPS TO HAVING THE BEST MAKEUP EVER
As a professional makeup artist and hairstylist based in Paris I serve a variety of clientele for Red Carpet, Fashion, and Luxury Weddings
Here are my tips to really set yourself up for looking your best when approaching a big event.
1. Skincare. At least one month in advance, start loading up on key skin and hair vitamins like Collagen, Omega 3's and 1000mg of biotin per day.

2. Exfoliation. Begin with a regimen that includes, retinols, glycolics or alpha hydroxy acids. Also, add in a intense moisturizer with hyaluronic acid.
3. Diet. Reduce sugar and alcohol, as well as bread and grains. Up your intake of leafy greens, fruits and vegetables. Most importantly, drink lots of water!!!
4. Exercise. Get one hour of cardiovascular excerise daily.
5. Stress. Try to fit in 10 to 15 minutes of guided meditation 5 days a week. YouTube has plenty of options for guided meditation specific to stress.
6. Brows. One week before the big day, I highly recommend having your eyebrows shaped or waxed by a familiar professional. I do not advise using someone you have never used before.
7. Cleanse. The night before your big day, take a creamy cleanser and wash your face with a wet and warm wash cloth. Be sure to rub hard enough to gently remove all of the dead skin on the surface of the face.

8. Be present. Allow the little things that don't go perfectly to roll off your shoulders. Savor each passing moment as this will be by far one of the best days of your life.
I wish you only the very best for your most special day!
Best wishes,
