Night Before Wedding Skincare: What Your Makeup Artist Wants You to Do

The night before your wedding, skincare mistakes show up on camera. As a licensed bridal hair and makeup artist, I've seen what happens when brides use the wrong products 12 hours before their glam — and I've also seen the difference when they follow the right routine. This is exactly what I tell my brides to do the night before: the products, the order, and what to absolutely avoid. Your makeup artist will thank you, and your skin will photograph flawlessly.
