Best setting spray for oily skin?

Makeup artist cost
Lauren, on January 13, 2019 at 2:04 AM

I am totally new to getting my makeup done by a professional and am looking at the pros/cons! Did you all do your own makeup or get it done? And if you got it done, what did it cost?

I’m currently looking for a makeup artist for the big day, but I didn’t think about whether I should go to the artist in their studio or have them come to me at the venue. Which option do you think is...

Washed out look- What about the groom?
Afterallthistime...Always, on March 30, 2019 at 2:43 PM

I always see recommendations on these forums to wear heavier makeup for the wedding so you don’t look washed out in photos. I never wear makeup, and when I do it’s just mascara. I plan to wear a...
