Let's See Your Before & Afters!
Carly, on November 2, 2023 at 12:18 PM

It's awesome seeing how makeup can enhance a wedding look! Did you get before and after shots taken? I'm not super sure if it comes standard or not but it's always cool to see and compare!

Botox plus other self enhancements
Jill, on May 14, 2019 at 10:06 PM

Has anyone gotten a boob job or Botox before their wedding? I’m considering larger breast, Botox and veneers. Not sure if I should do it. If I do how close to the wedding for everything.

Best makeup to cover acne scars
Rachel, on April 23, 2021 at 12:30 PM
