I've been starting to think about my wedding makeup and I'm uncertain of what to do. I don't usually wear foundation if I do wear makeup - my skin is pretty good and I don't like the feeling of my skin being plastered with makeup.
I do realize that I probably should wear some sort of foundation, because of the wedding pictures and such. But is there anything light that won't make me feel uncomfortable? Or could I just go without?

I would would wear a little makeup. I think with a beautiful hairstyle, and gown, the face needs a little something for balance and polish. It doesnt mean you need to look totally different or artificial. I hate liquid foundations. I think these are the masky look you are refering to. I prefer an oil-free cream/gel base. My favorite,after 10 years of doing makeup, is the one from LOLA cosmetics, from sephora. It is a beautiful second skin like texture, that covers well, but looks like you have nothing on! It is available in a compact with two shades; one lighter and one darker. You can dab a little with a sponge, of both colors, to get the perfect match. Or, use the lighter one as a concealer, perfect under eyes, and use the darker one as your face color. They offer 7 shades, ranging from porcelain pale to rich ebony. Top it with a little loose powder, and it will last all day! : ) Michelle Larner, Professional NYC Makeup Artist http://www.weddingmakeupbymichelle.com
