What to Pack for Wedding Season

As the wedding season enters full swing, the pros at Industry Makeup Academy have some recommendations for what to pack in your pro kit.

Skin Prep and Set

First and foremost, we recommend skin prep that will provide long-lasting foundation coverage. Use oil control primers to keep foundation matte and sweat/tear resistant. Makeup setting sprays applied last will also seal the makeup so that it lasts all day and night. We love Skindinavia Makeup Setting Sprays - all the pros use them.

Falsies and Waterproof Mascara

In addition, we advise packing waterproof mascara and false eyelashes to give the eyes a dramatic effect. Bonus - they look great in pictures. Pack a few kinds - natural, wispy, and glam to suit your different clients. Blend the falsies into the client's real lashes to add extra lift. Our favorite lashes include Demi Wispies for a gorgeous cat eye look.

Touch Up Kits

Finally, we suggest packing a touch up kit. Items to include: blotting sheets, touch up lip color, your business card, and a mint. Your bride will have peace of mind knowing she can touch up her makeup into her reception.

By following these recommendations, you can be sure that your bride will be ready for her big day. Want to step up your Bridal Makeup Game?
