Make up for an Ibiza wedding... I need your help please

[cuppateamum]

I'm usually totally bare faced, but used to love make up... 3 kids over 14 years has put paid to any regular make up use (priority = 10 minutes more in bed!)

Getting married in Ibiza this august, it will be HOT. I want natural looking make up and think really I'll need it to look my best in the photos. Think I'll need a primer and sheer-ish base of some sort. Sunscreen in one of those. A mascara that won't run or smudge. Lipstick just a shade off lips, or a kind of lip stain?? What else I don't know... all suggestions welcome.

Whatever I use needs to last all day and not end up on the dress. Recommendations please! TIA

Will you be there a few days before the wedding? You might be more tanned (don't get burned ) so you might need less make-up than you think/

My DD is having LVL (perm+tint lashes) before we go on holiday (she's not getting married but she does like a full make-up )

Get your brows threaded and dyed maybe?

Yes lash tint and brows definitely planned, also many bottles of high spf sunscreen... Tan lines and a backless wedding dress = not good!

You’ll need a setting spray in the heat - I would recommend the Urban Decay All Nighter!

Setting spray...had never even heard of it, it sounds like a miracle product! Thanks Clandestine that's just the sort of info I need think I will be purchasing that. I'd been thinking must buy long lasting make up but maybe I can trial that with what I've already got before spending £££'s

Would it be easier and cheaper to get a make up artist in Ibiza to do your wedding make up? Rather than buy a whole load of new products?

Fog good point and maybe, but make up artist is IRO €200 so would have to buy a lot. And this is a nice excuse to get back into make up and buy some new stuff

Clarins have a nice lipstain/tint in at the moment. In fact most counters have a holiday range.
Maybe a bb cream instead of foundation and a cheek stain under a bit of powder blush for staying power?

Try Laura Geller Balance and Glow I use this all the time over the ordinary serum foundation and on holiday on its own, also try tubing mascara, and burts bees lip balm they do one with colour.

Thank you all, trip to the shops planned so I'll check out your recommendations Much appreciated
