The 2021 Beauty Trends You Need To Know About
What are the biggest beauty trends in 2021? There are quite a few of them. In this post, I am going to highlight 3 of my favorite beauty trends for the upcoming year.
The Biggest Beauty Trends in 2021
2020 is over! Thank Goodness! While we are still managing to get through a pandemic, the turn of a new year always brings about feelings of hope and inspiration for brighter days. It also means a change in what’s trending, especially in the beauty world. As I always say, trends are best used as an opportunity to change up your daily routine and try something new. Please remember that trends are not one size fits all. And the great thing about trying something new in the realm of beauty is that it’s usually not permanent. You can wash it off and try again.
“Ditch your heavy foundations and powders for a tinted moisturizer!”
In this post, I am going to highlight 3 of my favorite beauty trends for 2021! You can also see my talk about some of the products on Channel 5 KSTP, Twin Cities Live.
Fresh Skin
Fresh skin is in! 2021 is the year of more skincare, less makeup for your daily look. And now is the perfect time to work on that Glow Up! The following products are some of my current favs for fresh, healthy skin.
Daily collagen is a must and a game-changer for skin health. Collagen helps skin hydration by increasing hyaluronic acid production, helping hold water within the skin. Which leads to improved skin elasticity and diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. While our bodies produce collagen naturally, its production decreases as we age. So, it’s important to supplement collagen to maintain your skin's health. Just like you would with a daily vitamin. I have been loving the Collagen Elixir from Isagenix lately! It’s literally Glow Up in a bottle. I could spend this entire post raving about this product. It comes in a convenient “shot sized” packaging. Easy for when we start traveling again! Bonus, this baby has vitamin c and zinc in it as well! Who doesn’t love beauty health with some immune-boosting benefits too?
Use a hydrating face mask a couple of times per week like Honey + Lavender Radiance Face Mask from Naptime Aromatherapy in White Bear Lake. Apply a thin layer and let soak in for 20 mins, rinse with warm water. Repeat weekly as needed for radiant skin.
A good vitamin C serum is a must-have in maintaining healthy glowing skin. I love the All Bright C Serum from BeautyCounter. Apply 1 pump to clean skin in the morning as the first step for your skip prep.
Ditch your heavy foundation, powders, and contouring for a tinted moisturizer with SPF. My current fav is Dew Skin from BeautyCounter. I love this one because it is the perfect amount of hydration and protects your skin from the sun. Remember, sun care is important even in the winter!
Finally, just a touch of concealer under your eyes and on your eyelids to even out any dark circle or discoloration. This will help to brighten your eyes and be your final touch for a healthy glowing look. Try Skin Twin Creamy Concealer from BeautyCounter.

Smoldering Eyes
Smoldering eyes are back and here to stay. Especially with wearing masks daily. Playing up your eyes is a fun way to let your personality shine through! Here’s how to create the look:
I always find it fun to incorporate the Pantone color of the year into my makeup routine. To do this with your eyes apply a few sweeps of any grey eyeshadow using a fluffy shadow brush. I like Evening Grey from MAC applied with their 217 brush.
Complete the look by lining both your upper and lower waterlines with a black pencil liner. I love this one from Kryolan.
Sky High Lashes!
Sky High Lashes are a huge trend this year! Lashes are one of my favorite features. If I were trapped on an island Mascara would be one of the things I’d want to have with me! My latest favorite is from Ilia which is another great clean beauty brand. I’ve searched for a long time to find a clean mascara that actually works and this one is by far the best! Give your lashes a gentle curl, then sweep on the mascara for sky-high lashes.

2020 Spring/Summer Makeup Trends To Consider During Quarantine
Trends aren't for everyone but they are definitely fun to try out. This spring and summer you will notice the common theme of minimal makeup, dewy bronzed skin, monochromatic tones, and a pop of glitter for fun. So consider these spring/summer makeup trends while living in quarantine.
Spring is here! This is one of my favorite times of the year. The snow is melting, the birds are singing and the tulips are beginning to pop through the soil. And though we are currently in this uncertain time of COVID-19 quarantine, this means it’s time to think about changing up your makeup routine and products! I’m truly excited for the 2020 spring/summer season.
“Ditch your neutral shades and dare to give your look a pop of color!”
As I often say, trends aren't for everyone but they are definitely fun to try out. This spring and summer you will notice the common theme of colorful eyeshadow, pops of glitter, lots of blush, dewy skin and stained lips.
Colorful Eyeshadow
This season, step outside the box of your usual neutral tones and dare to try some color! Start off on the lighter side and work your way to getting bolder the more comfortable you get! I love to use the Romantic Palette from Beauty Counter. It’s really versatile, allowing you to create an array of different colorful looks!

All that Glitters
Glitter has made a big comeback in recent years and 2020 is no exception! Summer is a great time to add a little glimmer to your look. I’m loving the idea of using glitter as an inner eye highlight or on the tops of your cheekbones. Play around with it! Images courtesy of Pinterest and Harper’s Bazaar.
Pro Tip: find a glitter specific primer to help reduce fall out and use biodegradable glitter when possible.
Blush, blush and more blush!
Let’s be honest, coming out of winter our skin could use a little extra color. Am I right? I am loving that blush is a predominant product in this year’s summer trend. My go-to for this season is Melon from BeautyCounter. Don’t be afraid to apply a little more than you normally would, pile it on sister!
Pro Tip: blend your blush out with a CLEAN blush brush for a flawless, effortless appearance.
Dewy skin is still in!
This is trend that is never going to go out of style - in my opinion any way! There are a few tricks to achieving a dewy skin look. It first starts with your skincare routine. One of my favorite products is Dew Skin from BeautyCounter. I love it because you get a light, dewy coverage with SPF protection as well. It’s just the right amount of moisture.
Pro Tip: for some extra “dewiness” apply your favorite skin oil first, let it set for a minute or two the apply Dew Skin on top.
Dew Skin
“Sheer coverage, super-charged with SPF protection”
Stained, glossy lips.
I am loving the effortless “just bitten” glossy lip looks this season! Perhaps the thing I love the most about it is that it’s a very easy look to achieve. Just sweep on your favorite gloss and you are ready to go! If you’re typically a nude lip gloss gal, I’d encourage you to try one with a bit more color like Bright Pink from BeautyCounter. You can also easily gloss up your favorite matte lipstick by applying a clear gloss on top.

2019 Makeup Trends
Keep an open mind and know that trends aren’t for everyone. I’m a huge proponent to taking something mainstream and making it your own, so as you read through these trends think about fun ways to incorporate them that is authentic to who YOU are.
Makeup Trends for 2019
Happy 2019! I am so excited to share some of my favorite makeup trends that you’ll be seeing a lot of this year.
“When this year’s Pantone color of the year was announced I was really excited as coral is a great way to give yourself a fresh pick me up!”
Before we dive in, I encourage you to keep an open mind and know that trends aren’t for everyone. I’m a huge proponent to taking something mainstream and making it your own, so as you read through these trends think about fun ways to incorporate them that are authentic to who YOU are. This year you will notice the common theme of pops of color, some fun with glitter and neutral tones on the eyes. So let's do this! But first, follow me on Facebook for my live tutorials and product reviews.
The Power Lip
For me, nothing turns my day around or puts me into state quite like a power lip! One of my ultimate favs to rock is Nevermore from Elixery. If you’re new to a bold lip and feel intimidated… try sheering out the color with some clear gloss to make it a bit more translucent and less of a pow when you’re getting a feel for what works for you with this look. Another tip … when rocking a power lip the intention is that our lips are the statement piece, honor that by making the rest of your makeup more subdued.
Power Lip!
Bring out your inner boss babe in 2019!
Pantone Color of the Year: Living Coral.
When this year’s Pantone color of the year was announced I was really excited as coral is a great way to give yourself a fresh pick me up! I’ve found the easiest way to do this is to pop some coral onto the lips and cheeks. My favorite product is Ingenue lipstick from Elixery Cosmetics in Minneapolis. It’s the perfect coral shade for most skin tones and bonus…it doubles as a cheek stain! Who doesn’t love that? If your’e feeling a little extra, find your favorite coral shadow and pop some on your lids too! Tip: if you’re new to using a lipstick as a cheek stain start by putting a little on your finger tips and patting it onto the apples of your cheeks. Then blend blend blend. A little goes a long way.
All. The. Glitter.
I know what you’re thinking…”glitter? really?”. Yes, really! Glitter is a super fun way to add a little pop of glam to your look. It can get out of hand so that’s why I recommend practicing in a controlled environment preferably away from fans and small children…haha I’m kidding. But really, glitter can get crazy so I do recommend the Statement Palette from Beauty Counter. This is an awesome palette that has a mixture of matte and shimmer shadows, but it also has an awesome glitter shadow that is pretty much fool proof.
Tip: Sweep a little of Beauty Counter’s Crown on your lids alone for a fun glitter look that’s appropriate for the office or anywhere you plan to be!
No Makeup, Makeup
This trend has been gaining popularity for the last couple of years and 2019 will be no exception. I personally love this look for everything, it lets the world see the true beauty that you are! My favorite 3 products to create this look are:
Tint Skin from Beauty Counter
Volumizing Mascara from Beauty Counter
Collagen Lip Boost from Skin Savvy (bonus, it has SPF 30!)
Beautiful You
Showcase your natural beauty!
Taupe Smokey Eyes.
You’ll be seeing a lot of neutral tones on the eyes in 2019. My favorite is this new take on an oldie but goodie, the smokey eye. Typically a smokey eye includes tones of greys, charcoals and black, but this year we are seeing taupe as the the smokey element to this look. I personally feel this makes a smokey eye look way more versatile because neutral taupe tones are a lot softer and can be worn at work but also works for night on the town. You can keep the smoke nice and light or deepen it for a more dramatic effect as well. To perfect this look I love the Classic Palette from Beauty Counter.

Top 8 Nail Trends of 2017 Weddings
At a wedding, the focus is on the newlyweds, the complete future wife image, and your selection of dress to choice nails is especially evaluated. Trends can help you look on top even during such critical moments. It is important that you know all the subtleties that go into wedding nails in 2017.
Wedding Day Nail Trends
At a wedding, the focus is on the newlyweds, the complete future wife image, and your selection of dress to choice nails is especially evaluated. Trends can help you look on top even during such critical moments. It is important that you know all the subtleties that go into wedding nails in 2017.
“It is important that you know all the subtleties that go into wedding nails in 2017.”
The wedding involves a creative approach to nail art, using drawings, rhinestones, and paintings. The year 2017 is especially relevant to fashion and art during the all-important event where grooming the newlywed’s hands demand dexterity. If you are lacking in vision or just need to find out more about bridal nail trends, check out this list of eight best bridal nail trends that can also serve as a gift through services like Target Wedding Registry.
The Jeweled Embellishment
Nothing is more beautiful than that special moment when your husband slips that ring onto your finger. The ring is a symbol of eternal connection that should be offered the greatest honor. One way of honoring the ring is through adding special jeweled embellishments on the ring finger – and the extra adornment hints at the finger’s special job and significance in your life.
Embellishments are all the rage; the trend features a basic manicure in a single color like nail polish by Pink Gellac and special embellishments just on the ring finger. Not only is the trend gaining momentum in Miami and New York, but it is also a popular choice for women of every age.
Floral Elements
Maybe, your wedding is to take place outside, in a large church, or a beach. No matter your wedding’s venue, there will always be flowers around you. In most cases, flowers are incorporated into the veil, dress, décor, and bouquet; but this year, consider incorporating floral elements into your nail design.
If you love experimenting with your nails, then bright florals may be just what you want. The cute flowers will brighten up your beautiful attire as well as your bridal makeup. However, creating the look does require a steady hand and some good amount of practice – so, it can be challenging for your non-dominant hand.
Ombre Nails
Originally a hair color trend for many years, ombre has slowly worked itself into wedding nails. Like the hair craze, ombre nails are about creating a color gradient where a lighter color gradually blends into a darker one. Moreover, just like hair, finding the perfect ombre nail balance takes practice.
The process starts with prepping the nails with a base coat and picking three shades of the same color. Paint the lightest shade on the entire nail and use a makeup sponge dipped in the darkest color to paint from the tip of the nail down to about a third of the way. Sponge the shade that is between the other two to the middle of the nail, blending both colors together, and complete by applying a coat to smooth.
Crystalline Glitter
Another popular bridal phenomenon is the gorgeous crystal encrusted glitter nails. Highlighting your nails this way adds a special glamour and glitz to many different types of bridal traditions. This nail art also works at the reception just as it does during the main ceremony – imagine the sparkle when you lift your hand and your partner places the ring on your finger.
French Tip Manicure
Back in the 90s, French manicures were the rage, but fast forward to 2017 and they have made a comeback with a new look. Apart from changing the tip color, to making it look extremely edgy and adding a fun design, french manicures will have you shine as you stand at the altar. After all, weddings are about tradition and this wedding nail trend is the perfect way to embrace the best parts of your past and heritage while creating a new path into the future.
Nail Lace Cuff Effect
Delicate as lace, these gorgeous nails mimic the intricate lace designs that grace the cuff of bridal gowns. The lacework cuff effect embellishment is a popular bridal nail trend in 2017. You have the option of choosing this type of embellishment for every finger or make a subtle statement and only decorate a few.
Henna-Like Nail Embellishments
Inspired by the ancient cultures in Egypt and India, intricate henna patterns were originally painted on the skin, but they can also be reimagined on your nails. However, did you know that this form of nail art has been around for more than 7,000 years? These lovely nails will also look great on henna-covered hands or as part of the subtle decoration for brides from any cultural background.
Negative Space
The thing about this 2017 nail trend is that it involves letting your natural nail show through as is. However, the negative space nail trend means that your fingernails’ middle part is nude, decorating the tips or sides of the nails. The best look for you would be vertical or horizontal lines.
Tips to keep you relaxed on your wedding morning
Staying focused and relaxed on your wedding day is critical to making your big day succeed. Here are tips to assist you
Top Tips for a Relaxed Wedding Morning
Insights on must-do things on your wedding day morning are critical for the success of such and auspicious occasion. The reason is that the wedding day is one of the most important events in the life of any human being who believes in the sanctity and dignity of marriage. Additionally, the morning of that day can cause many unexpected challenges that can disrupt or even cancel the wedding day.
“At the very least, hand your phone to your maid of honor or a trusted friend and put them in charge of communication and basic decision making. ”
Here, many brides have different thoughts confronting them with “what ifs?”. Some of them worry about the possibility of the bridegroom showing up late while others about some misfortune befalling them or their bridegrooms. Whatever the reason, you can make deliberate efforts to remain relaxed so that you approach your wedding with a sober mind. In our post, we'll look at some top tips that will enable you to achieve this elusive calm.
Lay out your dress and accessories
Your wedding gown and beauty accessories are critical tools you will need to look “wow” on your joyous day. Therefore, lay them out so that your photographer does not disturb you to make hasty adjustments while taking those memorable photos of you as you leave your parents’ house.
Get to bed early
If you want to enjoy the morning of your marriage ceremony, get to sleep early and be in a relaxed mood on the eve of your wedding. The reason for this is that a good night's sleep will help in calming down your excitement and keep your mind relaxed all through the night as you count hours and minutes to say, “Yes I do.”
Getting good rest is not just for your wedding day. You may want to check out these top tips to get your beauty rest. The age-old idea of having a bachelor/bachelorette party the night before your wedding is bad news for you, your future spouse and your family. Stay focused and enjoy the biggest day of your life.
Spoil yourself
Another tip to help you remain relaxed on your auspicious day is spoiling yourself that morning. You can have a warm bath with oil, and if you want to take it a notch higher, you could add some soft flower petals.
Additionally, you can switch on your favorite music and light candles to create a soothing and romantic atmosphere. If you have challenges along the way that make your day look impossible, switch on your favorite soft music to give you that much-needed strength to go on. This way, you will focus your mind on the fact that the big day has finally arrived and you can celebrate every part of it without worrying about what lies outside the doors of your parents’ house or your single home.
Eat Well
Do you want to remain focused and relaxed on your wedding day? Then you need to pay attention to what you eat on that beautiful and memorable morning. You need to pamper yourself with your favorite breakfast to take you through to the last hour. You should also avoid meals that can make you feel bloated should your nerves get to you. For example, some scrambled eggs, fruit, coffee and water throughout the day would be a great choice. Fried foods and a 16 oz rare steak - not so much.
Get a quick workout
If you want to get your mind ready for the greatest day of your life, you have to take time in the early hours of the morning to do some basic workouts. Since a good workout is a proven way to release pressure and stress, you'll be able to approach the big hour calm, relaxed, and without jitters.
Go offline
Anyone living in this digital era knows just how destructive the phone and the social media can be. On this auspicious day, it would behoove you to switch off your phone and internet connection to avoid incoming messages and phone calls that can steal your joy and peace of mind on that day. At the very least, hand your phone to your maid of honor or a trusted friend and put them in charge of communication and basic decision making.
I can't stress this one enough.
Maintain order
If you want to avoid falling into unnecessary stress and jitters, you should remain organized up to the very last detail. It is necessary for you to place everything in its rightful place and condition so that when the morning comes, you do not stress yourself trying to find this or that item. If a disorderly situation arises, you can rest assured that you will get angry, distressed, and walk down the aisle in the wrong mood.
Surround yourself with loving and caring people
Last and most important, you should surround yourself with strong, loving, caring people on your wedding morning. Nothing will keep you strong like knowing you have people around you who have your best interests at heart. If your parents are available, you should take advantage of that limited window as they see their “child” or “baby girl” in their home for the last time as she becomes “Mrs.” Remember, the most important person in this equation is your future husband, who is excited to be your "rock", to calm you, and to give you as much as love as possible leading up to the last hour.
Remaining calm and sober on your wedding day morning is absolutely necessary for the success of your marriage ceremony. If you can take some care to implement these tips into your wedding morning preparation, you will have controlled almost everything that you can by yourself, leaving you strength and some piece of mind to deal with the unknown.

Essential Makeup Tips For Tweens
When I started wearing makeup, my mom took me to the makeup counter at Macy’s where a trained professional helped me build my first makeup bag with items that were fun and exciting for me to try, but that didn’t make me look like I was 25.
When I started wearing makeup, my mom took me to the makeup counter at Macy’s where a trained professional helped me build my first makeup bag with items that were fun and exciting for me to try, but that didn’t make me look like I was 25.
“Mascara is a staple item to keep in your makeup bag at all times.”
Fast forward to our world today…Instagram, YouTube and Pinterest have elevated society’s view of beauty and are infiltrating the mind of our youth. My goal is to give you some essential makeup tips for tweens to help them build their first makeup bag with great products that are fun and easy to use, and won’t make them look overdone.
A Cute Makeup Bag
This is the first essential item every gal needs. It's important to have a clean, dry place to store your makeup. This will help keep your makeup "clean" and also last longer if you store it somewhere dry. Humidity and heat are makeup's enemy as those environment are a breading ground for bacteria and also will speed up the expiration. There are many places you can find a cute makeup bag for your Tween, but Target is one of my favorites. They have a great selection and the prices are affordable as well.
A must have!
This is one of my personal favorites.
Mascara
Mascara is a staple item to keep in your makeup bag at all times. It's a quick, easy way to enhance your beauty. For Tweens, I like the Covergirl LashBlast Volume. It's an easy formula to work with and the silicone applicator makes it easy to apply for beginners. Bonus - The price point is palatable for parents.
- Pro Tip: to avoid clumps apply thin layers of the mascara at a time and build as you go.
Quality Brushes Are Key
The right tools for the job are an essential part of the success of your makeup application. One of my favorite brands is Sigma Beauty. They are SUPER high quality and the price point for what you get is not bad at all.
Pro Tip: Brush maintenance is super important. Plan on washing your brushes once per week. For a deep clean use Sigma’s brush shampoo and cleaning gadgets.
Bronzer!
Bronzer is another staple product I recommend having in your makeup bag at all times. A good quality bronzer should give you a sun-kissed glow - not make you look like an extra in Willy Wonka and The Chocolate Factory.
My favorite bronzer for Tweens and ladies of all ages is from Benefit Cosmetics. Hoola is the perfect shade for almost any gal and does not contain any shimmer, which in my opinion is key!
Pro Tip: use a fan-tail brush to apply to ensure you don’t get too much product in one place.
Beach in a Box!
Sweep on with a fan tail brush to get glowing in seconds.
Gloss it up
Finally, in our essential makeup tips for tweens, my favorite cosmetic item to round out a beginner's kit is a fun lipgloss. One of my favorites is Posie Balm from Benefit Cosmetics (I like Benefit if you can't already tell). It adds just a subtle pop of color and is both youthful and fun. This gloss also hydrates and conditions the lips leaving them soft. Benefit has a few other shades in this formula as well. Try them all!
The perfect pink gloss
Add a pop of color and a little shine.
Removal
Makeup removal is a key element! Did you know that for every night you do not take your makeup off you age your skin by 7 days?! Crazy!
I'm not a huge fan of use remover wipes night after night, I found that it's hard on my lashes and skin over time. My absolute favorite makeup remover is from One Love Organics. It's a little more spendy, but totally worth it and lasts a long time. Pump one pump into your hands, rub together then massage over you entire face and eyes. Your makeup will slide right off and it leaves your skin soft, without any oily residue left behind. This is a great product for Tweens and Adults!
- Pro Tip: Coconut oil is also a great makeup remover!
Remember, less is more! At the end of the day, I want makeup beginners to know that makeup should not define you. Makeup should be something that is fun and makes you feel great. It should not be something you need in order to feel relevant or beautiful. After all, what is on the inside is what counts. Cliché I know, but it's true. In a world filled with misinformation on what the definition of beauty is, I felt it was important to share some real tips on how to get started with makeup. I hope you enjoyed!

5 Things You Need to Know About Spray Tanning For Your Wedding
Not all sunless solutions are created equal. There is a big difference between an automatic spray booth and a handheld custom spray tan, so be choosy when deciding where to get your custom wedding glow.
Update October 2020!
Visit GoGlow Edina for your sunless tanning experience and receive 20% off your service. Just mention that you found them by way of WarPaint International. Applies to new customers only!
Wedding Day Spray Tan. Good Idea or Bad Idea?
Good idea. Sure you've heard the horror stories... But like anything in life (specifically in the personal services sector) there are options to cut corners, and then there are options to ensure a flawless and luxurious experience that provides beautiful results. So we've enlisted Ali Ericksen of goGlow to talk to us about the Top 5 things you need to know about getting a Sunless Tan for your wedding. But first, check out the CBS Local segment that featured goGlow's sunless tans on our Bridal models for "Get Movin' Monday: Top Spring Fashion Wedding Trends"
Automatic spray booth vs. Custom spray tan
There is a big difference between an automatic spray booth and a handheld custom spray tan. An automatic spray booth uses the same amount of solution and the same color solution regardless of the individual tanning. There is no way for the automatic machine to accurately follow the lines of your body for an even application. At goGLOW, every service is done by a highly trained and specialized professional. Each goGLOW is customized to the individual’s body, skin tone, and desired result.
In addition, not all sunless solutions are created equal. Low-grade solution found in automatic booths can contribute to an orange, streaky color. For natural looking results it is important to choose a provider who uses quality ingredients. At goGLOW, we carry only the highest-grade sunless solutions and products that are naturally derived with eco-certified DHA. They are paraben, sulfate, gluten and cruelty-free (as well as being vegan).
Don't look to social media
Be choosy when deciding where to get your custom wedding glow. First, take a look at a company’s Instagram and social media. They should be displaying pictures of real people and real brides representing their actual wedding day tan. Take a look at the color, evenness and tricky areas like hands and feet. Be wary of companies that filter images to alter the look of the tan. Check out reviews on Yelp and Google+.
Always talk to other brides and bridal shops, as it’s always nice to get a first-hand referral from a source you can trust. Lastly, look at the company’s accolades and seals of approval. goGLOW is the only sunless provider in MN that has received a 5-star rating in Allure Magazine, was listed as one of “the best spray tans from NYC to LA” and recognized with the coveted Allure “Best of Beauty Award”.
“Be choosy when deciding where to get your custom wedding glow”
Book a trial run before your wedding
Book a trial run before the big day. Like many other wedding day beauty services, you’ll want peace of mind knowing exactly what to expect come your wedding day. At goGLOW we have mastered The Bridal Glow while ensuring we are still providing our clients a custom, professional experience. In order to ensure that your custom color and wedding day goGLOW is flawless, we recommend booking a trial tan at least 3 weeks before the big day. At your trial tan appointment, we get to know you and your color preferences, while finding the perfect shade for your skin tone and type. We will also discuss your skin care routine and regimen to provide insight on how you can incorporate the most natural products available for healthier skin leading to a flawless wedding glow. Keep in mind it’s also a good idea to schedule your spray tan a day or two before your trial makeup sessions. This way your wedding day makeup artist can match your glowy skin tone to perfection!
Natural. Not orange!
Your wedding day glow should look natural. Trust us, the perfect wedding glow is only a shade or two darker than your natural skin tone. You don’t want to look like you just got back from your honeymoon on your wedding day! That dress will be much whiter than you had remembered...
Level the playing field
Your significant other and bridal party should join in too! You certainly don’t want to be the only one in photos rocking a healthy glow while the rest of your party looks washed out in your expensive wedding day photography. Or even worse, a dreaded orange hue. Getting the entire party together for spray tanning is not only a fun pre-wedding event but will ensure everyone has an even glow and radiates confidence for beautiful wedding photography.
