Tammy Yi has been in the beauty game for 10 years, so when it comes to a bridal beauty regimen, she’s got a few tricks up her sleeve to ensure her brides are simply glowing come their wedding day.
Pre-wedding Pampering Dos and Don’ts
- Treat your skin with care for the months leading up to your wedding – keep in mind that trying anything too drastic may cause an unwanted reaction.
- Don’t tan your face right before your wedding. Dry, peeling, red skin is a makeup artist’s worst nightmare. Your makeup artist should be able to give you the sun kissed look that you want.
- If you decide to get a facial with extractions or any sort of intense exfoliation, do so a couple of weeks before your wedding day. Give your skin some time to heal.
- Get your brow waxed at least a week in advance. The delicate skin around the brows after a fresh brow wax is does not adhere with makeup.

Working With Your Makeup Artist
- When you are searching for your a makeup artist, I highly recommend a trial before the big day. You want to be absolutely certain that you and your artist are on the same page and he or she knows exactly how you would like to look on your big day.
- Arrange with your artist to schedule yourself to be done with your makeup and hair closer to the time you need to be ready for photos. You do not want to be the first done out of your bridal party.

Long-lasting Beauty Tips
- You want to make sure you have the proper touch up products to make sure you look fresh throughout your wedding day. Make sure you have setting powder, lipstick, lip liner, lip gloss, and highlighting concealer pen.
- To make your blush last all day. Use a creme blush first and then set with a light blush to prolong the wear of your blush.
- If you would like your lip color to wear all day. Buy a lip stain to wear under your lipstick.
