DON'T be scared to speak up
"If there is something you don't like or if the makeup is not making you feel like a million bucks, try to tell them why and what it is you're not loving," says Stromberg. "Do this at your trial consultation so expectations are communicated and set for the wedding day."

DO spend time finding the perfect look
"Spend some time before your big day to figure out what you like and don't like, and find out how those things look in pictures," adds Irwin. "It will make a big difference in the pictures you'll have for the rest of your life."

DON'T try any new skin care products
"Don't try anything new two weeks before the wedding," says celebrity makeup artist Mary Irwin. "Skin care can be tricky and the last thing you want is a reaction right before your big day."

DO relax the day before your wedding
"Stress leads to breakouts, which is the last thing any beautiful bride needs before her big day," says celebrity makeup artist Austen Parker. "If you haven't been to a quality spa, or have not gone in a while, consider having a spa day with your closest bridal party members one or two days before."
