<\/div>

Your wedding day is likely to be an emotional one \u2013 with tears, laughter, and nervous sweats, so having a hair and makeup touch up kit on hand will keep you looking fresh and flawless all day long.<\/p>

If you\u2019ve chosen to have your hair and makeup look created by a professional, ask them about a touch up kit. Many artists offer these as part of their service meaning you have access to the exact shades and products used to create your unique bridal look.<\/p>

If you\u2019re planning on creating your bridal style yourself, or if a professional touch up kit is not an option, this helpful guide will make sure you\u2019re armed and ready to tackle any hair and makeup malfunctions you may encounter.<\/p>

As always, when searching for your hair and makeup artists, opt for businesses that employ sustainable and ethical practices, and stay local to the area in which your wedding will take place. Not only will this keep costs down for you but it will reduce your weddings carbon footprint. It\u2019s also worth noting that many beauty professionals are multi-talented meaning they can do both your hair and<\/em> makeup. Hooray!<\/p>

OK, first things first\u2026<\/p>

ASSIGN YOUR KIT KEEPER<\/strong><\/h2>

As the bride, you will need to have your hands free for your beautiful bouquet and heartfelt hugs, so in order to have your touch up kit available at a moment\u2019s notice entrust it\u2019s keeping to someone close to you. Ask your maid of honour, a bridesmaid or a close family member to take charge of this for you.<\/p>

TOUCH UP KIT ESSENTIALS<\/strong><\/h2>

1. Lip Stick<\/strong>
Whether you\u2019ve designed a signature colour especially for the day or you\u2019re using an off the shelf product, be sure to add this to your kit.

TIP –<\/strong> If you don\u2019t have the exact shade to match your original lip colour opt for a slightly darker shade for that day to night transition. Party mode, engage!

2. Powder<\/strong>
Helps to keep excess oils at bay, and makeup in place.

3. Powder Brush<\/strong>
To apply said powder.

4. Blotting Sheet<\/strong>
For warmer weather and oil prone skin.

5. Compact Mirror<\/strong>
Handy for that quick check to make sure you\u2019re looking your best.

6. Tissues or Handkerchief<\/strong>
For those happy tears and makeup smears.
They can also be used as an alternative to blotting sheets in a pinch.

7. Metal or Paper Straw<\/strong>
It\u2019s important to stay hydrated but you needn\u2019t ruin your lipstick in the process. Whip out your trusty reusable straw and get sipping!

8. Small Pot of Concealer\/Foundation<\/strong>
Smudges happen, especially when hugging large numbers of family and friends. Keep a small pot of your concealer or foundation handy for touch ups when needed.

TIP \u2013 <\/strong>Transfer your desired product to a small container and you\u2019re ready to go. Mini jam jars or used, empty makeup containers make great travel size makeup vessels!

9. Setting Spray<\/strong>
To refresh your skin and fix your makeup in place.

10. Hairspray<\/strong>
To keep your carefully curated hair style in check.

11. Bobby Pins<\/strong>
Hours of cavorting about the dance floor will test even the most secure of hair designs. Keep a few bobby pins in your kit as backup.<\/p>

<\/div>

NICE TO HAVE<\/strong><\/h2>

1. Lip Balm<\/strong>
To nourish lips beneath lipstick. It can also be used to alleviate dryness elsewhere.

2. Hand Cream<\/strong>
Keep your hands and nails healthy and hydrated with a sustainable, organic handcream.

3. Lash Glue<\/strong>
Properly applied lashes shouldn\u2019t budge but it\u2019s a good idea to be prepared just in case they do.

4. Eyeliner<\/strong>
If your makeup includes eyeliner, pop one in your touch up kit. A reapplication of eyeliner works wonders to refresh your look.

5. Eyebrow Pencil\/Powder<\/strong>
Just in case any smudging occurs.

6. Blush<\/strong>
Blush can fade throughout the day so a light touch up can revive your glow.<\/p>
