My mums hairdresser is doing hair for bridesmaids and I (wedding is near Mums house - 250 miles from home for me, so cant use my hairdresser) - we've had a practice, and I'm happy with what she did. Her daughter is a trained beautician/beauty therapist, but is not working as one. There has been talk of the daughter doing our makeup. I am not sure if I would be better off doing my own though? I'm sure she knows lots more about makeup than me, but am worried that she may not have the specific experience with wedding makeup (she is youngish - early 20s I think) - and I am really worried about ending up not looking 'like me' (or looking like a transvestitie if she piles it on ?). I am also thinking that as she is not actually working regularly as a beautician, we will probably having to use our own makeup anyway?
I am not massively confident with makeup - and don't wear it everyday (though do usually do mascara, and tend to do the whole lot once a week or so) ... should I trust myself to do my own ...? ? My sister (bridesmaid) really seems to think that we should ask hairdressers daughter to do us - and sister is great at makeup, so am a bit worried she is pushing for it because she is trying to save me from my own makeup skills! ?
