I need tips on how to highlight my eyes and how to get my makeup (especially eyeliner and foundation) to stay. Sometimes, I use Revlon Skinlights on my cheeks and eyelids, should I use it for the wedding or will it look dated in years to come? Also, I want a natural, enhanced look that'll work for photography.
Thanks!

Okay... You've sweated enough...
First, congratulations on your Wedding.
Use a "Long-lasting" formulation for your foundation and waterproof liners, (lip and eye). Most brands carry "Long-lasting" formulations.
Just make sure you moisturize and drink lots of water... You'll be dehydrated from the night before from your rehearsal and your bachelorette party.
To highlight your eyes, don't go heavy on your liner. There's a couple of
Threads here on neat "eyeliner tricks"... just gotta search the forum.
Curl your lashes and apply 2 coats of a waterproof volumizing mascara, perferably in black.
Yeah, I see nothing wrong with using
Revlon -
Skinlights as your colour choice. Just keep it Classic. Nothing trendy or stylized, - nothing dates a wedding picture faster than a trendy, stylized make-up application.
I would highly recommend hiring a Make-up Artist though. It's one less thing that you have to worry about, what, with all that stress around weddng planning an' all.
If not, you're on the right track with these tips.
Good Luck,
