Make-up counters

My brother's wedding is coming up and since I am going to be in the wedding, I want my make-up to look good. The wedding is on the beach and I was thinking like a natural look but sunkissed like mischa barton/marissa cooper or summer on the OC. Which make-up counter should I go to, there are so many to choose from?

is there a sephora near you? sometimes the staff there is very helpful and they can draw makeup from alot of different lines. i honestly never feel satisfied from one line and makeup counters put alot of pressure for sales on unnec. products. i feel like sephora is alot less pressure since the staff there doesn't work on commission.

here are some products i would get:

Nars Orgasm blush and Laguna Bronzer $35


Smashbox waterproof eyeshadow $16


$25 Too Faced Beach Bunny kit.. seems good for traveling.

Waterproof eyeliner and mascara


Benefit She-laq $24

I found the perfect bronzey-orange (in a sunkissed way) lipgloss at Prescriptives. Sunburst 06. clinique has a good bronzer for the face too - it's the only one that doesn't make me break out. I don't know about the rest of them, though. Good luck and have fun at the wedding - it sounds really cool.

Just as an FYI, the day of the wedding, don't use a moisturizer with SPF. You won't glow as you should in the photos, you'll look muddy. So, just once don't wear sunscreen on the beach.

I really like Fresh Lip Shine in sari red with a light tan- it is a very sheer red that is extremely wearable.  It is one of my favorite lipglosses, and despite the $18 pricetag, I would buy it again.

for summer glow, i love to use my NARS mutiple.  i find myself using it everyday in the summer time.  i also dust a light bronzer all over my face and chest (if wearing a strappy tank or dress)

Stop by the Bobbi Brown counter!  I'm a make up artist for Bobbi and what you described is exactly our focus for summer, a sunkissed bronzy glow!
