Getting ready for the happiest day of your life usually takes hours, which would lead you to think that all the makeup and that gorgeous hairstyle will be flawless all day long. However, with all the walking, dancing, sweating, or maybe standing in the wind if the weather gets colder, your hair, makeup and your wedding attire may go through a few changes that will need an immediate fix. That’s precisely why you should have a bride’s beauty and fashion emergency kit with a few necessities put together to help you with those small crises.

Purse Mirror

You’ll want to look your best during the entire wedding day, but if a few tears of joy fall down your cheeks here and there, you’ll need to know whether they made a big or small damage to your makeup. That’s why you should have a compact purse mirror with you at all times, so you can quickly check if you need to go to the ladies’ room and do a few touch-ups before anyone takes a photo of you with the mascara smudged on your lower eyelids.

Spare Makeup

As we mentioned, makeup mishaps are likely to happen on your big day, whether due to happy tears or because of too much heat, but you’ll definitely need to fix your maquillage a few times. That’s why you should bring a lipstick, or a lip gloss with you, along with mascara, eyelash glue, and eyeliner. If you don’t want to think about lipstick touch-ups, go with a long-lasting matte finish, and you’ll be able to eat, drink and kiss your new hubby without having to make more than maybe one touch-up for the entire day.

Extra Outfit

After an entire day in your wedding gown and heels, you’ll certainly need something to wear when the big day is almost over, so make sure you have an extra outfit on your hands as well. Get a trendy blouse and have some backup jeans instead of yet another dress. A pair of flat sandals or ballerinas will feel amazing after long hours in heels, so don’t forget about those either.

Blotting Papers

No matter how high-quality your makeup is, you’re going to see some of the sebum coming out of your pores at some point. Whether you notice your T-zone is oily or the area around your nose and cheeks started to shine too much, bring a pack of blotting papers so you can easily get that matte look again. They’ll quickly absorb all the excess of oil from your skin, without removing any makeup, leaving your maquillage flawless as the minute it was done.

Hair Fix-Ups

You’ll want your hairstyle to be on point all day, and sometimes that’s simply unmanageable. That’s where hairstyle fix-ups come in. Your beauty and fashion emergency kit should also have bobby pins, a comb or a brush, hair ties, and hairspray. If you don’t think your hair will remain shiny and clean until night, throw in a travel size dry shampoo, so you can spray a little on your hair, and refresh it any time you need.

Final Thoughts

You deserve to look your best on the happiest day of your life, so make sure you have a few tricks up your sleeve to help you look stunning for hours, despite all the possible impacts. Don’t let your hairstyle get all messed up, or your make-up smeared and unsightly, but put together a small beauty and fashion emergency kit, so you can act quickly and effectively at any moment. If you don’t think you’ll remember to pack all the little necessities, feel free to ask your maid of honor or bridesmaids to look after the little kit and you’ll have a lovely carefree wedding.
