Brenda Bola, a makeup and image specialist running Beauty for Brides and Colors for You, discusses wedding preparation and grooming. She advises that the correct order for preparations is hair, then makeup, and finally the dress, and suggests brides use fake tan over sunbeds to avoid accidents. Bola also shares tips for men, recommending braces for hired suits and noting that male skincare products are often packaged in black or navy to appear masculine.
