Colors:
Do go in for a prior consultation with your beautician at least a week before the wedding. Take along your wedding outfit and samples of the jewelry you would be wearing.
Another good idea is to take along reference of looks from magazines and ads of the kind you like, so that the beautician is not working blind towards creating your look.

Lips:
Your lips are an important part of the look, as important as the eyes. Line your lips with a lip-liner – a shade darker than the lipstick you've chosen and then fill in the lipstick with a brush. Blot it gently with a tissue and powder with pressed powder and repeat the liner and lipstick routine. This will help your lipsticks last longer.

Don't wait for the last minute. You don't want to appear for your wedding with a swollen face and cotton between your pearly whites, do you ?
These, as they say are the pennies. Take care, and the pounds – creating the right impressions that is – will take care of themselves.

For more intricate designs, for both the hands and the feet, the charges can go up to as high as Rs. 1000. And even for that, one might have to go all the way up to the parlour.
