Ok, you said you found someone who can "do" your makeup. What you need to do is go on the the Cover Girl website and set up a virtual model that best matches you. Play with the colors yourself and when you find the look,print it out and have that person(as long as you trust them) duplicate the look. If worse came to worse, you can do your own, just practice a bit. I can tell you though, if you do it yourself and you want the least amount of "error", try the Almay I-Color line. It coordinates your eyecolor to the eye makeup and it works very well. Make sure your cheek color and lipstick color are of the same shade family. If you are fair, do not use black eyeliner, opt for soft black. You can substitute on the I-Color line if you have hazel eyes(their eyeliner is black)Make sure your lip color and nail color are in the same shade family, unless you are doing a French, then it doesn't matter. You may want to use a long wearing lipcolor like the Cover Girl Outlast line. What bride has time to retouch their lipstick? Don't forget to use waterproof mascara. This may sound a little off the wall, but why not have a makeup party? You may stumble upon your look and have fun doing it, without the added stress. Good luck!

find a MaryKay consultant in you area and schedule a time to "play" with their make up and get different suggestions on colors and looks. you should be able to try whatever you want. go to www.marykay.com and use the consultant finder feature.
i'd love to do it but i'm in nebraska
