Brides Today: What is your favourite foundation when it comes to bridal makeup?
Taniya Joseph: The Body Shop Matte Clay Skin Clarifying Foundation is my favourite because it gives full coverage, promotes clearer looking skin, is ideal for any skin type and its ultra-lightweight. This lightweight foundation is enriched with skin-clearing tea tree and leaves a breathable, yet full-coverage matte finish. It’s also resistant to water and sweat.

BT: How can we pick out a foundation closest to our skin tone?
TJ: The best way to pick out a foundation matching your skin tone is to test them by dabbing some swatches of foundation on your jawline. The skin at your jawline will be truer to your natural undertone and give you an idea of how the foundation will look against your neck. The right hue should disappear into your skin.
BT: What are 3 must-have beauty products that are always in your vanity bag when doing bridal makeup?
TJ: These are the products that never leave my beauty bag:
- Matte Clay Skin Clarifying Foundation: This is essential for creating a sweat-proof, full coverage look.
- Liquid Eyeliner: This liquid liner is easy to control gives you precise strokes. The fine felt-tipped applicator delivers colour exactly where you want it, it’s compact and easy to carry around in your bag.
- Matte Liquid Lipstick: It effortlessly glides on like a gloss and set with the rich creamy colour and velvety touch of matte lipstick. It’s long-lasting, lightweight and lusciously soft.

BT: What is your *expert trick* while creating bridal makeup looks that you would like to share with the readers?
TJ: A waterproof mascara is a must on your wedding day, but apply a mascara that isn't as a base first because these give all the fullness, volume, length and curl that a waterproof can't. Then layer your waterproof mascara on top to act as a raincoat to your mascara and have the best of both worlds. I love using Lash Sport Waterproof Mascara for brides because it’s splash-proof, volumises lengthens and lasts.
