Corinna Cooke, the uber-talented makeup guru who leads a more- than- fabulous- life,  has scored big for you! Read on to find out how to get a great deal on the hottest thing to hit hair…

So you’ve worked out, got the cool bikini (or hiking boots!) your skin is looking gorgeous, you’ve packed the perfect makeup bag and you’re ready to head out on the vacation of a lifetime – your honeymoon.

Of all the trips you’ll take in your life, this is the one where you really want to look and feel your best. Which brings about the issue of the hairdo.

If you’re heading out to the islands, or maybe a beach getaway, or any vacation where you’ll be swimming, or changing climate from the dry desert air to something a little more humid, you need a plan so that you don’t wind up sporting an unmanageable ball of frizz on your head!

And preferably a plan that doesn’t involve you spending hours in your hotel room with buckets of goopy serum and a flat iron, trying to get back glossy, healthy looking hair to wear out to dinner with your brand new husband

The most exciting new trend in hair is the revolutionary Brazilian Blowout. (also known as the Keratin Treatment)

 

The Brazilian Blowout is a gorgeous long term treatment that puts keratin into the hair shaft and seals it there, defrizzing, smoothing and leaving you with silky, super shiny hair. You can wear your hair straight, or you can have your curls smoother and more defined. It also drastically cuts down the time you spend styling your hair, and the amount of product you have to use in order to get controllable and luscious looking locks. No wonder celebrities swear by it!

The Brazilian is a simple process that lasts approximately four months. The first week your hair is a little on the flat side, so ideally have it done a month or so before the wedding. If you’re a girl who colors, you’ll find your color lasts longer and has way more shine than ever.

You’ll sail through your wedding with perfect, glossy, healthy looking hair and head out on your honeymoon with the most manageable, gorgeous hair you’ve ever had!

Celebrity color specialist Heather Strange (Girls Next Door, Alyssa Milano) recently left her position as color and Brazilian expert at Jose Eber on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills and moved closer to family in Scottsdale. She brought the secret to the stars’ hair with her, and I have asked her to give a special discount to Phoenix Bride and Groom blog readers. If you mention this article you will get a whopping 20% discount on your Brazilian Blowout!

International make-up artist Corinna B.  is the girl to know. She leads a life of glamorous parties, celebrity pals and global jet-setting. She’s gorgeous, she knows how to make you gorgeous, and she’s a New Zealander. Pretty cool, right?

Recently, she divulged so many invaluable tips and bits of wisdom with us that we are writing a series for you, “The Destination Honeymoon Couple”.  Today, Corinna talks makeup!

When it comes to makeup there are so many options to choose from – it can be overwhelming. But there are seven simple steps to streamline what to pack and how to vary your look a little.

 1. Pare it all down! You only need a few key products. Keep your makeup story simple. Take one eyeshadow set, such as a neutral color palette, or for fun a plum palette, and then change it up with different colored eyeliners and lips.

2. Transfer foundation from its heavy bottle into plastic travel bottles or jars. Face Atelier sells sets of travel jars, ideal for foundation, concealer and lip glosses. Buy travel sized primers and powders.

 

3. Pack a slimlined blush and a bronzer so you can add a little color where and when you need it!

4. Change your look with different fun lipsticks and lip glosses. A soft pink, a hot pink and a tangerine give you plenty of options!                                                      

  

5. Makeup Forever Aqualiners are waterproof. Grab a couple of different colors for variety or to change up your look.

6. Buy a waterproof or water resistant mascara. Nars has a fabulous water resistant mascara that builds lovely long lashes without clumping or bulking.

7. The ultimate travel makeup product is Nars The Multiple Tint. These are super sheer buildable colors that can be used on cheeks, eyes and lips. For a mere whisper of color, or for bold fun color – you decide!                                

                                                                               

 Try the limited edition colors Cadaques (fuchsia) Beverly Hill (bright red) or Turks and Caicos (orange)

Pack your makeup into well structured beauty bags, such as the ML Traveler by Stephanie Johnson. (For more info on Stephanie Johnson travel accessories, click here!)

Look sexy, beautiful and totally lovely as you’re jetting off into the sunset on the honeymoon of your dreams with your brand new husband and GO HAVE FUN!
