Makeup Artists Reveal: One Lipstick Shade Every Bride Should Own!

So yes, your MUA will come loaded with her own ammo, but we think every bride should own a couple of awesome lipsticks on her own as well- after all, it just doesn't end at the wedding or the reception. It's always handy to have your own lippie to touch up, and yes, you will be a bride for a while after the wedding as well- meeting and greeting people, so it's always great to have a long-staying lipstick of your own which doesn't need to be touched up time and again.
