It seems the second that princess-cut diamond (or funky sapphire) is slipped on your finger you're expected to launch into full-force bridal mode. Well-meaning friends and family ask you about the date, venue, and, of course, the dress. To say it's overwhelming would be a huge understatement.

Nothing puts a damper on the whole "blushing bride" thing like melting makeup or over-contoured cheekbones. Your makeup is a central part of your entire bridal look. After all, this is going to be the most photographed day of your life. And if you've decided to do your own makeup -- whether as a way to save a buck or to ensure you really look like yourself -- you're likely feeling the pressure to get it right. You might feel compelled to try and execute something you've never done before.

Summer is the season of grand debuts. For some, that means showing off that bikini body you've worked your ass off to achieve. For others, it means pulling those sundresses, shorts and crop tops out of storage. But for us? It means we finally get to reveal the most sizzlin' summer nail colors (that complement the new strappy sandals we've been dying to wear).

I grew up on a steady diet of "Cinderella" and "Beauty and the Beast" played on repeat. (I even had my first crush on the Beast, which I won't even try to psychologically unpack here.) Chances are you have a similar Disney-movie-watching experience, and I'm willing to bet you had a favorite Disney princess because she just got you. Maybe you pretended to be on a magic carpet like Jasmine, or decided to take scissors to your hair like Mulan (true story).

We call them classic beauty products for a reason. They've been around for ages and have become staples in our makeup bags and bathroom cabinets. You know the classic beauty products we're talking about -- the ones your mother (or even grandmother) used that eventually (against your strongest will) became your favorites.
