Celebrity makeup artist Krystal Dawn flew to the Maldives to get Billie Faiers wedding-ready in March, and gave the bride subtle shimmering skin on both her face and across her décolletage that worked perfectly for the sun-soaked setting. Her product of choice? Iconic London's Prep-Set-Glow, a hydrating mist with light-reflecting properties that can have multiple uses within your bridal beauty look – to prep the skin before applying makeup, set your finished look, or add a radiant gloss to bare skin.
