Bridal Diaries - Emma and Joy
This is Emma- I did her hair and makeup today for her wedding. She was absolutely stunning!
Her father is in the second picture. Here are the details on her look:
Hair:
Fine with a wave. Blow out with a small about of mouse. Blow out crown first. Use 1 1/2" barrel all over and straighten bangs if needed. Tease all over crown. Make sure bangs are smooth and not in face too much. Pin up curls so that it looks like a full and thick messy bun. Make sure on the left side there are at least 3 pieces hanging (like in the image of drew) and on the right one small piece. Make it a bit messy and very voluminous. Think sweet but sexy Grecian. Pin the flower low in between the ear and pinned curls on the right side.
Makeup:
Skin: La Mer oil control on forehead and lotion on the rest. Bisque corrector and ivory/warm ivory concealer. A very light layer of beige natural finish all over then 2.5 foundation stick where she needs it. On forehead use dark bisque/bisque to correct darkness and beige/warm sand foundation stick on top. Pink sugar and pale pink on cheeks as well as rose shimmer brick on top. Nude shimmer brick all over.
Lips: Bobbi spf 15 lip balm, beige mixed with pink ballet, crystal gloss.
Eyes: equal parts saddle and grey in brows, ivory all over, goldstone on lower lid, shadow options pallete: pink on inner corners and neutral plum on outer corners, gold sparkle on inner corners. Black gel with slight wing tip smudged with charcoal, charcoal is also very slightly in the outer corners/crease. 6 medium length lashes and 2 short (to transition).
No smudge waterproof on top and a very light coat of mascara underneath.
After Emma's Wedding I headed over to Joy's house for a wedding makeup trial.
She loved it and booked me on the spot!
The lighting in these two photographs makes the makeup look very different.
Here are some notes on Joy's makeup:
Eyes: Brows- Joy likes a stronger brow- she usually uses smoke in her brows. Use saddle strongly all throughout the brow.
Ivory/bone flat base shadow all over the lid.
Burnished cream shadow all over the lower lid.
Thick black gel eyeliner all over upper lashline and use the definer brush + gel on lower lash line.
Smudge gel with black shadow being careful to leave some brightness from the burnished in the inner corners.
Soften the crease with Burnt Sugar + Chocolate shimmer
Two sets of 'Whispies' false lashes from Alcone. Be careful not to glue the lashes too close to the inner corners. Glue the first set close to the innrer corners and the second set farther towards the outer corners. Waterproof mascara.
Skin: Dark Peach + Dark Bisque Correctors. Golden + Almond Concealer. 6.5 Natural Finish Foundation all over and Golden Foundation stick on top. Deep Bronzer evenly all over then contour upper lip (to appear more flat and deep), sides of nose, temple, jaw and cheek bones. Warm Natural Concealer highlighting top of nose, chin and cheek bones. Pale pink blush. Bronze Shimmer brick all over and Star Shimmer powder on highlighted points.
Lips: Beige + tangerine lip sheer, crystal + YSL #10 Gloss on top.
