My Niece was married this month and I was lucky enough to be asked to do her makeup.  I love chatting with all of you that visit our website and creating colors and products can be so much fun but, one of my favorite things to do is apply Makeup.

 

I love watching the transformation take place on someones face.  My Niece is a beautiful girl without a stitch of makeup, but to see her on her wedding day with her hair up, makeup done and her wedding gown on was a breathtaking transformation. 

 

Speaking of transformations, how did this little girl go from walking down
the aisle 19 years ago  with her cousin (my stepson) on my wedding day turn into
the beautiful Bride Below? 
 
Where does time go?
 

  I have added some photos for you to view and wish all of you a “beautiful day every day”!

Applying Eye Shadow

Close up of Eyes before False lashes are applied.
 
Foundation, Finishing Silk, Color Booster, Eyes and now a small amount of lip liner.
Gloss will be added once the dress is on!

The Bride is Ready and isn’t she beautiful!

Here’s a Close Up!

Foundation - Mixture of Natural Buff, Radiance and I added some Cherub Dust for a glow.
Afterglow on the Cheeks, Chin, and Nose
Highlighting layer of Cherub Dust on the upper cheeks
On the eye - I added a layer of Oyster from lid to below brow, then added Amethyst with a hint of Medallion in the crease.  Then Highlighted with Oyster below the brow bone again and in the corners of the eye. I then added a wet liner of Amethyst after she drew in a line with her waterproof liner to show me how thick she wanted the line.  A few lashes on the corners a little liner on the lips, mascara and some gloss make for a lovely bride.

 

 

Also in honor of Nicole’s Wedding I am creating a Mineral Makeup Bridal Kit with the colors that were used on her for the wedding.  You will be able to choose your own foundation but the rest of the kit will be pre-made and ready to go!
