“I love this look because the bride’s natural features are accentuated, and the soft colors are so flattering to her skin tone. We used soft colors and a touch of shimmer on her eyes, and finished them off with a shadow liner and fluffy lashes. The bride’s complexion was flawless, so we just added a touch of highlight and light blush color to her cheeks. To finish the look, we went with a peach-toned lip color.”

“How do you go wrong with a gorgeous bride like this? The dimension in her platinum blonde, face-framing bangs blended perfectly into a classic bridal upstyle and allowed us to showcase her best facial features: her eyes and lips. We kept the under eye clean and neutral while popping her top lashes and playing with warm yet neutral eye shadows. We chose a slightly smudged out winged liner to mirror her fluffy arched brow perfectly. A simple all-over nude lip liner and frosting of our favorite pigmented gloss made for the perfect pout. A touch of bronze and pop of pink on the cheeks allowed us to bring forth her naturally blushed cheekbones, and a sprinkle of highlighter topped everything off, leaving her with a dewy and effortless glow that every bride is looking for on her big day!”

“This bride wanted Hollywood Glam and that’s exactly what we gave her! Finding different ways to use a product is my favorite part of makeup artistry. I used the Scott Barnes Chic Cheek No1 palette on her cheeks, nose, chin and eyes to tie everything together. Dior’s Backstage Glow palette in 001 was used as highlighter and eyeshadow, making for the perfect bridal glow!”

“A classic chignon just isn’t the same without tons of volume! This was created by priming the hair with L’Oreal Professional Super Dust. As the stunning shape transitioned into the woven bun, we used Absolut Repair Oil to add shine and smoothness to the look. We love a bold lipstick and the way the shade Sin by MAC perfectly matches the saturated notes in this bride’s bouquet. Incorporating blush tones from the Dominique Cosmetics Transition Palette gave this bride an overall flirty vibe.”

“More than ever, we are hearing from our brides that they want to look like themselves, but elevated. When they say glow, they mean a glow from within – not necessarily an over-application of powdery highlighters. This particular approach means that skin prep is key. We started by applying Sonia Roselli sexApeel™ Instant Exfoliation Spray to smooth her complexion and prep the face for moisturizer, followed by the Sonia Roselli Water Elixir Skin Prep. For a minimal but glowy foundation that evens out skin tone without providing full coverage, we applied the Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter in shade 4 all over the face. This gave the skin a beautiful, candlelit luminous effect.”
