⚡️SOFT PERFECTION

Barely there, almost “no makeup” makeup, but a little something. Not too done, makeup where needed and none in other areas👌🏼

This was before the lip and the original 90s vintage wedding dress handed down through the family.

The details on this wedding were perfection and I was too busy with touch ups to get snaps so we’ll have to wait for the professional pics I’m afraid! Looking forward to seeing those

A beautiful spring wedding, huge congrats Nic 🎀

Sculpted, radiant and natural. Save thanks for the nervous bridesmaid who wants to look like herself but is scared of getting her makeup done.

I love working with clients like this because it totally changes how they feel .. and if there were nerves before it’s all vibes after!

⚡️H O T 🔥

Billi got married on the hottest day of the year at and let me tell you those Dyson fans worked hard!

Despite the heat, we managed to keep the look glowing rather than sweaty - ngl I left there keeping everything crossed that her look lasted in the blinding heat ….. and IT DID! I got a lovely message from Billi to say, despite the heat the makeup stayed perfect 👌🏼

You can find all the details for this look in the brides section of my - link in bio.

I often hear.. I don’t wear bronzer, I’m too pale.

I’m here to tell you - baaaaabe yes you can! It’s all about finding the right tones.

Anything that’s too dark can look muddy, too warm can look orange or too cool can read grey.

For this fair babe I opted for
Airbrush Bronzer in 01 Fair: a barely there neutral bronzer that gives a hint of shaping and a light wash of colour that sits comfortably on fair skin and isn’t overpowering.

Other options to look at:

instant warmth bronzer in Inda Sun
Golden Glow in Jensta
Cloud Paint in Sail

If you’re a pale babe, what are your fav bronzing options? ☀️
