Audrey’s Wedding

Audrey! Her smile just brightens the room! She booked me late 2016 for her wedding including her pre wedding photoshoot with the amazing Adebayo Deru.

We had a consultation session a few weeks to her wedding to go over looks.

On the wedding day I arrived at The Hilton Maidstone Hotel which was her prep location. I quickly checked on the member from my beauty team who was working on the bridal party before going to start on the bride.

Audrey has oily skin so I used just MAC fix + to hydrate after cleansing her skin with Garnier Micellar water. Brows were filled in using MAC spiked eye brow pencil and combed through using Anastasia Beverly hills brow gel in caramel to tone down the brow colour.

MAC paint pot in soft ochre was used as base before creating a champagne hued eye look using the Lorac pro eye shadow palette. Inglot gel liner in 77 was used to line both top and water line before finishing off with Ardell lashes in 120.

Her skin was prepped using Becca Ever matte primer before colour correcting her pigmentations using LA girl pro conceal in orange.

Lancome teint idole ultra was my foundation of choice in a mix of 12, 13 and 14. This was followed by NARS creamy concealer in Amande which was applied to the under eye area and set using Laura Mercier loose setting powder in Translucent.

For added coverage I buffed in MAC studio fix powder in NW45 all over the face before contouring using MAC studio fix powder in NW58. To highlight I used Becca’s shimmering skin perfector in Topaz and blush – MAC ambering rose was swept all over her cheeks.

On her lips, MAC lipliner in chestnut was used to fill in the outer edges followed by a mix of pink lipsticks from my lipstick palette to get this particular hue. Unfortunately I can’t remember the exact shades 🙁

This was finished off with MAC lipgloss in Nymphette.

Does Audrey not look stunning in her dress! Hair by Charishair, Dress by Alonuko.
