Michelle’s Wedding

The Lovely Michelle was a referred booking from another makeup artist – Alison Cameron (An amazing makeup artist).

She booked me without a trial for herself, sister and mum.

On the day I arrived at her prep location to set up and begun work on her sister, mum and then Michelle.

I started off with my usual cleansing and hydrating routine.

Her brows are very sparse so I filled them in with light strokes using Anastasia Beverly hills brow definer in Dark brown and MAC eyeshadow in Swiss chocolate.

Her eyelids were prepped using MAC paint pot in Soft ochre. Colours used on her eyes – All MAC eyeshadows ( Amber light, Goldmine, Swiss chocolate, Embark and Carbon). The eye look was finished with the application of a gel liner and strip lashes. I added mascara to the false lashes which vamped up the eye look!

Foundation used was Lancome Teint Idole foundation in 13 followed by Kevyn Aucoin sensual skin enhancer in a mix of 13 & 14. This was set using Laura Mercier loose setting powder in Translucent.

To contour I used MAC studio fix foundation in NW58 and highlighted using Bobbi brown shimmer brick in Bronze glow. Blush used was Seduction by NARS, a beautiful burgundy shade.

Her look was finished off with a gorgeous deep berry lipstick – Hang up by MAC. No gloss was added.
