Wedding Makeup - August 21st, 2011

On Sunday, August 21st I got to opportunity to work with my good friend Melissa as her assistant for a wedding. I was a bit nervous, as I haven't done wedding makeup for such a long time!!

I worked on the Maid of Honour and Mother of The Bride. They were both lovely and I felt at ease working with them.

For the Mother of the Bride, I used a mixture of a water-based foundation from Evolutions @ Seneca College and Arbonne Perfecting Liquid Foundation. For her eyes I used the dark palette from Evolutions @ Seneca and some waterproof liquid liner to put more emphasis on her eyes. Melissa applied some false lashes. On her lips I used a wine red after lining them with a neutral lip liner.

For the Maid of Honour, I used a mix of two water based foundations from Evolutions @ Seneca. She wasn't used to wearing makeup, so we kept her eyes toned down with a dark brown from the Dark Palette from Evolutions @ Seneca. Again, I used a waterproof liquid liner for her eyes and Mel finished the look off with false lashes. I used the Evolutions @ Seneca lip palette and mixed a pinkish gold hue with a mauve shade so she could get some colour and sheen.
