This past week, I traveled back home to Ohio for one of my junior high/high school girlfriend’s wedding. I also had the pleasure of doing the beautiful bride’s makeup for her big day. Here is a photo of my gorgeous girlfriend, Pam, before:
Pam & I spoke in detail about what she envisioned for her wedding day look. The major things that topped her list were: airbrushed foundation, defined brows, pink lips and highlighting.
Here are a couple of photos of the finished “wedding day trial” look:

Here are a few photos from Pamela’s BIG day! We changed up the eye makeup a little for the wedding day look and decided to make the outer corner/crease a warmer tan fading into a darker brown as opposed to the charcoal gray look we did for her trial. I used the same eye shadows for the wedding day look, Naked 2 and Naked 3 palettes.
