Bridal make-up for a wedding in West London

 

I love this photo of one of my September brides, captured beautifully by Lorna at Story Wedding Photography (NB. I’ve cropped this a little from the original): http://www.storyweddingphotography.co.uk/

Steph wanted a more glamorous look for her wedding day, so I created a smoky yet soft eye make-up for her, mainly using Too Faced eyeshadow in ‘Cherry Cordial’, with black gel eyeliner and fluffy false lashes to add extra drama.

For the skin, I used Charlotte Tilbury Light Wonder foundation in the shade ‘Fair 2’ and Clarins Instant Concealer in shade ’01’ to brighten up the area under her eyes.

I then set everything with Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish face powder in ‘Fair 1’, a light bronzer to contour, and then a dusting of Chanel powder blusher in ‘Discretion’ to add a subtle pink glow to Steph’s cheeks.

Finally, I used a matte peachy-pink lipstick called ‘Kidman’s Kiss’ by Charlotte Tilbury, to balance out the strength of the eye make-up.
