Give Me A Natural Bridal Makeup Look

Most of the brides I meet want me to create a look for them that is natural and glowing but with a hint of drama.  But what does a natural makeup look really involve?  It's no secret in the industry that those makeup artists that can achieve beautiful natural glowing makeup looks, whether it be for brides or commercial/advertising clientele are always highly sought-after because this is the look that most clients ask for and really want. 

So today I thought I would share with you some of the products I use most often to create those natural bridal looks you all love!

Let's Talk Base...

When I am not airbrushing, I most often use Face Atelier ultra foundations or YABY liquid foundations.  Both are Canadian based companies - so yay for both!  But more importantly than that, they both provide a medium coverage that is buildable when necessary while providing very good longevity.
Got something to hide...

My favourite concealers are Keromask concealer or YABY creamy concealers - both are super creamy but very effective!  To create a natural look every product you use must blend well into each other.  These 2 concealers do that and also kick butt! : )

Make me blush why don't you...

I love to use my Graftobian cream blushes right on the apple of the cheek or my La Femme powder blushes - I also use La Femme blushes when I'm contouring to create a bit of drama on the cheekbones for those ladies who want to glam up the cheekbones a little!

The Eyes have it...

Hands down I most often use my YABY neutral palette or my Ben Nye matte shadows in natural tones.  I  contour and blend until the eyes pop!  I follow this up with 2-3 coats of waterproof mascara in black.

SWAK....

My favourite product to create a natural sexy lip is Face Atelier lip glaze in peach - it's long lasting and gorgeous on just about everyone. It gives a slight hint of colour and just looks super sexy on most women!

Powder me baby....

Ben Nye Banana Visage Poudre gives a gorgeous finish and a beautiful candlelit glow to the skin that is subtle. When I want a more dewy, glowing effect I use my YABY highlighting palette and add highlights to the top of the cheekbone and along the bridge of the nose.

Enjoy your weekend everyone!  See you all soon!
