I used a soft neutral lip from NARS Audacious lip palette and used browns and tans on her eyes from ybf beauty to accentuate but not overpower her features.” … “I chose to style Shannone’s hair down and wrap this beautiful headpiece around. l used a 1-inch Hot Tools Marcel iron and Kenra Design Spray 9.” (Gown: Eve of Milady, 1613)

Brianna & Natalie’s Bridal Beauty Tips:

Glowing Skin … “Invest in your skin. The number one concern my brides want me to address is their under-eye area. If you use eye cream, you will see a big difference in your skin.”
Communicate Your Ideas … “For your initial beauty consultation, bring pictures of your dress and the hair styles you are interested in.”

Stylish Glamour

“Brides often like a bump up in their makeup after the ceremony, so I gave Shannone’s lip a deeper purple. I also added Star Lit Powder from Make Up Forever on top of her eyelids for a gorgeous gold tone. You can use these powders wet or dry and add them to any color shadow.” … “For this look I added some Bellami hair extensions for volume and length and a half-up half-down style, giving Shannone textured volume on top and loose textured waves cascading over her shoulders. I used a 1-inch Hot Tools Marcel iron, Kevin Murphy DOO.OVER spray for volume and texture and SUDZZfx AreoFixx hairspray.” (Gown: Oleg Cassini CWG812, $1,458, at David’s Bridal)

Princess Style

“I wanted to showcase Shannone’s gorgeous skin. When matching colors to darker skin tones, it’s important to match the undertone correctly so as not to make the skin look ashy. Hydra Lock airbrush foundation from Temptu is perfect! I was able to match her skin and give her a radiant glow.” … “This dress was so sweet I wanted to style her hair accordingly. Adding a headband to her curls, I used a 1-inch Hot Tools Marcel iron, Kenra Design Spray 9, and SUDZZfx AreoFixx hairspray.” (Gown: Eve of Milady, 1619)
