Bridal Party FOTD




Products I Used On Myself And The Girls: 
 

1. Bronzer side of the Elf Bronzer and Blush Duo
2. MAC Painterly Paint Pot to prime the eyelids
3. Urban Decay All Nighter Spray to Set the makeup and make it last all night--which it did! :)
4. Urban Decay Eyeshadow in Smog
5.Makeup Forever Matte Velvet Plus Foundation in #45
6. Garnier Dark Under Eye Circle Roller
7. Covergirl Lashblast Mascara in whatever the blackest one is (I forget the name at the moment!)
8. MAC See Sheer Lipstick
9. Prestige Lip liner in Silk
10. Stila Kajal Eyeliner in Sapphire
11. NYX Jazz Nights Palette --This was the main palette used for all of the girls I did--LOVE the colors!
12. MAC Blush in Melba
13. Miss Adoro Lashes in #600 and #28
14. Duo Lash Glue in the Dark tone
15.L'Oreal Lineur Intense Liquid Eyeliner in black
16. Urban Decay Pore Perfecting Face Primer




Well there you have it, the list of ALL of the products used for all of the makeup I did that day including my own.  The makeup turned out spectacular and we all got tons of compliments on it! I had never done makeup for a wedding or even a large group of girls like this, normally I only do my own! It was very nerve wracking at first because of time constraints, but I made it work.  The other good thing is that I was doing the makeup for members of my own family, which made the whole process much easier because I didn't have to worry about using only products for clients and not mixing it with personal use makeup. My main goal was to make the girls look a little more dramatic for the sake of taking pictures, but also make them look themselves and not too out of their normal style. My second largest goal was to give them a look that would last all throughout the evening, and this was achieved thank goodness! The All Nighter Spray really does work! Staying Matte was a third goal and this was also possible for the majority of the evening.  Toward the end I saw a little shininess here and there, but nothing that a little blotting paper wouldn't help in an instant. 


All in all I had a wonderful time doing every ones makeup and it made me excited and happy that my cousin and my sister liked the outcome as well!

Bridal Shower Look of the Day

My Sister and I look nothing alike right?! haha Gosh I love her <3
Above you are seeing a picture of my sister and I. She got the gorgeous curly hair and green eyes and I got.....long silky straight hair and brown eyes? lol Seriously, what happened to me!? haha Anyway, this is a picture of us at a Bridal Shower this weekend, I thought I would share with you what I wore on my face and my outfit. Enjoy!


Clothing

1. Dress from Macy's by a brand named "Angie's" (I think)
2. Shoes, which you can't see fully and I apologize, are my Lucky Brand Acacia shoes. I have done a blog post containing these a few posts back, for more info on those, check it out! They are my favorite shoes of my entire collection :)
3. Bangles, I think my grandmother purchased these for me at Macy's as well a while back.
4. Nail Polish, Essie's Mob Squad, read my previous post to see how obsessed with this color I am!
5. Earrings, just regular Diamond studs (I don't remember from where!)

Makeup

1. Origins VitaZing all over to moisturize & Garnier Anti Age Dark Circle Roller Ball for under my eyes to brighten.
2. MAC MSF Natural in Medium Plus & MAC MSF Soft and Gentle as highlight.
3. Zhen Bamboo Foundation stick (to even out skin tone on eyelids to prep for shadow)
4. Urban Decay Primer Potion
5. NYC Sunny Bronzer (I prefer this over my MAC one, can you guys believe that?!)
6. Tarte Amazonian Clay Blush in Flush (Lightly applied this to the back of my cheek bones)
7. VS Lipstick in Heat (I find myself wearing this a lot lately, and someone always asks me the color! :)
8. From my UD Naked Palette: Naked and a little Half Baked all over the lid, tiny bit of Hustle in the outer V
9. MAC's Hepcat with my Sigma E40 brush blended into my crease (this brought out the fuchsia purples in my dress:)
10. Urban Decay's Perversion Shadow mixed with a dampened eyeliner brush for eyeliner on the top lid.
11. Revlon eyelash Curler and L'Oreal Voluminous Carbon Black as mascara! (My holy grail)

Its funny because as I was writing this list above, I was thinking omgoodness, did I really use more than 10 things for my makeup yesterday!? It literally only took me MAYBE 5 mins to do my makeup so it almost didn't seem believable, but tis' true darlings haha

If you guys see anything above that you want a more thorough blogpost on ie. review etc. let me know!
