Naperville Bridal Makeup

I absolutely love that my businesses is built on a strong foundation of referrals. My clientele is beyond awesome! Take this wedding for example… I met Beth, the mother of the bride on set working for one of my dear friends a clients, a local food personality, Momma Cuisine. A couple years later Beth’s gorgeous daughter, Danielle, is getting married and after a few failed bridal trials her daughter expressed concern in being able to locate a makeup artist who could provide the look she had in mind. The two blonde beauties shot me an email, gave me a call and we set up a trial right away, for both of them!

Danielle wanted a classic natural bridal look, playing up the lashes with a flawless complexion. For her eyes I applied a gorgeous pale beige all over her eyelid with a bit of almond brown in the crease. Then a thin black gel eyeliner applied using an angle brush, followed by some golden highlight on the inner corner of her eyes and along the brow bone. On her complexion I used Kett Cosmetics Airbrush foundation and blush. Danielle wanted a more natural looking lip so I applied lip liner topped with a clear gloss for just enough tint to show up on camera. Check out my work on Danielle and her bridal party below!
