About Makeup Tips & Pro-Hacks
Want that 'glass skin' look or need your makeup to survive a 12 hour wedding day? It starts long before the foundation touches your skin. I am sharing my exact techniques, from mixing the right illuminators for a dewy finish to secret eye opening hacks, so you can look like yourself, just 100 times better.
Great makeup is not just about the products you use, it is about how you prep the canvas. Whether you are dealing with texture or just want that extra glow for your wedding day, here is the reality behind the photos you see.
Why Skin Prep Matters
Most people think makeup causes breakouts, but it is usually the lack of proper prep. Before I start any application, I focus on hydration and balancing the skin. This means cleaning, toning, and using the right serum so your makeup sits on your skin, not on top of it like a heavy mask. If you have a big event coming up, start your skincare routine at least three months prior.
My Go To Hacks
- The Glass Skin Hack: For that dewy, 'lit from within' look, mix a little bit of high end gloss or illuminator with your base products. Apply it only to the high points of your face, like the cheekbones and bridge of the nose, to catch the light.
- The Snatched Eye Technique: To make your eyes look bigger and lifted, extend your crease eyeshadow outwards rather than just blending it into the socket. It is an instant illusion that changes your entire face shape.
- The Natural Flush: Never rely solely on powder blush. For a seamless look that lasts through food and laughter, layer a liquid blush after your base is set. Warm it between your fingers first, then press it into the apples of your cheeks for a natural, healthy glow.
Why Professional Matters
Doing your own makeup for a party is one thing, but for your wedding, you need longevity. My kits are packed with flash friendly products, sweat proof setters, and specific tools to ensure your look stays perfect from the morning rituals to the final reception dance.
