Makeup for Ira

I had the opportunity to do makeup for one of the most easy going brides a few weeks ago while I was in Indonesia.  You HAVE to love a girl who starts off her wedding day by eating a huge tiramisu cake for breakfast.  Fabulous much??  After filling her tummy with tiramisu and some Indonesian noodles, the bride was ready to get her makeup done.  Ira opted for pink lips for the ceremony...


....and then red lips for the reception


A few more pictures from the big day:

Makeup for Shirley

As I was going through the drafts portion of my blog to see which posts I need to finish, I was shocked to find that I never published the makeup I did for Shirley on her wedding day.  Mea Culpa to me for such oversight!  Without further ado then!

By the time I was almost done applying foundation and concealer to her face, I remembered I hadn't yet taken a before picture.




If any bride can rock leopard print on her Big Day in a stylish yet feminine way, it'd be Shirley.  This Cross Fit Merge superstar agreed to marry her sweetheart of 18 years when he popped the question in Italy!  Tres romantique, oui?
