Make-up, Make-up & More Make-up!

Sorry I haven't posted as much lately. It's been a busy few weeks! I had my third make-up trial last weekend. It was probably the best thus far, but after three trials, I think I have come to the conclusion that I want to do my OWN make-up on my wedding day. I will get some of the products that were used last weekend but do it myself. I think this will be a wise decision, even if it has the potential to add additional stress. {One thing I WON'T do is my own hair, though!}

Here are some photos from last weekend.

Make-up Trial #2

I got my make-up done by another person last week. Overall, it was good, but I think the foundation is slightly too light and not blended enough around the hairline.

Check out the fake eyelashes! Aren't they awesome? Definitely a must for the wedding day.

I think I may have one more person do my make-up and see how that goes. What do you think?

Make-Up for the Big Day

For my make-up on wedding day, I want to have smoky eyes & nude lips and a bit of bronziness on my face. I totally just made up that word! I am inspired by Eva Mendes's make-up, so I took a picture of her with me when I did a make-up trial recently at Merle Norman.

It didn't turn out quite the way I had hoped, so I am going to do another trial with a different make-up artist so I can compare. The make-up in the photos below is a little too "pink," if that makes sense. What do you think? I am actually going for trial #2 today, so I will post new pics soon!
