MY DAY WITH MAKE UP FOR EVER

My friend Jacquie asked to be apart of her companies Artistry Seminar for Bridal Makeup. All of the girls who worked, modelled, and attended has such a blast discussing professional makeup tips and tricks to ensuring perfection to a variety of wedding looks. I was their model for Destination Bride lesson. The Artist demonstrated and discussed waterproof makeup, effortless and ethereal beauty for my look. It was a great opportunity to learn more about Bridal Makeup and makeup on me prior to my Big Day!  

Classic Bride, Destination Bride, and Vintage Bride prepped and waiting to go :)

I was in love with the carpet, would love an area rug with that pattern..

Voila! Destination Bride all done. 

It's not everyday you get to get professionally styled :)

MY NEW MAKE-UP: AFFORDABLE GLAMOUR

During my current path of getting married to my beau, and all funds are channeled in that direction since Christmas I have slowly treated myself to a few pieces of quality make-up that has instantly perked me up through the moments I have wanted to go shopping, but instead of going to the mall I send the confirmation email for our wedding invitations! I will post about our wedding invitations next ;)

FRESH FACE WITH DALISH

My makeup preference is definitely au natural. I'm never opposed to makeovers pre event to rock the dark eye one in a while! I also love the light eye, blush and lip stand out colour, usually peach. The face cream has a beautiful texture and fresh (lemon gelato) scent. Eyeshadow was easy to use, I'm wearing the lighter shade now, would definitely apply the darker shade on top to channel my smoky eye. It was easy to blend with my finger and dried with a beautiful shimmery light-reflecting glow.

Before and After...


The Peachy Keen Lip/Blush Balm was also easy to apply and blend with my fingers. I set it on my cheeks with a little press of my peach MAC blush, My Highland Honey. I applied the balm on my lips, added a little bit of the eyeshadow product (hehe) and my cherry lip chap to seal with moisture :)

THE ESSENTIALS

INSPIRED BY FABULOUS FELINES

On Tuesday I noticed the MAC cosmetic theme had been changed to Fabulous Felines :) LOVE the tabby cat incorporated in to the theme/inspiration. My fabulous feline Nigo definitely inspires me and I found it noteable enough to show this fun furry connection heading in to fall..

Collections available; Leopard Luxe, Palace Pedigreed and Burmese Beauty. I think you know which collection I am coveting.. Maybe I deserve a Tinted Lipglass to celebrate :) Wildly Refined...
