Baltimore Weddings - Carats & Cake Featured Makeup Artist

My bridal makeup was featured on Carats and Cake for my client Brittany's outdoor wedding.  Brittany wanted a modern yet simple look. We decided the main focus of the wedding should be on her dress.  We didn't want her makeup to compete with her gown, so I suggested a more subtle look for her wedding. We both agreed that her skin should look natural; therefore, I did not incorporate any contouring techniques and kept the use of face makeup subtle.  In order to achieve this look, I emphasized her healthy-looking skin by creating a glowy and illuminated face.  I used illuminating face moisturizer mixed with a few drops of essential oils to give the skin a dewy look.  Next, I used hourglass seamless stick foundation to further accentuate her natural glow.  I then continued to perfect the skin by using NARS radiant concealer http://www.sephora.com/ radiant-creamy-concealer- P377873?skuId=1478387&om_mmc= ppc-GG_381463959_27499876239_ pla-178165971639_1478387_ 97594835319_9012019_c&country_ switch=us&lang=en&gclid=CM- syaz3iNQCFZq3wAodDKgNKA& gclsrc=aw.ds under the eye and eyelids.  I finished by applying a sheer wash of Bobbi brown loose powder over the entire facial area.  In wanting to give the skin a little extra warmth, I added NARS orgasm blushhttp://www.narscosmetics.com/ USA/orgasm-limited-edition- orgasm-blush/0607845040699. html and NARS laguna bronzer over the final coat of powder. http://www.sephora.com/laguna- liquid-bronzer-P407629?skuId= 1805910&om_mmc=ppc-GG_ 381463959_27499876239_pla- 178165971399_1805910_ 97594835319_9012019_c&country_ switch=us&lang=en&gclid= CO30hd_3iNQCFZaEaQodDN0Nfw& gclsrc=aw.ds  Finally, I finished the lips with a lip stain from OCC.
