Great makeup starts with great skin care!
In the months leading up to your wedding, skin care should be put on high priority! The
better condition your skin is in, the better your makeup will look, feel, and last
throughout the day.
Not to worry if your skin isn’t absolutely perfect - nobody’s is! As long as you focus on
keeping your skin smooth and hydrated, makeup will easily glide on for seamless coverage.
As a makeup artist, here are my recommendations on how to prepare your skin for
flawless makeup and flawless photos…
If you’re not already on a skincare system that works for you, I recommend starting, and
remaining faithful, to a routine for day and night. Products should be chosen in
accordance with your skin type.
You will need a good makeup remover, cleanser, moisturizer, eye cream, and exfoliating
scrub used 2-3 times/week. Depending on how much you'd like to invest in skincare,
serums used underneath your moisturizer can be extremely beneficial for hydration and
new cell turnover.
With so many different brands out there, it can be hard to know what to choose for
yourself! I’m a fan of simple, fragrance-free products. I don't like companies that make a
bunch of crazy promises!
You are more than welcome to email me with any skincare questions or concerns. This is
something we can also discuss at your consultation/trial run. I’d be happy to make some
recommendations!

Featured product of the moment:
SIGMA makeup brushes
Your makeup is only as good as the brushes you use! Everyone loves my brushes,
and asks me what I use. SIGMA is an US-based company whose brushes are top
quality! I've had my set for 5 years now, and they still look brand new. The
quality is the exact same as MAC, but for the price of 1 MAC brush, you can get
the entire SIGMA 12-piece brush set. I highly recommend these brushes ... and
shipping to Canada is only $6!
