Bridal Trial Makeup Session

The look this lovely bride-to-be was interested in for her session was, as she put it ~ "cat-like eyes". After looking through some photos she decided she wanted a somewhat smokey eye in gold/bronze colors. With eyes like hers ~ this was a dream! I lined the entire inner eye with black/brown liner. The upper lash line was also lined with black/brown and then softened. I continued the bronze shadow from above, under the eye. Then lashes were added for more drama and to draw the eye upward and outward. I was light-handed with the foundation/powder, since her skin is pretty darn flawless. Then I freshened her up with a smidge of under eye concealer and blush on the apples of her cheeks. For her gorgeous full lips I stayed true to her natural color, just going slightly darker. We were delighted with the outcome. I think she looks like a Grecian Goddess!
