I love my make-up lady! Super indulgent, mega vain FLASHATHON!

Arquard, 19 April, 2011 at 20:39 Posted on Planning 0 22

I feel preeetttyyyyy, oh soo preeeetttttyyyyyyyy! *ahem* sorry, but I had my second trial today and am SO much happier than last time. My make-up and hair lady is an actual genius, or my fairy godmother. Can't decide which. Firstly, airbrush foundation is my new most favouritest thing EVER. Problem skin - yeah it's still there, but you can't tell! Secondly, she's managed to get my just-past-chin-length bob to work into a beautiful array of curls and pretty bits. There's possibly about a thousand pins in my hair and at least a gallon of industrial strength hairspray, but it's up and curly and looks FAB.

Now for the interesting part!!

Hair from the back with and without veil



My eyes are closed so you can see the lovely eyeshadow, not cos I'm an eejit, lol. Also check out the miracle coverage from that foundation!

With jewellery, including a feature shot of my SUPERB headband from our very own Lynsey's Designs! Not only is it stunning, but it's so darn comfortable!



I am so, so glad I decided to book a professional make-up person. There is no way I could have gotten a look like this with my kit!

    Awww thanks you lovely people! I normally look like <--- that (posing with h2b, lol) so am really chuffed with the stuff from today. I'm so relieved about my skin too because it had really flared up this week and my cheeks were bright red! Yay for airbrush make-up!

    I'd actually never heard of airbrushing 'til someone on here mentioned it. Looked on my make-up lady's website and she happened to be a qualified technician, so I asked her about it today and she tried it out! The major difference between it and normal foundation, is that it's silicone-based rather than water based. You get a very fine layer of the actual *stuff* but it sticks to your skin better and lets it breathe more. Apparently.

    My hair took about 45 minutes to pin up after it had been in rollers for about 20 mins. I just took it all down and counted 59 pins in it!! It looks very funny now. I feel a bit like Sideshow Bob, lmao!
