How to Build Your Bridal Makeup Kit {Checklist}

Would you LOVE to be booked months in advance for Brides?

The big secret is: It’s all in the kit!

Build it with PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP.

Achieving a flawless beauty look for your Bride starts with what kind of makeup you use.

Use Professional grade makeup products.

 

Why Professional?

Would a skin care professional perform a facial with something she purchased from a drug or department store?

 

Don’t use makeup anyone can access or apply.

Because using exclusive products makes your work more desirable to clients, I’ve put together a list of 13 PRODUCTS that SHOULD be in your KIT.

 BOOKED-SOLID!

PROFESSIONAL  MAKEUP KIT CHECKLIST

  1. MOISTURIZER – Hydrate her skin to improve appearance of skin texture and tone.
  2. FOUNDATION – Liquid or airbrush that gives the most “natural” finishes.
  3. PRIMER – Helps makeup stay put from first looks to evening reception.
  4. CONCEALER – Hide pimples, dark spots & cover under eye circles from rehearsal dinner.
  5. MAKEUP SPONGE – Game changer!  Her skin will look like those flawless Instagram filters!
  6. BLUSH &
  7. BRONZER – Delivers a natural looking flush of color with the perfect bridal bronze ‘glow’.
  8. MASCARA – An absolute necessity in your makeup kit!  (Don’t forget those spoolies)
  9. EYELINER – Defines eyes and makes them “POP” (opt for Dk. Brown)
  10. EYE SHADOW PALETTE – Aim for a natural eye look, combining shimmery champagne and soft pinks & matte browns.
  11. LIPSTICK – The finishing touch to the makeup look.  The 4 must have shades are: nude, brown, pink, red.
  12. HIGHLIGHTER – Gives that lit-from-within glow every Bride wants!

With the RIGHT products and PROPER application, your Bride’s makeup will last all day and night and you can bet she will RECOMMEND you to all her soon-to-be-married, single friends!

FACT:  Most Makeup Artists come as a recommendation from a friend that had used her or him for their own wedding makeup.

(VIDEO) Biggest Makeup Mistakes Women Over 40 Make

After 40, Lipstick and Foundation are your Best Friends – Be Careful not to get into trouble with them though.

HERE ARE THE TWO BIGGEST MISTAKES I see women over 40 make when it comes to Makeup:

The first one is, they wear way too much foundation.  They cover their entire face like frosting on an angel food cake.  This isn’t necessary and it ages you.

Pro Tip:  I recommend a little foundation on a brush, and apply it in the center of your face – that’s where most discoloration is.

The second mistake is that they apply a dark lip color.  As we age our lips shrink and get thinner (Even Mick Jagger will have smaller lips someday!)  Dark colors on your lips will make them look even thinner.

Pro Tip:  I recommend that you use lighter colors on your lips to give the illusion of fuller lips.
