I had the great pleasure of being asked to work in Bridal Reloved in Maldon this week, to do the makeup for their models on a Slow motion photo book for their boutique coffee table. It was a great experience to go in, as they've been brilliant to us in the past, lending us gorgeous dresses for shoots, so I was more than happy to go in and help. If you would like a bespoke designer gown, this boutique is fab to visit, as you'll often find gowns that are high end designer at a lower cost, and they'll have only been worn once before. Jemma the owner wanted me to create a 1920s feel makeup for this lovely model Cat. I love anything vintage and love a chance to do something different. On Cat, we airbased her but I was concious that I didnt want to cover her freckles as that can often look so unnatural. I used an Estee Lauder longwear pot in a shimmery grey all over the eye to give it a lived in smokey look and some fab red cherry lashes. On her lips I opted for a Daniel Sandler red in Casablanca, as its a 30s red, very wearable, but I washed it out with a gloss so that it didnt look too perfect. Here is the result below and will look forward to seeing the professional images. xx
