What I am loving now-Polished Bridal Hair and Makeup

August 31st, 2010

Emily Blunt looks amazing with this very chic and polished red carpet look.  I am obsessed with feminine and sexy looks this fall for our brides. If you are a bride-to-be that wants a classic but not too uptight look to her bridal hair and makeup this look nails it. Emily’s beautiful eyes (try NARS Paris eye shadow duo to get this look) with just the right amount of black liner, gives you that smokey yet ultra polished eye.

Emily Blunt chic and modern

I have downloaded tons of apps that are so helpful on my IPhone but this one is the best for brides. Just picture it, you are drinking a fab glass of red wine at your rehearsal dinner and your hunky husband-to-be gets so excited about his toast that he hits your glass of wine and it’s now all over your Marchesa dress. What’s a chic gal to do? Well, click on your Cloroxmystain app it’s simple and super handy! You just enter the type of stain you need removed, and it will tell you how to get it out two different ways: On-the-go and at home! And the best part is the app is FREE!!!

Now go grab that Amarone and enjoy!

OK ladies, you know how much I stress the importance of the following:

1. Research your Xtreme lash stylist

2. Make sure you see before and after pictures of your lash stylist’s work

3. How many Xtreme lash full sets or fills do they do in a week?

I can’t tell you how many clients come into my studio for an Xtreme lash fill with extensions that are damaging their natural lash because of improper application, too much glue or the wrong thickness and length. It’s so important to know the points mentioned above.  These are your eyes and you are trusting a professional to apply surgical glue to your natural eyelashes. The quality of your lash extensions depends solely on the skills of your lash stylist, make sure you research and get referrals from other Xtreme Lash clients when it comes to booking your next fill or full set.

I had a client come in today that had a real issue with her Xtreme Lashes. They were too long for her natural lashes which you can see by the ”before” pictures. There was too much glue at the base and they were too heavy for  her natural lash making her extensions twist and clump together.

The first pictures below are of when my client arrived to my studio,  I always take pictures so I can show the client what they looked like and what I did to correct the damage.

Products used for this Xtreme Lash application:

Preped with Xtreme eye makeup remover and facial cleanser

Prep with Xtreme Lash primer

There are many people in this world that will try and bring you down, keep your glossy locks in place, hold your head high and think “I am happy I am not like them”.  You are amazing, beautiful and a true blessing to this world.

Dwelling on the negative simply contributes to its power.

Go out there girls and create the life you were meant to live!
