Courtney's St. Augustine, FL Wedding Bridal Makeup


How do you make an already gorgeous bride even more beautiful? You give her lashes for days, eyes that can stop traffic and a smooth and creamy complexion that's reminiscent of peaches and cream. Courtney really shopped around for the ideal makeup artist. After much consideration, she graciously chose I Love Her Makeup as her St. Augustine, FL bridal makeup artistry service. I of course could not have been more smitten.

She loved the idea of enhancing her best features without looking overly done. Courtney was a bit anxious about her mild adult acne. As I always tell my clients, I have yet to see a skin "issue" that the airbrush application can not handle... In the end, the result was less than stellar. Along with her Jessica Simpson inspired bridal hair (by Bobbie at Mahela Salon), I used bronze and copper tone Laura Mercier shadows to bring out her AMAZING blue eyes. We softly contoured her brows with a MAC soft blonde brow product. She was so excited by the way this small but often overlooked detail helped to pull her look together. A Tea rose pout created an overall sultry yet sophisticated take on wedding day beauty.


Raychel was Courtney's Maid of honor and was as thorough as was the bride when it came to what she wanted.. Along with Courtney, Raychel helped carefully select my services ensuring that they received the best quality wedding day beauty expertise in town. Looking at her I knew my job was going to be a blast. I worked her eyes with a turquoise blue liner and added lush lashes to accentuate and enlarge. We also focused on bringing out her barely there brows and all though reluctant at first, she could not have been more pleased. It's all about making the features come to life in a "natural" manner. For this look, I opted for a pale pink lip and finished her off with subtle contouring using a Guerlain bronzer, a product to which I am addicted. What a blast it was to work with Courtney and Raychel.
