Lack of a hair and makeup artist is going to put me in tears! Ive had my hair style picked since month 2 post proposal. Having a super hard time on makeup i just know i want my eyes to pop! I found one that has 180 for the trial and 130 for day of hair and makeup, oh and because of my freckles do i do sheer matte makeup or full coverage ? And do i use regular makeup or airbrush!? Someone beauty guru please please help me! Hair and makeup artist 1

    I plan on doing something more light for my eyeshadow with a little shimmer, kind of similar to this picture: Hair and makeup artist 3

    for the coverage of your foundation, what do you normally do with your foundation? I think they are super cute to have showing! But I think that would be just personal preference. and what you like. I think wedding make up should enhance your looks and not be too much to where you don't look like the same person. Smiley smile Hope that helps!

    I would go with something more natural/ a lighter foundation then. Smiley smile It would be a little more than what you would usually do but you would still look like you.

    I was browsing through some discussions and I just came a crossed one, I couldn't figure out how to share or I might not even be able to but here was the title and who wrote it you might be able to search it and they went into a lot of detail in the comments:

    Daughter is a redhead with lots of freckles. She found a wonderful HMUA who had photos in her portfolio of a bride with almost identical coloring, and that helped daughter feel more confident about the choice (she'd had friends do her make-up in HS who had no clue about how to work with her skin tone, etc., and it looked completely wrong on her). Her HMUA used airbrush foundation that evened out her skin tone, but her freckles were still very much visible -- just a bit softer. The HMUA added a bit of color to make her brows and lashes darker than their norm, but still soft and consistent with her skin tone. With added false lashes and eye shadow, her eyes definitely "popped," but she looked completely natural -- just a much more polished version of herself. She looked gorgeous both in person and in photos/video, and her make-up lasted 12+ hours. Good luck!

    I'm actually so jealous of your freckles!


    I asked my MUA about airbrush; she said in her experience, she likes using it on
    people with oily/combo skin as opposed to those with dry skin. I have
    the former, so I went with airbrush. (And she did airbrush foundation
    only -- the blush, contouring, etc. was done by hand with powder
    products.) Once you do select an artist, I would ask them lots of questions.


    Here were my inspiration photos:

    We ended up going with the middle one (medium 'glam'), that she then
    tweaked/personalized to me, and I picked a different lip color.


    Here's how it turned out, which I was super happy with!

    And it photographed extremely well imo:

    As someone who also has clots of freckles my girl decided to do airbrush. In addition she told me it would last better in the summer heat for me. I loved the way it felt on my face and the coverage is able to be controlled a bit more.
