With all the weddings I have done over my 15+ year career you think I would have done a South Asian Wedding. But for whatever reason it never really happened. I have done makeup for a South Asian Bridal Magazine-Lavish Dulhan but never an actual REAL bride…until this summer!
I met my bride Natasha through a referral. She needed hair and makeup services for 3 days over the August long weekend-Friday would be the Hannah, Saturday the ceremony and Sunday the reception. I first did her makeup and hair trial and immediately I appreciated Natatsha’s great sense of humour! I also liked how she went for a more modern and soft look for her hair and makeup which is not exactly the traditional South Asian way.
Here are the key products I used on Natasha:
1. Elenett Hairspray-Loreal 2. Blow Pro-Heat protective spray 3. LA Wand Curling Iron 4. Blacktrack Fluidline-MAC Cosmetics 5. Model 21 lashes 6. Fanfare Lipstick-MAC Cosmetics 7. Pale Pink Blush-Bobbi Brown 8. Hello Flawless Powder-Benefit 9. Hello Flawless Foundation-Benefit
One of the coolest things I saw at this wedding was their videographer from Escape Studios used a drone to capture some AMAZING aerial shots! You gotta check it out:
So much fun right!
When I work with such an awesome bride + bridal party, I really don’t mine spending my whole long weekend with them 😉
