Professional Makeup Tips from Linda Kelly - LOOK YOUR BEST!

On your wedding day you want to look radiant, fabulous and relaxed; not stressed. A great way to prepare for your special day is by having the experts come to you! That's why Linda Kelly specializes in coming to your location. (Don't forget to ask your mom and future mother-in-law to participate as well as any other special friends and relatives.) Imagine everyone getting together for a "beauty party" with snacks and beverages, some music playing on a CD player and you and your friends laughing and talking as all of you are transformed with flawless-looking faces and a makeup application uniquely designed for your personalities.  Bring your cameras, take pictures, have fun! Ask your hairstylist if they do upstyling or special occasion hair and if they are willing to go on location. If not,  Linda can recommend great hairstylists who will come to your location and work with your wedding party.                                                                  Photo by Alamo Photographic

Airbrush makeup is "airbrushed" onto the skin with the use of an airbrush and an air compressor. The special formula and unique application easily covers imperfections, large pores and uneven skin tones to give a flawless look! The airbrush makeup feels smooth and light, almost as if you aren't wearing anything! The result is flawless looking skin! It is the best makeup for humid Texas weather because it's humid and transfer resistant; it won't rub off! 

COMPLIMENTARY BRIDAL CONSULTATIONS

Linda offers complimentary bridal consultations designed to assist you in creating your special look. Your dress style, the wedding and reception theme, hairstyle, personality and makeup preferences  are all part of the discussion leading up to the creation of a personalized makeup look for your special day. Using actual makeup, the look is sketched onto a face chart and saved for future use. A trial makeup application is always an option and it is recommended that you do this when you can wear the makeup for several hours to really give it the test.

TIPS FOR BETTER MAKEUP APPLICATION:

Like an artist prepares the canvas before painting a picture, you too should prepare your skin before applying makeup. Taking good care of your skin by cleansing and moisturizing daily is probably something you already do but how often do you use a masque? Oily skin or combination skin benefits from a clay-based masque about twice a week. Dry skin can benefit from a moisture masque. All skin types can benefit from a light exfoliation at least twice a week. This will allow your fresh skin to glow and makeup looks dramatically better on skin that has been well taken care of.  I recommend you share these tips with your bridal party so their skin looks great too. Please be sure to ask me about skin care with your complimentary consultation!

For those of you who utilize a waxing regimen ... it is best not to wax eyebrows or other facial hair too close to the wedding day. Linda recommends at least three days prior to makeup application to have any waxing done.
