Bridal Makep Product Tips
Johnny Lavoy


A powder foundation or crème-to-powder is a great option because it’s easy and its matte and gives decent coverage. Looks fresh throughout the day. All season friendly. Touches up easily.

Use Cream Lipstick instead of Lip glosses…blot lip with tissue …apply single ply of tissue and powder over the tissue…then apply a second coat of lipstick.

Lip Pencil don’t need to do it. If you do use it you must blend completely so that the bride will never end up with a line and no lip color

Cream foundation set with translucent powder + use a powder foundation where you want extra coverage. pr as highlight, contour or concealer

Always use a waterproof mascara

Don't use high-frost on the brow bone. It will look dated and also reflect camera flash too much

Frosts are okay on the lid but lean toward a satin or velvety shade with light sheen for brow

For a durable healthy glow use sheen powders on highlight points on the face…careful of undertone of highlight, loose powder pigments are great. Creates a great stay-put look.

Blush – keep blush tones in pinks beige or peaches – don’t contour with cheek color – use it as a flush.

False Lashes – they are great – use them carefully – trim them properly – be sure they are glued down properly OR Lashes – individual false lashes are a little better – if one is lost – less likely to be obvious if lose one.

Be sure to match foundation to the neck so you can avoid pulling product down into the neckline
.
Tattoo cover - most brides in white…constant friction is going to cause the cover to rub off over time. No matter how "stay proof" or "transfer resistant" the product - it's likely at the end of the night it will have begun to rub off and perhaps onto the dress.

If applying a gloss – but use a sheer gloss over a color lip pencil or set lipstick and keep it in the middle of the lip – not along lip line.

For eye lining – anything on the lower line should be waterproof – colorstay water proof

Main objective is making your bride the prettiest version of herself.
