You know how I feel about hair accessories. They’re a must. Flowers, antiques brooch, vintage clips, modern clips, pearls, rhinestone and don’t even get me started on feathers!  Check out Jessica peacock feather hair clip bought on Estsy.com. Gorgeous!

Jessica’s big day was just last weekend.  We had met for her trial back in December and had lots of fun playing hair and makeup.

As you can see, she has a massive amount a beautiful hair, which always makes my job easier.  She asked to duplicate what we had done for her trial.  Volume and texture on the top with an intertwined, curly chignon, at the base of her neck.  The veil was secured under the chignon and her clip fastened to the side.  You can’t go wrong with hair like that!

My intention was to also show you Jessica’s makeup.  But let’s be honest here, as much as I like to own an expensive camera, I’m no photographer.  I just get lucky.  Sometimes. Ha!

This time luck wasn’t on my side.  I completely screwed up Jessica’s photos from the front (the lighting really sucked and I didn’t even noticed) so you get to see Jenny’s makeup instead.  And since they’re identical twins and opted for very similar makeup, it’s kinda of like looking at Jessica anyway. 😉

 

As always I airbrushed the foundation.  I bronzed and highlighted her skin and applied a peachy pink blush.  Her eyes were smokey and created with my venerated Urban Decay Naked Palette.  Black eyeliner and false eyelashes were added for more glam.  The lips were done with a mac prolong wear, shimmery, neutral pink.

 

Loved meeting you both. :wub: And Jessica congratulations, you were a stunning brides. THANK YOU for the sweet review!!!!XO
