Jussi - Beautiful Bride 2013. Leicester.

One of the most requested bridal looks I get asked for is this one that I created on the absolutely gorgeous, Jussi.

Jussi got married in 2013 - and as you can see, looked like she had walked onto a set of Asiana magazine. Just stunning.




Jussi's outfit was a gorgeous, red colour - with Gold and Sliver adornments.
At the trial we discussed the best looks - to compliment her bridal outfit, as well as the longevity of the look as Jussi would be having her makeup done at 4am, travelling to Leamington Spa, and then back to Leicester for the evening reception. Her Bridal makeup lasting, was top priority.

We used a variety of eyeshadows on Jussi's eyes, colours that would pick up the Gold and Silver threading and beading.
MAC: Shroom/Phloof - Inner corner
MAC: Woodwicked - Middle eye - with a small amount of Amber lights pressed on top.
MAC: Embark and Carbon - Outer eye.

All the above colours complimented Jussi's skin tone, and outfit perfectly.
We finished off the look with some false lashes and a flick of black eyeliner.

Jussi had, perfect skin - so it wasn't difficult applying her base makeup. Using Bobbi Brown foundations in the colour, 'Natural' - we used the smallest amount, buffing it on with a Duo Fibre, Makeup brush and setting it with various, setting/finishing powders.

To show off Jussi's impressive cheekbones, I used a dark shade of concealer - gently tracing it down the contours of her face and buffing it into the skin.

On the lips we used one colour which was Russian Red by MAC. This colour is very pigmented, so is perfect if you want the colour to last. When it eventually wears off, the colour will have stained the lips - so you will still have some product left on the lips.




Jussi was very organised, and ensured she had a face powder and blusher to hand for the day - for small touch up's if required.
As with all brides, I provided her with her Bridal lip colour.
Doesn't she look beautiful?
