Real Bride Story: Esi’s Soft Glam Transformation

Soft glam bridal makeupEvery bride has a unique story, and Esi’s was nothing short of beauty. When she reached out to me, she had a clear vision: she wanted a timeless, soft glam look that enhanced her natural beauty while making her feel confident and radiant on her wedding day.

Understanding Esi’s Vision

She wanted a makeup look that would complement the romantic setting and her gown without feeling heavy or overdone.

The Trial Session

During our initial conversation, Esi mentioned how important it was for her makeup to feel light and comfortable while lasting throughout the day.

We began with a trial session a few months before the wedding. After prepping her skin with hydrating products to create a flawless base, I used a lightweight foundation that evened out her complexion without masking her natural glow.

For her eyes, we went with soft browns and rose gold and soft pink tones, adding depth with a subtle smoky liner and fluffy, natural-looking lashes. Her brows were softly defined to frame her face without looking too harsh.

For her lips, we chose a nude-pink shade that was both elegant and fresh. A touch of blush and a delicate highlighter on her cheekbones brought everything together, giving her that radiant bridal glow.

The Wedding Day Look

On the morning of her wedding, Esi was calm and relaxed as I recreated her soft glam look. We had already perfected every detail during the trial, so it was all about execution.

To ensure her makeup lasted through happy tears and hours of dancing, I used long-wearing, waterproof formulas. I finished her look with a setting spray to lock everything in place.

As she looked at herself in the mirror, Esi eyes lit up.

The Outcome

Esi’s soft glam makeup perfectly complemented her glowing happiness as she walked down the aisle. Her skin looked radiant, her eyes sparkled, and her lips carried the sweetest smile. The soft, romantic look fit seamlessly with her outdoor garden wedding theme and stayed flawless through the celebrations.
