BRIDAL BLISS

Having been a bride myself, I realize how stressful and hectic it can be to plan a wedding even with the professional help of a wedding planner. Ultimately it is you the bride in most cases who will be responsible for coordinating venues, invitations, guest list, and most importantly finding the perfect dress.

Lately I have been in contact with many brides. And I love hearing each one tell me about the man of their dreams, the hopes and wishes they have always had for their big day. And I love being a part of completing that fairy tale. After all, we all were once little girls, and we all dreamed about finding our one true love, our own prince charming. Even though we are a wedding vendor, I don't like to think of my clients as a business transaction, your wedding is just as important to me as it is to you!

I want it to be a day you always remember, as you dreamed it would be. At URBAN BOMBSHELL we treat your big day, as if it were our own. Its our job to make you happy, and we strive to bring our clients the best!

Bridal Beauty

All weddings are special, but your big day will be one of the most important days of your life. A day that you have thought about since you were a little girl, and throughout your life turning into a beautiful woman. Now that you have found your Prince Charming, its time to think about bridal beauty.

Most brides choose to have a professional makeup artist assist them on their special day to help relieve stress, and make that day that much more perfect. But its not to say that you can not achieve the perfect look yourself.

I think the most important step to having a flawless look on your wedding day is proper health, nutrition and a suitable skin care regimen. Your skin is like a blank canvas, you want your skin to moisturized, soft, and flawless. Also think about what type of look you want for your wedding - soft and natural, dramatic and bold, elegant, or for some wild and fun.

My favorite products and tips to share with you beautiful brides are:

1) Smashbox Photofinish Primer - this product applied to clean, moisturized skin, before foundation. And helps to maintain your look all day.

2) False Eyelashes - a must have, a guaranteed way to make your eyes pop. After all, all eyes are on you!

3) Lip Gloss - play around with different colors, and glosses to see which ones you love, and last throughout the day.

4) Do not be afraid to try out a few different makeup artists, its your day you should have an artist that understands your vision.

5) Research what you want, certain looks you like, colors, etc this way you have the best knowledge of the look you want for your wedding.

6) Remember you can only have your eyes or your lips as a focal point, not both.

You’ll want to feel like a million dollars on your big day and remember URBAN BOMBSHELL Makeup Artistry is here to help by creating a natural, radiant look.
