Makeup for mum, the maid of honour and loved ones
On this day, it is not only the bride who should look beautiful. I create makeup for mum, the maid of honour and loved ones to be cohesive with you and the whole styling of the wedding.
The three things I hear most often
Mothers of the bride and bridesmaids usually sit down with the same words:
- “please, nothing too heavy”
- “I would like to hide the tiredness, the last weeks have been intense”
- “I will definitely cry, will it hold?”
These are not small worries. This is the day they will stand in photographs next to their daughter or their friend, and they want to look like themselves, only rested.
How I work with mature skin
Thin layers instead of heavy foundation. I build coverage only where it is needed, so nothing settles into fine lines.
A longer skincare step before makeup. Before the foundation I prepare the skin: hydration, a moment of massage, calm. That step decides whether the makeup still looks fresh in the evening.
Setting made for tears and heat. The emotion is certain, the heat often too.
Sometimes the wedding day writes its own script
At one wedding the bride's grandmother arrived with a large bruise under her eye. She had fallen the day before. She sat down embarrassed. I wrapped her in kind words and said only: I will cover everything, you will look beautiful, I just need a moment.
The bride cared about her as much as I did. She wrote under the video that her grandmother had gone through a transformation, and that her smile was worth everything.
For me this is the heart of this work. Every woman deserves to look in the mirror on that day and see herself beautiful. At any age, and whatever happened the day before.
How it works in practice
I usually work with mothers and bridesmaids on the same morning, together with the bride, at the hotel or at home, also abroad. Additional people should be mentioned when booking, because the number of people sets the starting time and the whole morning schedule.
A trial for the mother or bridesmaid is possible, but not required.
If you would like the mother or the bridesmaid to have that calm morning too, write to me on WhatsApp. I reply personally.
