Makeup by Eloise Mae

A bridal encounter I’ll remember forever ✨

Amy was the sweetest soul, and I absolutely loved getting to know her 🫶🏼

An Irish girl, living in Dubai, tying the knot in London… and ❌NO TRIAL❌ That meant this consultation wasn’t just important - it was everything.

We covered every little detail imaginable. The inspiration behind her look, how she wanted to feel, what she loved, what she didn’t, and all the tiny things that make a bridal look feel completely you. Trying to squeeze a 20 minute consultation into a 3 minute reel was no easy task… your gal is THOROUGH 😅

I pride myself on asking the right questions and, more importantly, really listening. I want every bride to feel seen, heard and completely understood🤌🏼

And judging by that reaction… I’d say we nailed it 🥹🫶🏼

Stay tuned for her hair consultation and reveal by 🎀

Just a good old before & after of my stunning bride Emily✨ WHAT👏🏼A👏🏼BRIDE👏🏼

The brief? GLOWING.🌟

Fresh skin, soft definition, radiant from every angle, and still completely her.

Safe to say I was obsessed with this one 🤍

I am truly obsessed with all of my brides, so expect plenty of running commentary, happy squeals, and the occasional sound effect from behind the camera 😂

Zoe and I are notoriously pap-happy when it comes to our brides, so future brides, consider this your warning… if you hate having your photo taken, you might want to start practising now 🤪📸

P.S. Alicia should genuinely be a model. She is SO photogenic, and just knew how to move😍

Beautiful before, beautiful after 🫶🏼

She sat down brushing off every compliment… but left seeing what everyone else already could ✨

One of my favourite parts of doing makeup is watching that shift happen in real time - when doubt softens and confidence quietly steps in. By the end, there was a sparkle in her eye that said everything 🤍

Brides, save this for your MOB & MOG who are feeling a little nervous about having their makeup done 😍

Truth is, winged liner used to be the thing I avoided at all costs. I’d literally talk clients out of it because I didn’t feel confident doing it🥴

Then 3 years ago, I decided to flip the script — I made it my mission to do a wing on (almost) every client. No shortcuts, just repetition, patience and slowly improving.

And now? It’s kinda my thing🩷

My top 3 winged liner tips:

1. Sketch first, then commit💪🏼

Map the wing out with shadow before going in with gel — it takes the pressure off and helps you get the shape right. I couldn’t live without Brown Gel Liner, Duraline & 210 Liner Brush

2. Tightline. Every. Single. Time.👏🏼

Upper waterline is a must for me — it deepens the lash line and makes sure there are zero gaps (my biggest pet peeve)

3. Duraline is my secret weapon😮‍💨🤌🏼

A drop of Inglot Duraline makes such a difference — easier application, smoother glide. You can also use it as an eraser to tidy up or sharpen the tip if needed… thank me later😜
