Good makeup starts with balanced skin, not overloaded skin… something I learned the hard way 😶‍🌫️

Too many products create a slippery mess. Makeup stops gripping properly, the skin starts sweating through layers, and everything becomes harder for both the bride and the MUA.

These are the products I actually trust to prep the skin without overdoing it:

Sensibio —— To make sure the skin is REALLY clean… I love my brides but I don’t trust anyone when they say they removed all their makeup lol.

Creamy eye treatment? Perfect. No notes.

Water Powder Serum —— Witchcraft for oily queens and tropical weddings. The learning curve is letting it dry for a couple minutes.

Milk Power Grip (or the ELF dupe lol) —— Only when I need makeup to survive a marathon wedding day. Don’t mix it with the Water Powder though.

Glazing Milk —— Probably the product I use the most in my kit, if I have an oily bride that’s the only thing I’m using to hydrate + the eye treatment. If you have any dry patches, redness or want to dilute a foundation this is the product!

Lait Crème —— Is the OG for a reason, hydrates beautifully without making the skin feel heavy or weird.

Plush Puddin —— WAY better than the Laneige one and nobody can convince me otherwise.

Spray Serum —— Amazing whenever the skin needs life again after too much powder. I would avoid it on oily queens though… or at least keep it away from the T-zone and only spray the cheekbones.

Not every bride wants full glam… some just want to feel like themselves, just a little more elevated.

Lauren was one of them.

This kind of makeup is all about subtlety, soft skin, light, and balance. Nothing heavy, nothing forced.

If you’re curious, swipe to see what I used on her!

No es para todas…Es para quienes reconocen el valor artístico detrás de cada detalle ☁️ estar fully booked no significa nada si no estás alineada con tus clientas!
