Bridal trials for our 2026 brides are in full swing 🤍

The Secret to a Flawless Bridal Glow:

When our bride Shanna sat in our chair on her wedding morning, her skin was glowing—and that was no accident!

Here’s how she prepped her skin to perfection for her big day:

She focused on hydration & exfoliation months in advance, sticking to a consistent skincare routine to ensure a smooth, radiant base.

The morning of her wedding, she cleansed her skin and applied (and re-applied!) a high-quality moisturizer to keep her skin fresh and plump before makeup.

Once she sat in my chair, I spent time prepping her skin with my go-to hydrating moisturizer and a glowy gel base that ensures makeup sits beautifully while giving that soft, lit-from-within glow.

Bridal makeup is a collaboration between you and your artist—your prep before the wedding is just as important as the work we do on the wedding day.

Give your skin the love it deserves, and your makeup will look even better because of it!

Filing this as “one of our favourite looks ever” 👀

Shoot for earlier this week.

Words used to describe Hannah’s look: soft, bronzed, glowy, natural, radiant.

HOW TO ASK FOR THIS LOOK:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
· Glowy, radiant skin
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
· A monochromatic pink look for your eyes, blush and lips
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
· Body glow on your chest and shoulders
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
· a soft half-up style with curtain bangs

Trying to decide on your bridal look can feel overwhelming—especially if you’re a 2025 bride with your trial coming up soon!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Here are a few tips to help make the decisions easier:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Look for inspo photos of brides or models with similar hair color, skin tone, and features as you. This gives you a much clearer idea of how a look might suit you!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Consider your dress style, wedding theme, and venue vibe. Your beauty look should complement or match the overall feel of your day.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Think about what feels like you. If you’re a ponytail-everyday kind of woman, super dramatic Hollywood waves might not feel authentic.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Choose a look you’ll love in 10, 20, or even 50 years. Timeless beauty always wins.

In need of some help!

I have two hairstyling students completing their final exam with us tomorrow (Thursday, Oct 31st) and we need hair models for them to showcase their work on!

It is only bridal styling (no cut or colour) and we would need 1 hour of your time in exchange for a free hairstyle (think curls or low bun).

Appointments are in Downtown Kamloops on Victoria St and we need models with at least medium length hair (shoulders or longer).

Timeslots needed are:

9:15am - 2 people
10:30am - 2 people
12:00pm - 2 people
1:15pm - 1 person

Thank you so much in advance!!
