How to Contour the Face with Makeup: Tips & Chart

This amazing chart was shared with me by Makeup Artist, Para-Medical Aesthetician & owner of Carabella Cosmetic & Skincare, Jennifer Charm.
I tend to do makeup intuitively, rather than follow strict rules of makeup application. But I tried it this week and it worked! I have a Heart Shaped face and it did make my cheekbones stand out more.
With this contour face chart you can learn how to contour your face if it is a Round Face, Square Face, Oval Face or Heart Face. So try it at home!

Hollywood Wedding: Vintage Glamour meets Rock n' Roll

I am excited to share these wedding pics of Ariel's wedding! It was in November 2012 at SBE's Redbury Hotel in Hollywood, CA. I love this building, if it were apartments I would move in! Has a great NY feel and design...perfect for small or intimate weddings. Anyway, I don't get bride's like Ariel often. She is the referral of the sister of a former bride...and by the end of 2013 I will have done all their weddings! I love it!
I was excited to post about this "Alternative Bride" who showed off her tattoos and wasn't exactly "Hipster."She just had great independent style. It had been a while since I did fingerwaves but the method just came right to me. Ariel isn't an everyday makeup user but she easily pulled off this smokey eye and bold lip. As you can see there is a lot of red happening here: red lips, red walls, dresses, etc. I think it's the color of their passion. I hope you enjoy these few photos from her big day!
