Bridal Make-Up, Supercars and Forth FM’s Arlene Stuart!

It all started out when I was approached to do the make-up for a fashion show at the beautiful Carberry Tower’s wedding fair. The fashion show itself was hosted by none other than the very lovely Arlene Stuart from Forth FM.
 
It was such good fun to be part of the show, working alongside some really great wedding suppliers such as Sophia Grace Couture and Chris Allan Photography. 

The Carberry Tower itself is the perfect fairy tale wedding venue.

​It is set in the heart of East Lothian and just off the A1 motorway.

Its beautiful buildings stand within a 35 acre estate of private parkland, and is certainly worth a wee visit by engaged couples when looking for a wedding venue.

What was the inspiration for the fashion show make-up?

I had four lovely models to work with, who were all showcasing bridal dresses. So I decided to go with four very different bridal looks to complement both the models and the beautiful dresses, with the aim of helping to inspire the lovely brides-to-be who were attending the fashion show.
 
For our first model, Suzanne, I created a classic vintage look with a subtle pinky brown eye with eyeliner and false lashes, coupled with a dark berry lip.  This look was completed with a dewy finish to the skin, to help give Suzanne’s skin a beautiful, fresh, youthful glow.
​

For our second model, Lorna, I created a pale gold and red brown eye, with an orange red
matte lip. This look was complemented by a fresh, dewy finish to skin.
​

For our third model, Hannah (model to the left in the image below), we decided to go with a warm gold and brown blended eye with a pale pink lip. This was completed by a matte finish to the skin.
 
For our fourth model, Lyndi (model to the right in the image below), we went with a smokey coral and chocolate brown eye with eyeliner and false lashes. This look was completed with a pale coral lip and glowing, dewy skin.

Here are a few images of our four gorgeous models in some beautiful bridal and bridesmaid gowns from Sophia Grace Couture, whilst sporting classic wedding make-up looks.

Check out those amazing super cars, which I'm sure you'll agree, completed the looks beautifully! :)
