We Met in a Bar

make me up

I am gonna be honest with you… I don’t know how to do my makeup. Sure, I can put foundation, powder and mascara on like the rest of you. But blending shadows? Liquid Liner? Blush? Lipstick? This lack of girlyness leads to two things: 1. I will not be doing my own makeup for the wedding and 2. my makeup will need to look natural but turned up a notch for the big day. I want to look like myself on my big day. Maybe something like this:

You and me both! Honestly, I thought I was the only one clueless about that stuff. There aren’t too many make-up artists here in Steamboat, so I’m on my own. I am going to make an appointment at a cosmetics counter when I’m home to see what they suggest for colors and looks though.

Are you at all as horrified as me at the prices to get your make-up done in L.A./O.C.? I seriously had this lady tell me she charges close to $200 for a trial! A TRIAL?! I’m on the hunt for good pros…I’ll keep you posted.

Oops, I just saw your note about having a friend do your make-up. That’s awesome!!
