Hello, everyone welcome back to my channel, i'm so excited for today's video. I went to machias beauty to get my hair and makeup trial done for my wedding and it was such an amazing experience. I'M excited to share my journey. I also had you guys, send in questions on instagram, so if you're not following me, there definitely do and they did a wonderful job of answering all of your wedding day, makeup questions and hair questions. So i hope you guys enjoy this video. So how do you make wedding makeup last without it sweating off? Okay? Well, you don't sweat, no uh, it's honestly! The products, the products that we use are for longevity purposes. Um, you know cater to that, because, if you're using a product, that's not gon na like dry dry down on the skin, it won't stick. So, okay, a lot of just uh products that last long dry down to the skin, also um setting the makeup. What do you mean by dry down to the skin, just like a dryer, a drying, a little? No, i'm not drying, but you know like when you put like something on your hand like how nice it's doing here if we were to let it sit on her hand, it'll remain on her hand, and then, if you like do this, then it won't move so That that dries down - that's okay, okay, um, estee, lauder um. I know uh. We use a lot of like estee lauder. We use a lot of tarte shape tape, um the nars one is nice, but it does move if you don't set it. So that's another trick. They want to oh that's cool, so you can like test them on your hands. Mm-Hmm yep! That'S what i do when i'm at the stores like if i'm at old, store, sephora i'll like try a foundation and then i'll walk around with it on my hand and then, when i'm done, when i'm shopping around i'll, like swipe it and see. If it moves and if it moves, then it then i don't want it, because it's not going to stick later on all right best way to cover a breakout that pops up the morning up pop it pop it. Okay, i always ask my bites to pop it. Oh wow, okay um, just because if it's only if it's a white head, okay um - that just kind of helps reduce like if she happened to like do this and then there's blood later on. So i normally just and you'll want to put like a warm hot towel on it before popping it. That way, you just like do a little pressure on the breakout and then it'll just light right out. Okay and then you just cover it with like, and then we cover yep and then we cover it once it like dries. That'S the first thing. I'Ll probably have them do is i'll have them. You know pop their pimples and get ready and you'll want to use. You'Ll want to color correct it. If it's red, you want to go straight in there with your concealer okay and you use green on red right um. We so you can use like tart shape tape, we'll probably use like if it's red, we'll probably use like tan sand or medium those have like yellow orange undertones and that just cancels it right out and then we'll go back in there once it dries down. We'Ll go back in there with like a brighter color. My hair is long and heavy, so my curls always fall out any tips, so she'll need waves in the hair versus actual curl, okay um, usually when it's a wave in the hair they're able to keep the wave because the hair is heavy, so it just it Sits on the way versus curls, where they just fall. Does that make sense yeah? Well, you can do it. What do you have a curling iron um? I have a wand. Okay wands are nice, but they i feel like they. Those are good for, like maybe these kind of curls, because you're just wrapping it and then letting it go with the curling iron. You have actual tension in the hair yeah, so you can choose that route or you can use a flat iron, any prep. You would recommend on face or hair before styling, that the bride can do yeah. Another person asks if they should have their hair freshly washed. Yes, yes, and yes, okay, so for the skin, always exfoliate before. Okay, before like a good nice exfoliating like double, cleanse, exfoliate moisturize, and then you can put your prepping products such as, like your primer, your mattifying stuff, anything that you would use you know, okay, so definitely yes to that, and definitely yes to clean hair, clean hair, Um disclaimer, though some people know their hair more than others. So if they say like, oh, my hair works. It curls better, like on second day yeah, and that's fine. Okay, do you like when they have it? The natural texture you put like i blew mine out natural texture, okay, because it kind of it helps us um one, for example like if you came in here, and you straightened your hair the night before right, yeah and you're like i want. I want these really like nice beachy waves. Well, what will happen is it'll stay and then once you leave, because you straightened your hair, it's gon na fall. Okay, so it's always best to come in with like your own natural texture. So that way, we kind of know what we need to do to get you to that desired. Look! Okay! So next time i should come in air dry yeah, just like air dry, okay yeah! I guess i'm blessed that my hair will still curl after i blow it out yeah and you have some. You have some um dimension and texture in your hair because of like the coloring. That'S also something brides can take into consideration um if they want some dimension in the hair, if their hair doesn't hold your curl they'll want to maybe either look into extensions, okay, or they can add some like balayage to their hair. Okay, what foundation lasts all day for weddings? Okay depends on the skin type. I would say oily um, some double wear estee lauder for dryer skin. You can always do like a face neck and body. There'S a dior face and body. How do i make my foundation? Not look cakey, i need to let the foundation dry down dry down. Do you know how i keep saying dry out, yeah, it's like so important so before you would put like anything else on you, let your foundation dry down. So i always give this like analogy when you start putting water in pancake mix. You know how it's like super thick super like you got ta keep any water yeah! It'S like that! Okay! So if you add powder to your wet makeup, it's gon na get cakey yeah, don't want that, but we could add some chocolate chips. Yes, we can, how do you guys determine what style of hair and makeup will fit the bride, or do you usually let the bride? You know, like pick um, we ask for like inspiration just because we want to see what attracts the bright um a lot of times. We are just catering to like the eye, shape the face, shape the lips um, the hair type yeah. You know everything is taken into consideration: we're not just the dress, yep, the dress. Absolutely so, if you have like a higher neck up, those are always nice to kind of bring up like everything but yeah you're. Having like a strapless dress, you can always choose to do like a down. Do you can always just do a lower like uh romantic side updo? Do you think my hairstyle could give us my dress? I would definitely say so. It'S more on the buttholier side. Products are good that stay if you're crying so the same as long as you're setting your makeup and you want to you - want to dab and not swipe if you're going to cry what about mascara or do your guys's eyelashes stay pretty well yeah. So those stay really well. The mascara that you want to use is waterproof, of course, um we like using the mac one we like using uh. What'S the one by two face better than better than sex, right, that one's really good does the type of lash glue you use matter? Um? Yes, it does. It definitely does. Is the other ones no, but they're the lashes they have individuals. Is it hard for people to learn how to use your lashes, the individual ones like do you have tips for putting those on, because i can definitely link those yeah, so those are you'll have to practice. Definitely breakfast yeah just because once you get the hang of it, it's like so easy. Do you guys have any educational videos on lash application? We do perfect, we do yeah, and i know if you use those uh anissa uses a mirror to kind of help. Her put them on and then why do you recommend that um, your guys's lashes over first people yeah, so because we're so customized here um everything that we do is catered to like again to bring out your features um, so individual lashes give us that ability to Give you the customized eyelash versus if we just popped on like a strip lash, it won't give you the same effect. It'Ll just end up being like yeah. I feel like i've tried lashes and it makes my eyes look tired or like them down right, yeah, awesome. So we'll have their lashes linked in the description if anyone's interested any tips for making makeup look good in person and in photos. She feels like this is tough blend blend blend? That'S it do you think, for i i know for like dancing. They say to like dress up your makeup more and make it more intense for because, like cameras and stuff will wash it out, do you guys stick to that or you yes or no? Will you take into consideration the photographer videographer that you're using because their style? Yes will also help translate like. If you had someone who was more on the airier side yeah, then we would have probably added probably a little more just because the plug ended blow blowing out. You know yeah, but like because you're, a videographer and photographer she's more in the warmer she's, more true to color, then you're okay, to stay within your. What would you say sets the bridal look apart from a traditional glamour, everyday makeup, good question. I i'd like to say what sets apart bridal, i think every day, you're you're not really focusing on. Like the thing that's going to bring out your features, you're kind of just like applying right, because you get through the day. So i think bridal makeup is is apart from everyday makeup, because we're now we're now taking that makeup and placing it in the right places and actually like with intensity yeah like intentionally right, bringing out their features exactly what would look good so interesting just over time, Do you get good at like looking at someone's, face, shape and eye shape and just knowing yeah? I was just talking about this with uh one of my clients yesterday how how some artists, just kind of only do like one look on that person and then move it on to the next person like everyone is different, so everyone like needs something different right and So i think uh, we've kind of we take that into consideration a lot yeah, not everyone deserves like the same look. Yeah needs to be customized yeah. What'S one thing like you always customize to each person like the eye? Look or contour? Definitely every like everything. Yeah we're pretty skin focused we're eyelash, focus, we're lip focus and eyebrow focus. Yeah um, i would say those are the things that we're really like passionate about when we're trying to bring out the best in someone okay, so you guys invented your own light for makeup. Why do you guys use it? Okay, so one because we are in different settings all the time so we're in hotel rooms we're in airbnbs uh. We don't have access to. Sometimes we don't have access to natural lighting, yeah and so, with our light, you're able to get that either the golden hour look or just like daytime look at any time right, yeah. We also work pretty early in the morning sometimes, and so that just kind of helps us get. The nice perfect photo with the right light in in any setting yeah. You know, because you can change the temperature on it. Uh-Huh, that's awesome, so it goes from cool tones to warm tones and um. It can go really really bright or really really low. Would you just recommend that for like having for photos or is it helpful when people are getting ready? It'S both yeah. It'S like super versatile for putting in the veil any tips to help it like stay in or placement of it yep. So it just depends on your veil right so most times the veil is made for it to sit right at the round of the head. Okay, so that's why it sits normally like right in the middle, because that's where the head, you know basically runs off, i feel, like most people, think it goes lower, but it's not higher yeah, because if you did put it lower right, for example, if you had A cathedral which is nice and long kind of like you're right, it's kind of heavy at the end. So guess what? If you put it down here, it falls. You can't see it so when you have it on the crown, it naturally opens up and then now exactly yes, gotcha, okay and then do you guys use like bobby pins in it to help it um not most times, because it has a little comb. But if we see that it it is going to maybe fall out, then we normally put in somebody. I feel like every time i have tried on a veil. It doesn't feel like secure, really, maybe there's just a technique to put it in. I saw one lady, like kind of made a little s motion as she put it in mm-hmm yeah. You have to like wiggle it in the hair. Okay and most times, there's like back combing in the hair, which will help it'll help it you know, trials are are for both. Obviously right gives you a chance to give you a chance to obviously meet your artists get to vibe with them um. It also helps us determine the best look for you like as a bride. Right yeah gives us a chance to get to know who you are and give you like that that, like look that you're, that you deserve that, and it just helps us with like knowing how the um, how stuff is staying on your skin, how everything is kind Of like working yeah and that way, we can give you recommendations. If we have to do you ever like do a hairstyle and then they're like oh wait. This wasn't what i thought it was gon na look like and then you have to oh yeah trials. We do multiple hairstyles, especially if they're a look that maybe they're wanting, but we feel it it won't work because of like. Maybe they have like not a lot of hair or they just you know a lot of circumstances where we have to. Maybe you can't um go a different exactly and you know we don't want to be like yeah. Let'S do it and then yeah. We can't, oh all right guys. That is it for today's video. Let me know what you guys think of my wedding day, makeup and hair. Look i am so excited.
