Sista Sista!

Whether you're the star of the show or running the show; wedding day is the time to shine bright!

For this bridal look:

I used Kat Von D's 'Saint' palette, Ardell 'Demi Wispies' cut in half and used as flares, mascara used was Maybelline Colossal Lashes Glam Black waterproof, and for the brow I used Lancome's Le Crayon Poudre in 'Taupe'. On the lips: Urban decay 24-h Lip in 'Liar' with MAC cream sheen lipglass in 'Boy Bait'
For contouring and blush I used BH cosmetics 'Contour & Blush Palette'
 

For the Maid of Honor below: 

Lashes;I used Ardell Demi wispies (the full strip). For the brows I used Makeup Forever waterproof Aqua Brow in 'Ash', lid was a mix of diferent purples from my BH Cosmetics 88 color palette, and MAC Shroom for highlighting. Lips, contouring and mascara same as bride.
 
Last two finishing touches for each was MAC Mineralize Skin Finish in Lightscapade for that candlelit glow, and set it all with Urban Decay's All Nighter setting spray.

Congratulations Melissa & Nick!

Freakin' Weekend

HAPPY MONDAY

Busy busy weekend, woof! Fun for sure! It seems like Mondays are my update days for Makeup Mermaid, So here is what I did this weekend!!!

Saturday I worked with Jill from The Beauty Lounge! We had a wedding up near Tilton, NH. I did the Brides makeup, two bridesmaids, and the mother of the groom.
We had a blast with our hair and makeup marathon and everyone looked beautiful!! Here is the beautiful bride:

Saturday night was our housemates band's very first show!! They played very well, every song was extremely familiar to Dave and I because we hear them practice almost daily. There was a good turnout with the crowd too! Their bands name is BLACKOUT you can listen to them HERE<---
I hadn't been to a show in years & I haven't gone out past 9:00pm in months haha. Definitely a selfie worthy night on account of me being so wild, crazy, and rebellious out past my bedtime.
 
On Sunday, I started my day in Nashua for a bridal trial. Its so weird driving past my highschool & old stomping grounds in general. I was excited for this trial mostly because I was pumped to play up the Brides big big blue eyes! She looked gorgeous, I am so happy for her and excited for her big day. This is the second bride this summer that I've met with one of those looooong term relationships and are finally tying the knot! So cool to me.
After my final makeup appointment Sunday afternoon, it was finally weekend time for me! I got to enjoy some time with my dog, Lady. We made puppy treats and went shopping. I love spoiling my pup. She's too cute not to. I later made a yummy dinner for boyfriend and I. (with Lady's help of course)
All in all a super busy yet fun weekend! I am looking forward to this upcoming Saturday for some family time. I've been so busy we haven't had much of that this summer.
