My Brides

When I decided to become a make up artist, I told my self that I will enter the world of weddings (not me as always the bride, but the MUA - make up artist). Bridal make up may look simple and very natural, but for make up artists, its one of the most difficult look to make. Why, because it's more technical and more precise. A bride should be the "MOST" beautiful on her wedding day. So here are some pictures of the brides of Make Up by XY.

Project Make up: Gothic

After months of not being able to do make up for photoshoots... I was invited by Jake Ryan (from Model Mayhem) to be their make up artist for one of their shoots. He was actually inviting me since last year but because of me being a super sensitive pregnant mommy, i turned him down (i think I said "no" to him twice). But since I'm back in the make up world and is ready to do shoots again, I accepted his invitation. When we we're texting as to what concept I wanted to do, he just said he wants something Avant Garde, I immediately answered him "Let's do Bridal Goth" However, due to limited props, especially the black wedding gown, we end up doing a gothic look instead. So without saying more... i present to you my work... XOXO
