Hair and Makeup! These two things had me staying awake all night at one stage.
I remember so clearly when the sleepless nights started happening. That day started off with a drive to Bondi where I was booked in for a makeup trial.
To make matters worse, It was a stinking hot day, so my skin was all sweaty by the time we arrived at the destination and battling traffic to get there hadn’t done much to improve my already crabby mood
The makeup artist did a great job on my face, so what I experienced next was what influenced our decision to bring Martha Mok (D’Makeupstation) on board
I won’t mention the name of the first artist as she like I said did a great job, but I guess the products just weren’t as great as the artist was
Looking good is one thing, but anhour after I’d left Bondi, I was already wiping away black smudges under my eyes and my face was just one oily mess
The rest of the night was just a constant trip to the bathroom to cleanup more eyeliner smudges and the foundation seemed to have all disappeared
My night out was a total of about 4 hours of eating, drinking and CONSTANT makeup touch-up breaks.
Now makeup and how to apply it is NOT my forte, so this was a horrible feeling for me.
How often would I need to go to the bathroom to fix it up and would the smudges show up in most of our wedding pictures if this is what was in store for us?
I heard about Martha from a girlfriend who worked with me and one standout service Martha offers is her ALL DAY SERVICE!
She’s great at the whole “natural” look and was awesome when it came to creating 4 different hairstyles for me to wear throughout the day
