The entire palette is geared toward a muted dusty rose color with pops of burgundy and gold throughout! This palette also features two cream shades that can be used as a base or on their own. I love using this palette for a spring bride to create a really effortless soft glow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/91b130aa-5269-4f70-bbcf-9e62029a44cd/IMG_2150.jpeg Blog - Must have Bridal Eyeshadow Palettes from a Pro MUA - Make it stand out Everyone lost their minds over this palette and honestly, rightfully so! It out performs many other palettes with similar color combos on the market and nothing Mario does, could be bad, obvi! The major selling property for me is the shimmers. They almost act as a glittery eyeshadow topper to enhance the shimmers on the eye already. I like to use these to achieve my glossy lid effect without using gloss! They create a beautiful glimmering glass like effect!! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/a97142ab-6ca8-4cb5-b2ef-6a8b96fa3cd8/IMG_2151.jpeg Blog - Must have Bridal Eyeshadow Palettes from a Pro MUA - Make it stand out This palette’s color story is quite unique in which it features gorgeous pale skin tone shades perfect for blending out the crease to a very pigmented pastel lilac, olive green and rust shade. The shimmers are my favorite part though; there are 7 multi dimensional metallic shades that are to die for. My favorite shade for brides are Lily (a peach + yellow gold metallic shift) and Isle (a champagne + white gold combo). These make the perfect shadow for glimmering eyes! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/90d287c0-8bc9-4e65-9955-67c393fd87f6/IMG_2146.jpg Blog - Must have Bridal Eyeshadow Palettes from a Pro MUA - Make it stand out This palette was a game changer for my makeup game! I was starting to really want cool tone shades that worked well for bridal, not just your typical grey and black. I wanted muted chocolate browns and taupey greys. This palette did just that! I ran and added to my cart as fast as I could! It really allows you to sculpt out the eyes for that ulta glam look and features the perfect cool tone nude shades for any skin tone! Big fan! Like its rosy toned older sister, this palette features two cream shades that can act as a base for the powder shadows or lie on their own for a grungy vibe. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/32fec3f7-288e-44db-a9eb-64cbdc6d1437/IMG_2149.jpeg Blog - Must have Bridal Eyeshadow Palettes from a Pro MUA - Make it stand out Another good one by Mario Dedivanovic, Kim Kardashians beloved makeup artist! This palette features some of my favorite and go-to matte shades when creating any bridal look! Most of the shades have warm undertones which is why I love using it in conjunction with the Patrick Ta matte palette! With both of these palettes on hand, there isn’t a single look I can’t create! Thank you so much for reading! I love sharing what products I use to create such beautiful and flawless makeup. I believe that makeup should be accessible to everyone, no gatekeeping around here! Have you tried these palettes?

This look for the L’Agence show was created using Stila Cosmetics, one of my favorite brands to use on my clients. I love the staying power and the versatility of their products. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/4f16fba9-1283-44d9-be01-5e1a423f0898/IMG_9158.jpeg Blog - My Favorite NYFW Makeup Looks - Make it stand out I love this look— the blush so effortlessly blends into the undereye and is picked up again at the top of the lid into the brow. The yellow inner corner perfectly highlights the blending of the blue and green shadow. Every piece of this look is so intentional yet playful and fun! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/13cbd31f-9947-4e23-bfec-6963860b52ba/IMG_9163.jpeg Blog - My Favorite NYFW Makeup Looks - Make it stand out This neutral look lets the hair have its moment while still making her look like an absolute goddess. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/e12153c6-bb47-494d-b615-817805d12e4a/IMG_9161.jpeg Blog - My Favorite NYFW Makeup Looks - Make it stand out This taupey monochromatic look is effortlessly pulled together by the ethereal eyes and the dirty nude brown lip.

She is wearing the makeup, the look isn’t wearing her. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/6b62fcdb-296c-4f7d-b77e-dd57e264347c/IMG_9164.jpeg Blog - My Favorite NYFW Makeup Looks - Make it stand out Glitter lids were all the rage this year at NYFW.

They are foiled pressed shadows that give off a gorgeous metallic sheen from any angle. I love the range of colors they have from a champagne gold to a vivid olive green color. The Ulta shadows are equally as vivid, however, they only have three shades (gold, rose gold, and pink) to choose from. For the price, they pack an extra shiny punch that I just can’t pass up. I use these shadows on almost all of my brides! https://www.kelseajmua.com/blog/bridal-dos-amp-donts-from-a-professional-makeup-artist monthly 0.5 2023-03-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/f3cf8247-653f-47bb-994b-676c16ad0212/IMG_5352.jpeg Blog - Bridal Do’s & Don’ts from a Professional Makeup Artist - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/bb530530-f6f5-4f0e-bb55-3b3b5313d78e/IMG_5148.jpg Blog - Bridal Do’s & Don’ts from a Professional Makeup Artist - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.kelseajmua.com/blog/feb-favs monthly 0.5 2023-02-28 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/a9143a84-4e30-4277-87f7-46511c2de4ee/Screen+Shot+2023-02-28+at+11.28.30+AM.png Blog - February Favs - Make it stand out Good Molecules Yerba Mate Eye Cream. $6 I purchased this at the beginning of the month and have been using it non-stop, I bought a second one for my clients. When I need to rapid de-puff and de-bag on wedding days I immediately reach for this to do the trick. A little goes a long way and typically I let it sink into the skin for a few minutes before going on top of it with any other products. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/ea8cef8c-0164-418c-b989-084769a3d5c0/Screen+Shot+2023-02-28+at+11.24.49+AM.png Blog - February Favs - Make it stand out Swake Cosmetics Sweat-proof Foundation. $49 This is not a new product to me but it is one that has made its way into my kit and on the faces of many, many, of my brides. We’ve all been a wedding where we got ready, did our hair, our makeup, and put on a fancy dress— but the wedding was in the south in the summer. So you can guess what a sweaty mess you’ll be by the end of it, and what was even the point of putting makeup on now? I have found a solution in Swake. A long-lasting, light and airy feeling of sweat-proof foundation that will leave you feeling like the best summer version of yourself. This cosmetics line, founded by fellow UGA alum, has made itself known in the athletic sphere and now the bridal world as well, and I cant wait to see where they grow! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/5705e0b0-bf9b-470d-bbb1-fb4657511215/IMG_4361.jpeg Blog - February Favs - Make it stand out Makeup By Mario Master Mattes Palette. $50 Now, this isn’t a new product and it’s filled with what looks like ordinary neutral matte eyeshadows. But the way it performs on the skin is revolutionary. The formulas are creamy but not too spreadable and blend out like a dream. This has been the base of all of my looks recently, then topping them with some shimmer. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/267f97e7-6818-4fa4-a0b9-d0f8b3a5da6e/Screen+Shot+2023-02-28+at+11.22.08+AM.png Blog - February Favs - Make it stand out Laura Mercier Shimmer Light Powder. $43 I wont sugar coat it and say that I immediately loved this product right off the bat. It definitely took some work with using different application techniques and finding which skin type and tone worked best with this. Once figuring out how I liked to use it best, it quickly became one of my go-to staples in my kit. This products performs the best applied lightly on the high points of the face. It is a little too sparkly for under eye setting, in my humble opinion. But makeup is meant to be fun and explored with, so if you have tried this please let me know how you love to use it! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/7bdaefef-092e-41a5-acfe-6e764ffc9448/Screen+Shot+2023-02-28+at+11.41.17+AM.png Blog - February Favs - Make it stand out PawPaw Beauty Sponges. $10 If you are looking for the softest, squishiest, beauty sponge of them all for an extremely affordable price, then look no further. These little pink sponges come from Amazon in a 6 pack and the quality is insane. When dampened they grow to an enormous size and are perfectly shaped for melting together concealer and foundation. https://www.kelseajmua.com/blog/a-little-about-me monthly 0.5 2022-11-08 https://www.kelseajmua.com/blog/top-5-favorite-face-brushes monthly 0.5 2022-11-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/9bfb7a4d-1671-4532-b51c-d991cd154fd1/Screen+Shot+2022-11-04+at+4.33.20+PM.png Blog - Top 5: Favorite Face Brushes - Make it stand out For a smooth and creaseless under eye I need a concealer brush that works well with not only the concealer product but all the other base products as well.

This brush changes the glow game and creates the most iconic and blinding glow with any highlight. Switching to a tapered brush to apply highlight instead of a fan brush will change the way the pigment is deposited onto the face. Using a sweeping motion this brush gently coats the high points of the cheek leaving the ultimate glow. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/6345b5bc8b8fa469392aaafc/2b0cfcc3-254f-4c4f-bab8-e4a05ccb08ce/Screen+Shot+2022-11-04+at+4.06.42+PM.png Blog - Top 5: Favorite Face Brushes - Make it stand out The Sigma F47 Multitasker Brush is just that.
