North Carolina Makeup Artist – Sandy Guerriere
As your ‘eco-friendly’ makeup artist it’s my desire to duplicate your “Vision of Beauty”… for every occasion.
Are you a future bride who wants her makeup to be ’Bride Natural’ for timeless portraits or are you a woman who wants the ’Glam’ look for a special holiday party? Well…I’m here to beautifully define and achieve that vision for you.
The 2010 makeup trend has a focus on ”soft, natural, and romantic looks”…this includes an array of colors in neutrals for eyes, lips and blush.
I like to use Avasiare makeup, it’s eco-friendly and gives excellent coverage. The foundation can be used everyday as well as for Photography or Stage. In the photo above I’m wearing ”Nude ” in their Flawless Foundation line. http://www.avasiare.com/

Contact: Photography www.stephaniemooreonline.com Makeup Artists artistrybysandy@aol.com

Spring and Summer Weddings embrace a renewed interest in classic stlying in dress, hair and makeup . Hollywood glamour of yesterday is back too.
This season, eyes go bolder with shades of color enhanced with triple coats of mascara or with false lashes expertly applied. Lips stay moist but lined for fullness in colors complimentary to your skin tone with a final touch of shimmery gloss to highlight your bridal elegance. Yes, Red lips are back for those 40’s and 50’s looks, but not everyone can carry off the look! So, try different shades of red and if it’s not for you…. don’t fret, find another shade YOU do like… it will be beautiful, trust me.
Spring and Summer makeup trends are both glamorous and elegant with soft colorful shades for eyes with a bolder lip for that ‘romantic flare’ of yesterday.
Check out : March Archives - ’Makeup Tips for Brides’ and my Blog @ www.artistrybysandy.blogspot.com for latest tips each month.
Your Bridal gown can be glamorously accented with Chandelier or Drop earrings to bring focus to your face so everyone’s eyes are on you the entire Wedding Day.
Hair Design trends lean towards romantic styling as hair is allowed to do ‘ it’s thing’… with loose curls even if your choice is the ‘updo.’
There are beautiful new styles and colors in gowns for Bridesmaids and Mother of the Bride. So, explore many options to find what’s perfect for your figure and taste.
Coastal North Carolina hosts hundreds of miles of pristine beaches against a backdrop of a azure blue sea, truly this is the destination to make your Beach Wedding a dream come true. Among my favorites, Wrightsville Beach, Airlie Gardens and Bald Head Island! Wedding Photography: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOOIAT1LpAQ

Makeup Artist NC – Wedding & Bridal Makeup equals “Photography Perfection”
Contact: artistrybysandy@aol.com

Makeup for Photography: A Wedding in North Carolina, especially a “Beach or Garden Wedding” demands special care in makeup application. Makeup must stay flawless for the Photography from Bridal shots prior to the Wedding, the actual Wedding and then throughout the Reception. Makeup when expertly applied will keep you looking fabulous for all these special events of your Wedding Day.
In humid climates I always use a cream to powder type makeup base that’s oil free along with other ’tricks’ to keep makeup fresh well into the evening. Photos below of Stephanie Williams who was married on Bald Head Island last fall.

Contact us @ artistrybysandy@aol.com
Spring and Summer Makeup for Wedding’s and All Occasion’s is prettier than ever. After years of telling women to choose between strong eyes and strong lips, both can be strong. This actually helps balance out the trends of the black and white power suits, floaty nightgown dresses or white eyelet sheaths. How wonderful to actually have options, we can ‘flirt with glamour’ this season….which is exactly what us girls love to do.
Brows are strong this year….so don’t over tweeze…. just keep them groomed and arched, add highlighter to the brow bone….. it adds glam to the entire eye area. For us mature girls it gives us an instant eye ‘lift’ …. a makeup trick for younger looking eyes.
While the hottest runway looks involve wearing a fiery orange red lip most of us aren’t even close to looking like Audrey Hepburn or Ava Gardner; so it’s best to go with a strong matte lipstick in peach or pink. ( lipstick, not lip gloss). The key to great looking lips is a a lipstick that’s satiny, a silky look that’s not too dewy and not too matte — add a light foundation, triple coat those lashes with black mascara or false ‘demi’ lashes … and darling, your … ‘Good To Go!”
