As promised--2 Makeup Trials with Pics!

I had one trial yesterday with Maureen Pedala. She is so fantastic. She airbrushed my foundation and put on the individual false eyelashes. It stayed on all night and was still going strong when I woke up this morning (I was a bad girl and fell asleep with it on). Maureen is such a sweetie--she not only turned down my tip but also did a quick makeover on one of my BMs who came with me. The makeup looked great but it was a little weird to be out in the daytime with false eyelashes and lots of eyeshadow. My BM said I looked like a high price escort--at least I'm high price, not standing outside the Lincoln Tunnel

Today, I had a trial with Chante at the Bobbi Brown counter at Barney's. She'd been recommended by a LIW gal and an attorney I worked with. Funny enough, she has worked on a lot of the brides who've picked Perceptions Photography. I liked that the makeup was something I'd feel comfortable wearing even during the day, but I'm not sure if it's 'dramatic' enough for the wedding.

Let me know what you think:

Chante!!! Isn't she amazing?? I wanted her so badly but she's way out of my price range. If you can do it, go with her!

Here's a link to some pics of a bridal party (bride and 4 of the 5 BMs) that she did. It looked SO good!

hmmm i like them both really...the first pics are a more dramatic look and the second is a more natural look..
It depends on the look you want?!
I think i would go with the first make-up trial

you look great...
I think pic #2 looks more like your 'general' pic of how you normally do your make up...

Very pretty!
In pic #2, you remind me of Sarah Chalke, the girl from the TV show 'Scrubs'.

Wow, you are beautiful! I just figured out who you remind me of - Jane Krakowski!! (that is a big compliment).

My favorite pic is the second one in the post - you really look so beautiful. For the record though, I liked the first one as well. You do a good job on your own makeup.
