Make Up Trial

Ok so I was at the mall today and my friend insisted that we just go and get a makeover at one of the counters in Macy's .. so we go in.. I bring in some photos of what I want to look like on the day of.. We look at all the women at the counters we end up going to this woman named Jessica at the Estee Lauder counter, because her makeup looked so perfect and classic..
so she did an hour trial with me.. and I liked it.. but I want to know what you ladies think.. here are some pics of me before .. (and yes I had a long night last night.. partying to hard lol) and after..
before :


After:

and no I am not going to have my hair like that.. and the lipstick we are going to use is a little more berry looking.. teh lipstick I had on there was another one I was thinking of using . . but I am thinking the berry..

and I can always go for more trials..

Hmmm, i do'nt like it. The colors arent that good. The colors don't seem to match well & they aren't really flattering. It looks a little amateurish. I would try another trial.

The color on your eyes looks just black and harsh not what I would want for my wedding. You can use a dark color on your eyes but black? I would keep trying. Good luck!!

To be honest I think the eye make up is a little too dark. It definately does look harsh for your complexion...and a little to much for a bride I think. I would do something more natural...try around. Bobbi Brown or Laura Mercier counters do a nice job. I would go for more soft neutral look.

I agree that the eyes look too dark, especially under the eyes. It doesn't look like a professional 'smokey eye' look - maybe because it was smudged too low? I'm not a makeup artist by any means, but you have to remember that it is VERY important how the makeup photographs since that's what you'll take with you from that day, but to be honest, I don't think it photographed that well. I don't think they did a bad job, just doesn't look too professional. I'd keep looking, but just IMO.
