what the heck should I do!

I posted this on the other page too:
I have been wanting to do a make up trial with someone who does air brushing...this is a sample of what I did, the trial, and then the before, I'm just looking for opinions.... Should I stick with the person I went for a trial with, do it myself, or try airbrushing if I can find someone still available? My concern with the trial is I thought the make up should be darker, and how long it will last. Sorry I'm not very photogenic I'm SEVERELY camera shy!

Re: what the heck should I do!

honestly I think your makup looks nice.. but not dramatic enough for a bride. Unless thats your style. I would try airbrushing.. b/c knowing me I wouldnt do it and then i'd second guess myself that I should have tried it.. even after the wedding! jmo

IMO, you sound very unsure about the make-up you had at your trial.. I think it looks very pretty, but it is a little natural looking(you may want darker for pictures).. Do you want a more natural look??? I would maybe add some brighter lipstick.. everything else is beautiful.. BUT it's your day and if you aren't happy or are unsure about your make up get another trial with someonele.. I'm sure you can find, someone to do airbrushing, then you can compare.. YOU have to LOVE your make-up ya know.. If i dont' like something on me, then I'm uncomfortable all day..

so to make it short: I say you look beautiful, but if you want to give airbrushing a shot then you can compare.. GOOD LUCK

I like the first for a wedding. Is that what you did? You can try Lynda Lane, she'll work with you to find a look you can like (she did 3 with me) and she's $35 an hour for airbrushing. Her info and my trial pics are on my budget vendor page:

Airbrushing feels great and lasts for a good while, but doing your makeup yourself should also be fine I think. Good luck!

I also like #1. Did you do it yourself? Maybe go a shade darker.

NSgraham, I love how they showed the different shades of your makeup. I love the last one. ONly because it looks nicer in the photos.

I love that web page you created...great job!

Yes, the first one I did myself. Im a teacher no, but used to do hair and make up which is why Im probably so picky. this has been the hardest part for me of the whole wedding. I just cant afford most people.
