Face of the Day: Bridesmaid

Posted by in FotD, looks | 10 comments

Some of you may have known that I was in a wedding this past weekend.  A good friend of mine from way back was getting married, and it was definitely an honour to be included in the wedding party.

It was my first time being a bridesmaid, so I definitely wondered what I was going to do makeup wise.  I knew that I’d be keeping it pretty soft, so as not to detract from the bride – but at the same time, I wanted it to be visible enough to show in photos and last the day.
