Get The Look

Meet the expert: Jessica Rose is a make-up artist based in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. She created the beautiful look for the model Esme in our cool and contemporary styled shoot this issue that took place at the new wedding venue The Lakes by Yoo which is revealed on page 51. Here, she tells us how to recreate it.

Jessica says: Brides that book me for an intimate, luxury wedding will generally ask for a modern, minimal and relaxed look. It still needs to stand out in the photographs though, so for this look, I created a matte eye in neutral tones with no shimmer and for this, I used the NYX warm neutrals eyeshadow palette. I kept the definition close to the lash line by applying a good amount of black eyeliner on the upper lid, then pressed a warm matte brown eye shadow over the top to soften the line, and added individual lashes for a subtle, natural look. My secret weapon against crying is NYX waterproof mascara – it has never let me or my brides down!

Longevity is the most important thing for me when it comes to choosing products (after checking that they’re cruelty-free) so I used Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Foundation which I know is a great long-lasting foundation and photographs beautifully.

To finish the make-up look, I added a soft matte lip cream in a barely-there beige tone. The finishing touch was the soft wavy hairstyle, I brushed it through and left it loose.
