Alanna Castro and Emily Winters are a dynamic duo combining their artistry in makeup and hair respectively to serve the Dallas, TX, area and beyond. Their style ranges from editorial to every day, and their goal is to make every client feel like the best version of themselves, no matter what they want to express through their beauty.
Alanna started by prepping the skin with several Sonia Roselli products including Water Elixir and Water Oil to seal in plenty of moisture - the key to any good bridal look. For added hydration and to mattify the t-zone, she used Embryolisse Lait Creme Sensitive and Hydra Mat Emulsion. To keep the under-eye area hydrated throughout the day, she added a thin layer of Saint Jane Beauty Bright Repair Eye Cream.
To give her bride the perfect lit from within look, she used Danessa Myricks Beauty Illuminating Veil in Serenity before creating a multidimensional base using numerous shades of Dose of Colors Meet Your Hue Foundation and Kevyn Aucoin Sensual Skin Enhancer.
She set the complexion with By Terry Hyaluronic Hydra Palette and baked with RCMA No Color Powder before adding depth and dimension with Scott Barnes Sculpt & Contour palette. For the cheeks, she added a pop of color with Ben Nye Creme Blush Wheel and La Femme Powder Blush before highlighting with Danessa Myricks Beauty Enlight Illuminators in Light and Heaven Sent.
Next, she focused on creating a true bridal glam eye look using Viseart Neutral Mattes palette and added brilliant long-lasting sparkle with Danessa Myricks Beauty ColorFix in Twinkle and Lit Cosmetics Liquid Metals in Activated Gold. For the liner, Alanna used PRO MUA fav Inglot AMC Gel Liner in 77 and Make Up For Ever Aqua Resist Liner and popped on dramatic lashes from Lashes in a Box.
To complete the look, she created a soft pink pout with Make Up For Ever Artist Color Pencil in Limitless Brown and Universal Earth and filled in the lips with a blend of Danessa Myricks Beauty ColorFix in Nude 3 and Creme Brulee. She topped the lips with a light layer of Saint Jane Beauty Luxury Lip Oil in Cloud, a soft pink.
Finally, she gave her bride's decolletage a radiant glow with Melanie Mills Hollywood Gleam Face & Body Radiance in Disco Gold and set the entire look with Melanie Mills Hollywood Ultra Lite Long Lasting Sealing Spray.
