Yesterday my team and I met Alison G at her hotel suite in NYC to help make her and her wedding party fabulicious! Alison came all the way from England with her fiance and members of her family to exchange vows in the Big Apple! Alison told me that in February 2010, they were walking across The Brooklyn Bridge, when he suddenly got down on one knee and proposed to her! "Of course I will" she said, "But please get up - it's freezing!"
Here are some photo's my assistant, Jenn took during the hair and make-up preparations.
There are some good make-up tips for you too :-)

After the skin is prepped with the appropriate skin care products, I airbrushed Alison's skin for the ultimate flawless finish.
While I'm focusing on the bride; my talented team goes to work on the rest of the bridal party. This is Holly, she does the most amazing blow-out.
Tip: While doing intricate make-up work, never rest your hand on your client's face or your own - use a velour puff instead! I like the ones by Alcone cosmetics, NYC.

To press fake strip lashes so they're nice and snug against your own natural lashes, use the side (not the point!) of a toothpick. Always carry the wrapped toothpicks, that way they stay nice and clean !
Now to take these rollers out. Alison informed me that there's a new trend in Liverpool, England: girls are wearing hair rollers out in public, shopping etc! complete with glam earrings and make-up of course!
Alison's ready to dress, and looking picture perfect for her wedding!
I think our work is done here ladies, and its back to our studio for a well earned cup of tea!
