Vintage Wedding headpiece – Beautiful Powder Room bride

Thursday, April 8th, 2010

Cathy Lucas our Gorgeous Brisbane bride from last week, Easter Thursday was in amazing spirits, despite the happenings before her Wedding day.


Cathy managed to loose her engagement ring and some one stole her vintage headpiece before the Wedding day when she accidentally left it in a cafe.  The House of Windsor worked through the night to make her a new headpiece.  Cathy looked so beautiful with her simple Wedding hairstyle and amazing headpiece.


Cathy’s Wedding make up was a sexy and alluring. Charcoals and darkest navy tones really bring out Cathy’s amazing eyes!   Using a good quality primer really does help the foundation last all night.  Cathy ever so kissable lip colour was one of our favourites, Powder Room’s “Lips with Love” Ms Amour and Gloss shade “Pink Champagne” …muwwhhhh!


“The Powder Room ladies in the background were so calm, and I never doubted for a minute that we wouldn’t look like film stars!  Thank you for making us feel so special, I almost want to get married all over again, so I can look this good:) Thanks Cath”

Sunday, March 14th, 2010

What a beautiful bride! Preeya Ramritu our  stunning Indian bride was married on the 24th January and our taented stylist Tracie looked after Preeya’s hair and make up on her special day.


Preeya’s long gorgeous hair framed her face perfectly with soft curls. This half up half down up Wedding hairstyle is perfect it you would like to wear you hair down but want to have more security in knowing it will last longer.  Hair was set in hot rollers, then gently tonged using a thermal setting spray.  Working around the part hair was pinned softly in individual sections creating some height on top of the head.


The eyes are always the focal point of a Indian brides’s make up Preeya’s make up  was absolutely flawless with shimmering shades of silver and smokey purples and of course lots of luscious lashes!  We love using Laura Mercier, “Metallic creme eye colour in Alloy” under eye shadows to help the shadow stay all night!  One of our favourites brands of foundation to use slightly darker skin tones is “Mac” face and body, can’t live without it!


Preeya chose to wear Powder Room’s “Lips with Love” Lipstick in “Unforgettable”.  Visit our Powder Room store, to check out more colours to say I do!

We just love Rachael’s English Rose Wedding day hair & make up

Thursday, January 28th, 2010

Brisbane Wedding Beauty, Rachel Belonogov, nee Condon sent us this gorgeous photo of her Wedding day hair and make up with a love note of appreciation:)

We think Rachel’s choice of Wedding hairstyle a side swept style looked so fresh and elegant. Curly hairstyles are more popular than ever and this style is a perfect choice for the warm weather.  Rachel’s make up was that of an “English Rose”, flushed cheeks and a pretty pink pout, created using Powder Room’s own - lips with love “Miss Amour”.  The key is to look like you have just had your first kiss!


“To the Powder Room ladies,

This is just a quick email to thank you all for making my wedding day a spectacular day.  All the pampering and attention to detail made me feel truly beautiful.

I had endless compliments on how beautiful I looked… and I have The Powder Room to thank for that.

And the best bit was that my hair and makeup was flawless all day and night long! I couldn’t believe it (and neither could any of my bridesmaids).”

Don’t Miss out of Booking your Wedding day hair and makeup artist!

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010


Hello!

Happy New Year Powder Room Brides, I’m so excited about 2010!  The year of all of your Weddings and we are so looking forward to spoiling you all with your Wedding day hair and make up!

It’s all about Dreaming and imagining your own most amazing Wedding day and we would love to be a part of your special day!

Our phones are going crazy and we are already turning away brides, although we’d love to look after you all!

Powder Room hair and make up artists only spoil one bridal party per Wedding day, so call early in the year to avoid disappointment.

By the way The new “Brisbane Bride” for 2010 is out and we have 6 pages of our beautiful new bridal hair and make up collection, check it out!

Here is a sneak preview of one of our new images from the collection!

I wanted to share with you a 2 minute visualisation, compliments of the gorgeous girls who wrote the book ” Like Chocolate for Women” to help you relax whilst planning for your big day.  Thoughts are powerful and provoke a physical response on the central nervous system.  Try it and see how you go!

* Sit down, close your eyes and imagine yourself on a holiday – pick your favourite place.

Start to hear the sounds and smells of your holiday place; choose to believe you are there.  Stay there a while then come back.

Your body does not know what reality is; it only responds to what the mind is telling it.  It you are uptight and stressed the body will respond by shortening your breath, creating the ‘nervous butterfly feeling’ and teasing muscles.  However, if your mind thinks it is relaxing on a beach listening to the waves, you will slow your heart rate down, relax your muscles and release endorphins (otherwise known as pleasure hormones), making a dramatic change to your body in just 2 minutes.

Powder Room has Twilight fever

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

askprue

Hi Again, it’s Prue and I must say Edward Cullen can bite my neck any day!!

The Twilight fever with the release of the  movie “New Moon” is so this second.  Powder Room stylists love seeing the influence of the celebrities hairstyles and make up, apart from the face that we have all read the books and are addicted.  We would of course love to do the hair and make up on the set.  You never know…..

The premier of the movie  in LA saw lots of liquid liner, severe hair and pale skin.

We absolutely loved celebrity Jenny Garth’s red carpet hairstyle.  The vampy braided quiff bob style looked so simple and fresh.  It looked amazing with defined dark eyes.  Mac Liquid last liner in point black gives that perfect black patent line and of course finished with lots of lashes.

Jenny Garth braid style

Ashley Greene was another stunner on the red carpet.  Her hair looked amazing with her bouffant curls and the  help of extensions. The look was 60′s inspired.  Along with the black liner the inside of the eyes was lined with white liner, to open the eyes even more.  Shu Umemura’s Painting liner in White is a must for this season!
