So I had my bridal shower yesterday and booked an appointment at the Bay Department Store to have my makeup done before. I bought the eye-shadows I'll be using on the day of, the primer and also the foundation.

We're doing our own makeup and I've taken advantage of free makeup consultations at Sephora and the Bay so far...think I'll go for one more at Sephora the day of my last shower...hmmm maybe for my bachelourette night too!

The eye-shadows I bought were:

Highlighter - Nylon
All over shade - Naked Lunch
Half the Lid and Crease - Satin Toupe
Just the Outside Corner - Mulch

The foundation is:
Studio Tech NC 30

The primer I got is the Smashbox Bronzing Primer from Shoppers Drug Mart - looks super dark in the bottle but blends amazingly well!

I'm definitely using Urban Decay's Eyeshadow primer potion as well on the big day! I'm in love with that stuff!

Here's a before makeup picture and an after:

Your makeup looks great. I'm thinking of doing the same thing with MAC.

Looks great, Sarah! Although, I must say you look almost as good with no make-up, you lucky girl. I haven't tried MAC make-up much at all, but I'm a huge fan of the Smashbox primer. Thanks for the tips, especially the colour selections!

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize that you can get free makeup sessions. I want to do my own makeup so I'll definitely check it out because you look great.
