Makeup Trial Run -- Jean Folchi

Yesterday, I had my makeup trial run with Jean Folchi. She is AMAZING!!!!

I immediately hit it off with her, and I looked and felt amazing! She used airbrush and false lashes, which I had never used before. Everything looked flawless! I ran around the rest of the day doing errands, and at the end of the night, the makeup still looked Fantastic! She also took a lot of time to give me tips and recommendations for how to get my skin prepped for the day of the wedding. I cannot wait to do it all again in a month!

  • What tips did she give?! Do share!

  • That is exciting!!  I am definitely going to get in touch with her also!  I had planned on using Brideface, but guess I should shop around.
  • I also used Jean and loved her.

    You actually had your trial around the same time of year that I did last year.  So I'm sure she discussed how dry your skin is.

    She recommended to use the following products:

    Aveeno - Daily Skin Scrub, 1-2X / week (name that I found was a bit different, but I think it's the same)
    Aveeno - Positively Radiant night creme/lotion (couldn't find night cream, just day cream with 30 SPF, probably okay)
    Aveda - Hydrating Masque, 1-2X / week as masque, 5-10 minutes then rise; 3-4X / week thin layer over moisturizer at night
    Aveda - Lip Saver Balm (all the time).

    I used all but didn't really like the hydrating masque.  It irritated my skin.  But I've been using the rest of the products ever since and LOVE them.
  • Yes, MattsPenguin! Those are exactly the products that she recommended. I LOVE the Hydrating Masque from Aveda, and the Lipsaver! They are fantastic, I also bought the Hand Relief Cream from Aveda-- it is lovely, too!

    My skin does get dry in the winter/early spring-- so I was glad to get some good advice on that. My skin was a bit dry (even though I moisturize daily). I've now taken to moisturizing morning and night and using Clinique's All About Eyes Cream. That is a fantastic product, as well! In just a couple of days I have noticed that my eyes are brighter, and have less fine lines.
