    How much are you looking to spend? Do you want airbrush?

    I recommend: Cynthia Sally (or Maris who also works w/her)--they do airbrush:

    Or, Make up by Julie--she does regualr make up. http://www.facebook.com/pages/Makeup-by-Julie/109582419105714?v=info

    I second Cynthia Sally. She did my makeup for our wedding and it was beautiful, and stayed all day and night. I had the airbrush and lashes. My sisters had their make up done as well, and we loved our lashes (called them our lady gaga look)

    She's a teriffic gal, and does a great job.

    They have level 2 artists that are $175/$75. I'm doing a level 1 artist which is $225 and $85 for airbrushing.

    Good luck

    Yup I also recommend Sonia Roselli. There are associates that have varying rates and there is an appointment setter when you call who will go over it with you. So far so good!

    Not to highjack the thread, but what is the general consensus on airbrush vs. regular make-up?

    Thanks!

    I'm a huge fan of airbrush even though it's a little pricey. When I get nervous and anxious I start to sweat (I know, TMI) and my make up just melts.  I had an airbrush trial and it lasted from when I had it done at 1pm, through well into the evening. My photographer also mentioned that it looks great in pictures.

    Airbrush 100%.  My engagement were done outside in the city in August, on one of the hottest days of the yr last summer.  I looked flawless, even after 4 hours of feeling like I was melting!!

    and BTW.....Maris @ Cynthia Sally was responsible for the fantastic make-up!

    Holly Kasprisin of www.chicagobridalhairandmakeup.com did an awesome job with my airbrush makeup trial. I wanted to look like myself, but only better. I was afraid that if I didn't where a lot of makeup that it would not last. Holly calmed my nerves when she told me I didn't need a lot for it to last. I did the trial early (10am) and it lasted late into the evening until I took it off. She does airbrush; and said it's a combination of the right makeup, and soft touch that leaves a completely natural look that stays in place all night long. The only thing I touched up was my lips, and a little powder later on (I'm on the oily side) Good Luck!
