Veronica and Lauren did an amazing job on the makeup and hair of myself, 5 bridesmaids, a flower girl, and the two mothers. Everyone looked absolutely amazing and their looks lasted through the fun filled evening of dancing and hugs. In addition to their talented hands and eyes, they are the real deal sweethearts that made the day even more special. I am hoping that one of my friends or family members will have the opportunity to use their services in the near future!
Absolutely amazing! posted 6/30/2010 | The Knot Website
My experience with JS makeup was great. A close friend of mine was married recently, and the makeup artist originally booked to do the wedding party fell through at the last minute. The bride was incredibly stressed over having to find a replacement at the last minute, but thankfully JS was able to accommodate us! (Which is AMAZING, given that the wedding was in Sonoma County in June!) Jacqueline was better than we could have hoped for. She was incredibly professional, yet it felt like she was just another one of the girls. Her work was incredible, the bride looked stunning as did the bridesmaids. I was just so impressed with her ability to draw out our better features…and camouflage others. I can’t say enough about JS Makeup Artistry, and I will absolutely keep them in mind when I get married!

The Foundation Dilemma
By: Jacqueline
The Foundation Dilemma – Liquid, Mineral or Airbrush, which is right for your wedding day?
A question that we are often asked is why we use liquid foundation. The reason that we use liquid foundation instead of air brush or mineral makeup is because it can be set with powder so that it will last all day.
We love the look of airbrush makeup but the beauty of it is the clean look that one or two passes make. The down side is that it will not last all day if it is not set with powder. If it is set with powder you defeat the purpose of the airbrush and might as well have used liquid. Also multiple passes hold up the best but look very think, also defeating the purpose of using airbrush.
We like mineral foundation… for an hour or two. After that it settles in the creases of the face and becomes shiny.
We use a liquid foundation that can be blended to get the perfect color match for your skin. Depending on what is right for your skin, we can achieve a sheer coverage or we can get a full coverage with it. We use a triple milled powder that is sort of like a powdered sugar consistency. Our liquid foundation and powder leave a beautiful soft finish that doesn’t cake or settle in the creases of the skin, photographs well, and will last all day!
