The Face Body Beauty team was proud to be a sponsor of Oregon Bride Magazine’s Urban Unveiled Event on October 31, 2014. The event was held at the unique urban venue, Left Bank Annex.

As a sponsor of the show, the Face Body Beauty team was in charge of makeup and hair for the runway show. The theme for the event and for the runway show was “Garden of Eden”. We loved the theme and were so excited. Jennifer, the owner of Face Body Beauty, created two makeup palettes designed to compliment the theme and the models gorgeous floral headpieces created by Francoise Weeks.

The makeup palettes were designed to be romantic and dramatic at the same time. Face Body Beauty is known for creating fresh-faced looks and that beautiful bridal glow so we definitely wanted that to translate onto the runway.

For hair we had two styles. Both were slightly messy yet romantic. One of our artists, Chelsie did an amazing updo/side braid combo on several of the models and it definitely rocked the runway! The other styles was long, loose waves with a bit of messy and a bit of volume.

We are very grateful for these beautiful images taken by the talented and always fun, Mosca Studios. A thank  you also goes out to Heahter Matheny of Oregon Bride Magazine for all of her hard work on the show. She was an excellent communicator, organizer and manager of everything for Urban Unveiled!

The Face Body Beauty team is honored to have won the award for Best Makeup & Hair 2013 from Oregon Bride Magazine. This is the 4th year in a row that Face Body Beauty has won an award for Best Makeup & Hair. We have also been runner up for the past 2 years for the Best Overall Wedding Vendor, Statewide. This is a huge accomplishment for us as it is a reflection of our business practices as much as our artistry. Thank you so much to all of our past clients and wedding industry colleagues who voted for and supported us this year. We are very thankful and will continue to work hard to provide the best in makeup artistry, hair artistry and overall customer service.

Here are some pictures of the “Face Body Beauties” at the annual Best of party. It was an “all white” themed party this year. We had a great time. Not all of the artists were able to come out that evening but most of us were there and love celebrating together!

Classy, Sexy, Gorgeous, Amazing….
Ladies,
If you have a wedding or special event coming up soon this is the perfect gift idea! He would never expect it and would absolutely LOVE it!
I often hear that I am not in the best shape or I want to lose a few pounds before I do something like that. There is no need! Deyla is amazing at posing ladies in the most flattering ways and finding the perfect light so that you look nothing but gorgeous!
I have done boudoir pictures for my husband a couple of times and I am no skinny minnie!! I was always so proud of myself for doing it and for not letting body image hold me back. It is a very empowering experience as well as the most awesome gift! My hubby was so surprised in the best way! He just kept saying Wow, and you look so beautiful. That made it worth it for sure 🙂 A couple years later, he still talks about his book of pictures and keeps it in a special place! That makes me feel so good!
If you are interested in information about this event, please contact me at jennifer@facebodybeauty.com or Deyla Huss Photography!

2010 has already been an exceptional year for Face Body Beauty!In January we were awarded the Bride’s Choice Award for makeup and hair from Wedding Wire and Martha Stewart Weddings.

This month we were super excited to have been recognized by Oregon Bride Magazine as the Best Makeup & Hair for 2010.

We love what we do and are thankful for the many blessings 2010 has brought! Thank you to all of our friends, family, clients and colleagues for your support and loyalty! Much Love 🙂

I recently had another wonderful opportunity to work with Sara Gray Photography and several other amazing vendors on an pink and white brunch celebration shoot which was published on The Wedding Chicks blog.

 The basic idea for this brunch wedding celebration was to build it around a  feminine pink-and-white palette.

With this in mind, I designed a soft makeup and hair look for the bride using soft, understated pink tones.

I used a soft frosty colored pink on the lips as it photographs beautifully in naturally lighting.  Several shades of blush helped to create and enhance the natural flush of this glowing bride.

I highlighted the inner corner of the eye with a special shimmer powder to create a beautiful glow to her eyes. Just enhancing the natural glow that a bride always has! In keeping with the soft pink and white palette, I styled her hair in a soft side chignon.  Incorporating small strands of pink toned, irregular freshwater pearls added something unique to the style.

A special thank you to Sara Gray Photography for the beautiful photos and for creating such a wonderful wedding concept. Here are some of the other vendors involved in this inspiration shoot:

Love, June Bridal ,Fieldwork, Saucebox Restaurant, Foosie Design, The Party Place, Baker & Spice, Pix Patisserie,

The Face Body Beauty team of artists get together at least once a month for artist workshops. Sometimes we focus on hair and other times we focus on makeup! We have a few areas/topics we focus on for each workshop. It is always way too much fun and such an amazing way to stay current and inspired!

Above, Nanielle is working on our model during one of our Makeup Workshops! We were focusing on soft & beautiful looks for blue eyed beauties!!

Above, Rebecca is creating lovely & soft look for our model…showing that not everyone needs to wear eyeliner on their top eyelids….some ladies look  much better and more natural without it!

Below, Oh how I love to backcomb 🙂   Imelda is curling every lock of hair just perfectly…there really is an art to curling correctly!!

Imelda and Jennifer are working on creating an “undone” style for our model! So popular right now!

  Such a beautiful, loose and undone style for our model!

I hope you enjoyed this sneak peak into the workings of the Face Body Beauty team! If there is a certain style or technique you would like us to blog about just let me know and we can make that happen!

Face Body Beauty does offer both makeup and hair styling lessons so contact Jennifer if you are interested in either a one on one lesson or small group lesson! It is a great way to learn techniques for both makeup and hair! All lessons are customized to your specific goals and skill level!

As always, thank you for following the Face Body Beauty blog!
