Future Brides and Nuance by
Nan
Nuance by Nan focuses on camera-ready makeup
Your wedding day will be remembered as one of the most important days of
your life. As you look back on your photographs, hopefully you will
smile at how beautiful you looked. An important part of achieving this
feeling is the quality of your makeup application and hair style as well
your bridal party’s makeup and hair.
Photographic makeup is different than everyday makeup. Since your
photographs are what you will have to reflect upon for years to come,
don’t forget to include beauty services in your initial budget when
planning for your wedding day. Be sure to plan ahead and don’t skimp.
Nan Whitehead, owner of Nuance by Nan Cosmetics and Skin Care, said, “We
pay attention to detail and our main goal is to use my products and
techniques that are designed to keep the makeup looking fresh all day.”
As the bride, you may consider being helpful and saying thank you to
your bridesmaids with a “gift of beauty.” Arrange for them to have their
makeup professionally applied and, if your budget allows, hairdos as
well. This is a gift that will really help your bridesmaid keep the cost
of being in your wedding affordable. The average bridesmaid spends a
total of $1,400.
“I always suggest to the bride that she might consider purchasing gift
certificates for her bridal party for a wedding day makeup application.
She might also include a lipstick, lip liner and blush for touch-ups as
part of their gift,” said Nan.
The bride’s thoughtfulness will help her bridesmaids’ budgets and assure
that everyone looks picture perfect on her special day.
The bride should start by making an appointment with a professional
cosmetic and skin care consultant. This would be her pre-bridal
appointment. Nan, a former Ford model and professional actress, is tops
in her field. Bridal parties are Nan’s specialty and helping them
prepare and feel confident for that special day is what she and her
staff do best.
On their wedding day, many brides simply apply the same makeup they
would for work or an evening out. What is called for on the bride’s
special day, however, is a professional makeup application that not only
enhances the bride’s visage, but also will allow her to look soft and
radiant.
“During the pre-bridal appointment I work with the bride to select color
coordinated makeup that is best suited to her hair, eye color, skin tone
and most of all her personality. She needs to feel comfortable with the
palette that I have designed for her. This time together gives me the
opportunity to make her feel confidant and to select the colors for that
day,” said Nan. “There should be no surprises,” she added.
The bride-to-be must also remember her makeup must be adjusted due to
the nuances of photographic lighting. There is a delicate balance
between too much and too little. Skin care advice also will be given and
she can start on a regime designed for her skin type, personally
selected for her by Nan. After the pre-bridal makeover, Ms. Whitehead
completes a color chart, which will be followed on the wedding day. If
the bride chooses she can purchase the cosmetics she needs to keep her
makeup looking bright and fresh all day and into the evening. As with
all bridal services, it is important that you book far in advance for
yourself and your bridal party. That way you have the time scheduled
that you desire.
Personal service is the key to Nan’s successful business growth.
Nan said, “I am always available to help my clients keep up to date with
the latest in makeup styles and skin care treatments.”
