Interview with New York Weddings Make up artist Leora

Today I wanted to share an interview with an expert in wedding makeup and the art of making you beautiful, Leora from Weddings by Leora. Leora is known for her flawless application and has been featured on the Style Network's "Whose Wedding Is It Anyway?"

1. What makes Weddings by Leora unique? What makes Leora Weddings unique is that Leora understands that a brides wedding day is one of the biggest events in her life and knows that the 2 most important things to choosing a makeup artist for your big day are a) you must love the makeup application and look that the artist provides and b) the experience of working with your artist will be stress free and enjoyable! Leora guarantees that the bride loves her makeup and that it lasts from the wedding ceremony until the very last dance at the reception.

2. What services do you provide?
Leora provides airbrush, individual eyelash extensions, wedding trials, customized looks, and is also available to travel for destination weddings.

3. What can you advice brides and couples to be aware of or avoid when hiring their make up artist?
I would recommend that brides and couples schedule a wedding trial with their makeup artist at least 6 months ahead of their wedding date and that the person they choose to hire be reliable and easy to work with.

4. What are the latest trends in make up?
Airbrush is really huge right now as well as individual eyelash extensions, I’ve also found a lot of brides love a light line of liquid eyeliner which provides a soft yet dramatically beautiful finish.
