Sunshine Coast hair and makeup artist, Valentina Pintus of Sunshine Brides, has mastered techniques throughout her career in the beauty industry, which give her an expert edge in any situation. Today she shares all her secrets for creating Marisa’s stunning wedding day hair and makeup look for the day she married her love, Michael.

Let’s hear from Valentina herself…

“When I met Marisa on trial day her desire was an elegant and effortless look to complement her beautiful dress and the style of her wedding.

“She wanted full coverage, but that still would look natural and not cakey. I used my favourite “double foundation” technique; I applied Makeup Atelier Paris for full coverage with a synthetic brush, and then sprayed over the top with a light layer of Elementwo airbrush. This makes the foundation sweat-proof, long-lasting and absolutely radiant.

“I choose warm tones for the eyes to complement Marisa’s beautiful complexion, and used a few Asian makeup application techniques to enhance Marisa’s features.

“As for hair we opted for a soft textured low bun.. that is modern and absolutely elegant , decorated with a sparkling hairpiece!”

Marisa and Michael were married at Maleny Manor , and their perfect day was captured by Luke Middlemiss Photography and Creative Flows Studios.

Angela has some seriously stunning baby blues, so this pretty makeup design places a little emphasis on the eyes, complimented by softly blushing cheeks and a nude pallette. Perfect for a Sunshine Coast hinterland wedding at Maleny Manor.
