Wedding make-up at Stoke Rochford hall, Grantham...

 

I recently had the pleasure of working at the stunning Stoke Rochford hall in Grantham for a wedding.  I love travelling and working as a make-up artist.  Not only do I get to see lots of beautiful venues but I get to work with such lovely people too.  I always love receiving my thank-you letters afterwards!

The brief given for this wedding was glamorous, so I knew I could really go for it with the make-up.  Bridy wanted "Hollywood inspired glamour" so I went for a clean eye make-up, black liner with lashes and red lips, she looked amazing!

Then for her daughter, (who was Bridesmaid), we went for smokey, sparkly eyes with false lashes and nude lips, she looked beautiful.  I used mainly Bobbi Brown but I also used Mac false lashes with Make-up Forever diamond powder, which looks so beautiful and glamorous.

Wedding season is still in full swing with lots of bookings being taken still for next year with limited availability, so please get in touch if you wanted to book.

Please see my Facebook page for further images.

Bobbi Brown make-up palette!

 

I am really impressed with the new Bobbi Brown lip palette, it caters for all skin tones and has lots of lip colours and textures to choose from, (please see photo by Melbourne photography.) This was taken at The Habrough hotel.

I am getting very busy for the end of this year and also nearly booked up for next year, so please contact me to check availability/if you would like to book!

Wedding season is in full swing and this weekend is busy, busy.  I am so lucky, I get to meet such lovely people and work in such beautiful venues too!  This weekend I have had 3 weddings on.  Last weekend I had the pleasure of working at The White Heather.  Crystal has got married abroad and had her reception here, so I went to do her make-up for her.  I had met Crystal about 5 years ago when she was a bridesmaid for one of her friends...now, it was her turn!

See the photo below, (photography by James Green.) James is a great photographer and I love working with him, he always produces such great images.  Here I used the fantastic Bobbi Brown Long-wear foundations, as it was so hot! so I had to use long-lasting formulations for both the base and eyes.  I could afford to go quite a bit darker than usual, as Crystal had a great tan!  I could also use much richer shades on the eyes, cheeks and lips, as you can see.  She looked stunning.

I am still loving writing my regular column for the Journal magazine, my next column is all about make-up brushes so keep an eye out for that!

I also have a few other exciting projects up and coming, so I will keep you posted on that too!

Smokey eyes...

Special occasion make-up, etc.

I had another very busy weekend last weekend - I also had the pleasure of doing 2 lovely ladies' special occasion make-ups for an evening wedding reception, as she had got married abroad.  Kelly wanted a Kim Kardashian look so I knew I could really go for it with the make-up and contouring.  I used lots of different products, including Make-up forever, Mac, Bobbi Brown, Louise Young, Tom Ford and Illamasqua, (see photo.)  I also used some beautiful false eyelashes from Mac.

I have another very busy weekend ahead of me again, with 3 weddings on.  Wedding season is in full effect!  I am soon to be travelling to Stoke and also the beautiful Walcott Hall in Alkborough.

I hope you are having a fantastic Summer! I will write a blog soon about meltproof make-up I think!

Lincolnshire Pride magazine, etc.

At the moment, things are very busy - with weddings and make-up lessons.  I also had the pleasure of meeting the lovely people behind Lily Lolo cosmetics this week, which is based in Hull...watch this space!

Its also lovely when I get to see my work in a magazine.  The June Lincolnshire Pride magazine is out, and I am proud to be mentioned in there from a lovely past bride of mine.  (P111.)  Emma Graham said "I could recommend every single supplier; they were all brilliant.  However, I think the day wouldn't have been the same without Tina Brocklebank who did our make-up; she made us all look beautiful."  It always makes me very proud.  This was from a wedding I had the pleasure of doing at the beautiful Stubton hall near Newark.

I will be getting back to reviewing some products soon hopefully as I have been trying lots out.  Lots of exciting projects up and coming so watch this space!

Bridal/wedding Make-up artist training in Lincolnshire...

I had the pleasure last week, of doing some Bridal/wedding make-up training for a budding Make-up artist, Emma Knight.  Emma came all the way from Suffolk to train with me and apparently has been a fan of my work for the past 2 years!  Emma has trained with the fantastic Pixiwoo and wanted more of a specialised make-up training in the art of Bridal/wedding make-up.  It was a full day!  We started at 9.30 am and after discussing the aims and objectives of the day we set to work!  I first did a demo on Bridal make-up on a model and then Emma did the same afterwards - I gave lots of encouragement and advice along the way.  We finished at 3.30 p.m.

After lunch I had a mature model booked in and I demonstrated Mother-of-the-Bride make-up and then Emma again, did the same after me.  After this I gave her a run-down on all of my most-used products and lots of tips too!  Emma was very eager to learn and I was very impressed with her willingness to learn.  When Emma arrived back home she wrote the following about me - "I have just returned from a 'Bridal Bootcamp' with the amazing Tina Brocklebank, who has really put me through my paces. Tina has over 23 years experience in this industry so there is nothing she does not know about Bridal make-up. Tina is also a Bobbi Brown guru.  Thank you so much I had a great day and learned A LOT!  I really can't thank you enough, you made everything seem so straight forward and have given me the confidence boost that I really needed."

If you would like some Bridal/wedding make-up artist training, please contact me for further details and I can cater it for your level of skill and requirements.

Mature make-up/Mother of the Bride...

Busy day today, writing for my August column for the Journal magazine.  I have decided to write about mature ladies and make-up.  I do lots of make-up lessons and I love being able to help mature ladies with looking their best.  After being trained by Bobbi Brown I fully understood the method of how to make older ladies look amazing using the right tools and products.

Its all about "making you look like you...but better".  Sounds cheesy I know, but it is so true.  You don't have to apply  a lot of make-up just the right make-up! and you will look amazing.

I love using Bobbi Brown make-up still to this day, on myself and on my clients, since I worked for them over 15 years ago now!  It is just so easy to use and helps you look your best with minimal effort.
