Your Kent Wedding - November/December 2023 (Issue 111)

INTRODUCING BEAUTIFICATION STATION My name is Emma Tedman and together with Lindsey, we run Beautification Station. We are a hair and make-up glam team who specialise in weddings. EMMA’S SIGNATURE LOOK My signature bridal look would be all about the glowy, radiant base using the best products to give you a flawless look that lasts all day and night. WORDS OF WISDOM Prep skin really well in the lead up to your big day. Start with a good skincare routine including regular facials at least six months prior. 2024 TRENDS We’ll be seeing more neutral and natural make-up looks. This year we’ve seen latte and strawberry make-ups, so expect to see many more. MEET CHARLOTTE REARDON I was working as a professional model with an agency in London, and had the opportunity to collaborate with all sorts of amazing hair and makeup experts before turning to make-up myself. I truly love all things make-up! I came back to Kent as I’m a country girl at heart and soon landed in the world of bridal make-up artistry. CHARLOTTE’S SIGNATURE LOOK It’s definitely got to be beautiful flawless, glowing skin. I love creating bright mesmerising eyes that are always adorned with custom individual lashes, accompanied by perfectly groomed brows and that killer lip combo for a subtle pout. WORDS OF WISDOM Take in every single second of the day because it will fly by. And remember, nothing can happen without the bride, so finding the right team for the morning will take away each and every stress. 2024 TRENDS Whatever the trends, I always love to stay with the classic elegant style that’s timeless.

I’m at my happiest when I’m part of someone’s special day, I guess because it doesn’t feel like work! I trained at Glauca Rossi in London, which housed some of the very best, such as Charlotte Tilbury and Gemma Kidd. I also took a part time job at MAC Cosmetics to gain experience working with real people instead of perfect models. This allowed me to understand what works best on young to mature skins, and also on different skin tones. WORDS OF WISDOM Natural light is so important so please choose the right place for your hair stylist and make-up artists to set up. 2024 TRENDS 2024 is definitely about bold colours such as electric blues, vivid yellows, and vibrant corals.
