Your Devon and Cornwall Wedding - Page number 79 - July/August 2021 (Issue 32)

CELEBRITY STYLE I’m a fan of the singer Ariana Grande who got married recently and I loved her wedding make-up. How can I get the look? Meet the expert: Chloe Bond is a make-up artist and hair stylist based in North Devon available for weddings across the South West and Wales. Chloe says: Ariana’s bridal make-up, created by LA-based artist Ash K Holm, features a sculpted brow and winged liner. Here are my key products to help you confidently recreate her look! For brows I recommend Benefit Cosmetics Gimme Brow+ Volumizing Eyebrow Gel because the micro-fibres in this product adhere to your brows, instantly making them appear fuller, and the subtle tint simultaneously adds definition. Apply a small amount for a natural effect, or add more if you’re trying to achieve a bolder brow. Its formula is long-wearing and water-resistant, plus the small tapered brush makes precise application incredibly easy. You can’t beat Fenty Beauty Flyliner Longwear Liquid Eyeliner that’s shaped like a pen with a super-saturated tip which makes application accurate and straightforward. Along with its long-lasting water-resistant formula, the colour stays vivid and won’t fade or transfer.
