The Magical Touch of IAN SHAM-Professional Makeup Artist

On the emerald isles of Langkawi, an intimate tropical hideaway, fringed by enchanted forests and silver sands presents the most romantic Lori & Scott’s wedding accompanied by the sound of gentle waves with the sunset over the Andaman Sea while they exchange their vows.

I’m so lucky to be Lori’s important person as her makeup & hair stylist that day….for the bridesmaid, Lori’s mom & Scott’s mom too. It was a perfect day! The weather was sooo kind & makes the wedding day a truly memorable at Four Seasons Langkawi.

Often a person says too much instead of too little…

We’ve all heard the old adage “less is more” a hundred times, used in a hundred different ways. Sometimes it applies and sometimes it does not, but it definitely applies when it comes to makeup.

Your wedding is the biggest celebration of the year. Do try to remember, though, that everyone wants to see you, not a radically changed woman masquerading in your wedding gown. If you don’t wear much makeup normally – or none at all – you don’t want to walk down the aisle with a heavily painted face. It won’t seem natural, you won’t be comfortable, and the pictures taken will reflect it (not to mention your memories).

The makeup that you do use should be good for flash photography, too. Stick with foundations that have a yellow undertone, as these will create a warm healthy appearance in the photographs that are taken during the wedding and reception.

Here, I wanna share my works for Malaysia’s Bridal Guide Vol.15.  The gowns, Ivoire by My Bridal Gown & Photographed by Picture Elements. Venue, Eastin Hotel Petaling Jaya.
