I love helping my brides feel confident that they won’t transform into a person that doesn’t accurately reflect their image. I enjoy being present and on standby throughout the day for the added layer of support, love, and care.•Bridal season is in full effect, and it feels like I’ve spent the last few months catching flights to work with the most incredible women.•Most of my brides have multiple looks on their wedding day/weekend, and I’m there for all of it with natural, timeless looks prepared. My consultations are as detail-oriented as the personalities of my brides because I understand the importance of full support and feeling heard.•For women of color, it can feel challenging to find artists who are passionate about bridal work and understand how to achieve natural, timeless makeup with the elevated feel you want for your day. It doesn’t have to be that way anymore. Let’s work on something special for your big day. ♥️ by @goldfacedartistry

Bringing together your wedding look can feel really overwhelming, and sometimes you may find yourself bringing elements together that don’t quite fit your vision. I love planning, ironing out the details and supporting you to feel your absolute best. It’s never been about makeup, it’s always been about how you feel when you’re able to shine your brightest.The women I work with feel fully supported because I’m passionate about doing the challenging work- bringing together all the everything that creates their unforgettable moment. You’re worth the extra time, care and attention to detail.Beauty: @blakeamber Hair: @vincenttobiasbell Stylist: @jjoeylee Dress: @houseofrenhue Florals: @jjsflowershop Assist: @_hdartistry Photographer: @arcvneBeauty:Natural MakeupAtlanta Makeup Artist New York Makeup ArtistLos Angeles Makeup ArtistChicago Makeup Artist Philly Makeup ArtistHouston Makeup ArtistNatural Glam Natural Bridal Makeup#art #contemporartyart #editorialphotography #editoralmakeup #voguewedding #caratsandcake #bridal #bridalinspiration #bridalmakeupinspiration #bridalhairstyle #bridalhairstyling #bridalmakeup #bridalmakeupartist #bridalstyling #bridalgown #bridallook by @goldfacedartistry

A lot of people don’t know that for six months of 2022, my health failed. I thought I’d never be able to do this again. To do what I love. Helping women like that👆🏾I remember crying so many nights when every inch of my body was in pain, and all I could do was stare at the hospital ceiling and ask God for a second chance at a normal life. I promised to take my health seriously, stop overworking and to ask for help when I needed it. Last year changed my entire perspective, I really needed its lessons because now I’ve experienced love without conditions, without accomplishments or justifications. Worthiness is something I’ve wrestled with all my life, and I finally get it.This year, I’m leaning deeply into peace. I’m so grateful for the sisterhood & support from all women surrounding me. ♥️ Thank you for being here.

✨Tips for Lifting Your Eyes✨Model: @natiamobley This monochromatic look was inspired by the 90s supermodel era. My model sessions often turn into makeup tutorials so I wanted to share the tips I gave Natia on recreating this eye look💕Tip 1: Focus on elongating the outer corner of the eyes with medium-deep brown shadows that work for your skin tone.Tip 2: Keep your eyeliner thin and on the outer halfTip 3: Tightline your upper waterline, this helps your lash line look full without taking up precious eyelid space Tip 4: Use smaller lashes - half lashes are great for this effect Tip 5: Avoid smoking out dark colors on the lower lash line, leave the bottom lid empty or use a medium brown with a warmer undertone.Foundation: @beautyblender Concealer: @armanibeauty 11+12 Powder: @dermablendpro Saffron @lauramercier Deep @maccosmetics Mineralized Skin Finish (MSF)Contour: @fashionfaircosmetics Dark Chocolate DreamLip: @makeupforever Artist Pencil Limitless Brown @makeupbymario Deep Rich Brown Brows: @anastasiabeverlyhills Brow PowdersEyes: @bobbibrown Cinamon @makeupforever Warm Brown Whatever Black Eyeshadow: @diorbeauty Amber Neutrals PaletteLiner: @hourglasscosmetics Obsidian @inglot_cosmetics 77 cream liner Brushes: @yongbeauty_ @mykitco @maccosmetics @omniabrush #atlantamua #atlantamakeupartist #houstonmua #nymua #newyorkmodel #newyorkmakeupartist #nudelipstick #brownlipstick #brownlipgloss #bronzeeyeshadow #naturalmakeup #bridalmakeup #blackbride1998 #bellanaijaweddings #lauramercier #kkwbeauty #dermablend #maccosmetics #goldfacedartistry by @goldfacedartistry

AJ, thank you for your honest conversations that got me together. Thank you for pouring into me as an artist, thank you for the major opportunities that pushed me forward. Thank you for mentorship.You helped me see the possibilities within a career as a makeup artist, and it’s clear that you’ve been a champion for others your entire career. Thank you for believing I had what it took for The New York Times. To date it is the greatest benchmark of my career.In moments like this, I’m painfully reminded of how short life really is, we love you. Rest well @ajcrimson. by @goldfacedartistry
