💄 Happy National Lipstick Day! 💋
Let’s talk about the ultimate power move: a classic red bridal lip.
As a bridal makeup artist, I am absolutely obsessed with a bold red entry. It is timeless, jaw-dropping, and utterly romantic.But here is my professional hot take: I rarely recommend it for your wedding day.Why? Because a red lip is a serious commitment—just like marriage! 💍If you choose red, you are locking it down for the night. You have to commit to constant mirror checks, strategic wine-sipping, precision touch-ups, and very careful kissing. It takes work, dedication, and a lot of maintenance to keep it looking perfect.If you are ready for that level of devotion, I am your biggest cheerleader! But if you want to eat, drink, and dance without a care in the world, let’s stick to a gorgeous low-maintenance n**e.

I would like to wish this special bride, my daughter, a happy birthday.
Before I’m a Makeup Artist to the stars, I am a Mom, always.
Doing makeup for her wedding was one of the most precious moments 🥰; there were tears and laughs & she looked stunning.
And yes, because im a perfectionist, I did everyone's makeup in the wedding party.
I also flew down 𝐉𝐔𝐀𝐍 𝐉𝐎𝐒𝐄 𝐇𝐄𝐑𝐑𝐄𝐑𝐀 | 𝐒𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐇𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐲𝐥𝐢𝐬𝐭 to make sure everyone felt and looked beautiful.
She is one of the kindness people , amazing mother herself, and perfect wife , and I’m proud to be her mom. Happy birthday Kamila Blume ❤️

Vendor Spotlight! Luxe Dog Nanny. !
At Aga Rhodes Bridal Makeup, we love furry family members, especially when they are included in all Wedding festivities. We also understand that all the beautiful commotion can be stressful for your free companion, and that’s when Luxe Dog Nanny. comes in! She will bring your pup in, make sure he takes beautiful photos with you, take him back to her place, give them tons of love, treats, water, etc., so the humans can actually get married in peace lol.
I have worked with for four years, and as a huge animal lover and advocate, she has my highest approval! What a joy to have her and all the furry friends!

Happy long weekend !
Let’s be real for a moment: as a bridal makeup artist with over two decades of experience, I’ve got my fair share of worries! 😂
Of course, we’re incredibly fortunate when our schedules are packed, but let’s not kid ourselves—when we’re not booked, it’s a email-checking frenzy, and we can’t help but second-guess our artistry!
Oh, and those timelines? Don’t even get me started! When you get a schedule longer than the Declaration of Independence that includes a breakfast menu, it can make your head spin! But if there are gaps of 2 to 3 hours—well, that’s a different kind of dizzying.
AI inspo - that’s all I have to say 🤐
And let’s talk about our love for organized brides! We adore you, but sometimes it’s okay to let go a little and let the professionals work their magic.
Relax, bride-to-be; being in this wonderful whirlwind is a blessing and a curse at the same time, if you catch my drift!
Here’s to keeping it fun—and just having the guts to say what everyone might be thinking. Cheers to that!
