Real Bride: Aimee — Billie Pingault

Burgh house, LONDON, SUMMER 2022

Aimee is a fabulous woman, talented actor and long-time client. It was extra special to be able to get her glam for her wedding day after doing her makeup for so many red carpet moments!

It was like music to my ears when I saw Aimee for her consultation and she said ‘do whatever you think, I trust you’; working with Aimee on events meant I had a really good idea of her makeup style. I still looked at her venue, her incredible bespoke outfits and accessories to give me a clear guide on the right vibe for her bridal look.

Aimee was so playful in her ideas for her wedding look, when she showed me the sketches for her dresses I was so inspired! The detail, textures and shapes were whimsical but fashion forward. I loved her Priscilla Presley reference, and we focused the makeup around a nod to the 60’s, with glowy editorial skin for a modern finish.

We used a not-quite-nude lip tint to press and stain the lip for a long lasting, fresh finish and stacked lots of fluttery individual lashes for drama and definition.
