I once had a bride insist on her ‘no-makeup’ makeup look, but by the end of the day, she was asking for more color! Sometimes, a little bit can go a long way. Ever found yourself in a similar spot?

I totally relate to that! I had a similar experience with a bride who wanted a delicate look but ended up requesting a bold lip by the reception. Sometimes, adding just a pop of color can help elevate any natural look. @washington_39, have you tried using lighter shades that build up, instead of going straight for rich colors?
