Lisa was so perfect for me and my bridesmaids to use on my wedding day, because she came highly recommended 
and she came to me where I was.  All I had to do was wake up and take a shower and she took it from there.
This allowed me to feel very stress free and contributed to my glorious mood that day!!!
Her work was tremendous, I looked flawless and I felt like a beautiful bride!  ~Tiffany



Lisa came highly recommended by my sister, who used her for her wedding last year.
She understood the special needs of my particular ceremony and the long hours she would be needed -
everyone looked perfect, especially me!  We appreciated her hard work and beautiful efforts on our behalf. ~ Regina



 ’Your ultimate satisfaction is my focus. 
I love making every bride, bridesmaid and mother look and feel gorgeous for the special day. 
Call me today - I look forward to meeting and working with you!’ 
~ Lisa


I would recommend Lisa to any bride that wants to look beautiful on her wedding day. Lisa did all of our make up early
in the day and it lasted all night. It looks great in photos. I am very happy with her services and I highly recommend her.

The makeup looked natural, felt great, and looked wonderful in pictures. I can't count how many compliments I received on my makeup.

Lisa did such an incredible job - we were so very pleased with her beautiful work!
My mother was especially happy to have her makeup done, as she never wears a stitch of makeup.
She worked above and beyond for us all and we loved our makeup.

You can see that Lisa knows how to do make-up for a natural, but very special, look for your wedding day. No white highlighter on the brow bones here=)

What kind of products do you use?

I use some of the finest professional products used in the industry.  I use what are known as "camera ready" cosmetics - products that are made specifically for the print and film industry - these have been tested time and time again to not only hold up to demanding camera and film shoots, but also to look beautiful in person and hold up through your day and evening.  I work with EVERY skintone and EVERY ethnicity - I can match anyone, no matter how difficult you may think your skintone is.  Custom blending with professional products is one of my specialties - being trained in color theory is they key; you could say that I have an eye for undertones.

Camera ready signifies that the product will not distort or flash back into the camera.  Most every product you find over the counter/retail has SPF to block the sun from damaging your skin.  These are great for everyday, but not what you want for print images and your valuable bridal portfolio pictures. 

Also, these are very kind to your skin, and I have never had any adverse reaction complaints from any of my clients!  That says a lot, and I can totally recommend them also for your daily use, should you decide you like how they look and perform for you. 

A few of the product lines I use ~  RCMA, Cinema Secrets, Lancome, Stila, NARS Graftobian, TEMPTU, M.A.C Pro, O.C.C., Camera Ready Cosmetics, Visiora, Face Atelier, Make Up For Ever, Yaby and more.  A few of the color makeup lines I carry are Lancome, Bourjois, Chanel, Dior, La Femme, Smashbox, Revlon and many others.  I use what works, and what I’ve come to know works consistently with a variety of people and skin types. 

How to Care for your Skin Through Hydration

~ Lisa Johnson of Brides by Lisa - www.bridesbylisa.com

The best way to provide for complexion care is to focus on skin care through hydration. Hydration simply means to keep the body supplied with adequate water and moisture so it functions at its optimal level and gives you healthy, glowing skin.

Importance of Hydration:

Hydration or water in the body is very important as it makes for a healthy functioning of the system and youthful looking skin that can belie your age, if you take good care to follow the thumb rules. Drinking water helps to flush out the toxins in the body and eliminate the pollutants that are present in the bloodstream and make up for dehydration suffered by the body when exposed to sunlight, faced with perspiration and harsh winds.

Prevents skin aging:

Even with all the wide variety of skin care products available today, containing the best of natural goodness; the reason why there are more complaints about premature aging is due to the lack of moisture in the skin. Most products have additives and chemical that are abrasive and strip skin of good oils, which are difficult to replace.

Following hydration therapy encourages people to intake at least 8-10 glasses of water daily along with following a healthy, balanced diet that is rich in vitamins, minerals such as fresh fruit and green, leafy vegetables, most of which contain water. Restrict use of soaps, creams and gels as they do not contain the main ingredient that the skin needs and replace them with more water to contribute to hydration therapy for healthy, happy skin.

Soothing Skincare Through Hydration

The only way to truly moisturize your skin is to get water into it. However, as simple as the advice is, the only problem is that the skin by itself is virtually waterproof and water cannot penetrate its resilient surface. Therefore, the next best thing is to provide it with necessary water through oral intake and prep it up with external elements that have essential oils rich in nourishing elements like almond oil, coco and shea butter, among others.

The reason why a baby’s skin is smooth and flawless is due to the high water content in the body, which gets depleted over time due to normal aging, exposure to the elements and sunlight, poor diet, stress among a host of other factors. Due to this wrinkles appear, normal skin function is reduced and many other problems arise like oily or dry, scaly skin.

• Hydration is necessary to help raise the skin’s natural barriers and to moisturize and nourish the skin. The use of gentle cleansers can prevent stripping the natural essential skin oils and combat winter dryness.
• To add moisture in your home, place cups of water throughout the house when running your heater so that the room-heating element that dries the air of moisture and robs the skin and nasal membranes of the moisture they need, can be replenished.
