Reminiscing on the beautiful Paris, the inspiration behind J’ADORE BEAUTY. It was the romance of the city, the delicious food, the french boudoir, and the glamour infused with a touch of a vintage that became the muse for our artistry company.
We created this behind-the scenes video during our hair trial with Logann, our blushing bride. She wanted the front to be modernly sleek and the back formed in classic Hollywood waves. We love this style for its classic touch, making it a timeless look that will transcend through the years.
Check out our video below and show us some love, we greatly appreciate it <3
J’ADORE BEAUTY was recently featured by REDFIN on “ Experts Share How to Organize Your Vanity Space”, written by Ryan Castillo.
If you own a lot of blushes, mascaras, and eyeliners you may struggle with keeping all of your makeup and beauty essentials in order. Having a well-maintained vanity space in your home is essential to achieving the perfect look. But you might not know where to start. In order to help, they reached out to makeup experts from San Francisco, CA to Phoenix, AZ to share our best advice on how to set up your vanity space and keep it organized. Read on to see what they had to say.
This is what we said:
Start by illuminating the face with warm, white light and straying from fluorescent or hued lights to achieve the most accurate lighting for color matching. Allow your statement piece of a mirror to speak for itself by keeping the area clean and minimalistic and using high quality, clear bins in the drawers for organization, designating different areas for the makeup, brushes, clips, beauty products, and tools of your collection. – Jadore Beauty

So you have your bridal trial coming up? How exciting!
The day has come to bring your vision into a reality. Planning your desired look is one of the most fun and elaborate parts of the wedding journey for the bride. Whether you are looking to create a glamorous vintage look or of a bohemian goddess, we got you covered. We highly recommend doing a trial beforehand so we can customize your desired look to enhance your natural beauty and fit you perfectly. During the trial, we do a thorough one-on-one consultation where we go over your likes and dislikes, take before and after photos and really utilize the time to perfect your look so that on the day of the wedding you can be assured everything is all set and flawless.
We’re sure you have millions of questions and ideas in regards to your desired look in anticipation of your big day. It can be tricky when you search for what you want and what you don’t want in the vast collection of wedding day looks. We suggest gathering a few key points when creating your look such as the wedding theme you have in mind, your color choices, what season of year we are in, your wedding dress and the design, your jewelry and accessories. Once you have an overall idea of what your dream wedding is like, we then suggest looking for inspiration photos online of your favorite looks and looks you’d like to recreate. Send them our way and let us do our our magic to customize the look for you.
Some tips to have ready before the trial:
you!
a makeup free and moisturized face
dry, product free hair
a white top
veil or headpiece
a chair / table area for the artist(s) to set up near outlet
inspirational photos of your "desired look"
flexible time (trials can take anywhere from 2-3 hours)

Spring is here & it’s our favorite time for flowers in our hair!
We love to create floral designs into your ‘do with each flower & stem perfectly placed into your hairstyle. Each floral design is entirely unique and handcrafted by us!
Often, we have brides and bridesmaids wonder how we can incorporate their flowers into the hair and the truth is there are just so many ways. In order for us to customize and select each flower we place, the main objectives are to look at the size, color and texture of each piece. Then we allow our creative juices to flow and place each piece.
We found some great ideas on flower placement and floral designs for your hair, check them out below.
The best part of working in the bridal industry is being a part of someone’s special day. A day that marks a milestone in each persons’ life as they join in union under the name of love. As a die-hard romantic, I believe that love transcends through time and space.
Beyond the transcendental nature of love, working with brides has exposed me to a world of culture, vibrant colors and traditions. It is a huge blessing to be a part of such a special time in someone’s life and I am grateful for brides sharing their family values and cultures with me as well.
As a result, Indian weddings are some of my favorite celebrations to be a part of. Below are some snapshots of an amazing, vibrant wedding that filled my heart with joy.
Romance is in the air around this time of year as Valentine’s Day sets the mood and exudes energy full of love and passion. I love the thoughtfulness that goes behind the verbal affirmations and gift exchanges to simply remind your lover that they still capture your heart. The roses, the chocolates, the serenades, basically, I’m here for it all.
Some of my favorite styled shoots are in boudoir, where elegance meets sexy in the bedroom. The shoots can be simply for yourself or for your lover. I love seeing the transformations where clients are empowered, feel beautiful and look amazing. Victoria’s Secret’ models, watch out!
This shoot features Florence in the boudoir and the photography by the fantastic Brittany McLaren of Sunshine+Rosé. The vision was a modern take on the 60’s in the boudoir.
Au revoir chéri.
In the sunny month of June, we were honored to do the makeup and hair for our beautiful bride Gigi. The bride Gigi and her bridal party were one of the sweetest we have gotten the chance to work with. We received photos from her wedding and can't wait to show them off!
