Wedding & Bridal Makeup Artist Brisbane – Abigael Johnston

Look like you, only elevated. Abigael Johnston Makeup specialises in natural, soft-glam bridal looks that enhance your features and photograph beautifully from first look to last dance. If you’re a Brisbane bride who wants fresh, glowing skin, softly defined eyes and a timeless lip that lasts all day (even in Queensland humidity), this is for you.

What Is Natural Bridal Makeup?

Natural bridal makeup is all about polish without heaviness. Think:

Skin-first application for a radiant, breathable base
Softly sculpted features without harsh lines
Neutral, romantic tones that flatter your complexion
Defined eyes and lashes that enhance your shape (not overpower it)
Long-wear, humidity-resistant products for Queensland conditions

The result is a timeless, effortless look that doesn’t date—perfect for every wedding style, from city chic to hinterland garden ceremonies.

How To Prepare For Your Trial And Wedding Day

- Skincare: Keep your routine consistent in the weeks leading up. Avoid trying new active products right before your trial or wedding.
- Brows and dermaplaning: If shaping or dermaplaning, schedule 3–7 days prior. Avoid waxing the day before.
- Tans: If tanning, book your trial after a test tan so shades match the wedding day.
- Inspiration: Bring 2–4 reference images that reflect tones and finish rather than exact replicas.
- Outfit cues: A white or light top helps preview your full bridal look more accurately.
