👋🏽 Hey, I’m Shervonne—Your New Jersey Bridal Makeup Bestie!

Before we jump in, let me introduce myself! I’m Shervonne Kitto, the face behind Makeup by Sherviii. I’ve spent the last 13 years helping brides like you look and feel their absolute best—and trust me, I love what I do! I’m all about enhancing your natural beauty and making sure you still feel like YOU when you walk down that aisle. Oh, and fun fact—I’ve been featured in Allure, Real Simple, and CNN Underscored, so when I say I know my stuff, I really do!




1. Cloud Skin – The Soft, Dreamy Glow You’ll Love

Forget heavy, caked-up makeup—this trend is all about that soft, buttery-smooth skin that looks like you’re glowing from the inside out. Think of it like having a real-life beauty filter. Perfect for those outdoor summer weddings when you want to look flawless but feel super lightweight.


💡 Here’s How We Get It: I’ll use a satin-finish foundation (so your skin still looks like skin!) and set it with just a touch of powder. You’ll glow without looking shiny, and you won’t have to worry about sweating your makeup off by the first dance!



2. Berry-Stained Lips & Cheeks – Fresh, Flirty, and Fun

Want to look like you just fell in love all over again? (Because honestly, you did!) Berry stains on the lips and cheeks are giving that naturally flushed, just-had-a-good-laugh kind of glow.


💡 Here’s How We Get It: I’ll use a creamy blush that melts into your skin and a soft berry lip tint that lasts through the cake-cutting and those teary-eyed vows. It’s romantic, fresh, and soooo flattering on every skin tone!



3. Soft-Focus Monochrome – When Everything Just Matches (In the Best Way)

This one’s for my girls who love a polished look but don’t want it to scream “I spent three hours in makeup.” We’ll pick one gorgeous shade—like a soft rose or warm peach—and bring it across your eyes, cheeks, and lips.


💡 Here’s How We Get It: I mix cream and powder products so everything blends like a dream. You’ll look effortlessly put together and totally wedding-day ready.



4. Dewy, Hydrated Skin – Glow Like the Goddess You Are

If you’re all about that “skin first” life, this trend is your vibe. Think fresh, juicy, healthy-looking skin that glows in all the right places. No dry, flat skin around here!


💡 Here’s How We Get It: It’s all about layering the right skincare and luminous foundation, plus tapping in some cream highlighter on those cheekbones. Trust me, the glow is going to be unreal!



5. Statement Eyes (But Keep It Cute, Not Crazy)

Not into heavy smokey eyes? Same. But a little drama never hurt anybody, right? We’re talking soft pastel lids, a delicate cat-eye, or just a touch of shimmer to make those beautiful eyes pop.


💡 Here’s How We Get It: Waterproof everything—because happy tears are basically guaranteed. A soft wing or a sweep of shimmer, and boom—you’re serving subtle drama all night long.



6. Fluffy, Natural Brows – Let Those Brows Live Their Best Life

Gone are the days of harsh, overdrawn brows. This year it’s all about letting those babies breathe! Full, fluffy brows that frame your face just right.


💡 Here’s How We Get It: I’ll brush them up, fill in any sparse spots with a little pencil magic, and lock it all in with a tinted brow gel. Effortless but impactful!



7. Minimalist Chic – Because Sometimes Less is Just… More

Listen, not every bride wants to feel like she’s wearing a full face of makeup—and that’s perfectly okay! If you’re all about simplicity and natural beauty, this one’s for you.


💡 Here’s How We Get It: We’ll keep it light, fresh, and glowing. Think sheer foundation, neutral tones, and focusing on the one or two features you want to highlight. You’ll look like you—just with a little extra magic!
