BN Bridal Beauty: Lola Omotayo-Okoye’s Traditional Wedding Makeup by Banke Meshida-Lawal of BM|Pro

As they say where we’re from, “Peter carry eye go market!” Lola Omotayo was a calm beautiful bride on her traditional engagement, which held yesterday at The Ark in Lekki. She married the love of her life and father of their two adorable children, Peter Okoye of mega Afro-pop group P-Square in a gorgeous ceremony.

The blushing bride’s makeup was done by renowned Banke Meshida-Lawal of BM|PRO, the head MUA in charge at the makeup house, with over 15 years of industry experience. Banke was given full creative reign with bride’s beauty look, as she also designed and crafted the bride’s beads – multi strand freshwater pearls with a gold crystal & amber brooch, as part of her accessory line Coral Reef Jewelry.

All About The Look
Banke used clean lines for a fresh and iridescent look for the bride. Stuck to not too vibrant makeup. As the bride wore red Banke says she was tempted to use her classic BM|PRO Redd but Lola had giggled and protested, “noooo Peter hates RED lips” 😉 The bride’s skin was airbrushed using MAC.
