  • Each makeup session starts with a comprehensive consultation, where we discuss your preferences, allergies, and desired look.

    I'll then provide a customized full makeup application with lashes (individual or strip) and application if desired at no extra cost!

  • Each makeup application typically takes around one hour. However, for wedding trials, we'll plan for 1.5 hours to ensure we have enough time for a thorough consultation and any adjustments needed to create your perfect look.

  • It all comes down to personal preference and what you are comfortable with!

    If you choose to have lash extensions, as long as they're well done, they are easy to work with.

    I also provide an individual lash application as well if strip lashes do not resonate with you!

  • Absolutely! Self-tanner and spray tans can give you that beautiful bronzy glow, especially if you're looking for that sun-kissed and radiant look.

    For all wedding makeup applications: If you plan on having a tan on the day of your wedding, coming to your trial with the same self-tanner/spray tan is crucial. This way, we can ensure that the makeup looks beautiful and consistent on both the trial and wedding day!

  • Come with a fresh face, all cleansed and ready to go, using your everyday skincare routine.

    To make things even more exciting, feel free to show me any makeup looks you love from my Instagram page. It'll give me a starting point and guide me in creating your perfect glam! But, don't stress if you're not entirely sure about the look you want. We'll kick things off with a comprehensive consultation to ensure we're on the same page before diving into the makeup magic!

  • I totally understand how important your wedding day is, and I want to make sure you look and feel your best. That's why makeup trials are mandatory for all marriers and is included in the bridal package.

    During the trial, we'll chat about your makeup preferences and take all the time needed to perfect the look. It's a chance for us to get on the same page and ensure that you'll be stress-free and absolutely stunning when your special day arrives.

    During the trial, you'll have the chance to see how the makeup looks on your skin throughout the day, allowing us to make any adjustments if needed. It's completely normal to take some time to get comfortable with the makeup, especially if you don't wear it daily.

  • Having your wedding trial on a special occasion can be perfect! Think about booking it for events like your engagement party, engagement shoot, bridal shower, or any other celebration. This way, you can make the most of your glam and see how it wears and photographs throughout the day. It's like a dress rehearsal for your makeup, ensuring you look absolutely stunning and camera-ready for all the special moments. So, let's plan your trial on a day that's just as special as your wedding day itself!

    Another great tip is to try to book your trial in a similar climate as your wedding day! For example, if you're having an outdoor wedding in the summer, plan to have your trial when the weather is warmer and you're spending your day outdoors. This way, we can make sure your makeup stays put, no matter what the weather brings.

  • As with any makeup application appointment, come with a fresh face, all cleansed and ready to go, using your everyday skincare routine - try to stick with your usual skincare routine, so we can see how the makeup sits on top of your skin consistently during both your trial and wedding day.

    It's also super helpful if you can share any makeup looks you like from my Instagram page. It'll give me a better idea of what you're envisioning! But don't worry if you're not sure about the exact look you want; that's why I always do a consultation prior to the glam!

    Another great tip is to come with your hair done, possibly after your hair trial if you're having one, and wear a white (or the colour of what you'll be wearing on your wedding day) top. This way, you can truly see how everything comes together! Sometimes, missing pieces of the puzzle can make it hard to visualize the final look.

    Why wear white or the colour of your wedding outfit? It allows you to see how the makeup compliments your wedding attire without any interference from other colours. Sometimes, the color of your shirt can subtly reflect onto your face, affecting how the makeup shows up. So, let's ensure everything looks perfect and coordinated for your special day!
