How do I prepare for my makeup application?
One week prior to your makeup appointment, make sure that you are consistent with your skincare regimen by cleansing and moisturizing, day and night. Drink plenty of water. Use a gentle exfoliator on your skin twice a week. Clean up your brow shape by either tweezing, waxing or threading. Ask me about scheduling a HydraFacial for the ultimate wedding skin prep!
What does a typical makeup application look like?
The skin will be prepped for makeup by removing any excess makeup or dirt on the skin. Moisturizer and primer is applied according to your skin type. Eye makeup will be done prior to the foundation to avoid eye shadow "fallout". Brows are filled in followed by contour, bronzer, blush and highlighter. Lashes are then applied following a lip color. The look is completed with setting powder and finishing spray.
Can I book "just eyes"?
No, I do not book partial makeup applications.
What makeup do you use?
I use high-end, professional grade products to ensure the best quality of luxury service. TEMPTU, Charlotte Tilbury, Make Up For Ever, RCMA, Anastasia Beverly Hills, M.A.C and NARS are a few of the preferred cosmetic brands that I have found exceptional and are readily stocked in my professional makeup artist kit.
How long will my makeup application take?
When booking your special occasion makeup appointment, please allow for one hour and 15 minutes. If you are booking a bridal makeup trial, please allow 2 hours time. If you are bride, please allow 1 hour and 30 minutes for yourself and one hour per member of the bridal party on the wedding day.
