Makeup&Hair Frequently asked questions

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HIRE A MAKE-UP & HAIR ARTIST FOR MY WEDDING/SPECIAL OCCASION?

Easy; cause you want to be that bride that is not rushed or pressured to copy one of those Instagram or Youtube looks that both you and I know, never turn out the same. So, why risk your peace?? Hire a Professional who will take care of making you look Fab, and bring your vision to life on your special day or occasion.

I AM NOT SURE WHAT MAKEUP LOOK I WANT ON MY SPECIAL DAY, CAN YOU HELP?

Of course! We got you girl (wink)! 99% of the time it makes my job and my team, easier to have certain looks ready to grab inspiration from. Pinterest, Instagram, Google, are all very good sources of info when it comes to looking at different styles of what you like or don’t like.

DO YOU OFFER BRIDAL TRIALS? IF SO, WHAT IS THE PROCESS OF THAT?

Absolutely necessary and mandatory, we do not want to be caught doing three different looks on your wedding day, do we? Trials are an opportunity to design and personalize your make-up and hair. Then come the day of your wedding, we would have the look nailed down already and everything will be a breeze!

MILLION-DOLLAR QUESTION, WILL THE MAKEUP&HAIR LAST? WHAT DO YOU USE THAT GUARANTEES ME THAT?

The makeup will last all day without needing any touch-ups with the exception of lips (due to eating/drinking etc). As a professional makeup artist, I am able to apply and set your makeup to ensure it looks as beautiful in the first hour as it does in the 8th hour.

I only use the best products that I've personally have had experiences with myself to ensure its performance is up to quality. The main brands that I use in my kit are INGLOT, Charlotte Tilbury, Fenty Beauty, KVD beauty, Makeup Forever, Laura Mercier, NARS, Becca, Natasha Denona, Hourglass, etc. My kit is always being renovated with the best and innovative products in the industry.

Skincare prep is also a crucial part of the application process to ensure your makeup holds up well throughout the day. Skincare such as Embryolisse, Milk, Laura Mercier, Bobbie Brown, Too Faced, Dr.Jart etc. These type of products are design to work well with make-up and to help longevity.

WHY ARE FALSE EYELASHES NECESSARY AND CAN I OPT OUT OF USING THEM?

It is a personal choice, although they will always elevate a look. If you wear lash extensions, you may opt out of having additional false lashes applied. Personalized faux mink lashes are used per every lash application

HOW LONG DOES A MAKEUP & HAIR APPLICATION TAKE?

Makeup applications are scheduled for 1 hour, same goes for hair. It may take less time or more depending on hair style ,application of extensions, and blow dries, 45 minutes to 1hr are allocated for services being given to each person in the wedding party.

ASAP if you want to pick the right artist that gives you the look you’re looking for. Most bridal parties are booking 6 months to a year in advance .If your wedding is in the spring or summer a year or more in advance is recommended.

DO YOU TRAVEL TO ME AND TO THE WEDDING? IF SO, WHAT DO YOU CHARGE FOR TRAVEL?
