Frequently asked questions

Bridal

What type of make-up do you use?

I use a range of the most leading products in the market, all of which are photography friendly. Clinique, Bobbi Brown, MAC, Nars, Laura Mercier , Smashbox and Senna Cosmetics to name but a few.



Why should I hire a professional make-up artist for my wedding day?

This is by far, the most important day of a your life. Emotions can sometimes run high on the morning of your wedding and by hiring a make-up artist - it removes the stress of getting the perfect look all on your own. With my vast experience and products that I use, I ensure your best features are highlighted to compliment your photographs.



How far in advance should I book?

I always advise brides to book their make-up as early as possible as it can be extremely busy for weekend dates and can be booked up 12-18 months in advance. A trial can be carried out before confirming if you wish, but are normally arranged 6-8 weeks before your wedding date. Please contact me for further details.



What happens at the trial?

I believe that listening to you - is the key to the perfect make-up. We will discuss what kind of look you are trying to portray and with this, I will apply your make-up step by step - showing you how it looks throughout each stage. When you are happy with the end result, I will make a record of everything we have done so you can relax and enjoy the morning of your wedding.



What lipstick/lipgloss do I use for touch ups throughout the day?

At your trial we would have already agreed on what lipstick/lipgloss you are happy to use on your wedding day. I can therefore, buy a brand new product for you and you can compensate me on your final bill or if you wish, I can give you all the details and you can purchase the product yourself so you have it to use as much as you wish to top up throughout the day!



Do you offer false eyelashes?

Yes i offer natural strip eyelashes. At your trial we can determine together if these are needed.



Where are you willing to come to on the morning of my wedding?

I will be at the location that you need me. Whether it be your venue or to you or your parents home, I will travel to you. I commit to only one wedding a day.
