How do I prepare for my Bridal Trial, Wedding Pre Shoot or Wedding makeup appointment?

  • Come with a selection of inspiration photos of someone with similar features as you

  • An idea or list of things you don’t like- including colours or brands

  • Waxing: if you plan on waxing your face/eyebrows please do this at least 2 days prior as when you wax too close to your booking th makeup won’t hold whether the skin is healing

  • Tanning: If you are getting a fake tan on. the day or days prior to your wedding, ensure you come to the preview booking with the fake tan. Fake tan changes the hydration and texture on the skin as well as the tone. It will alter what skin prep and foundation we use

  • Lashes: If you want to use false lashes, please avoid having a lash lift for at least 4-6 months prior to your booking and wedding. False lashes don’t apply well over a lash lift and we cant guarantee it will hold

  • Hair: Its recommended to book your hair trial on the same day as your makeup trial so that you can see the look in its entirety . If this isn’t possible, please wear your hair similar to your wedding hair

  • Skin: If you are having any treatments like needling, laser or peels, please allow time between your appointments. Ideally 5-7 days
