FAQs

  • Makeup:

    Come with a cleanly washed, toned and make free face, including all eye liner and mascara residue removed

    • For best result exfoliate and use a face mask 2 nights before the booking. Give attention to exfoliate around areas your makeup tends to wear off easily ie. nose. Remember to exfoliate your lips and use a lip mask

    • For Mobile Service, please have a medium- large space where I can set up my kit near a naturally well lit area for natural lighting

    • If you plan to use Fake tan, please do this 2 days prior to your booking. Have at least 1 shower and avoid spraying the face as this often sinks into the pores and leaves dark spots

    Hair:

    • Ensure your hair has been washed 1 day prior with no styling products

    • Dont put conditioner from Roots to mid section of hair

    • If you have oily hair, wash your hair twice the night before or morning of and have zero conditioner or treatment for several days prior and the day of booking. Completely dry your hair with a hairdryer.

    • For Thin Hair, wash your hair the night before and completely dry with a hairdryer, do not use any treatment or conditioner in your hair

    • Please set up space near a powerpoint with space for required hot tools and products.

    • If you dont have a power extensions cord or adaptor board advise prior to my arrival so either myself or booked hairdresser can bring these along

  • Trial

    • Book your trial to coincide with another event like your Hens night or Kitchen tea.

    • 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

    • 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

    • Attend solo

    Wedding Day

    • Have a Makeup free face, freshly cleaned and toned without skin prep

    • 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 the makeup won’t hold as the skin is healing

    • Tanning: If you are getting a fake tan for the wedding day, 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 the 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

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

    • Speak Up: We want to be sure we re-create your vision perfectly. At the end of the preview, we will go through the look in depth to ensure you love it. If there are some tweaks you would like to make, please speak up and let us know. We are absolutely happy to adjust and make notes so you are 100% confident with the outcome
