Why should I hire a professional makeup artist for my wedding or special event?
A professional makeup artist brings education, experience, and expertise while creating a stress-free environment. We come to your location, follow structured timelines, and ensure your makeup enhances your natural beauty and lasts throughout your event.
​
I’m not sure what makeup look I want. Can you help?
Absolutely. We recommend creating a Pinterest board with inspiration images. During your trial or consultation, we help refine and create a look that suits your features, personality, outfit, and event—from natural to full glam.
​
Do you offer bridal trials?
Yes, we highly recommend bridal trials. During the trial, we discuss preferences in detail and try different looks so you know exactly what to expect on your wedding day. Trial services are charged separately.
​
How long does makeup and hair application take?
Each makeup or hair service is scheduled for 40 minutes to 1 hour per person to ensure proper application without rushing. The same timing applies to bridal party members.
​
How long will the makeup last and what brands do you use?
Makeup is designed to last all day, with the exception of lips due to eating or drinking.
We use professional brands including MAC, Makeup Forever, Laura Mercier, NARS, Bobbi Brown, Chanel, Hourglass, INGLOT, Smashbox, Dior, ABH, and more.
False lashes are included in all services, with the option to opt out.

To maintain consistency and longevity, makeup services must be completed from start to finish by our team. We do not modify or touch up work done by another artist if multiple artists are involved.
