Frequently Asked Questions
I constantly get asked questions about the services I offer and for tips and tricks when it comes to makeup application. Because a lot of these are regularly asked I decided to compile a list of Frequently Asked Questions & Answers for your convenience. Please find the most commonly asked below. If you have any further questions don’s hesitate to contact me.
Q. Do I need to have a bridal trial?
A. No. But most ladies do, both as an excuse to get their makeup done, and for peace of mind.
Q. How soon before the wedding should I get my trial?
A. That’s totally up to you! Some ladies get it a year before, some a week or two.
Q. I’m not sure what I want. What do I do?
A. Don’t worry… that’s what the trial is all about. Bring along some pictures of makeup looks you might like, and we’ll take it from there. We’ll discuss your style of dress and what you like and simply try something out.
Q. How far do you travel for weddings, and how much extra is it?
