Frequently Asked Questions

How far in advance should I book my bridal makeup?

We recommend booking your bridal makeup 6-9 months before your wedding date, especially if your wedding falls during peak season (May-September). This ensures you have plenty of time for your consultation and trial, with room to make any adjustments.

Do you travel to clients' locations?

Yes, we offer on-location services for weddings, special events, and photoshoots. Travel fees may apply depending on the distance. For makeup classes, we can arrange sessions either at our studio or at your home, depending on your preference.

What brands do you use?

We work with a curated selection of professional-grade products from brands like Charlotte Tilbury, Pat McGrath Labs, NARS, Laura Mercier, MAC, Make Up For Ever, and Anastasia Beverly Hills. We also accommodate specific product preferences or sensitivities when informed in advance.

Can you accommodate group bookings?

Absolutely! For weddings and special events, we can arrange multiple artists to accommodate bridal parties or large groups. Group discounts are available for bookings of 4 or more people. Please inquire early for group availability.

What happens during a makeup class?

Our makeup classes are personalized to your needs. Typically, we begin with an assessment of your current routine and products, followed by instruction on specific techniques. You'll do half of your face under guidance, learning as you go. Classes include product recommendations and a detailed follow-up note with all techniques covered.

Do you offer airbrush makeup?

Yes, we offer airbrush makeup as an option for bridal and special event clients. This technique provides a lightweight, long-lasting finish that photographs beautifully. There is an additional fee of £25 for airbrush application.
