Could you travel to my location for the makeup application?

Absolutely! My makeup services are on sight. A travel fee would be added into your makeup contract - considering the location is over 30+ minutes from my residence.

Do you offer makeup trials?

I do offer makeup trials in addition & prior to your bridal makeup on your wedding day (which is the most requested) if needed to ensure that you are completely satisfied with your look before your big day.

What makeup products do you use?

Only high-quality, professional makeup products from trusted brands are used to ensure the best results for my clients. I also have confidence that my education in skin care helps me achieve the perfect look for every face I touch! All makeup products are properly sanitized before use. False eyelashes are always included in my kit for each makeup service.

Would I need to make a deposit to secure my makeup appointment?

Yes, an initial deposit is required along with completing my "makeup contract" to secure your appointment (further details are included in contract). Your remaining balance is due on the day of your special event! This ensures our communication is always clear & everything operates smoothly within both parties.
