I use a selection of professional make-up brands suitable for different skin types. My foundations from Dior, Illamasqua and MAC are chosen for their longevity and flawless coverage. All other products for face, eyes and lips are a range of Laura Mercier, Dior, Nars, Tom Ford, Bobbi Brown and MAC.
Trials are usually recommended 6-8 weeks before the wedding. You’ll have had final fittings for your dress and will be confident about the style that you’re after. Your hair will also be representative of the length on your wedding day. I’m very happy to arrange a trial earlier than this date however, and second trials can be arranged closer to the date if required.
I accept bookings 12 months in advance. Please note that last minute bookings are sometimes available so please just get in touch as I may be able to help!
I can do as many separate trials as you want. Trials are not compulsory for bridesmaids and Mothers of the Brides but I do ask that you send over some pictures of your bridesmaids and examples of styles that you would like for them so that I can fully prepare timings for the day.
A trial for the bride alone lasts around 2 hours. We will discuss the details of your wedding - dress, accessories, flowers, theme etc. We will also discuss what make-up you would normally wear, (if any) and will discuss any ideas we both have and then complete your look until you are happy, making any changes until perfect for you. If your bridesmaids, mother or any other guests would like a trial they can have theirs at the same time or book an additional appointment at a later date.
For the trial please have clean, dry hair and if possible have any hair accessories and veil if you are planning to wear any. If you have an idea of what you would like then it may be useful to cut out some pictures from magazines or show me a Pinterest board to help me to plan out a few styles for you before the trial.
Please let me know at least 4 weeks in advance if you need to cancel your booking. Please note that cancellations within the 4 weeks will incur a loss of your deposit, and an extra fee of £50. Cancellations within 10 days of your wedding date will be charged in full. I ask that any cancellations are made via telephone AND email where possible to save any confusion. Payment of a deposit and sending a signed booking form means that you accept these terms.
I can take a bank transfer or cash.
I am fully qualified with diploma's in Fashion, Editorial, Media Makeup, Fashion Styling, Hair Styling and trained at the Prestigious School of Makeup which has a reputation as one of the World's finest training providers in this field.
