MAKEUP TRIAL

During your makeup trial we will ask questions about your wedding day details & vision, as well as your skin, how you plan to wear your hair, personal style, preferences when it comes to makeup, comfort level, etc.  The better understanding we have of these details, the smoother the process will be to achieve your ideal wedding day look.

​

Our team loves open communication and feedback. Your makeup trial is a collaborative effort where you and your Artist will work together to get the look you want just right. We want to ensure you are completely in love and excited with how your wedding makeup will look!

IG_tips for a successful trial.png

  • Brows should be groomed in advance.

  • Face and lips should be exfoliated the day prior to the trial.

  • Wear a white or beige top. *Bonus points if it is a similar neckline to your dress!

  • Do not bring an entourage. Too many cooks in the kitchen = too many confusing opinions. Max of 2 people including yourself are allowed at your trial.

  • Have a makeup and skin care free face. We will assess your skin and make recommendations for products based on your skin type and texture.

  • Look for makeup inspiration photos in our Artists portfolios, online or on Pinterest and IG.

  • When looking at makeup inspiration photos, choose images that mimic your complexion, eyes and hair color.

  • Be realistic with inspiration photos. They are typically photo-shopped and filtered. Photoshop and filters are not reality..humans have pores! Also..look at what you like about the makeup, not just at the pretty girl in the photos!

  • Have a photo of your wedding dress.

  • Have wedding hair inspiration photos so we can customize your makeup to compliment your hair style.

  • Bring your favorite lip colors with you! We can either use something you already love or help to recommend a new shade for the big day.

  • Your trial is a safe place to discuss your likes and dislikes.

  • We encourage open communication and have your best interest as our priority. We want you to leave feeling like the best version of yourself and excited for your big day!
