  • Do you offer a trial makeup session?

Every bride has to know how she will look on her wedding day, bridal trial is a must

  • Will you be present on my D-day for touch-ups?

Usually an air brush base does not need touch up; it remains for a minimum of 15hours as it is

  • What are your thoughts on airbrush makeup?

I have been working with airbrush base for the last 5 years, base with airbrush is flawless.

  • What products/cosmetics do you use?

We use Kryolan and Innovi airbrush base and colour pigments, the other favourites are makeup studio, cinema secrets and MAC.

  • I have acne marks, tattoos, and pigmentation/rosacea. How do you cover these?

Usually a good skin care routine is advised a month prior to the wedding date with Dermalogica skin care.

  •     I need false lashes. Do you offer these?

False lashes add to the beauty of eye makeup and are very important for a bride.
