The Bridal Makeup Experience
The trial session
During your bridal makeup trial, we will have a brief consultation to get to know you better, discuss any concerns you may have and work out your comfort level/style of makeup. Feel free to bring with you any makeup inspiration pictures that you are drawn to. I love seeing photos of your wedding dress and other details from your wedding day that you can share with me so I can get an idea of your vision and style!
I will work with you and suggest coordinating beauty products and colours that best suit your skin tone, face and eye shape to create a personalised bridal makeup look (no cookie cutter looks here) that not only flatters your features but also enhances your natural beauty. Trials appointments generally last up to 2 hours and take place in my studio in Sliema. After the bridal trial, I make a note of all the products we used so we can recreate the exact same look for the wedding day.
The Wedding day
On your wedding day, I will travel to the location of your choice, whether a hotel, wedding venue or your home. I come with a photo and a list of the products we used during the bridal makeup trial to recreate the look for you effortlessly. If you have any special requests or tweaks that need to be done to your look, no problem, just consult with me before your makeup starts. I’ll be with you every step of the way until you are ready to depart to say ‘I do’. If you would like to add on touch-ups for the photos or beyond, please inquire about my daily or hourly rates.

The demand for my bridal makeup services during peak wedding months is very high, and for that reason dates can not be held for any period of time. My availability is offered on a first come, first served basis and are only secured by returning a signed contract along with your paid retainer.

Yes! I highly recommend doing a bridal makeup trial as it gives the client and the artist a chance to meet and experiment with what will look best on the wedding day.

During the bridal makeup trial, I will have a brief consultation with you before the trial to get to know you and discuss the desired level/style of makeup for your wedding day.

-
I always give the bride 1,5 hour for makeup and about 50 minutes for each additional makeup application. I usually tend to run 10-15 minutes ahead of schedule, if not right on time.

I will curate a detailed timeline for your day of services 1-2 months before the wedding day. This timeline includes detailed time slots for each person's services.
