Skin Prep
- Keep your regular skincare routine — avoid trying new products the week before
- Skip facials, peels, or waxing within 2–3 days of your appointment
- Come in with clean, moisturized skin and no makeup
Before Your Appointment
Planning ahead
A short trial and a little skin prep make wedding-day makeup smoother and longer-lasting.
Timing
- Book a trial 4–6 weeks ahead of your wedding date
- Allow 60–90 minutes for a trial, longer for full bridal application
- Confirm your event start time so touch-up timing can be planned
On the Day
- Bring reference photos and your outfit colors
- Wear a button-down or wide-neck top to avoid disturbing your makeup when changing
- Share any skin sensitivities or product preferences in advance
What To Expect
Long-wear, camera-ready finish
Bridal application uses long-wear, photography-friendly products layered for your specific event timing and lighting. A small touch-up kit recommendation is shared so you can refresh your look later in the day if needed.
When sharing inspiration, point out what you like about each reference rather than expecting an exact copy. Consider the ceremony setting, photography lighting, outfit colors, jewelry, hairstyle, and the level of coverage you feel comfortable wearing. Mention sensitivities and contact-lens use before the appointment so the plan can account for them.
