As part of your wedding make up package I also offer a skin consultation in the run up to your big day. Trials are held at a Chester salaon and the local area.
Once we go over various factors it allows me to envision your special day and create a makeup look not only to suit you but to work harmoniously with your entire day. After the mini client consultation, I begin the client’s makeup application, being sure to stop and ask questions along the way so that my client feels comfortable with the look I am creating for them. After we complete the look, I ask my client if there are any things they would like to change. There is always room for small adjustments, but the trial is always limited to one makeup application.
After the look is executed, I always suggest for my clients to wear the complete look throughout the day, so that they can get a sense of how the hair and makeup hold up through daily activities. After all, you’ll most likely be wearing your makeup for 8-10+ hours on your wedding day, so why not test it out to see how well it stays in place for extended periods of time! You may wish to have your trial done sooner and before some of the finer details have been chosen to double check I am the right makeup artist for you - and that is completely fine! Once details are finalised we can always arrange another trial to tie everything in together to create your final look. Get in Touch ⇾

Please arrive with no makeup on, if you are a makeup wearer please have a photo of yourself with every day makeup on and an image of what you would do for a special occasion.
I always recommend the bride wears a similar colour top to their dress (white/off-white/blush/champagne). This plays a huge part in seeing how the makeup sit against a lighter colour.
Bring your wedding day jewellery if you have already have some.
