Yes. A trial is required for all bridal services. If you have a specific look you want or are unsure of what you are looking for, a trial can help put. your mind at ease. I want to provide the best service possible on your big day. In order to do so, we have to play around and figure out what looks best on you. After the trial if there are any changes you want made on your wedding day, I will make it happen.
Trials should be booked at least 1 month before the wedding day.

To ensure the best result and emphasize your beauty, here are some tips I highly recommend following before your makeup appointment.
Wear bare-chested clothing: I often apply shimmer or foundation to the décolleté and neck area. Coming in clothing that exposed these areas is not only helpful to me but ensures you wont get ny makeup on your clothes when changing.
Arrive with a clean face: Please come to your appointment without makeup on to save time on makeup removal and ensure you get the most flawless makeup application.
Inform me of any allergies or skin conditions that you may have: this way I can tailor the products and techniques to ensure your safety
