Frequently Asked Makeup & Hair Questions
Frequently. Asked. Questions.
Here are some of the most asked questions that we get daily:
Q: What's the difference between traditional makeup & airbrush makeup?
A: Great question! Here is the break down:
-Traditional Makeup: We use quality liquid foundation to apply traditional makeup with. The feeling of this is generally slight heavier in feeling, but can create a quick flawless coverage, leaving you looking beautiful all day.
Who is this for?:
your skin type:
-acne prone, this includes large pores, and heavy acne breakouts
-uneven skin texture, this includes deep scar build up.
your style of makeup:
-Medium to Dramatic makeup application.
-Airbrush Makeup: is a form of the newest way to apply foundation. We use a compressor that distributes air evenly. Airbrush liquid foundation is applied through an airbrush machine, and sprayed on the face. The feeling of this is very light, and can create a light to medium coverage. Wearability is normally 8+ hours or more. What to know if you are doing airbrush makeup for the first time? It will hurt a lot....were just kidding, just checking if your still paying close attention...it will feel like a nice mist of cool air, some feel like they are being tickled in the face, but generally it feels nice.
Who is this for?
your skin type:
-clear, or you have minimum blemishes and breakouts
-slightly uneven skin tone
your style of makeup:
-natural to medium makeup application.
Sometimes in unique situations, we will use both traditional makeup + airbrush makeup together. This will provide the ultimate coverage (for those who need it) without being weighed down too much.
To sum it all up: the real difference is how you want to look and feel :)

Step 3: Use a non-alcoholic toner/exfolliate.
Step 4: Eye Cream.
Step 5: Treatment.
Step 6: Moisturize.

Q: How long will my makeup & hair last?
A: Your makeup & hair should last you the whole day (about 8-12 hours), It really depends on the person. You might need to touch up from time to time, such as if you get a little shine on the forehead, put some powder/blot it. Lips might not last as long, due to kissing, drinking, or eating something, you can easily retouch with lipstick and gloss. Hair might need a little pick me up from hairspray due to humid weather, or excessive movement.
Q: How long does it take for you to do my makeup? And hair?
A: For the brides, it will take up to 45 minutes hour for makeup, and for all other attendants, it will take 20 minutes for makeup. If you are doing hair as well, you will tack on an additional 20-30 minutes (depending on complexity of hairstyle, and length of hair). Hair will need to be washed with Shampoo only, completely dried, and straighten before the artist arrives. Additional fees will be applied if not done so.
Q: If I bring in a tear sheet of the makeup & hair I want for my wedding, will you be able to copy it?
A: Yes, we can try to replicate the photo as close as we can (if you chose to have it exactly like the picture), however, we cannot guarantee that it will look exactly like the picture. Keep in mind that the picture is a person who might have completely different shape eyes, nose, lips, skin, hair, etc, as you do. But we can tailor it to fit your needs, and compliment your features.
