.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Do you perform your services on our chosen location? My setup is designed to be 100% mobile, so all I need is a large table, some space to work, electricity, and a comfortable chair to work my magic. This means I can arrive at your location, unpack, and set up in a matter of minutes. That's the beauty of being a mobile makeup artist - I get to see my clients in their natural environment, surrounded by the people and things they love. It's an honor to be part of such a special day and to help my clients look and feel their best. I do charge a travel fee from my home base in Willebroek. But let me tell you, it's well worth it to have me come to you. One thing to keep in mind is that I bring a LOT of stuff with me. So ideally, it’s great if the makeup/hair location is on the ground level, or at least accessible by an elevator. However, I've been known to tackle a few flights of stairs when needed. If that's the case, a strong person can always lend a hand.
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. How do I secure my wedding date with you? I am thrilled that you are considering me as your wedding makeup artist! To ensure that your big day goes smoothly, please fill out the form on this page with your date, location, time you need to be ready, and a brief description of your bridal party's appearance. Once I receive your completed form, I will check my availability and get back to you via email. If you decide to book with me, please note that I require a signed agreement and a non-refundable and non-transferable retainer which is 50% of the full quotation in order to secure your date. This retainer guarantees that I will not book any other clients for that specific time and date, and will be applied to the full cost of your wedding makeup services. To avoid disappointment, please book well in advance, as dates tend to fill up quickly. I can't wait to help you look your absolute best on your wedding day!
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. How do I communicate my desired look to you? I understand that choosing the perfect makeup and hairstyle for your special day can be quite a challenge. But fear not, for I am here to assist you in creating a look that is uniquely yours. To begin, if you already have a clear vision of the look you desire, I kindly request that you provide me with at least two different pictures showcasing your desired style. These pictures will serve as our starting point, allowing me to understand your preferences and bring your vision to life. Rest assured, I will have additional questions as we progress, but having these initial images will immensely aid our communication. Now, for those of you who may still be uncertain about the exact look you want or find yourself torn between a few options, worry not! Simply share a selection of looks that catch your eye. Feel free to send me a range of styles, and together we can explore each one in more detail. However, it is crucial to keep in mind that the images you provide me are meant to inspire rather than mirror. Often, the pictures found on platforms like Pinterest and Instagram have undergone extensive retouching, filtering, and enhancements to achieve an unattainable level of flawlessness. So while I promise to create a stunning look for you, it is essential to embrace your natural beauty and understand that you will not look identical to the models in these pictures. Ultimately, my goal is to make you feel like the most radiant version of yourself on your wedding day. With your input and my expertise, together we will create a makeup and hairstyle that reflects your unique personality and enhances your natural features. So, let's embark on this exciting journey together, and make your dream wedding look a reality.
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. When do I schedule my bridal preview with you? As a professional makeup artist and hairstylist, I understand how important it is for brides-to-be to feel confident and beautiful on their wedding day when it comes to the perfect dress, makeup and hairstyle. That's why I always advise scheduling a dress fitting day that allows us to do a trial of your wedding makeup and hairstyle. Schedule your dress fitting in the late afternoon, leaving your morning free for a trial of your wedding makeup and hairstyle. This way, you can see how the makeup and hair will complement the dress, and we can still make any necessary changes on your beautiful big day. During the trial, make sure to wear a shirt/top in the same color as your wedding dress or with a similar neckline. This helps bring the entire vision to life and makes any necessary changes easy to spot. As a precaution, let me know if you have any allergies that might affect the makeup or hairstyling products so I can use the right ones for your skin and hair. While you're welcome to invite people to your trial, keep in mind that more opinions don't always mean better. Focus on your own vision, and trust me to make you look stunning on your big day.
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. How do I prep leading up to my preview/wedding day? Your wedding day is one of the most special and important days of your life. You want to look your absolute best and radiate confidence and happiness. But to achieve that, it's important to have a proper skincare regimen. Don't rely on makeup alone to give you flawless skin - it's all about the preparation steps! But these steps don't happen overnight - it takes consistency and patience. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water to hydrate your skin from within. Exfoliate regularly to slough away dead skin cells and reveal brighter, smoother skin. And don't forget to show your skin some love with face masks, facial massages, and anything else that makes you feel pampered. It's not just your face that deserves attention, though. Take care of your body as well by regularly exfoliating and moisturizing. Your skin will thank you by glowing on your wedding day (and any other day, for that matter!). Hair care is equally important. Make sure you attend your hair trial and wedding day with clean, healthy hair. Don't use any styling products beforehand - I want to work with a blank canvas. And if you're going on vacation or spending time outside in the days leading up to your trial or wedding day, make sure to wear plenty of sunscreen. Sunburned skin can make it hard for makeup to stick, and nobody wants that! So, start taking care of yourself now - your wedding day will be here before you know it. By following these simple steps, you'll feel confident, beautiful, and ready to say "I do"!
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. When do I schedule my beauty appointments before my wedding day? From experience I cannot stress enough the importance of being cautious when considering any beauty treatment before your wedding day. Your wedding day is undoubtedly one of the most important and cherished days of your life. It is a day that you meticulously plan for, ensuring that every aspect is flawless and perfect. While some treatments may promise long-lasting results and a picture-perfect appearance, it's crucial to remember that your wedding day is not the time to experiment. I've witnessed too many horror stories where brides ended up with less than desirable results from these treatments. Crooked lashes, crusty eyebrows, or extensions in the wrong shade can be a nightmare that you simply do not need on your carefully planned day. To avoid any mishaps, it is highly recommended that you try out these treatments weeks or even months in advance to ensure that everything turns out just right. Luckily, there are plenty of alternatives that can help you achieve similar results without the risks associated with more permanent options. Temporary makeup and hairstyling can work wonders, providing you with the same desired effects. The only exception to this rule would be brow waxing, which can be done by a skilled professional using tweezers a few days before the wedding if needed. For eyebrows, there are countless tools available to help you fill them in naturally or with a bolder touch, allowing you to have complete control over your desired look. Individual false eyelashes are another fantastic option I always have in my kit, capable of adding that extra oomph to make your lashes pop. And when it comes to hair, fear not! There is a wide array of high-quality clip-in hair extensions that can handle the heat of a curling iron, allowing you to achieve the hairstyle of your dreams. So remember, when it comes to preparing for your wedding day, it's better to err on the side of caution. Embrace the power of temporary makeup and hairstyling to ensure that you look and feel your absolute best without the fear of any last-minute beauty mishaps. After all, your wedding day is all about celebrating love, happiness, and looking and feeling radiant as you embark on this new chapter of your life.
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Do you also do a natural version of makeup for adolescents or younger children? Ofcourse I do. This experience is not only about the makeup, but also about making your child feel special and included in the occasion. We involve them in the preparation process and make sure they get pampered too. For younger children, I focus on enhancing their natural features and keeping the makeup light and natural-looking. I want to bring out their innocence and beauty while also promoting a healthy self-esteem and confidence. It's important for them to know that makeup is just an accessory and that true beauty comes from within. We discuss the look beforehand and make it age appropriate so it is clear for everyone what the final result will be. In the end, my goal is for them to feel special and confident, while still being themselves. And it's always a joy to see their happy faces and excitement when they look in the mirror after the makeover!
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Do you also speak dutch? While Dutch is my first language, I have taken the initiative to ensure that all aspects of my online presence, including my website and social media platforms, are presented in English. This conscious decision allows me to cater to my diverse and international customer base, ensuring that everyone can easily understand the information provided. I do have a solid understanding of French but expressing myself in this language can sometimes be challenging. Thus, to avoid any misunderstandings or misinterpretations, I kindly encourage the use of Dutch or English in conversations.
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Do you cover tattoos? No, at the moment I don’t. There is nothing on the market right now that both visibly covers your tattoo and that will stay on all day without transferring color to your carefully chosen dress - especially if there is a possibility of friction between your dress and the broad area of your tattoo.
.................................................................................................................................................................................................................. Do you cater to destination weddings? Yes, I absolutely love them. Whether your destination is far away or not so far away, the necessary adjustments to my kit will be made in order to make sure any transportation mode is possible. This is to make sure you and your bridal party will still look flawless under any circumstance. Fill in the contact form with all the information you currently possess and you will be provided with a personalised quotation for the requested services. We will discuss transportation, accomodation etc. to make sure everything is stressfree and very clear.
