Frequently asked questions
- 01
We select only the most quality products. Some of our favorites are Laura Mercier, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Too Faced, Charlotte Tilbury, Tarte, Forever Makeup, NARS Cosmetics, and TEMPTU.

Airbrush makeup is lighter and provides a smoother overall finish. It tends to stay put longer as it is absorbed directly into the skin rather than sitting on top of it. Airbrush makeup isn’t as creamy as regular formulas, so brides with dry skin often opt for standard makeup. When it comes to aged or wrinkled skin, regular formulas provide better overall coverage.

Yes. Our stylists are trained to understand and attend to all skin conditions safely and hygienically. We ask that you provide us with a no-makeup selfie prior to your wedding or event so that your assigned stylist can assess which products and techniques are best suited to your individual skin requirements. If have specific allergies please notify us in advance so that we may plan accordingly.

Our stylists use high-quality products designed to provide maximum staying power for outdoor, oceanfront weddings and events. During the design phase of the planning process, we will guide you as to what hair and makeup styles will and won’t go the distance depending on your wedding location, event date, and skin/hair texture. Setting spray will be applied before your stylist leaves the venue.
We recommend keeping an emergency kit on hand during your event for quick touch-ups after your stylist leaves for the day. Your emergency kit should include oil blotting papers, lipstick, translucent powder, blush, hairspray, and bobby pins.
