Jessica McFadden Makeup Artistry
How long will my makeup last?
With proper care your professionally applied makeup will last the duration of your wedding. However, expect to do minor touch ups of your lipstick after kissing, drinking and eating. Your perspiration levels and skin type will determine whether or not you need to touch up your powder or use blotting paper to remove any excess oil.
What products do you use?
My kit is packed with highend skincare and cosmetics. These products are ultra premium to provide my clients with flawless results that photograph beautifully. These products are what I personally use and trust, ranging from Estee Lauder, MAC, Anastasia Beverly Hills and Natasha Denona, to name a few.
I have very sensitive skin, are your products safe?
My kit includes products which are are hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested, so it is highly unlikely that you will have an allergic reaction. I have many clients with sensitive skin who have never experienced any problems using these products. If you are particularly concerned I would recommend a trial.
FAQ
Do you apply false eye lashes?
Yes, if you would like false eye lashes applied, we can achieve a look that you are comfortable with. I believe lashes enhance the eyes and help complete the makeup look. I use all sorts of lashes, from full strip to individuals.
What can I do to prepare my skin for special occasion makeup?
I recommend exfoliating, using a face mask and hydrating moisturiser the night before and don't forget about your lips! Exfoliating with a toothbrush or wet face washer will do the trick, then apply lots of lip balm. If you have time or if you are getting ready for your wedding day a facial or microdermabrasion a week or two before, to ensure that skin looks and feels its best is always a good idea. Consult with the professional who is performing the procedure if you have any concerns.
Have eyebrows waxed or threaded about a week before to allow time for any irritation to subside.
Are there travel costs?
A travel fee may be applicable, depending on location.
How long will the makeup application take on the day?
It all depends on how many people will be getting ready on the day. I like to allow an hour per person, to ensure your day flows smoothly.
