FAQs

Why you need a makeup artist?
     - Makeup artists can apply makeup with high details and deliver a professional result.
     - Makeup artists understand colour ways and how to enhance your features.

It’s my first time going to a makuep artist, What shall I do?
     - You should have an idea as to what level of ehancement you need and the look you would like to acheive for example "natural look” or "a makeover”.
     - You should know the colour and style of your dress and accessories.
     - Be open minded to your makeup artist and trust his or her opinion and suggestions. If you want to achieve a very natural look like wearing nothing on your face ...maybe you don’t need a makup artist at all!
     - You should realise when you have makeup on your face, most of the time you can’t see yourself but the others or the public can. For this reason you should trust your makeup artistst and have an open mind about the style, colours and look.
    - We can understand that you may feel anxious & nervous if this is your first time with an makeup artist.  Take a deep breath, try to calm down and relax duiring the service, be open minded to your makeup artist's sugestions in term of colours and styles. Try to sit back, relax and enjoy your makeup service!

What should I do and not do during the makeup session?
     - You should not be late and rush your makeup artist. Please remember we are giving service but we not a servant, if you are late and rush your makeup artist we may have to stop the service. Your deposit payment will not be refunded.
     - Your should sit, relax on your makeup artist’s chair and do not engage your makup artist to speak too much as your makeup artist will need to concentrate working on your face.
     - Your makeup artist will need your face to be stable as he or she will need your face as the stable base to draw eyebrown, eyeliner and lipstick. This is why you should not move your face too much.
     - Follow your heart and tell your makeup artist and hairstylist about the theme of the makeup and hairstyle you wish to achive.
     - Do not let your friends decide for you what you should look like.
You should not keep looking at and mirror and checking the progess of your makeup. Your makeup artist will not like this at all and this can slow down the job.

How can I prepare before my makeup session?
     - Please let us know what your skin tone is. When your appointment is confirmed you can send an email to us with your current facial picture to me that will be the best for my preparation.
     - For Makeup For Men / Drag Makeup / Male To Female Makeup please shave about 2 - 3 hours before your makeup to avoid sensitive skin, bleeding etc.
     - Before we arrive, you will need to wash your face, apply very little moisturiser (just enough to avoid dry skin) and avoid wearing any type of makeup nor cream that has colour.
     - You should wear a low collar shirt/t-shirt or something that can be easily to take off if you plan to get changed after your makeup session.

How long does it take for my makeup session?

     - Most of my makeup are long lasting porfessional products and for the best result:

     - Dry your face gently, apply toner and moisturiser, then you are done.

Shall I wear my wedding dress beofore my makeup and hairstyle ?
     - No, you should not wear your wedding dress before your makeup and hairstyle.
     - Most of the wedding dresses are white and the makeup can go on it easily. They are quite tight as well and we believe you will not feel comfortable to have your wedding dress on during your makeup and hair session.

What shall I wear during my bridal makeup and hair session?
     - You should wear something that you can easily change later like a t-shirt or a bathrope. It will help the makeup artist to apply makeup on your neck and upper chest areas easily.
     
How long should I leave time for putting my wedding dress on?
     You should allow at least 30 minutes extra (beside the time for your makeup and hair) for putting your dress on. This can be very useful for your makeup artist and your hairstylist as they can give you a final retouch before your first apperance to the wedding crowd.

How long does it take for my makeup to settle?
     - Your makeup will take about 1 hour to settle which means when we finish your makeup it may look a bit stronger than you expect. You must give it 1 hour to settle. It will look perfect after 1 hour.

How long does my bridal makeup last on my face?
     - It depends on your skin condition, oily or dry skin. If you have oily skin your makeup will last less longer than dry skin. Your makeup normally lasts about 6 hours before it’s getting quite oily. When we finish your makeup we will spray makeup setting spray on your face to help it to last longer about 8 - 10 hours. You may need a touch up every 2 - 3 hours.

Which will you do first, my bridal makeup or my hair?
     - We will normally start working on your makeup first as your makeup will take a bit of time to settle. Your makeup will take about 1 hour to settle which means when we finish your makeup it may look a bit stronger than you expect. Then we will start working on your hair which takes about about 1 hour. When you hair is finished you makeup will settle and looks perfect !

Who will start first, myself or birdesmaides if it’s a group booking?
     - If there is a group booking James Adisai normally works with his hairstylist colleague. We will set up 2 work stations, one for makeup and one for hairstyle.
     - We will normally start working with the bride’s makeup first as you are the most inmportant lady of the day. Meanwhile James's hairstylist colleague will work on your bridesmaid’s hair.
     - Then we can swap you with the bridesmaid, so you can do your hair with James's hairstylist colleague and James will do makeup for your bridesmaid.
