FAQs
(Microblading and Permanent Make-Up-related questions can be found on that page.)
Q: How do I book your services for an event?
A: First step... please fill out the contact form. I will respond within 24 hours via the email address you provide with my availability, deposit/payment information to retain my services, as well as the option to schedule a time to chat (about 15 minutes).
Q: How far in advance of my event should I book a make-up artist?
A: If you know your date, I strongly suggest to lock in your artist as soon as you are able. I will book up to a year ahead (or more for larger parties). (tip: Spring & Fall months are quickest to fill up!)
Q: Is there a minimum to book?
A: There is a minimum to travel out of the studio and/or when booking a weekend date more than two months in advance. (Some exceptions apply, please be in touch.)
Q: Where is your studio located? Do you travel?
A: Home studio is located just south of Groves Highschool, Beverly Hills, MI.
Yes, I travel all over the metro-Detroit area and Ann Arbor at well as out of state & special destinations
Q: How long is a make-up appointment?
A: Ladies Application is about 45+ minutes.
Q: What can I expect during my appointment?
A: We start with consultation, customized skin prep, color matching, pulling different products, dispensing each one onto a sanitary palette, custom-blending everything, the application itself, fitting & applying lashes, tweaking, setting, gathering up your personal touch-up goodies, and off you go...!
Q: Will it last...??
A: Absolutely! Part of what I do involves certain little mixology tricks and products to ensure exactly that. I often do large bridal parties hours before anyone walks down the aisle with a full night ahead of them and they look great all night long. And don't forget... everyone receives their own personal touch-up goodies!
Q: What if I have a LOT of people? Can you accommodate a large group?
A: Yes. For large groups &/or a restricted timeline, I can arrange for additional artists as needed.
Q: Hairstylist-- Do you have any recommendations?
A: Yes! I know several incredible stylists I love working with! Happy to make a recommendation.
Q: Q: Is gratuity included in your pricing?
A: Gratuity is never expected, but is always appreciated, thank you.
Q: What products/brands do you use?
A: I use wide array of products from pro-line brands like Kryolan, Dermablend, Viseart, Ben Nye, RCMA, Cinema Secrets, Joe Blasco, & Visiora as well as high-end consumer/artist brands like Nars, Senna, MAC, Make Up For Ever, Anastacia Beverly Hills, Inglot, Urban Decay, Stila and many many more...!
Q: Can you tell me a little about your sanitation practices?
A: Of course!
- I wear a mask. I am fully vaccinated and boosted.
- All brushes & tools have been cleaned and disinfected prior to touching each client. I use a professional grade disinfectant brush cleaner which contains citrus-based spirits (my brushes sort of smell like oranges!), and I hand-wash them with a specially formulated brush soap containing the natural anti-bacterial ingredients of honey and tea tree oil.
- Dry powders are scraped/wiped down and sprayed with alcohol between appointments.
- Creamy/wet products (foundation, concealer, cream/gel liner, lipstick/gloss, etc.) are dispensed from their containers on a clean palette. Disposable applicators are used for mascara and other products and are never "double dipped".
