Makeup Background
As a former Chanel counter manager, I've seen it all, been asked to do it all, and have accomplished it all! From teenage prom clients to distinguished clients, I have created the varied looks requested by my clients for a variety of occasions.
From the anniversary/birthday dinner date, to black tie galas, and even the private home socialite parties in River Oaks, I've been asked by countless clients to help them look their best for various special events. In addition, I've been the featured makeup artist for several weddings in the metro Houston area, ranging from smaller wedding parties with only 1-2 hour makeup service commitment to larger wedding parties with 4-6 hour service commitments. Irrespective of wedding size, rest assured that I can work with you directly or your wedding planner to ensure your makeup is done correctly and is one less thing for you to worry about on your BIG DAY!
Continuous Training Beyond Chanel, and as a certified MAC Professional, I am afforded continuous training on new product offerings, makeup styling techniques, and trends. I say this because your makeup application will reflect some of the best products and best styling techniques that are available.
As a makeup artist, I follow a customer focused 3-step process with precision clarity that guarantees you will not be disappointed with your makeup. As a professional makeup artist living in Houston (the melting pot it is), I can truly say I've been tested, and have delivered excellent results to many, many clients irrespective of ethnic background, skin pigment, or skin type. Give us an opportunity to show you how good we are...you will not be disappointed!
Wedding Makeup Preparation Process
In preparation for a wedding, the following 3-step process is followed:
1. Skin Analysis: A skin analysis will be conducted prior to the test makeup application. This is done to ensure I'm aware of any skin conditions that might impact the makeup application and/or styling requested. Doing this allows me to make note any skin issues that may necessitate additional coverage styling. 2. Makeup Test: During the makeup test,I'll experiment with foundations, colors, and artistic styling to ensure I achieve the look you want for your BIG DAY! I can also take your picture (post the makeup test), and email it to you, so you can review to ensure it meets your needs. I do this as an extra step aimed at ensuring your 100% customer satisfaction. 3. Review Expectations: We'll recap the makeup test, confirm time frame expectations, and answer any additional questions, you might have. At this point, clients will often inquire about eyelash extensions, eyebrow waxing/shaping, and other services we can do as potential add-ons.
Please Note: If eyelash extensions is something of interest, I prefer to do the eyelash test at this time (why...to ensure the client does not have a reaction to an eyelash extension application). Also, if the bride adds a full set of lashes to her wedding makeup order, I offer a $50.00 discount off the regular price of $200.00. For bridesmaids and others associated with the bride, I offer a $25.00 discount o off the regular price of $200.00.
