Make-up Trial
Valerie has had the pleasure of working with brides from both home and abroad.
Although it is advisable to have a make-up trial, if this isn't possible she will give free in-depth consultations with brides to be - flowers, colour theme and make-up preferences will be discussed in order to create your look .
A pre-wedding trial usually lasts about two hours as it is important
that you are happy with every aspect of your make-up.
All the products used will be recorded so that your look can be recreated on the Day.
Trials are usually booked at least 6 weeks before your wedding date.
Remember, if you plan to show off a light or golden tan on your wedding day, natural or fake, please have this done for your trial so that your make-up can be colour matched accordingly.
Wedding Day
Valerie covers all areas of Lanarkshire, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Central Scotland, Argyll, Gretna, Dumfries and Northern England. She will travel to your home or wedding venue to apply your bridal make-up (additional mileage charges may apply).
She usually starts with the bridesmaids/mother of the bride and keeps the bride till last but she can easily work around your hairdresser's schedule.
Allow at least 1 hour for your make-up application and 40 minutes for other members of the bridal party.
It may not take this long but we don't want to rush an important part of the day.
Valerie is solely a make-up artist and does not do hair. Often, on larger bridal parties, the make-up artist and hairdresser work on different people at the same time to ensure everyone is ready in time.
Please contact us for a pricelist giving details of your wedding date, venue and the number in the bridal party.
False Lashes
For the novice false lashes can seem a bit intimidating.
You may have considered wearing them for your wedding day
but worry in case they will look too obvious.
Of course it's a matter of 
choice, but false lashes can
look very natural.

Valerie only use professional quality lashes
made from natural hair with an invisiband
that blends naturally into your lash line.
Lashes can easily be incorporate into
your trial so you can decide for yourself.
