FAQ

I use a variety of makeup in my kit! I love to use products I feel are going to achieve the most flattering look on your skin and believe that everyone should use products tailored to their needs. For weddings or occasions where makeup needs to really stay on all day to look great in photos, often times I will suggest something different than a regular day. As far as brands I love to use in my kit: MAC, Chanel, Charlotte Tilbury, Dior, Morphe, and more!

Yes! False eyelashes are always included in your makeup application unless you opt out for them. If you have an allergy to latex, I will use latex free adhesive. Please be sure to let me know of any known allergies prior to your makeup service.

I require a 50% deposit to guarantee your space for an allotted date and time, and to ensure that I won’t be missing out on other business. Cash, Venmo, Zelle, or Cash App are accepted methods of payment to complete security deposit.

Weddings or other event dates can be booked a year in advance. Prior to booking, please gather the total number of services. I require a minimum of 4 makeup services to book for a Saturday or Sunday and travel to the venue for a wedding.

Yes I do travel! If you’re here in San Diego, I will drive to your home and do on-site makeup in the comfort of your home or venue. If the location is further than 15 miles from 92111, I charge a $2.00/mile travel fee. If there is a early morning start time (Orange County, Palm Springs, Los Angeles, lodging fee will be required). If the event is out of state, I require a travel fee, lodging fee, transportation fees, as well as my standard prices in addition.

Yes I do! If you don’t want to pay a travel fee, I do offer makeup services out of my home.

At this time, I do not! I work from home.

I started doing makeup in 2007 as a creative hobby, I did my first paid job for a wedding in 2008, and graduated from cosmetology school at Northwest College of Beauty in Eugene, OR in 2015. I have worked as an esthetician at Benefit, a manager at Dior, an assistant manager for MAC, beauty advisor for Chanel, and now continue my passion doing my side business as a freelance makeup artist to have flexibility to stay home with my newborn daughter!

Yes I do. While I don't mind doing it, it creates more work and time management. As you can imagine it is a lot of work to unpack and pack my kit up to then move it to another location. In some instances, I will need to hire an assistant to help make the transition smooth and set back up on time to get everyone finished in the timely manner. There will be a $200 fee to relocate services plus any travel compensation.

My makeup style ensures it will last all day and night. In order to make that happen, I can’t throw on makeup in 30 minutes and feel confident that it won’t move for 8+ hours. For that reason, I take about 45-60 minutes for each client depending on the look.
