Securing Your Date (Effective 2020)
To secure your date, a signed contract and a 50% non-fundable retainer of the entire agreement quote is required. The number of services booked on the agreement is final, the makeup services are transferable to another person on the day of the event but the number of services booked cannot be withdrawn.
Consultation / Trial Need to Know
Please plan to book your makeup trial / consultation no later than 2-3 months before your wedding day. This will allow for plenty of time to make any changes or adjustments. Trials are held at Taryn’s home studio located in the ByWard Market in Ottawa, Ontario. A bridal trial typically takes about 1.5 hours to complete. During your makeup trial, you will receive a complete makeup application where you will be able to see how the makeup looks and wears. Taryn will also go through any questions or concerns you may have. Taryn will make specific notes of the style of makeup that is agree upon, the colors used, the likes and dislikes. A facechart will be filled out to ensure that every detail is recorded so that the look can be recreated seamlessly.
Trial Prep
On the day of your trial, please come in with:
• A clean, bare face if possible.
• White / light color top.
• Any makeup products that you wear day-to-day.
• Inspiration pictures of makeup you would like.
• A mental note or a list of details you like and dislike in a makeup application.
Note:
• If you have or plan on getting eyelash extensions, try and book a full set or a regular fill before your makeup trial.
• Please thoroughly cleanse and exfoliate your skin before the trial so your skin is in optimal condition for the makeup application.
• Please remove any unwanted facial hair before the makeup trial.
Touch-ups
A professional makeup application with quality products does not require a lot of touch ups throughout the day. We suggest that Brides and her attendants have their own pressed powder and lipstick/lip-gloss. The makeup artist can recommend a specific shade at the time of trial. Taryn is available to stay / return for touch-ups, upon request.
