Strip lashes take 10 to 15 minutes to apply with lash glue. Individual lashes require 45 to 60 minutes for a full set. Strip lashes last one day; individuals stay 2 to 3 weeks. Hypoallergenic glue lowers irritation risk. Always patch-test glue on the wrist 24 hours before application.
Use micellar water or oil-based cleanser within 12 hours of the event. Avoid scrubbing. Apply a fragrance-free moisturizer after cleansing. Skin may feel tight or show minor redness for 24 hours. Skip active ingredients like retinol for 2 days after heavy makeup to let the barrier recover fully.
Look for at least 10 recent photos taken in natural daylight. Check skin tones close to yours and lash density. Note brushwork on the jawline and temples. A consistent portfolio across 3 years signals reliable technique. Avoid edited or filtered images that hide texture.
Long events in venues above 24 °C shorten wear by 1 to 2 hours. Humid climates above 60 percent require waterproof primers and silicone-based setting sprays. Ask the artist about specific formulas for tropical or summer weddings. Bring blotting papers rated for makeup.
A signed contract should list service type, date, hours, total fee, and refund rules. Public liability insurance of at least 1 million covers allergic reactions and stains. Pay deposits by traceable methods. Keep a printed copy of every chat and approval email for safety.
Brushes and sponges must be cleaned with brush soap between clients. Disposable applicators are used for mascara and lip product. The artist should carry alcohol spray for shared palettes. Check that tools arrive in a closed case. Dirty tools spread bacteria and cause eye infections within 24 to 48 hours.
Request a patch test 48 hours before the service. Common allergens include fragrance, parabens, and nickel in metal compacts. Redness, itching, or swelling within 24 hours signals a reaction. Carry antihistamines if you have sensitive skin. Insist on seeing unopened product tubes to confirm expiration dates and batch numbers.
Ask about years of experience, sanitation procedures, and product brands used. Request a portfolio with at least 10 recent photos in similar lighting. Confirm travel fees, parking costs, and cancellation policy. Ask who handles touchups during the event. Clear answers on these points prevent miscommunication and surprise charges.
Test 3 swatches along the jawline in daylight, not store light. Undertone matters: warm, cool, or neutral. A wrong match shows grey or orange casts on the neck. Request samples to wear for 6 hours before final approval. Coverage should even without heavy layering.
Request a sealed touch-up kit with 3 ml foundation, mini powder, cotton buds, and 2 ml setting spray. Confirm the artist will stay for 15 minutes of on-site retouching. A printed shade reference card helps future touch-ups by other people during the event.
