Touch up kits are handy little bags for small little fix ups you need to make when on-the-go!
They come with a small sample of a lipstick of your choice, blotting sheets, mascara wand, tissues and mints!
Touch up kits are available to purchase with any service ($5)
WHEN SHOULD I HAVE MY TRIAL?
Trials are recommended around 2-3 months before the wedding so the wedding day is stress free.
I tell my clients to try book when they have a special occasion to make the most of their makeup.
Engagement parties/shoots or hens do’s are always a popular choice.
