Question 1

Do I need to book a Trial session?

Accepted Answer

Yes.  A trial is recommended for 3 main reasons:

• It gives you peace of mind on the wedding day.
 • You have control on the exact look you want & testing hair to see how it works and lasts.
 • It saves precious time on your wedding morning.

My advise is to book in early. Professional makeup artists can get booked up a year in advance. Makeup trials are best 2-4 months before your wedding date and held on MONDAYS, TUESDAYS & WEDNESDAYS.

Question 2

What is the process for booking?

Accepted Answer

For the Trial
1. Complete the Enquiry Form (https://www.terripace.com/contact-8)with as much information as possible. 
2. We find a date for your trial and an invoice is emailed to you.  A deposit of £20 is required to secure the date & the full payment is due 1 week before your trial date.
3. I come to you to test out preferred looks, documenting all products for the final look.  Then you'll have 3 days to decide if you'd like me as your MUA for your wedding.

Wedding Day
1. I'll email the contract and invoice to you. A £50 deposit is required to secure the wedding day.  Full payment is to be made 1 month before your wedding day.
2. I'll work out a time schedule for all bridal party members for your approval with any adjustments.
3. On the day, I'll text you I'm on my way for your re-assurance and do your makeup as per the trial.  Helping with any last minute things.  Leaving you with the lipstick chosen at the trial.

Question 5

Do you do Bridal Hair?

Accepted Answer

I'm currently doing a bridal hair course (2025) so I’m keeping my prices low while I gain experience. I can only offer simple styles, perfect for those looking for a budget friendly look. As I continue to learn, my skills will grow. Please get in touch to discuss your bridal hair.

Question 6

How do timings work for the Wedding Day?

Accepted Answer

I'll work out a time schedule based on your services for the day in advance for your approval.  This will include time slots for each of your bridal party's services too.

If you have a separate hair stylist, I can liaise with them before the day to ensure a smooth working plan.

Early arrival is usually a good idea so that nothing is rushed.  Having done a previous trial session, the wedding day application is more straight forward as the planning has already been taken care of.

Question 7

Do I need to provide anything?

Accepted Answer

A table or cleared surface to lay out my kit with 2 chairs.  
Access to an electrical plug.
Mirror if possible.

The makeup station is to be held in one area, preferably near a window for natural light.  That way I don't need to waste  precious time packing kit away and going to another room/area if others are requiring makeup.

Question 8

Do you cover skin conditions such as vitiligo, pigmentation or tattoos?

Accepted Answer

I do not want to change anything about you, but if you do wish to have any skin conditions covered, i.e. rosacea, tattoos, vitiligo, scars, or pigmentation it is essential to request this at the trial session as it includes a totally separate kit. 
 
I can provide this for you at your trial session for an additional cost.

Question 9

Will I still look like myself?

Accepted Answer

The answer to this is always "Yes"  I will have made a good connection with you prior to your big day with essential questions and a trial for your re-assurance.

Makeup is to enhance and define a person's natural features, not to cover or change someone's identity.

Question 10

Are strip lashes included?

Accepted Answer

No. Strip lashes are upon request in advance at an extra cost of £10 per person and will be tried at the trial appointment.

If you wish to have false lashes, it is your responsibility to inform me of any glue (latex) intolerance.

Question 11

How do I pay?

Accepted Answer

Payment must be made via bank transfer to the business account specified on the invoice by the due date. Please note that appointments will not be attended unless full payment has been received. A receipt will be emailed upon payment confirmation.
