Yes! I specialize in natural and minimalist makeup that is detail-orientated to subtly enhance your features. Many of my brides do not usually put makeup, so if you don’t usually put makeup, don’t worry – I will be able to help you in your journey!
For hairstyles, I particularly enjoy doing western styles that are elegant and timeless. I also love doing korean styles and xiaohongshu inspired trend forward styles.
I also specialize in sensitive skin brides as I have fortunately (or unfortunately) had many sensitive skin brides since my early bridal days. It’s important to know what ingredient in makeup and skincare e.g fragrance/ silica that you are sensitive to, so we can avoid them to prevent any flare ups!

Yes. One of the biggest misconceptions is that bridal makeup needs to be heavy to photograph well.
Professional photography captures light, colour and texture differently than what we see in the mirror. Well-executed natural bridal makeup creates enough definition for photographs while allowing your skin to still look like skin. The result is timeless, elegant photos where you look like the best version of yourself—not someone completely different.

Wedding guest service takes about 1 hour, while the bridal service takes about 2.5 hours. Bridal services are more detailed as more time is spent to prep face and hair, and fine tune the makeup and hair details. This ensures that the bride stands out on her wedding day.

I use a wide range of high quality products, including products from global brands from like Dior, Bobbi Brown, YSL, Chanel, Nars etc. I also love Korean brands that have unique makeup colours, so I also love to stock some Korean brands like 3CE and Daisique. Generally, I try to stock makeup products that are sensitive skin friendly to avoid any reactions in clients.

Yes, I do! I specialize in sensitive skin brides as I have fortunately (or unfortunately) had many sensitive skin brides since my early bridal days. It’s important to know what ingredient in makeup and skincare e.g fragrance/ silica that you are sensitive to, so we can avoid them to prevent any flare ups! I consciously build the products in my kit to cater to sensitive skin clients, and I try my best to study the ingredients of my products!

Yes, I do! I’m also an expert in single eyelid to double eyelid adjustment, as well as adjusting uneven eyelids. For adjustments, I use mesh eyelid tapes that are hardly visible even when looking down.
If you would like to adjust from single to double eyelids, do not do eyelash extensions, as my technique involves using a hard stem eyelash to create the double eyelid.
Do note that there is a small minority of eyelid that cannot be adjusted, however the difference can be made less obvious with eyeshadow/eyeliner techniques. -
Yes, of course! I strongly believe that a makeup artist should be able to cater to all skintones. I do have many tanned brides in sunny Singapore and I also have experience with Indian brides. In my early days of being a makeup artist, I worked often in e-sports with many television presenters who had tanned skintones as well as sportsmen/ sportswomen with darker and Indian skintones, so this made me well experienced in darker skintones as well!

For a short event like ROM or lunch only/ dinner only that is 2-3 hours max, you will likely only require 1 look.
For lunch, you can have 2-3 looks. The first look is usually in the morning when the groom fetches the bride. The second look can be before the lunch reception for you to look your best before meeting your guests. The third look would be during the second march-in where you have a change in your dress. Generally, brides usually get 2-3 looks for a lunch reception.For dinner, you can have 2-3 looks. The first look is usually in the morning when the groom fetches the bride.

We recommend having the makeup & hair trial around 1 month before your wedding so that your skin condition and hair length is closest to the wedding date’s.
Trials will be done on weekdays, Monday – Thursday.
-
You should allow 3-4 hours for makeup and hair trial. During the allotted time, we discuss your wedding style details and your ideas and images of your wedding day makeup and hair, that I would have requested in advance. I proceed to do the makeup and hairstyle based on our discussion. We then go over the finished look, tweaking the makeup and hair if needed. After we finalize the look for makeup and hair, we review and finalize the wedding day timeline.

Yes, absolutely. Your bridal trial is meant to be a collaborative process, and it's completely normal for your preferences to evolve after you've had time to reflect or finalise details like your wedding dress, accessories or veil.
If you'd like to make changes after your trial, simply let me know as early as possible. Sharing updated inspiration photos and letting me know what you liked—or didn't like—about the trial helps me understand your vision and prepare accordingly.
On your wedding day, we'll also have a short consultation before we begin to confirm every detail, so you can feel confident that your hairstyle still reflects how you want to look.
My goal is to create a modern, effortless bridal hairstyle that feels authentic to you, not to recreate a hairstyle exactly as it was at the trial. The trial is there to guide the final look, ensuring you feel comfortable, confident and like yourself on your wedding day.
