DO YOU CHARGE AND EARLY START FEE?

Early start fees for bookings begin before 7 am. In addition to our standard appointment fee, there's a surcharge of $100 per hour for early bookings. This fee helps cover the extra time and effort required to be ready before usual operating hours.

WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO PREPARE MY SKIN FOR MY APPOINTMENT?

Skincare is key! A moisturiser is the secret to a flawless face, as it creates a smooth base for your makeup. If you notice any flakiness after moisturising, it's a good idea to use a gentle exfoliant. Even if you don't see or feel any dryness or blackheads, it's still a good idea to exfoliate lightly the night before and moisturise both the night before and the morning of your appointment.

CAN YOU COVER MY WRINKLES?

The goal is to correct and enhance the appearance of skin using makeup. While makeup helps to add colour and even out skin tone, it cannot change or completely cover the texture of the skin. Sometimes applying more makeup can even exaggerate the appearance of the skin.

We’ll do our best to prepare and hydrate the skin before applying makeup to ensure that it looks as smooth and healthy as possible.

DO YOU PROVIDE ‘EYE ONLY’ SERVICES?

At this time, Darcie specialises in full face glam services and will work with you to create a customised look that highlights your eyes specifically.

WILL IT BE CHEAPER IF I BRING MY OWN LASHES OR HAVE LASH EXTENSIONS?

Prices are set, but feel free to bring your own lashes or go for extensions - it's all about what makes you feel your best!


DO YOU RECOMMEND THAT I GET EYELASH EXTENSIONS OR LASH LIFT?

It’s always preferred to work with natural lashes. They provide a blank canvas that can be shaped and styled in a way to enhance your overall look.
