Wedding Day Tattoos… show them or cover them?

These are important details to think about before your big day.

• Do you want your tattoo to show, or would you prefer it covered?• How are you wearing your hair — will it naturally hide it?• What style is your dress? Will the tattoo show through or above the neckline?• If you’re having a church ceremony, is the subject of the tattoo appropriate for the setting?

If you are considering coverage, I’ll need:• A photo of the tattoo• The size and placement• The colors in the design

Tattoo coverage is an additional service, as it requires professional body makeup formulated to be long-wearing and transfer-resistant.

While I take every precaution to set the makeup properly, a disclaimer will be required, as I cannot guarantee zero transfer onto clothing.

And don’t forget… bridesmaids sometimes want coverage too 💄

Planning ahead ensures everything looks exactly how you envision in your wedding photos.

The more the merrier. Let’s make sure that the people surrounding the bride also feel as beautiful as they look. Each person who has their makeup done will receive a fresh full sized lipstick that compliments them as well as the color palette. If there is one person with a deeper or off shade lipstick it will draw the viewers attention away and take over the focus of the photo. Please make sure you tell your makeup artist “me”, if anyone in the party has any allergies or needs something ie a tattoo etc covered. See you soon♥️♥️

Supreme Court Justice Sotomayor …When people ask if I have ever done a celebrity’s makeup. My answer is that everyone who is in my chair is a celebrity to me. When SC Justice Sotomayor visited Portsmouth I had the honor of attending to here makeup before she went on stage . She was so gracious and kind. She asked me about my family and sincerely made me feel special to her in that moment. My hero ♥️♥️
