What areas do you
serve?
Our main
headquarters are in Owings Mills, MD. For many
years, we serviced only New York , Miami, Los
Angeles, and Washington, D.C. But through the
years, we expanded rapidly nationwide with the
most talented makeup artists joining our team.
We are wherever you live!
What products do you use?
We use
only the best products, every fine cosmetics
line you can think of. Many of our artists use
our own skin care line -- b natural cosmetics.
We bring everything to you! The most highly
allergic skin has no problem with our products,
but if you prefer to use your own products, that
will be fine also.
How
much advanced notice do I need to give you for
my wedding, special event, commercial photo
shoot, film, etc.?
For many
events, we book up months in advance, but since
we have so many makeup artists and hairstylists
who represent us, it is possible to accommodate
our clients on short notice as well. However, it
would be best to call us at (888) 818-5995 just
as soon as you know that you will need a makeup
artist or hair stylist for any upcoming event.
For
my wedding, do I really need a trial makeover?
Our
makeup artists/hairstylists are so experienced
in all aspects of makeup artistry and hair
styling that for weddings, just as for major
commercial photo shoots, they will know just
what to do after meeting and speaking with you.
They can duplicate any look for any photo you
have selected. This can be done the day of your
wedding. Nonetheless, about half of our clients
choose to receive trial makeovers and about half
do not. We come to your location for the trial
makeovers, as well. They can be scheduled
weekends or weekdays, whichever is best for you!
A trial makeup and hair is certainly worth your
peace of mind.
How
long does it take to do a makeover?
Typically, both updo and a makeover each will
average about one half hour to forty-five
minutes per person. Some will take a bit shorter
or longer, but our artists will take all the
time that is needed to achieve the desired and
your most beautiful look possible. We schedule
plenty of time so there is never any rushing or
unnecessary stress! It is always a fun
experience.
What happens if I have an extra person who would
like a makeover at the last minute?
This
will often happen. A family member who thought
that she did not need or want the makeover at
first, will see the incredible way that the
others look and she will want to look that great
as well. Should this situation occur, we would
make every effort to accommodate the request
provided that the time does not interfere with
the bride's schedule or with another client's
event. So of course it is usually best to know
your final count in advanced.
What about
tipping?
There are no fees (except in rare situations)
for travel or extra long hair. Tip as you would
in any salon when you are thrilled with the
outcome.
How long will my
makeup last?
Your
makeup will last for several hours, however, the
exact amount of time depends of several factors.
For example, a sobbing mother will not look as
fresh as her dry-eyed sister, of course. In
general, our professional makeover last from the
first photo to the last dance. With our
state-of-the-art special application techniques,
the makeup will have wonderful and lasting
staying power. The only products necessary for
touch ups after 3-4 hours will be lip gloss and
powder. Marlene Kurland Make-Up Agency sells a
fantastic S.O.S. package for brides and gifts
for their attendants.
Why
can't I just use my regular makeup for my
special event or wedding?
Usually,
any special event or wedding means that many
photographs will be taken. Aside from the fact
that you will want to look your very best for
the entire evening in person, the lasting photos
will be apart of your life forever. Professional
photographic makeup is different from your
regular makeup. Additionally, special
highlighting, contouring, bringing out your best
features, and lighting are just some of the
issues your
artist will be addressing to insure that you
look your loveliest. Remember all eyes will be
on your radiant face all night!
