Cynthia did my make up for both my ceremony and reception. She made me the BEST VERSION OF MYSELF, which is EXACTLY what I wanted. My husband's jaw dropped when he saw me for the first time and that was all I was hoping for--but I got so many compliments from everyone and I love looking back at our photos too. My make up rocked! And working with Cynthia is a total joy. I loved her so much that I've recommended her to a bunch of my clients who have also used her for their wedding day make up--and they too loved her. She is great at what she does!!!

WHAT IS THE COST FOR THE TRIALS?
Trials are $85 and done in my home studio in Bolingbrook, usually on Sundays because most weddings are Friday and Saturday.

WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN AIRBRUSH AND REGULAR MAKEUP?
Please refer to my blog for a detailed explanation: http://cynthiasally.blogspot.com/2009/04/regular-vs-airbrush-makeup.html

WHAT PAYMENT OPTIONS DO YOU ACCEPT?
Cash only but checks are accepted if one person is paying for all services.

WHAT DO I NEED TO PROVIDE ON THE DAY OF THE EVENT?
I need a table to set up, an outlet nearby (I bring an extension cord), good lighting and most importantly, a high stool. Most hotels will bring one up to the room if requested.

HOW SOON SHOULD I BOOK MAKEUP SERVICES?
I start booking weddings up to a year in advance so the sooner, the better!

I'M SCARED TO GET MY MAKEUP DONE!
There are some people who have been traumatized by getting their makeup done and I can honestly tell you that it was most likely because they went to a makeup counter and the salesperson tried to sell them every single product they sell so they put it all on their face. There is a difference between Makeup Artists and Salespeople :) I like for my clients to feel like themselves but a cleaner, prettier version of themselves. I always suggest that you do a trial with your makeup artist beforehand just to be sure that you are comfortable.
