frequently asked questions
What is giulia grace's makeup style?
My style is best described as natural-soft glam focused on enhancing your features in a way that feels elevated, polished, and true to you. I’ve had extensive training in both barely-there and soft glam techniques, and I love creating looks that strike a balance between fresh and refined.
While I can absolutely create more glam or transformative styles when requested, I believe the most important thing is that you feel like yourself- just enhanced in a way that reflects what makes you feel beautiful.
how far in advance should I book?
I recommend booking as early as possible most brides reserve their wedding date 9 to 18 months in advance. Popular dates (especially Saturdays May-October) book up quickly, and I only take one wedding per day to ensure a high-touch, fully personalized experience. If you’re considering working together, I’d love to hear from you early in your planning process to secure your date!
What is required to reserve my date?
A signed contract and 30% non-refundable retainer
What is your cancellation/services reduction policy?
Cancellations or reductions in services must be made no later than 90 days prior to your wedding date. After this point, all reserved services are considered final and will be invoiced in full. This ensures I can uphold your booking, block off your date exclusively, and plan accordingly. If your party size reduces, I’m happy to adjust the proposal before that 90-day window!
what's included in each makeup application?
The bride's makeup application includes airbrush or hand applied foundation, false lashes (strips, clusters, or individuals), skin prep, under-eye masks, an ice globe face massage, and a touch up bag with blotting sheets, a lipstick touch up, a puff, and a sponge. The bridal party makeup applications include airbrush or hand applied foundation, false lashes (strips, clusters, or individuals), and a touch up bag with blotting sheets, a lipstick touch up, a puff, and a sponge.
Do you do airbrush makeup?
Yes! I’ve been trained in airbrush makeup since 2014 and use it regularly. Airbrush is one of the tools in my kit, and I choose between airbrush or hand-applied foundation based on what will work best for your skin, the weather, and your desired finish. Both techniques create a smooth, long-wearing, “airbrushed” look so you’ll look flawless either way. We’ll discuss your preferences during the preview to find the perfect fit for you!
can i book a bridal preview before signing the contract?
Bridal Previews are in-depth and reserved for booked brides only, but I'd be happy to showcase my artistry through a regular makeup appointment! These are held in-studio and will include a mini-consultation and review of your inspiration. This will not guarantee availability for your wedding date but I will update you if someone books while you are still deciding. Please visit my special event contact form to inquire!
what if i have sensitive skin or allergies?
You’re in good hands! I take extra care with clients who have sensitive skin, allergies, or ingredient concerns. During your bridal preview, we’ll go over any specific sensitivities, and I’ll tailor your product selection to ensure everything is comfortable and safe for your skin. I use high-quality, tested products and am always happy to patch test or adjust formulas as needed- you’ll never be rushed or pushed into anything that doesn’t feel right for you.
can i make changes to my party size after booking?
Absolutely- adjustments can be made up to 90 days before your wedding. After that point, services are locked in so I can finalize timelines and additional artist logistics. After 90 days prior to your wedding, services can be added not reduced depending on timeline and availability.
what if i don't wear alot of makeup? will i still feel like me?
Yes! My signature style is refined, natural-glam- always tailored to your comfort level. Whether you want a minimal glow or a more polished glam, I’ll make sure you feel like the best version of yourself.
what products do you use?
I use high-end, professional products chosen for long wear, photo-readiness, and skin comfort. Some brands include Armani Beauty, Danessa Myricks, Natasha Denona, Face Atelier, Graftobian, Kryolan, etc. I adjust selections based on skin type and personal needs.
Do you stay for touch-ups after makeup is done?
Yes, both packages include 30 minutes of on-site touch-up and buffer time. Additional touch-up hours can be booked if you'd like ongoing support through photos, first look, or even the ceremony. This can also include a second look for the reception.
