These delicate loopy lashes add a creative touch to the make-up without overpowering the look.
Strip lashes, individual lashes, lower lashes, half lashes, semi-permanent lashes – there seems to be so many different types of false lashes on the market that it can start to become a little confusing for those that are new to make-up or wearing false eyelashes. Most of the looks that I do will include some sort of false lash whether they are small and natural individual lashes for brides and special occasions, or the more dramatic and creative strip lashes for stronger bridal looks and photoshoots, the right type of lashes will open up the eyes and enhance their shape and generally compliment rather than dominate the whole make-up.

Tina was truly amazing! I hired her for hair and make up for my wedding and then Reception. She was super helpful and very kind. I would definitely recommend her. Everyone loved the hair and make-up 😊
Excellent. Tina provided hair and makeup for a family wedding and the bride was very happy with the looks for all her functions. Puntual, reliable and friendly, I highly recommend.
Tina is a very talented hair and make up artist. We hired her services for my daughters prom in 2016 and again recently for my younger daughters prom in June 2019. My daughter was very fussy and stressed about how her hair and make up would look. Tina is a very calm and easy going person and came to do a trial several months in advance which gave my daughter some peace of mind. On the day, her make up and hair was perfect, she loved it and was awarded Prom Queen...so thank you Tina as the hair and make up were the definitely the crowning glory.
