Question 1

What makeup services do you offer?

Accepted Answer

I offer luxury bridal makeup, bridal previews, wedding party makeup (for bridesmaids, mothers of the couple, and guests), special occasion makeup, on-site touch-ups, and private makeup lessons. All services are available on-location at your venue or in my Staten Island studio.

Question 2

Do you travel to the wedding location?

Accepted Answer

Yes! I travel throughout NYC, New Jersey, and the surrounding areas. Travel within Staten Island is complimentary, and travel fees for other locations are based on distance, mileage, tolls, parking, and transportation of equipment. Overnight accommodations may be required for locations more than two hours away.

Question 3

Do you offer a bridal preview or trial?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Bridal previews are held in my Staten Island studio and are scheduled for 90 minutes. We'll discuss your wedding dress, hairstyle, florals, and personal style to design a look that brings your vision to life. Previews are typically scheduled 1 to 3 months before your wedding date.

Question 4

Do you offer airbrush makeup?

Accepted Answer

I specialize in traditional makeup application using professional grade products designed to look beautiful in person and photograph flawlessly. My technique is long-wearing and lightweight, giving brides the polished, skin-focused finish that airbrush is often associated with, without the airbrush limitations.

Question 5

Do you offer hair styling?

Accepted Answer

I specialize in makeup services only, but I'm happy to recommend trusted hairstylists I've worked with. Please inquire if you'd like referrals or help coordinating both services.

Question 6

Do your services include false lashes?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Customizable individual or strip lashes are included with every bridal and wedding party application, chosen specifically to complement your eye shape and overall look.

Question 7

What is your booking process?

Accepted Answer

Inquire through my bridal questionnaire to share your wedding details and check availability. You'll receive a personalized quote within 24 to 48 hours based on your party size, location, and timing. To officially reserve your wedding date, a signed contract and 50% non-refundable retainer are required.

Question 8

How far in advance should I book?

Accepted Answer

I recommend inquiring as soon as you have your wedding date and venue confirmed. Bridal dates often book 6 to 18 months in advance, especially for peak wedding season (May through October).

Question 9

What is your minimum for on-location bookings?

Accepted Answer

The booking minimum for on-location services is $685. There is no minimum number of people required, so an intimate elopement bride or solo bride is welcome.

Question 10

How long does makeup take per person?

Accepted Answer

Bridal makeup is scheduled for 1 hour and 15 minutes. Wedding party makeup (bridesmaids, mothers, and guests) is scheduled for 1 hour per person.

Question 11

What is included in bridal makeup?

Accepted Answer

Every bridal service includes a personalized makeup application, luxury skin prep and under eye treatment, customizable lashes, a décolletage glow, professional grade long-wearing products, a fully sanitary application with fresh brushes, a complimentary mini bridal touch-up kit, and a custom wedding morning makeup timeline.

Question 12

Can I book a larger bridal party?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For parties larger than six, an additional makeup artist may be added at an additional fee to keep the timeline efficient and on schedule. Travel and early morning fees may apply per artist.

Question 13

Do you offer touch-ups during the day?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On-site touch-ups are available once all services are complete for getting-ready photos and into-the-dress moments (1-hour minimum). Return touch-ups at your venue before the reception are also available, with pricing based on timing and distance.

Question 14

What products do you use?

Accepted Answer

I use professional grade products from brands trusted by the industry, chosen specifically to hold up through happy tears, hugs, dancing, and every beautiful moment in between. As a Licensed Esthetician, I select products tailored to each bride's skin type for the most flawless, long-lasting finish.

Question 15

Are you licensed and insured?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Beauty By Andrea Inc. is a fully licensed and insured professional practice. As a Licensed Esthetician, I bring expertise in skin care that goes beyond traditional makeup application, ensuring every bride feels confident and completely at ease.

Question 16

Do you have a studio?

Accepted Answer

Yes. My private studio is located at 3930 Richmond Avenue, Suite 8, in Staten Island, NY. In-studio appointments are ideal for smaller wedding parties, local brides, or anyone who prefers a quiet, private setting on the morning of their wedding.
