Notes on makeup in Cyprus

Wedding mornings, choosing an artist, and what survives a Cyprus summer. Written for people getting married here, not for a search engine.

  • Trials

    The wedding makeup trial: what happens and when to book it

    What a makeup trial is for, when to schedule it before a Cyprus wedding, what to bring, and what changes between the trial and the wedding morning.

  • Guests

    Makeup for the mother of the bride and wedding guests

    How makeup for mothers and guests differs from bridal makeup: the place in the morning queue, mature skin in Cyprus heat, and what to tell the artist in advance.

  • Eyes

    Lashes for a wedding: strip, individual or none

  • Choosing

    Choosing a makeup artist in Limassol

    How to pick a Limassol makeup artist: reading a portfolio, the questions to ask before booking, what a trial proves, and how deposits and travel fees work.

  • Long wear
