Lillybeth (a Beautiful Education)

10 Things You'll Love About Lillybeth:

1) Exclusively mobile – makeup in your home, hotel room or in a cute home salon, means your ‘beautiful education’ is private and convenient.

2) Not salon or store-based, means you get independent advice and unbiased product recommendations, rather than from within one brand.

3) Qualified – not a beauty therapist who also does makeup, but trained in a dedicated makeup-only course.

4) Fulltime makeup artist - not a 'hobbyist' or part-timer means makeup is her #1 focus.

5) Teaching oriented – If you book Lillybeth for a makeup lesson or hen's night makeup workshop, it's unlike a makeup consultation at a chemist or department store where the salesperson does it for you. If you book a private or small group makeup lesson it is fully hands on and interactive – you apply your own makeover using professional techniques.

6) Colour seasons - Lillybeth understand and works within the colour seasons and principles used internationally by colour & image consultants, to get a look that suits the individual.

7) Intelligent product choice - All products in Lillybeth's kit are checked against www.beautypedia.com, a professional product review site based on what ‘really works’, not just hype or advertising claims.

8) BOP-based, Lillybeth's knowledge of what’s available to her customers in the world of beauty in Tauranga is local knowledge so she can refer you to other great local businesses. Plus, since she's well- known locally, you can ask many other wedding vendors about her reputation before booking.

9) Personal History - Having crappy skin from a young age meant Lillybeth used makeup as a necessity for many embarrassing years, so can understand other’s skin and image issues.

10) Motivated and ambitious. Lillybeth's goal for 2011 is to make up 300 faces in – check her website to see her current total (at time of writing = 373)! Lillybeth and her team are motivated to show up on time, stick to the look they agreed on and do all the things you’d expect from a fab makeup artist because they have a reputation to uphold. When you find a wedding vendor who is thoroughly invested in their work, you’re onto a good thing!

Testimonials

I wasn't going to have my make-up done for my wedding after a bad experience in the past. Lillybeth was professional and put my mind at ease and listened what to what I wanted and adjusted the look on the day. I was really happy with the look and I would reccommend her if you are looking for a professional make-up artist for your big day!!"

Thanks once again for making me look so fab! My make up stayed all night, and I’m so pleased to say I looked amazing in all my photos! All thanks to you. You were totally lovely, and I’ve never felt so pretty! So thanks a million for helping make my night."
