What should you bring to your bridal makeup appointment?

Bring five things to your bridal makeup appointment: 3-5 reference photos of yourself, high-resolution photos of your outfit and jewellery, arrive with a clean freshly-cleansed face, any hair accessories or extensions you plan to use, and a light snack in case the session runs long. Vinni provides everything else including product, kit and drapes.
Why do reference photos of yourself matter more than celebrity photos?
Vinni tunes the trial to look like you at your best, not like a different person. Bringing photos of yourself — not celebrities — helps her calibrate exactly what "you elevated" looks like.
How should you arrive?
Freshly cleansed skin, no makeup, hair washed the previous night. If you have SPF from the morning, remove it before you arrive because it can interfere with base primer.
What outfit and jewellery info does Vinni need?
Clear high-resolution photos of the full outfit, the border/embroidery close-up, all jewellery pieces flat-laid, and the veil or dupatta if applicable. This lets her tune palette and jewellery placement.
Should you bring anything else?
A small snack, water, and any medication you may need over 2.5 hours. The trial can extend if there’s active decision-making on shade or eye direction.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need to bring my own products?
No. Vinni’s kit covers everything — base, colours, brushes, sprays, lashes and drape.
Should I do lash lift or brow tint before the trial?
Yes, ideally at least 5-7 days before, so any settling has happened by the trial.
What if I forget to bring reference photos?
Not a problem. Vinni has references at the studio and will guide the palette based on your outfit and skin.
