Makeup is a delicate art which when done right can completely transform your looks and enhance your features. From parties to weddings, you deserve to look your finest on any occasion and our makeup artists are here to transform you for your big days.

How Long Will My Professional Makeup Last?
Professional makeup is designed to provide beautiful, long-lasting wear throughout your event. Your artist will prepare the skin and select products suited to your skin type to help your makeup remain fresh for as long as possible.
Lip products may require touching up throughout the day, particularly after eating or drinking. For longer events, your makeup artist can advise you on anything worth keeping with you for quick touch-ups.


What Should I Do Before My Makeup Appointment?
Beautiful makeup starts with well-prepared skin. In the lead-up to your appointment, keep your skin hydrated, drink plenty of water and continue with your normal gentle skincare routine.
Avoid introducing strong new skincare products immediately before your event, and if you’re planning a brow wax or other facial treatment, speak with our team about the best timing before your makeup appointment.
On the day, arrive with clean skin unless our team advises otherwise. Feel free to bring photos of your outfit, accessories or makeup inspiration so your artist can understand the overall look you’re hoping to achieve.


Which Makeup Brands Does The Beauty Base Use?
Our professional makeup artists work with a selection of premium professional beauty brands, including M.A.C, Anastasia Beverly Hills, Charlotte Tilbury, NARS, Estée Lauder, Kosas, Mecca Max, Saint Minerals, O Cosmedics and more.
Rather than using the same products on every guest, we’ll select products, coverage and finishes according to your skin type, desired look and occasion.
If you have particularly sensitive skin, allergies or known ingredient sensitivities, please let our team know before your appointment so we can discuss your individual requirements.


Junior Makeup for Formals, Dance Concerts & Special Events
Big occasions aren’t just for adults! Our Junior Makeup service is designed for younger guests attending dance concerts, school events, parties, junior formals and other special occasions.
We keep junior makeup age-appropriate while still creating a polished look that photographs beautifully. Depending on the occasion, this may include fresh skin, subtle colour, softly defined eyes, blush, lip colour and additional stage definition where required for performances.
For dance concerts and stage performances, we understand that makeup may need to appear more defined under bright lighting and from a distance. Let us know your dance school’s makeup requirements, costume colours or performance guidelines when booking so our artists can create the appropriate look.
For junior formals and special occasions, we can create something soft and sophisticated that enhances their natural features without making them feel overly made-up.
