Airbase Airbrush Make-up

A bride faces the same scenarios that filmmakers and TV producers face - the need for a flawless finish that lasts and doesn’t move!

Airbase Make-Up provides this and much more. A long lasting make-up that requires no touch ups, meaning the bride and bridesmaids need not worry about their make-up degenerating throughout that special day.

You may ask ‘Why have film make-ups not been used before for occasions such as weddings?’ Before Airbase, they were all simply too heavy to wear and didn’t allow the skin to breathe. The advent of silicone-airbrushed make-up now enables a flawless finish and a light, weightless feel without compromise on durability.

Airbase Make-Up will enhance your natural beauty, guaranteed to give you that natural glow. Airbase Make-Up brides can't help but feel great on their wedding day.

The benefits of using Airbase Airbrush Make-Up include:

Flawless Finish
Weightless Application
Long lasting
Allows Skin to Breathe
No ‘touch-ups’ required
Silicone Based Looks Smooth and Natural

Brides

Make-up by Kelly Hollands offers traditional and Airbase Airbrush Make-up. Regardless of the application you choose, it is advisable that all brides have a make-up trial at least 8 weeks before their wedding date. The trial is also a time for you to discuss your wedding dress design, hair style, colour scheme, timings and how you would like to look on your big day.

Trials are carried out at your home and can take between one and two hours. However, there is no time limit. Kelly will only leave when you are 100% happy with your final look.

On your wedding day, Kelly will arrive at either your home or chosen venue at the agreed time and re-create the look from your trial.

When booking your make-up trial, a non-refundable deposit of £20 is required to secure your wedding date in Kelly's diary. This deposit will then be deducted from the trial amount. Once you are happy with your make-up trial, a non-refundable deposit of 50% of your wedding day make-up costs will be required to further secure your wedding date. The balance is then payable no later than 14 days prior to your wedding date.

Eye Definition by Kelly Hollands

What are Nouveau Lashes?

Nouveau Lashes are state of the art semi-permanent lash extensions that give longer, thicker and very natural looking lashes. They are not false lashes or "individual lashes" but are monofilament synthetic fibres perfectly shaped like a lash which are bonded with a specially developed cyano-acrylate adhesive.

Soft and curved Nouveau Lashes have a flat base and a fine, polished tip – just like natural lashes and are applied individually for a striking and defined result. Loved by celebrities and perfect for giving your eyes the wow factor.

Full set of Nouveau Lashes (plain black) (1 hour 30 mins): £75.00
Infill maintenance of lashes every 2-3 weeks (30 mins): £30.00
Infill maintenance of lashes every 3-4 weeks (45 mins): £40.00
Infill maintenance of lashes at 4 weeks (1 hour): £55.00

Nouveau Express Lashes

Nouveau Express lashes are applied in a different way from the semi permanent lashes but with the same fantastic results. This is ideal for those clients who are in a hurry or are looking for beautiful lashes for a short period of time. These lashes will last up to 2-3 weeks and no maintenance is involved making them ideal for Brides for their wedding day and honeymoon.

Nouveau Express Lashes - Natural Look (25 mins): £35 - £45
Nouveau Express Lashes - Thicker & Longer Look (40 mins): £45 - £55
Nouveau Express Lashes - Hint of colour: £5
