BRIDAL MAKEUP

Your wedding day is one of the most special days of your life, and I would absolutely love to be a part of it and have the honour of making you look and feel beautiful.

I have a style that encompasses soft glam and glowing, radiant complexions, and understand the importance of you looking and feeling like yourself. It’s important to me that makeup isn’t a mask, but enhances your favourite features and feels lightweight - yet perfected - on your skin.

I am based in Christchurch, however am able to travel all over NZ (and beyond). Please get in touch for a personalised travel quote.

Before enquiring, please check out the FAQ at the bottom of this page - I’m always available to guide you through any specific questions - feel free to email me via the CONTACT section.

1:1 MAKEUP LESSONS

Makeup can be confusing and overwhelming. I am here to help you feel confident in creating a look that suits your features, your time constraints and your budget.

We'll start with what you already own - you bring the contents of your makeup bag and I show you exactly how to use them. From there, we establish what gaps are missing, where we can multitask products to save you valuable time. Following our lesson, I’ll email you a multi-page PDF with personalised notes so you can follow the steps in your own bathroom.

You will leave with a full face of makeup, to the level of glam you're comfortable with.
I believe people learn best how they learn, so you have the option to watch and listen - or pick up the brushes and try yourself under my guidance.

BEST FOR YOU:

- if you’re completely new to makeup and want to start from scratch
- you already understand the basics and want to improve skill
- your makeup bag has many products that don’t make sense to you
- if you’ve done a group workshop and want a personally tailored look
- you want a more slow paced session with plenty of time for questions

For any questions on this service, please email hello@kasiastanicich.com. Limited Availability, Thursdays-Saturdays.

GROUP WORKSHOPS

Perfect for before a night out, a catch up afternoon or for a smaller group! This is a great way to learn in a not so full-on way! Grab a handful of friends, and use this as the perfect excuse to learn while you catch up.

This is a hands on workshop style. I teach step by step and guests apply to their own faces. Each guest brings their foundation & mascara (and any other products they love/want to use!) and I provide brushes, products and the education.

This is a wider overview of one of my key-makeup looks, and is perfect for a group catch up where everyone has the opportunity to try something new in a fun environment.

You’re provided with a facechart & notes sheet - and feel free to take as many photos/videos as you like.

BEST FOR YOU:

- you have a group of friends who need the perfect excuse for a catch up!
- it’s been a while since you edited your everyday makeup look
- you want to play around with new products without being in store
- you need to go over the basics (you can then opt to do a 1:1 later!)

GROUP WORKSHOP PRICING

$640 (up to 4 attendees)
extra attendees $160pp (up to a total of 6)
allow 2.5-3 hours

add on: platter $120
add on: bubbles $25 / champagne $90

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE CAN I BOOK? WHAT IS YOUR CANCELLATION POLICY?

I take bookings up to 12 months in advance. For bridal enquires, I am happy to take your details and get in contact with you as soon as my books are open for your wedding date, to ensure you don’t miss out.

  • Your booking is not considered confirmed until a $100 booking fee has been received (this will contribute to your final payment). Please be aware this fee covers my time and administration in order to hold and secure your date in the lead up to the wedding. You agree that it is non-refundable and non-transferrable in all circumstances, including choosing to cancel/postpone due to government restrictions.

  • In the unlikely event that you need to cancel your bridal booking, the following policy applies. If given less than eight (8) weeks notice, 50% of the total invoice will be charged. If given less than four (4) weeks notice, 100% of the remaining invoice will be charged. Making the decision not to move forward with your booking due to personal reasons is considered a cancellation and the above notice periods apply.

WHAT IS INCLUDED?

Along with a full face of makeup and complimentary individual lashes (if requested), all bookings are also provided with a sample of the lipstick of their choice, for reapplication after eating etc.

Brides are provided with a comprehensive touch up kit that includes a makeup brush, blotting paper, concealer and a sample of the lipstick of their choice.

WHEN SHOULD I HAVE MY TRIAL?

As skincare is such an important part of a perfect makeup look, I recommend booking your trial for 1-6 months out so we are able to discuss any changes to your routine. Please be aware that this is not my full time job and so my availability is limited, especially in the summer months. The likelihood of being able to secure a bridal trial for a Hen’s Do, Wedding Guest Attendance or the suchlike, especially in summer, is very slim. I recommend teeing up your bridal trial on the same day as your hair & spray tan, so you can get a visual of the full picture.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN DOING MAKEUP?

This is my 10th year in the industry.

I studied at Kristen Stewart School of Makeup in 2016, graduating with Distinction.
Then worked at MAC while beginning my freelance career, leaving to go full time in Dec 2017.

I now work in Operations during the week, with my afternoons and weekends focused solely on my brides and client education.

WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?

Christchurch, NZ. My studio is based in Marshland, just off QEII Drive. The exact address will be sent to you prior to your appointment.

I am mobile for bridal bookings and special occasion if requested (min booking numbers and call out fees apply).

DO YOU HAVE A MINIMUM NUMBER OF CLIENTS?

Minimum numbers for bridal is 4 adult faces. if you have less than 4 people please get in touch closer to the time, as I may be able to organise a smaller booking for you dependant on availability. In the event that you have more than 6 faces, I do require a second artist. This will incur additional fees and travel charges.
