Bridal makeup stands out for its precision, personalization, and durability. It’s not just about applying makeup — it’s a tailored beauty experience designed to enhance your natural glow throughout one of the most important days of your life. Unlike everyday or evening makeup, bridal makeup is fully customized to suit your facial features, skin tone, wedding dress, personal style, and the overall theme of your wedding.

What makes it truly special is its exceptional longevity. It’s carefully crafted to withstand heat, emotions, kisses, and long hours, while remaining radiant, flawless, and natural to the naked eye — and just as perfect in photos and videos. This delicate balance between lightness, intensity, and long wear is what makes bridal makeup so unique.

Choosing a professional bridal makeup artist means enjoying personalized guidance and peace of mind: a beauty trial to define your ideal look, expert advice tailored to your skin, pre-wedding support, and a calm, stress-free preparation on the big day. This level of care and expertise ensures a harmonious, long-lasting result, helping you feel confident, radiant, and beautifully yourself — from the first look to the last dance.

To secure your booking, contact Ange & Cils as early as possible. Due to high demand, especially on Saturdays, and because Angéline only accepts one wedding per day, available dates fill up quickly. Reservations can be made up to 1–2 years in advance. A deposit will be required to book your trial, which will also pre-reserve your wedding date. In return for the deposit, Angéline commits to declining any other requests she may receive for your wedding day.

The bridal hair and makeup trial can be scheduled as soon as the bride has chosen her wedding theme and finalized her wedding dress. From that moment, it is recommended to book the trial as early as possible. This allows you to test your hair and makeup in real conditions, check how well they harmonize with your dress and the overall wedding style, and most importantly, give yourself enough time to reflect. In this way, the bride enjoys a calm, stress-free preparation and can fine-tune every detail to ensure a look that perfectly matches her style and her big day.

The bridal hair and makeup trial is ideally scheduled 6 to 10 months before the wedding day. This essential step ensures that your look will be absolutely perfect when the big day arrives:

• Before the trial: In your appointment confirmation SMS, you’ll receive a link to a preparation questionnaire. You will be asked to share inspiration photos for both makeup and hairstyle, photos of your wedding dress, as well as details about your habits and expectations. This questionnaire is essential to help Angéline prepare for your visit and make the most of your time together during the trial.

• Meeting & Consultation: The trial begins with a personal consultation — a privileged moment to get to know each other. You’ll discuss your wedding theme, your daily habits, your beauty preferences, and the styles you’d like to explore. Angéline will also advise you on the colors and hairstyles that best enhance your personality and facial features.

• Hairstyling Trial: This step defines the hairstyle that will flatter your face and harmonize perfectly with your dress. Angéline strongly recommends waiting until the trial before choosing your hair accessory, as it must be selected according to the style, volume, and structure of the hairstyle. Several accessory options can be tried on site to help you make the perfect choice.

• Makeup Trial: The makeup trial begins with a skin analysis, to select the products most suited to your skin type. Angéline will also recommend a simple and effective skincare routine to prepare your skin in the weeks leading up to your wedding. You will also discuss eye-enhancing options, such as lash extensions, tear-proof semi-permanent mascara, or brow restructuring with a brow lift.

• Quote & Booking: The trial session is to be paid on the day of the appointment. If the trial is validated, a quote for the wedding day will be established in line with your expectations. A 30% deposit will then be required to secure your wedding date.

• After the trial: The makeup and hairstyle created during the trial will be reproduced exactly as tested on your wedding day. All products and techniques used will be carefully recorded on a technical sheet, and photos will be taken to ensure faithful reproduction on the big day.

Please Note: Trials are carried out at the Ange & Cils Atelier (78790 – Arnouville-lès-Mantes). However, as part of the Imperial Package, Angéline offers you the option to have your trials done directly at home, for even greater comfort and peace of mind.

Preparing your skin and hair before the wedding is highly recommended. Ideally, this should begin as early as possible to give your skin and hair the time they need to transform in depth. At the latest, preparation should start 3 to 6 months before the big day: this timeframe allows you to establish a regular beauty routine tailored to your skin type (hydration, radiance, targeted treatments) and to strengthen your hair’s health (nutrition, shine, volume). However, even if started at the last minute, a few specific treatments before the wedding can still make a real difference.

With Ange & Cils by your side, you benefit from a personalized beauty protocol: professional skincare treatments, tailored hair care, and eye-enhancing services (lashes and brows). For more information, feel free to get in touch. You can also discover my bridal beauty preparation e-book — accessible to all brides-to-be — where I share practical tips and common mistakes to avoid, based on my experience with many brides.

Eye beauty is a key step in elevating the bride’s final makeup look. Lashes and brows frame the face, intensify expression, and create the harmony needed to highlight the entire bridal makeup. By choosing Angéline for your beauty preparation, you benefit from her expertise in eye beauty — a specialization that ensures a polished, balanced result perfectly tailored to your features.

To guarantee this level of quality, lash and brow services should ideally be performed by Angéline 4 to 5 days before the wedding. This allows her to refine every detail of your eyes and ensure complete harmony with your bridal makeup, for a natural, elegant, and long-lasting result.

• Lash Enhancements: Eyelash extensions, lash lift, or semi-permanent mascara — depending on your desired look, the most suitable option will be chosen during your bridal consultation and scheduled the week before the wedding.

• Brow Reshaping: Precise eyebrow shaping with Indian threading redefines the brows while respecting even the most sensitive skin. To perfect the result, Brow Lift treatment disciplines the hairs and enhances the brow line, offering a lifted, clean, and natural effect that brightens the whole face.

These services are available to all brides-to-be, even if Angéline is not available on the wedding day, so that every bride can enjoy beautifully enhanced eyes and a lasting, radiant look.

On your wedding day, Angéline ensures that everything runs perfectly:

• Travel & Setup: Angéline comes to the location of your choice with all the professional equipment needed. For your comfort, she recommends completing your bridal makeup and hairstyle before putting on your dress. Don’t forget to prepare a scarf to cover your face when dressing, so as not to damage your makeup or hairstyle.

• Timing & Coordination: The arrival time is set according to the workload and the time by which each person needs to be ready. If necessary, Angéline will create a detailed schedule with time slots for the bride, bridesmaids, and guests, ensuring a smooth and stress-free organization.

• Additional Professional Support: In case of high demand or a tight schedule, Angéline may be assisted by another qualified professional to guarantee that all beauty services are delivered seamlessly.

Yes, Angéline can stay by your side throughout the entire wedding day to provide continuous makeup and hair support. This premium service includes unlimited touch-ups for the bride, as well as the option to enhance the beauty of your guests, ensuring everyone looks flawless from morning to evening. This exclusive service can be included in the high-end Imperial Package.
