Lilly choses to use high quality makeup that will give you a day-long finish. After every service you will receive a little touch up kit with a few necessities to help your makeup last throughout the day plus some extra goodies. Lipstick is the one product that can budge when eating or drinking so the desired lipstick you choose, Lilly will pop a sample into your little touch up kit which will allow you to touch up during the day or night.

Yes, you can. It is recommended that you do any type of waxing 5 – 7 days before the appointment. For Spray tans two days before your appointment would be best so the colour is able to set.

It’s totally up to you! Some prefer to start with makeup to avoid smudging during hairstyling, while others opt for hair first to let styles set. Personally, I recommend getting your hair done first—it helps your style set properly and reduces the risk of makeup smudging from heat or styling products.
