Stephanie Manganelli, Make You Up

5 (7)

Expert in bridal makeup for 17 years and 400 weddings in Dordogne and South-West France with a clientele accustomed to high-end services, across France and abroad, I create tailor-made makeup for my clients adapted to each morphology, which goes beyond simple beauty make-up.

Concerned about excellence and refinement, but also about ethics, I only use high quality professional makeup not tested on animals , guaranteeing flawless makeup hold for optimal results.

The service I offer is an all-inclusive package that includes the bride's trial make-up, the bride's D-day make-up and that of at least 4 guests, from 680€ / £625. Your entourage (mother, sister, and best friends...) can take advantage of my makeup so that you all look your best for this important day.

In order to get to know you better and thus fully understand your expectations, bridal makeup is always preceded by a trial appointment . As soon as you make this first appointment, I send you a carefully written online questionnaire allowing me to know your daily care and makeup habits as well as your wishes for D-Day .

During the trial, I create the make-up that sublimates you while relying on your desires and adapting to your expectations, and taking into account certain essential details (the dress, the bouquet, the jewelry, etc.). I build the intensity of the make-up so that it looks like you: whether you want a very natural and imperceptible make-up or a sophisticated and glamorous result .

On D-Day, I intervene at home or at the place of your choice (hairdresser, hotel, reception room, etc.). You are thus serene and take full advantage of your preparation.

Please do get in touch for more information, I'm at your disposal !

WHO AM I ?

Passionate about makeup since I was a child, I started makeup training in 2001 at just 15, during 5 years. I launched my career in 2006 on the French Riviera, and traveled France for 7 years as a makeup artist for the famous brand Make Up For Ever. I returned to my native Haute Savoie in 2012 and worked in Switzerland and France as a freelancer for fashion, editorial, advertising campaigns, beauty and events for 10 years before choosing to live in the Dordogne. During my career, I did many celebritie's makeup in TV shows (TF1, France 2, France 4, Canal +, Being Sport, etc.) and in advertising campaigns (Peggy Sage, Mavala, Hublot, Van Cleef & Arpels, ...). My work has been seen on TV shows such as "NRJ Music Award", "Miss France", "Tenue de Soirée", "Les Grosses Têtes" at the Cannes and Geneva Motor Show festivals.

HOW DO I BOOK MY SERVICES?

My work seduces you and you want to reserve my services ? I look forward to taking care of you and thank you for your trust. In order to add you to my calendar and count you among my clients, I make a service contract to return to me signed with a reservation deposit of 30% of the total estimate.

DOES THE MAKEUP REALLY HOLD?

Absolutely, and my clients attest to this. I often start bride's makeup at 5:30 in the morning, and the makeup must in any case remain until the end of the night. The waterproof makeup I use is heat and tear resistant and easy to remove. I am very attentive to the composition of each product, they are all hypo-allergenic, suitable for sensitive skin, vegan and of course cruelty free.

HOW FAR CAN I MOVE?

I work everywhere, abroad as in France, most often in the Dordogne and neighbouring departments (Corrèze, Lot, Lot et Garonne, Gironde, Charente, Charente Maritime and Haute Vienne).

HOW MANY MAKEUP CAN I DO PER MARRIAGE?

I make as many makeup as necessary depending on my availability. It is indeed common for me to make up to 10 people on a wedding.

HOW LONG IN ADVANCE SHOULD I BE CONTACTED ?

I am usually booked 1 year before the wedding (sometimes 2 years), and my days are full between 6 and 8 months before the date depending on the season. I therefore recommend that my clients contact me as soon as they know the date of their wedding to guarantee my availability.
