Makeup that still feels like you.
Private makeup appointments for soft glam, more defined finishes, events and camera-ready beauty — with selected mobile appointments available across Cape Town.
Your face. Your occasion. Your finish.
The starting point is not simply “more” or “less” makeup. It is the kind of finish you want, how you want to feel, and where the look needs to take you.
Polished, not overdone.
Soft definition, balanced skin and a finish that still feels recognisably you.
More presence.
For clients who want a stronger eye, lip or overall beauty statement.
Finished from every angle.
A considered look for events, content, portraits and occasions where the makeup needs to photograph beautifully.
Skin is part of the look.
Good makeup should work with the whole face — complexion, texture, features and the final mood. The aim is a polished result rather than a mask.
From reference to ready.
Send inspiration when you book if you already know the direction you want. Carol can then prepare for the finish rather than starting from a blank brief on the day.
Share the brief
Send your event, preferred date and any inspiration images you would like Carol to see.
Arrive prepared
Come with a clean face unless Carol gives you different preparation guidance beforehand.
Build the look
Complexion, eyes, lips and final detail are developed around the finish you have chosen.
Final check
The makeup is reviewed as a complete look before you leave or move into the next service.
Made for more than one kind of moment.
Makeup bookings can be planned around the occasion, the photographs and the rest of your beauty look.
A little preparation helps.
Keep the booking details clear and send the information Carol needs in advance so the appointment can stay focused on the look itself.
Send references
If you have a specific look in mind, share clear inspiration images when booking.
Arrive with clean skin
Unless advised otherwise, arrive without makeup so the appointment can begin from a clean base.
Confirm the timing
For events, share when you need to be ready so the appointment can be planned around your schedule.
House call?
For selected mobile bookings, confirm your area and make sure there is a clean, well-lit working space and access to a plug point.
Makeup does not have to be the only appointment.
Where timing allows, pair makeup with lashes or wig styling so the whole look is planned together rather than treated as separate appointments.
Before you book.
Send your preferred date, occasion and the finish you have in mind to check availability.
