Five distinct practices, each quoted per booking and delivered on location.
Haleh’s approach
Every appointment begins with the skin. Preparation matched to your skin type and to the length of the day does more for longevity and photography than any product applied on top, which is why the first part of the appointment is often the most important.
From there the look is built rather than applied. Coverage is placed only where it is needed, warmth goes where light naturally falls, and definition is taken to the depth you actually want. Nothing is templated: two faces never receive the same makeup.
Because most of this work is photographed, every look is checked in daylight and considered against the camera as well as the room — the finish has to read correctly in both.
