THE SIGNATURE

Skin that lookslike skin.

A fresh complexion, subtle definition and color that belongs to you. Fine layers bring out your features while keeping the texture of your skin visible.

Your beauty routine should enhance what makes you unique.

Bobbi BrownMakeup artist

It starts with your skin

Texture, hydration and undertone guide the preparation. Coverage is built only where it is needed, with attention to how your skin feels as well as how it looks.

Considered for the Caribbean

Professional formulas and textures are selected for your skin, coastal heat and humidity, and how the finish will appear in daylight and photographs.

Hair that completes the look

Your hair texture, neckline and setting guide the shape, from soft movement to a clean, sculpted finish. Makeup and hair are considered as one look.

03THE OCCASIONS

PRIVATE MAKEUP LESSONS

Your makeup. In your hands.

US$1,200

Four private sessions · Two hours each

One-to-one with Irina. Makeup for yourself, not professional artist training.

Build an everyday look and an evening version around your own features, skin and routine. You practise each technique yourself, with Irina guiding your hand and helping you understand what works for you.

  1. Start with your own beauty bag

    Review your makeup and brushes, identify what is missing, choose suitable shades and practise skin preparation and foundation.

  2. Your everyday look

    Put the steps together into a natural daytime routine. Practise placement, blending and the details you want to feel confident doing yourself.

  3. Take it into the evening

    Adapt your daytime makeup for an evening out, with eye definition, considered accents and techniques for longer wear.

  4. Make it your own

    Create the makeup yourself from start to finish. Irina observes, helps correct difficult steps and refines the routine with you.

04BEAUTY DIRECTION & TEAMS

Your event.A team around it.

From an intimate wedding morning to a full wedding weekend, a gala or a fashion production. The team is chosen for the people, the setting and the demands of the occasion.

01

A shared creative brief, with individual looks shaped around each person’s features, outfit and preferences.

YOUR APPOINTMENT

From first message to your occasion.

A few details are enough to start. The look, timing and price are agreed with Irina before you book.

  1. Share your plans

    Send your date, venue, occasion and ready-by time. Let Irina know how many people need makeup, hair or both.

  2. Define the details

    Discuss your references, services and preparation schedule. Confirm the total quote, travel and any venue access charges.

  3. Confirm with Irina

    Review the booking and cancellation terms directly with Irina. Your enquiry starts the conversation; it does not reserve a date.

No payment is taken on this website.

BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT

A few details.

Can Irina bring a team for a larger event?

Yes. Irina assembles and directs makeup and hairstyling teams for wedding weekends, formal celebrations and fashion productions. The team and preparation schedule are agreed around your guest list, venue and event brief.

Can the makeup look almost invisible?

That is the starting point: fresh skin, soft definition and a finish that lets your features remain the focus. If you prefer a bolder look for the evening, share your references with Irina.

What if I only need makeup or hair?

You can request either service. The minimum private appointment is US$500, including travel within Playa del Carmen. Share your references so Irina can confirm the scope and price.

How do I request an appointment?

Message Irina on WhatsApp with your date, location and occasion. She will help you plan your look and confirm availability and pricing before you book.

Can you come to my hotel or villa?

Yes, from Cancún to Tulum. Please check that your property permits outside beauty professionals. You arrange access and cover any required vendor fees, day passes and parking.

Why don’t you publish client work?

Your privacy takes priority over our portfolio. We do not publish photographs of our client work. The gallery offers visual references to discuss your style; it does not show Irina’s work or clients.
