Makeup and hair services in Melbourne









Makeup with a point of view.
I am Rina - a makeup artist based in Melbourne with nine years of professional experience. I have founded and run three beauty studios, trained hundreds of women, and count Cannes Film Festival clientele among my work.
My approach is simple: makeup should feel like the best version of you - not a mask. Whether you are a bride on the morning of your life, or someone who simply deserves to feel incredible today.
Kind words from clients
Absolutely the best experience! Rina was my choice for professional wedding makeup and hair. I was very happy. Thank you very much.
Rina did an amazing makeup for me. I looked 20 years younger - it looked like I had plastic surgery. Everyone complimented me. I would recommend Rina as a devoted and talented makeup artist. Her skills are amazing and it was a pleasure to meet her.
Rina is a true master of art. Her skills are absolutely unmatched. I will never let anyone else touch my face.
Questions about makeup and hair bookings
Yes - I am fully mobile and come to you, and I also take bookings at my studio in Middle Park. How a mobile booking works, what travel costs and which days brows travel is set out on the mobile service page. Your start time is worked backwards from two things: the hour you need me finished, and how many people are being done. Tell me both and I will tell you what time I arrive. Time for changing is not inside that, so build it into the hour you give me. I leave early in the morning, from 4am if that is what your morning needs, and I can start on you from 5am. Travel is charged at $1 per kilometre driven, and because I drive out and back, that works out at $2 for every kilometre between us. A booking 50km from the studio is $100, confirmed before you book and never added afterwards. For the Mornington Peninsula, the Yarra Valley and other distant locations I take bookings from three or four services.
All of them, and well beyond. My studio is in Middle Park, so Albert Park, South Melbourne, Port Melbourne, St Kilda, Southbank and the CBD are minutes away. I regularly travel to Brighton, Toorak, South Yarra, Elsternwick and Ripponlea, and out to the Mornington Peninsula, the Yarra Valley, the Dandenong Ranges and Daylesford for weddings. If your location is not on that list, ask anyway. For a good booking I will travel.
A dedicated session where we find your perfect wedding look - testing products on your skin, trying different approaches, and refining until everything feels exactly right. The trial is booked separately from the wedding day.
The sooner the better - popular dates get taken quickly and I can only hold one booking per time slot. Enquire early to avoid disappointment.
A deposit is required to confirm your booking and is non-refundable - when I hold a date for you, I turn away other clients. Rescheduling is possible with enough notice and subject to availability.
The products I work with are professional and luxury lines, chosen for your skin type and tone. Every look is built for exceptional longevity - you will still look impeccable long after the night ends. Please mention any allergies or sensitivities when you enquire.
Absolutely. Gift vouchers are available for any service - a lovely treat for a bride's party, a birthday, or someone who deserves a moment for herself. Contact me directly to arrange.
Bridal Makeup starts at $230 per session. The bridal trial is also $230 and is booked separately from your wedding day - I highly recommend it so we can perfect your look ahead of time.
Glam makeup starts from $180, and Natural / Soft Glam starts from $160.
Glam is bolder and more dramatic than my other looks - perfect for special events, parties and photoshoots, and it is also where stage and performance makeup sits, for dancers, calisthenics and theatre. Natural / Soft Glam sits at the softer end, subtle and radiant for everyday elegance. Editorial pushes furthest creatively, with bold, photo-ready looks designed for shoots, campaigns and portfolios rather than everyday wear.
Yes. Longevity is the thing my clients bring up most often afterwards, usually the next day. My work is built to hold through heat, humidity, a long day outdoors and a full night of dancing, and to photograph cleanly the whole time. Looking good at nine in the morning is not the achievement. Looking good at nine at night is.
Yes - I tailor products and techniques to enhance mature skin specifically, using lightweight, breathable application chosen to look natural in person and to photograph well, and laid as lightly as the skin allows rather than packed on.
Yes - I offer gentle, safe makeup services for kids and teens, from $80.
Yes - Guest Makeup is available for one, two, three, or more people (individual and group pricing from $170), plus a dedicated Flower Girl Makeup option from $80. For larger groups, simply message me with the details - I work with assistants and can often take on more people than my calendar alone shows.
Yes - hair styling is available alongside makeup, in the same booking, for both you and your bridal party. Bridal Hairstyle and trial are $180 each, with Guest Hairstyle from $160.
