Lash By Jayne, advanced eyelash extension expert

A lush set of lashes is top of the list for beauty conscious brides or grooms – especially when it comes to those wedding close-up photos that capture your cherished memories forever. Mascara – yes, even the waterproof kind – is a risky business, with the likelihood of happy tears flowing throughout the day, to say nothing of the summer heat playing havoc with your make-up in the blazing Ibiza sunshine. Enter Jayne Brami, founder of famed Ibiza beauty brand Lash by Jayne, and the island’s premier specialist in high-end, semi-permanent eyelash extensions for women and men alike. With more than a decade of experience, Jayne works closely with her clients to deign the perfect flirty flutter – whether simply to enhance your natural look or take it to the next va-va-voom level. Taking just one to two hours to apply, either at the Lash by Jayne studio near Salinas (a few minutes from the airport) or at your own villa, the luxurious light-weight lashes can last between four to eight weeks, meaning your natural beauty look lasts all the way throughout your honeymoon too.

Louise Maxwell, professional hair and make-up artist

Most importantly, Louise advocates for conscious and ethical skincare, haircare and make-up brands where possible, so for the planet-aware bride-to-be, there’s no need to compromise on your wedding day.
