What the service includes
Full Face Glam with Strip Lashes combines a complete makeup application—complexion, eye definition, lip finishing—with professional strip lash placement at the end of the service. Your artist sequences skin prep, base products, color work and eye detail so lashes are applied to a finished eye look, ensuring adhesion and alignment without disrupting earlier steps.
Expect a look tailored to your occasion and personal preferences: soft and natural for daytime, intensified for evening or photographs. Because strip lashes are temporary and applied on the finished eye makeup, they offer flexibility to remove or replace the lashes after the appointment while preserving the rest of the makeup if you choose.
How we shape the look
We begin with a brief consultation to determine desired intensity, skin considerations and the event context. In Astoria’s transit-oriented lifestyle—close to Ditmars Boulevard and N/W subway access—clients often request quick after-work or weekend appointments that translate to looks suitable for both day-to-night transitions and nearby photo locations such as Astoria Park or Socrates Sculpture Park.
Customization focuses on color balance, contrast, and lash shape so the final result reads well in evening lighting and daylight. Your artist will advise on intensity trade-offs—more contour and darker eyes read well in photographs but can feel heavy for casual daytime plans—and select strip lashes that support your chosen balance.
Preparing and during appointment
To make the most of a 60 minutes session, arrive with a cleansed face and any reference photos you prefer. Arriving makeup-free speeds skin prep and ensures adhesive and base products perform predictably; busy professionals and parents often prefer early evening or weekend windows, so punctuality helps keep service time intact.
DOLLFACE operates on Ditmars Boulevard in the Ditmars-Steinway neighborhood, with easy access from the N/W terminal and nearby landmarks like Kaufman Astoria Studios and the Grand Central Parkway. The service price is $140 and the appointment is scheduled for 60 minutes; plan travel and any errands around those exact times to avoid rushed results.
