Midsomer Norton & Radstock Event Prep: The Ultimate Lash and Brow Checklist 

Your Luxe Lash & Brow Prep Timeline for Weddings, Proms & Special Events

Got something special coming up?

Whether it’s a wedding in Bath, a party at The Pig near Combe Hay, or prom night at Writhlington School, we’ve got the ultimate Luxe checklist to make sure your lashes and brows are on point — and that your prep runs smoothly.

At Luxe Hair and Beauty Lounge, we’ve helped hundreds of clients in Radstock, Midsomer Norton, and the surrounding BA3 area get party-ready — from first-time prom-goers to brides who want their lashes to last through happy tears.

Here’s everything you need to know, when to book it, and how to care for your lashes and brows like a pro.

1–2 Weeks Before: Book Your Patch Test

Before we tint, lift, or laminate anything, we need to carry out a patch test — especially if:

  • It’s your first time visiting us
  • You haven’t had lash or brow tinting in the last 6 months
  • You’ve recently changed medication or had a baby

Simply pop into the salon on The Street in Radstock. It only takes a few minutes and ensures you’re ready for your treatment appointment.

5–7 Days Before: Get Your Brows Done

Brow shaping is best done a few days before your event. This allows time for:

  • Any redness to settle
  • Tint to soften into your natural colour
  • Your brows to settle into their natural shape before makeup day

Popular brow services include:

  • Brow Wax & Tint – adds definition and shape
  • HD Brows – a tailored treatment combining tinting, waxing, threading, and shaping
  • Brow Lamination – perfect for fuller, brushed-up brows that stay in place

Top Tip:
If you’re booking brow lamination, schedule it around 7 days before your event so the brows settle naturally.

2–3 Days Before: Lash Lift & Tint (or Extensions)

A lash lift is the secret weapon for:

  • Looking bright and awake
  • Ditching mascara completely
  • Natural glam that lasts through dancing, heat, and happy tears

Treatments you can book include:

  • Lash Lift & Tint – lifts and curls your natural lashes while tint adds depth
  • Classic Lash Extensions – subtle length and definition
  • Hybrid or Volume Lashes – fuller glam looks perfect for prom or parties

Luxe Tip from Michael (our lash expert):
“Don’t wash your lashes for 24 hours after your lift or extensions, and avoid steam or heavy eye creams.”

On the Day: Keep It Simple & Glowy

With your brows tinted and lashes lifted, your makeup routine becomes much easier on the day of the event.

We recommend:

  • Using a light brow gel only — no heavy filling needed
  • Mascara is optional after a tint
  • Avoid waterproof mascara if you have lash extensions
  • Avoid heavy makeup on freshly waxed skin around the brows

Luxe Event Favourites – Straight from the Chair

Emma – Bride from Midsomer Norton
“I had my lash lift and HD brows done a few days before my wedding. I cried through the whole ceremony and my lashes didn’t move!”

Katie – Writhlington School Prom
“Michael did my lashes the week of prom and I felt so pretty. I didn’t even wear eyeliner — they were perfect!”

Jade – Client from Bath
“I book Luxe every time I’ve got a night out. Their lash lifts last weeks and the brow tint is always the perfect shade.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do lash lifts last?
Typically 6–8 weeks depending on your natural lash cycle and aftercare routine.

Will my brows look too dark after tinting?
They may look slightly stronger on day one but soften naturally within 24–48 hours. We always aim for a natural tone.

What if I’ve never had a lash lift before?
No problem. We’ll explain everything during your consultation. It’s a safe and low-maintenance alternative to extensions, but you will need a patch test 48 hours before treatment.
