I specialize in soft glam, elevated natural, and clean luxury bridal makeup. My goal is to enhance your natural features rather than cover them, creating a polished, radiant look that still feels like you while being beautiful and long-lasting in person and in photos.
Yes! I highly recommend a bridal trial so we can customize your look, test the products and techniques for your skin, and make sure you feel completely confident before your wedding day. Your trial is also the perfect time to make any adjustments and finalize your desired look.
Yes! I offer both studio appointments in the Northwest Chicago suburbs and on-location bridal services. Travel fees may apply depending on the location. I’ll always provide the total cost upfront so there are no unexpected fees.
My studio is conveniently located near Arlington Heights/Rolling Meadows and is available for bridal trials and select appointments. I also travel throughout the Chicago area and surrounding suburbs for wedding-day services.
Yes! I’m happy to work with larger bridal parties. For larger groups, I’ll carefully plan the timeline based on the number of people, desired makeup styles, and your getting-ready schedule so everyone is ready on time.
I use a curated selection of professional and luxury beauty products from brands such as Dior, Chanel, Armani Beauty, Lancôme, YSL, Charlotte Tilbury, Makeup by Mario, Fenty Beauty, and Hourglass. I select products based on your skin type, desired finish, and how the makeup needs to perform throughout your wedding day.
I typically allow approximately 60–75 minutes for the bride, including skin preparation and lashes when needed. I also build in setup and finishing time so your wedding-day beauty experience feels relaxed rather than rushed. A personalized timeline is created based on your wedding party size and getting-ready schedule.
I recommend reaching out as soon as you have your wedding date and venue confirmed, especially for popular Saturday dates during wedding season. Dates are secured once the required contract and retainer are completed.
To reserve your date, I’ll collect your wedding details and send you a personalized proposal and contract. Your date is officially secured once the signed contract and required retainer are received.
Yes. A non-refundable retainer is required to reserve your wedding date. The remaining balance is due according to the terms outlined in your contract. I’m happy to provide a complete breakdown of your services and fees before booking.
No. Transparency is very important to me. Before booking, you'll receive a clear breakdown of your services, travel fees, and any applicable additional charges so you know exactly what to expect.
That's completely okay! You don't need to be someone who wears makeup regularly to work with me. I specialize in enhancing your natural features and can create anything from a very soft, natural look to a more defined soft glam while keeping you feeling like yourself.
Yes! I also provide makeup for engagement photos, bridal showers, rehearsal dinners, maternity sessions, galas, special events, photoshoots, and other celebrations, subject to availability.

    A true gem

    Working with Lux Beauty by Iv Cole was such a joy from start to finish. IV's prompt responses and professional approach made planning seamless, and her kindness put everyone at ease while I was getting ready for my bridal shower. She transformed me into an absolute vision using high-end products that kept me glowing through every moment—the results were nothing short of glamorous and my makeup lasted all day. Beyond her impressive makeup skills, IV brought this infectious energy and genuine warmth that turned our beauty prep into an unforgettable experience rather than just another task on the timeline. Her attention to detail combined with her friendly personality made all the difference. I'm already looking forward to booking her for my next event.

    I couldn’t be happier with my bridal makeup! ☺️Iv is incredibly talented and truly an honor to work with. From the moment I met her, she made me feel comfortable, listened to exactly what I wanted, and brought my vision to life beautifully. My makeup was absolutely stunning! She created the perfect soft, elegant glam that enhanced my natural features while still making me feel like the best version of myself. Everything looked flawless, felt lightweight, and photographed beautifully. You can tell how passionate Iv is about her work and how much care she puts into every little detail. Beyond her amazing talent, Iv is such a sweet, professional, and lovely person to have by your side on such a special day. She made the entire experience enjoyable and stress-free, which is exactly what every bride needs! I’m so grateful I chose her for my wedding makeup and would recommend her to any bride looking for someone who truly cares about making her feel beautiful and confident.
