Cáo Studio sends certified makeup artists to Sheraton Hanoi Hotel for bridal preparation, guest makeup, and event touch-ups. We operate 06:00–21:00 daily, arrive with full kits, and adapt to Vietnam's humidity. Book via WhatsApp; deposit secures your date and time slot.
Why Choose Hotel-Room Makeup Over Studio Visits?
Hotel room service saves 2–4 hours of travel, packing and timing stress. Your artist arrives with climate-controlled lighting, all products, and touch-up supplies. You stay relaxed in familiar surroundings; no transit risk to your outfit, jewelry or makeup finish. Sheraton's quiet rooms suit bridal preps and wedding-morning teams perfectly.

What Does Cáo Studio Bring to Your Room?
We arrive with professional brushes, full-coverage foundations, setting sprays, contouring palettes, and humidity-lock powders tested in Hanoi conditions. Our kit includes backup products for Sheraton's dry-cool AC and sticky lobby humidity shifts. Artists carry portable ring lights and hand mirrors so you see results in real daylight before descending to events. We don't rely on hotel mirrors or lighting—we ensure you look identical indoors and outside.
Korean vs. Western Makeup: Which Suits You?
Korean-style makeup emphasizes gradual contouring, glossy skin, and soft eyeshadow. It photographs beautifully and suits wedding receptions with mixed lighting. Western bridal makeup uses stronger definition, matte finishes, and dramatic eyes—ideal if you're posing for formal photos or outdoor ceremonies. Cáo Studio artists master both. Explore our Korean-makeup approach here or message us during booking to discuss your wedding's vibe, guest count, and photo style.
| Style | Best for | Finish | Longevity in 30°C humidity |
|---|---|---|---|
| Korean | Modern weddings, indoor events, younger brides | Dewy, soft | 6–8 hours (touch-up recommended) |
| Western | Formal ceremonies, outdoor shoots, bold preference | Matte, defined | 7–9 hours (powder refresh midday) |
How to Prepare Your Sheraton Room (Practical Checklist)
Before the artist arrives:
- Clear a flat desk or vanity space (60 cm minimum) near a window or well-lit wall.
- Set AC to 21–22°C for 90 minutes before arrival; humidity control prevents makeup slipping.
- Have clean skin: light moisturizer only, no oil or heavy primer yet (artist applies skin prep).
- Wear a button-up shirt or robe to protect your outfit during makeup application.
- Keep a towel nearby in case of accidental powder spills on dark fabrics.
During application:
- Avoid touching your face or phone for the first 10 minutes (setting spray needs time).
- Ask your artist to show you touch-up techniques using the products they've applied.
- Take a photo under natural light so you have a reference if humidity shifts later.
Booking Timeline: How Far Ahead for Your Sheraton Event?
Bridal makeup (wedding day): Book 3–6 weeks prior. Sheraton bookings fill fast, especially weekends. A trial 1–2 weeks before wedding day costs extra but catches lighting preferences, skin reactions, and timing issues.
Event or guest makeup (conferences, parties): 2–3 weeks ahead.
Same-day bookings: Possible if a slot opens; message WhatsApp directly.
We'll confirm your room number and arrival time 24 hours before. Deposit secures the booking; balance due at service completion. Our deposit policy ensures you're locked in and we don't double-book your time slot.
What Happens at Your Makeup Trial?
A trial (1–1.5 hours, held at Cáo Studio or your home) lets you and your artist test foundation shade, eyeshadow intensity, and longevity under Hanoi's heat. You'll discuss any allergies, sensitive areas, or product preferences. Your artist photographs the trial look so you both reference it on wedding day—no guessing. If you're traveling from overseas, we offer video consultations to discuss your vision beforehand, then finalize details on arrival.
Makeup Services: Bridal, Event & Touch-Ups
Cáo Studio offers bridal makeup (includes trial and touch-up kit), event and party makeup (single application, 1–2 guests or teams), and individual touch-up appointments. We also teach 1-to-1 makeup classes if you want to master these skills for future events. For pricing details and to compare package options, message us on WhatsApp.
Humidity, Sweat & Makeup Longevity in Hanoi
Sheraton's AC keeps humidity at 40–50% indoors, but stepping into the lobby or outdoors hits 70–90%. Our artists use waterproof bases, setting sprays, and matte powders formulated for Southeast Asia's climate. We avoid heavy cream products that slide off skin; instead, we layer lightweight, long-wear products. Your touch-up kit (included with bridal bookings) contains blotting papers, powder, and lipstick so you refresh before photos without smudging eyes.

What to Check Before You Book
- Confirm artist availability for your exact date and time (Sheraton bookings fill weekends fast).
- Discuss your makeup vision via photos—send reference images to clarify Korean vs. Western style preference.
- Mention allergies or skin concerns during WhatsApp chat; our artists adjust product selection.
- Agree on trial timing if it's a wedding (2–3 weeks before event, ideally).
- Verify deposit amount and payment method (bank QR or arrangement); it's non-refundable if you cancel <7 days before.
- Confirm room number and door access 24 hours prior; Sheraton concierge will direct our artist.
We also serve Ho Chi Minh City and Da Nang for guests staying at partner hotels. If you're planning an ao dai photoshoot alongside your wedding or event, coordinate both bookings through our sister site.
FAQ
Can Cáo Studio do makeup for a Sheraton wedding reception if the ceremony is elsewhere?
Yes. We offer reception touch-up makeup for the bride and bridesmaids. Arrive early in your suite; we'll refresh your look before photos and dancing. Message WhatsApp to discuss your ceremony location and we'll coordinate timing.
Do you offer group bookings (bridesmaids + bride) at Sheraton?
Yes. We can serve 3–5 people in one room if you have enough seating and prep time (allow 2–3 hours total). Book 3–4 weeks ahead for team slots; message us with guest count and preferred makeup style.
What if Sheraton's AC breaks and the room gets hot?
We carry backup setting sprays and powders for heat emergencies. Keep AC at 21–22°C before we arrive; if it fails, request a room swap from concierge at least 2 hours before our arrival. We'll adjust product formulas if you move to a cooler room.
Do you travel to other Hanoi hotels, or only Sheraton?
We serve all Hanoi hotels (Sheraton, JW Marriott, Hilton, Sofitel, and smaller boutique properties). Artists arrive 06:00–21:00 daily. Booking process is identical—message WhatsApp with your hotel name and room type.
Can I book a same-day makeup appointment at Sheraton if I just arrived?
Possibly if we have availability. Message WhatsApp immediately with your room number, time needed, and makeup type. Same-day bookings carry no deposit discount, but we'll try to fit you in if another artist has a gap.
What's the difference between booking at your Hanoi studio vs. your hotel service?
Studio visits let you see our setup, try multiple looks, and take your time (ideal for trials). Hotel service saves travel and stress on event day. Both use identical artists and products. Choose studio for trials; choose hotel for your actual wedding or event.
