Check 10 or more recent reviews across 2 platforms, focusing on comments about punctuality, hygiene, and shade match. Ask for certificates or dated training in sanitation, and request 3 unfiltered before-and-after photos of clients with similar skin tone, hair, and event type to the one you are planning.
Mention allergies, eczema, or contact lens use at the enquiry stage. Ask whether the artist carries hypoallergenic mascara, fragrance-free remover, and single-use wands. A patch test on the inner arm 48 hours ahead can prevent a flare-up on event day. Sterile disposables for liner and lashes reduce infection risk significantly.
Most artists require a 25 to 50 percent deposit to hold the date. Read the cancellation policy carefully. Deposits are usually non refundable within 14 days of the event. Reschedules due to illness often need a doctor's note. Clarify these terms before paying any booking fee.
Eyelash application, false strip lashes, or individual flares add 10 to 15 minutes per eye. Waterline lining, graphic liner, or cut crease styles take longer than standard shadow blends. Ask whether lash removal is included if you wear contact lenses. Detail work is the part most rushed by inexperienced artists.
Long-wear and waterproof products need an oil-based cleanser, not micellar water alone. Ask the artist to leave a 5 ml sample of remover or recommend a specific one. Cleanse within 12 hours of application, follow with a barrier cream, and avoid active ingredients for 24 hours to prevent post-event breakouts.
Arrive with clean skin, no heavy moisturiser, and no recent self-tanner within 48 hours. Drink 500 ml of water the hour before. Exfoliate lips 24 hours prior. If you use retinol or acids, stop them 3 days before to avoid stinging under primer. Bring your usual skincare if you have reactive skin.
Some foundations contain SPF that reflects white in flash photography. Tell the artist if your event includes heavy photography. They will switch to a camera friendly formula. Ask to see a flash test photo during the trial to avoid surprise white cast in your final images later on.
A standard daytime makeup application takes 45 to 60 minutes. Bridal or evening looks with lashes and contour usually need 75 to 90 minutes. Add 15 minutes if multiple people are booked back to back. Confirm the timing so your event schedule leaves room for it.
Ask which brands the artist stocks and whether they own shades beyond the 20 lightest tones. A working kit typically includes at least one brand with 40 plus shades, plus specialty lines for olive, deep, or cool undertones. Bring a reference photo of your skin in daylight if your undertone is hard to match.
Foundation should be tested on the jaw, not the hand. Swatch 2 to 3 close shades side by side and step outside or near a window with indirect daylight. The correct tone disappears into the skin. Indoor yellow bulbs can skew the match by half a shade, so ask for a daylight check before booking.
