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.
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.
Price depends on event type, number of people, travel distance, and whether lashes and hairstyling are included. Weekend and holiday bookings cost more. An artist with 5 or more years of experience charges higher rates. Always request a written quote that lists what is and is not included.
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.
Good primers are matched to skin condition, not just skin type. Silicone primers smooth pores, hydrating primers fix flakes, and grip primers hold colour makeup. Ask which setting spray the artist uses: a fine mist with humectants extends wear by 1 to 2 hours compared to powder alone, especially under mask or air conditioning.
Ask whether the artist uses disposable mascara wands, clean brushes, and sanitized palettes. Eye infections like styes or conjunctivitis can spread through reused wands. Brushes should be washed between clients. A clean kit is non-negotiable for safety around the eyes and lips.
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.
Ask for a portfolio split into categories: bridal, editorial, soft glam, and stage. Confirm the artist has worked on at least 3 skin tones close to yours. A versatile kit usually holds 40 to 60 foundation shades, multiple lash styles, and cream or powder palettes for both daytime and evening finishes.
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.
Most solo artists handle 1 client every 90 to 120 minutes. For 3 or more people, ask whether they bring a senior assistant, since rates drop slightly per head. Confirm chair and mirror availability, and cap the group at 5 people per artist to keep quality and timing steady throughout the morning.
