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.
A makeup artist service covers skin prep, foundation matching, eye makeup, contouring, lipstick, and setting. Some include hairstyling, lashes, or touch-up kits. Ask if the artist brings their own products or expects you to supply any. Confirm whether the price covers just application or full trial sessions too.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
