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.
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.
Humidity above 60 percent shortens makeup wear by 30 to 60 minutes. Ask for a matte base with targeted highlight, plus blotting papers instead of extra powder. If the venue has no air conditioning, request a primer with polymer film and a second setting spray layer after 10 minutes of drying time.
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.
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.
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 whether the artist offers a touch up visit or leaves a kit with blotting papers and lipstick. Most applications last 6 to 8 hours with proper setting spray. Sweat, humidity, and tears shorten wear. A primer matched to your skin type extends coverage by 2 to 3 hours in most cases.
Base should blend 2 cm into the hairline and down to the collarbone. Ears often need a thin layer to match face tone under bright lights. Ask if the artist includes neck and shoulder work or charges by zone. A seamless blend here reads cleaner in photos than on the cheeks alone.
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 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.
