About Makeup Artist

Colour Matching in Natural Light

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.

Cancellations, Deposits, and Reschedules

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.

What Affects the Final Price

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.

Trial Sessions and Why They Matter

Most reputable artists offer a trial run 2 to 4 weeks before the event. The trial tests longevity, color match, and comfort on your skin. Allow 90 to 120 minutes for a full trial. If the artist skips this step, ask why. A rushed first-time application often leads to midday fading or creasing.

After-Removal Care

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.

Hairline, Neck, and Ear Coverage

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.

Primer, Base, and Setting Choices

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.

Photos, Lighting, and Flash Reaction

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.

Hygiene and Sanitation Standards

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.

Skin Type and Product Matching

Good artists ask about your skin type, allergies, and any active skin conditions before booking. They match foundation to your undertone and skin finish. Ask which brands they use and whether products are fragrance free. Bring photos of your skin in natural light so they can plan the right base formula.
