There are many factors to consider when planning a wedding, and choosing a bridal makeup artist is a difficult task. Don't want to end up with a quarrel on your wedding day due to lack of communication? Before signing the contract, the bride should remember to let the makeup artist know your wedding style, wedding dress style, etc. before starting the makeup trial. The following 6 tips will teach you how to choose a bridal makeup artist that suits you. Make a decision after you understand each other clearly!
1Does she have a portfolio?
Get a feel for the bridal makeup artist's style and skill level by looking at photos of other weddings they've done. The photos will show how their makeup looks in photos, and if it fits your overall style, consider hiring her as your wedding makeup artist!
2Can she do bridesmaid makeup?
Your bridesmaids may choose not to wear makeup at your wedding or wear very minimal makeup. If your makeup artist (or their team) is willing to help your bridesmaids with makeup in the morning and touch ups during the wedding, please both parties specify in the terms whether there will be an additional charge, which can save a lot of trouble and disputes.
3Do you need cosmetics for different skin types?
After trying on makeup, if your facial skin feels itchy or starts to feel uncomfortable, it is recommended to ask your makeup artist to make sure she has prepared makeup and styling products for different skin types, especially products that can be used for sensitive skin.
4Does the bride need to bring any products herself?
If there is a certain lipstick color that is your favorite or a certain concealer brand that you often use, it is recommended that you communicate with your makeup artist in advance to see what cosmetics the bride needs to prepare in case of emergencies on the wedding day.
5. Clearly state the charging terms and form when signing the contract
Both parties must specify before signing the contract whether they will adopt the payment method of advance payment or post-payment balance, so as to avoid the embarrassing situation that one party refuses to pay the balance after the wedding.
6Can the bridal makeup artist give you a discount?
If the bridal makeup artist takes care of the entire pre-wedding party and wedding makeup, she may be able to give you a satisfactory discount. It is most important to negotiate the price clearly before signing the contract.
