When meeting with your bridal makeup artist, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you're on the same page and that they can meet your expectations. Here are five questions to ask:
Can I see your portfolio or examples of your previous bridal makeup work?
Viewing their past work can help you assess their style and skill level, ensuring it aligns with your vision for your wedding day look.
Do you offer a makeup trial, and how does it work?
Makeup trials are crucial to ensure your makeup artist understands your preferences and can create a look you love. Ask about the cost, duration, and what you should bring to the trial.
What makeup products and brands do you typically use?
By being aware of the makeup products and brands someone uses, you can gain valuable insights into the exceptional quality and long-lasting effects of their makeup choices. It's also essential if you have allergies or specific product preferences.
How do you handle different skin types and tones?
Make sure the makeup artist has experience working with different skin types and tones. This is important to get the perfect look for your wedding day.
What is your pricing structure, and what does it include?
There may be additional costs such as touch-ups, travel, or early morning appointments. Knowing the full pricing structure will help you budget accordingly.
Bonus tip: Don't forget to discuss the schedule for the wedding day, including the time they need to start and finish your makeup, and any other details specific to your wedding. Clear communication is key to a stress-free wedding day experience.
