Hiring a Professional Makeup Artist vs.going to a makeup counter at a department store

I wanted to start adding to my blog some answers to questions I get asked on a regular basis. In this post, I will focus on the benefits of hiring a professional freelance makeup artist vs. going to a makeup counter to have your makeup done for any type of event.

Makeup counter employees are hired as sales people, not makeup artists, meaning their goal is to upsell the consumer as much as possible, not providing a high quality makeup application service. One of the biggest downside to going to a makeup counter is the harsh fluorescent lighting. Proper makeup application requires the most natural lighting possible to select the proper colors for your skin tone, etc. A professional makeup artist will most likely have a professional makeup light to ensure the right colors are used on you to flatter your coloring. This is especially important if there will be photography at your event. The other downside to going to a makeup counter is that you will not be their priority. They will have other customers distracting them to buy products and asking questions. Distractions can lead to them rushing your makeup application and possibly not remembering the exact look you wanted to begin with and the result will end up in you not getting the makeup look you had hoped for and a 45 minute appointment turning into an hour or longer. This will be a huge problem in any case where you have to be somewhere at a certain time such as a wedding or photo shoot.

Professional Freelance Makeup Artists, for the most part, are professionally trained and certified in all areas of makeup application. We specialize in makeup applications for every type of event whether it be bridal, photography or video. Satisfaction of clientèle is our business, as a luxury service we communicate prior to your service, prepare and sanitize our kits in our own time ,travel to you and give you our undivided attention until your service is complete. We stay up-to-date on current trends to give you a look that is current not out dated. We are well trained in different makeup looks for every occasion and any type of look requested (such as romantic, classic or dramatic). We stock every colour needed in professional quality and luxury brands covering every skin tone, skin type, undertone, eye colour face shape and so on. We are focused on you, your experience and finished look! 

With that said, let me emphasize that not all freelance makeup artists are equal in that some have had professional training and are certified, however not all do. When searching for a freelance makeup artist ask about their training and experience. A professionally trained and certified Makeup Artist can make all the difference in how your makeup application turns out. A makeup artist with little or no training or experience will not understand the differences in facial shapes and eye shapes. They will not possess the know how to select the correct colors for your specific skin-tone, hair and eye color. They may not understand the importance of using proper lighting to enable them to select the right colors for you. They may not stock professional, high quality makeup and use cheap drug store makeup that will not last as long.

In closing, if you want the best outcome for your makeup application for any event, it is worth it to invest in a makeup artist that is professionally trained. You will rest assured that you will walk away with the look you were hoping for! You will not be pressured into buying products you may not need and you can relax in your own environment, not being rushed out the door.
