Are You Choosing The Right Makeup Artist For Your Wedding?

Of all the days to hold back on makeup, your wedding day is certainly not one of them. With so much effort put in for planning the big day, you obviously want to make sure you look your stunning best in all the photographs. That’s the reason why we think finding the perfect makeup artist is as important as finding your soulmate! :P Yup, and since you’ve already found the latter, here’s our guide that’ll help you find the perfect Makeup Artist for your big day.

1. Shortlist an Appearance:

   Before selecting an artist or even beginning the hunt it’s important that you decide a ‘look’ for the main day. Browse through wedding magazines or makeup artists on the internet for reference. Sites like Pinterest also offer great makeup options for to-be brides. In other cases, if you like a bride’s makeup at a wedding, approach her and take details of the makeup artist. Make sure your makeup goes well with your outfit. Yup, you do not want to go up on the stage looking like a Christmas tree! Decide whether you’ll be getting ready at the home, the venue, or at the salon. It’s preferable to appoint makeup artists from the area you choose so last minute there wouldn’t be any delays.

2. Go Through Several Portfolios:

   Before selecting an artist, check if their style of makeup is similar to yours. Browse through blogs and websites that have a list of vendors you can choose from. Also while going through the portfolios pay attention to details like the brands used by them or how their work looks on and off-camera.

3. Choose an Affable Makeup Artist:

   Besides the work, it’s imperative that your makeup artist has a good personality too. You don’t want to have a miserable experience on your big day as you will be spending a lot of time with your artist, whilst getting ready. So it’s important to hire someone who can prep and pep you up! And use the right makeup products.

4. Trial Session Is a Must:

   Once you’ve finalized the artist, schedule a trial appointment with them as soon as possible. Discuss the looks you’ve shortlisted and see if they’d be comfortable with it. A trial helps both you and the artist to build a comfort level.
   If you’re not satisfied with their work, you could always look for another artist. That’s why it’s recommended to have a trial before the big day.
