I haven’t been an active redditor in some time, and there has been some nastiness in the comments lately. I would love to pass the responsibility off to someone more passionate! Reply in the comments if interested!

Help Bridal contracts

3 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I have my very first bridal consultation coming up over Zoom and I’d love some advice from experienced bridal artists. The bride has a bridal party of 11 people (plus herself), and everyone needs to be completely ready by 7:00 AM. Since this is my first bridal booking of this size, I want to make sure I’m prepared and don’t miss anything. I’m currently working on my bridal contract. What are the must-have clauses or sections you always include?
So far I have things like:
Non-refundable retainer/deposit
Final payment due date
Cancellation/rescheduling policy
Travel fees
Touch-up policy
Photo/video consent
Client responsibilities (clean skin, dry hair, etc.)
What else should I include to protect both myself and the client, especially for a large bridal party?

Also, for those who have done weddings with early morning completion times, are there any tips for scheduling, timelines, assistant/team expectations, or things you wish you had known before your first bridal booking?
I’d really appreciate any advice. Thank you so much!

Hi sweets 🍬
How long have you been doing makeup? Do you have any favourite products? 😋

I've been using a LUNA concealer lately, in a volume of 30 ml, in shade 0.7
I measured the tonal base with them 😅

How to build clientele

3 Upvotes

Any tips for establishing yourself and building clientele as a new makeup artist? I've been doing makeup for years but just now actually putting myself out there. I'm in the DMV so there's tons of opportunity but I just don't know where to start. So far I'm posting in my Next Door neighborhood group. A lot for Facebook groups don't allow self promotion. So I'm open to any other ideas established makeup artists have.

Discussion Beginner at home makeup studio?

3 Upvotes

I was wondering if anyone had any tips for an at home studio when having cats. I’m still in the process of writing out my fees and things of that sort, but traveling to clients is an option in case anyone prefers that. My friends have came over for their makeup applications, but I understand a new client would probably feel different about it. Really my only spaces are my bedroom or living room. My bedroom already has a vanity. What do you recommend in this situation? Should I even try at my home or only take clients at theirs? I’m stuck lol Ideally I’d love to have a designated room or studio, but that’s not really an option yet.

FGS Where can I find the new Marc Jacobs makeup in Germany?

1 Upvotes

I need help to find the new MArc Jacobs makeup line to buy online in Germany but unfortunately it seems impossible!

Sephora and Zalando are not selling, neither is the german Marc Jacobs website. When I put Germany as the shipping destiny, they become unavailable on the basket! UK websites dont send to Germany for some reason!

And when I search for it, it apparently should be selling there since it is in the rest of Europe!

FOR GOD'S SAKE is it even selling in Germany?

I just applied shadow makeup to my eyes and wasn’t sure whether to add brow makeup to my eyebrows, since I’m not very skilled with brow techniques.

What do you think of my makeup looks

My look doesn’t quite look like the inspo picture

2 Upvotes

Hello! I am an aspiring MUA and I am completely self-taught. I am doing bridal makeup for a family friend in a couple of months and we just did the eye lolol trial this past Sunday. The bride loved it but I was a little dissatisfied with it because it didn’t quite look like the photo. Yes, I know the eye shapes will be different. Yes, I know the skin isn’t the same texture. Yes, I know the colors won’t be the exact same. How do I as an artist be confident in what I do to recreate a look, but end up being disappointed it doesn’t translate the same?

I just feel like my brows are starting to look more square and bulky. I took time off of doing my makeup (9 months) and I feel like I’ve lost my touch? Any Suggestions please be soft with me… I’m pregnant and really emotional about my makeup. 🥺
