Color coordination: All the colors used in your makeup should be in the same family and coordinate. You could either use the cool tones or warm tones. Do not mix up cool and warm together.

Theme coordinating: The whole look should follow the same theme (hair, makeup, jewelry and gown, shoes, etc).

Tips to find a makeup artist for your up-coming occasion? Imagine it is your big day, the final and very important detail of your preparation to start your whole experience is your hair and makeup. It always strikes me that how much money is spent in a wedding to please family and friends verses to giving to the main person “the bride,” whom is the center and the star of the show.  Everyone is there to see the bride. Dear bride, do not deprive your guests and yourself from the best possible performance & appearance of your lifetime. You need to have the best and you deserve it. Here are some hints on what to look into when hiring a makeup artist, Punctuality and Timing, Confidence, Professionalism, Hygiene, Personality or Attitude, Years of Experience, Makeup Kit and Quality of Cosmetics.

Beauty salon for a wedding makeup and hair style?  Here is what to watch for: traditionally beauty salons do not do contracts and just exchange words with the clients and make a note in a general shop calendar. The problem with this method is that the salon artists must be sure that they have work booked up for the day of event also. In that case what happens is they “over book” for the sake of “potential cancellations” by a few of the reserved clients. In most cases all of the clients show up and that is why it is known that salon weddings are to be late for their timing. So a detailed contract may save you a lot of hassle and time if you are working with a salon artist. I don’t see why not working with a punctual and talented salon artist if that is what you wish to do. In my opinion a free lancer is a better choice.

Is it necessary to do a contract or written agreement & to secure your reservations? Please be aware of an artist who is not prepared to give you his or her written commitment. It is an excellent way of reinsuring your reservation. It also shows that your artist will keep a track of time and other details of the day of event. Isn’t that a sign of professionalism as well as punctuality?

Here are the numbers you do the math! Bottom line you want to have a skilled confident artist who can create a look that you have always had in your mind. Artists who can help you see the most beautiful of you and help you find out the best possible “look” for you as well as achieving it. The artist who is respectful of your need and desire also contributes her/his opinion to benefit the situation along with professional attitude. You do not want to sit on somebody’s chair for one hour and be uncomfortable. After all makeup is very personal and intimate experience. It could easily become one of the worst or best experiences of your life. Remember makeup is the last detail to start your big day so why not for it to be fun and a pleasant event. And it sure could be. So do your homework and if you have to pay a little more just do it, because you’re worth it. Remember to ask for a detailed contract at the time of leaving your deposit.

What is a bridal, vender contract/ agreement? A bridal contract is a paper that states all the details of the service, as well as the deposit amount and the total of costs. This is a promise proof from your vender to you. A verbal promise may not hold as strong. This is exchanged between the vender professional and the bride at the time of booking. The contract will provide a security and an understanding of the nature of the services for both parties. Make sure you get a detailed contract from your vender and be aware of venders who won’t offer one.

How do you know how much to pay for a good makeover? How much an artist worth to pay for? Can you really put a price on an artwork? How do you do that? Well, let me give you few tips to help you weed out some troubles to help you hire an artist who is worth your budget.
Makeup & hair is the last detail and one of the most important elements to start your special day. Every artist has his or her price; however the price could vary from range of $50 to $1000 or may be in some cases more or less depending to the city, state or time of the year or popularity of the artist. But an average rate for bridal makeup is about $175 and for bridal party $85.
Of course $50 would hire you an Avon lady who would try to sell you cosmetics on the day of the special event. For some clients, it may not be an option to pay $1000 for a makeup application. So let’s get in to the point.
Word of mouth, referrals and web site search will lead you to some artist which you will be choosing yours. Do a trial session and if you decided to hire the artist sign a contract for exchange of your security deposit to secure the date. Please tip your artist especially if they are doing a trial for a very little money. It pays off, trust me.

 If you are getting what you want it is worth any money. If you are not sure what you would like to have, it is a good idea to get some honest opinion from a friend or a person who understands makeup and style. Your grandmother or aunt, or someone in that rank, does not count. You want to ask people who like makeup and ware makeup. Remember that no need to ask for opinion of too many people because you can not possibly make everyone happy.

Water proof makeup verses water resistance makeup? The difference between the two is: that water resistant makeup only resist water and body perspirations. It is less durable but easier to remove when needed to be removed and in most time removable with a general remover. It is recommended for everyday use. For example if you use a water proof mascara every day, and try to remove it every night perhaps after one month you have no lashes left since it is very difficult to get it dissolved and removed. It is not recommended for everyday use. Water proof makeup is not really water proof at all the times. This term is used to tell you that the makeup is more resistance to water. Perhaps you need to have a cream base cleanser to remove it. It is recommended to be used for occasions. And please remember that regardless of its resistance the makeup is not tattooed to the skin it is still fragile and will be removed if you touch your face and get careless with it.
