Getting your makeup done can be so daunting, especially if youâve had an awful experience in the past.
These are some of the most common things I hear from clients when they sit down to have their makeup done đđŒ
1. âI donât usually wear makeup.â
And that is SO fine!
Usually, this tells me youâre probably not used to seeing a lot of makeup on yourself, so if I went straight in with a heavy application, bold eyes, cheeks and lips⊠youâre gonna FREAK OUT đ
So instead, Iâll take that into consideration and make sure we create something that still makes you feel like you, while still feeling that little bit extra đ€
2. âI donât want to look cakey.â
This tells me youâve possibly had a bad experience before.
Maybe you had a full-coverage base applied, followed by lots of powder and heavy layers, or perhaps the wrong products were used for your skin type.
Then a few hours later, your makeup wasnât sitting nicely and you hated how it looked and the way it made you feel.
So guess what we arenât doing⊠đ
ALL. OF. THAT.
Weâre going to make sure your skin still looks and feels like skin, while making sure your makeup lasts and you feel comfortable in whatâs on your face.
3. âI donât care, do whatever you reckon.â
Okay⊠I LOVE this one đ
This tells me you just want to have fun, feel beautiful and trust me to do what I think will suit you.
Youâve possibly already had a scroll through my page, you like what you see and youâre happy for me to create something completely catered to you â your features, your colouring, your outfit and the occasion.
And honestly, those are some of my favourite faces to do. đ€
Because at the end of the day, getting your makeup done shouldnât feel scary.
You should be able to sit down, relax, trust your artist and leave feeling like the best version of yourself.
