{Tips and Advice} Why having a makeup artist is so important!

We have noticed that our brides tend to leave choosing their hair/makeup team till the last minute and sometimes, they choose to let that detail go since their budget has gone overboard with other details. We cannot express how important and fabulous it is to have your makeup done by a proffesional the day of your wedding!



We just attended a wedding (actually two) this past week that Jennifer Trotter with Lip Service Makeup Artistry did our makeup and/or the brides, so we have first hand knowledge of the magic she can work! Seriously, we're trying to figure out how she can do our makeup for us everyday!



During our time with her, even though we were supposed to remain still, apparently we have very expressive faces, we asked her what the top questions were that brides asked her. Here's the scoop we got!



 
1.      I don’t like to wear too much makeup, can you make me look good, but still like myself?
(Yes!  It’s all in the technique, but I can make you look polished and more glamorous while still looking like yourself.)
2.      Can you do the whole wedding party or just me? 
(Yes!  I can do the entire bridal party if you’d like, or just you.   )
 
3.      Why should the whole wedding party get makeup done?
(If some people get makeup done and some don’t, the look of your wedding party is inconsistent…some will have too much, some not enough.  When people only book a partial, the ones who didn’t plan on it ALWAYS want it done, better to plan ahead.)
4.      What do you charge?
(It depends on what you want.  I need to know what services you need (trial run, bridal, etc.), how many in your wedding party, where we’re doing makeup. I take all of that information and then create a custom package for you with discounts built in based on the number of services you book.)
5.      What kind of makeup do you use and do you provide all the materials?
(I use mainly MAC and Smashbox cosmetics, but I also use L’Oreal and Revlon on occasion….good products come at all price points!  Not everything I use is super expensive, but it’s all high quality.)

 
To meet Jennifer and see the top 10 questions she says you should ask any potential vendor, join us at the Unbridaled Open House at Bliss Bridal Salon on June 4th from 6-8 pm!
