Yes, most of the makeup artists, self-proclaimed or otherwise, know a thing to about makeup. However, only the masters know it all, and your job is to find them. You have to make sure that they know everything, from best to worst products, their effective uses and most importantly, their side effects. This now leads us to the second most important point.
Now, their knowledge can be pretty impressive, however, their original work will tell a different story. Once you open that portfolio, don’t just swift through pages, but check if their claims are right.
This might seem out of the blue, however, it is extremely important that they know how to play well with colors. In order to clarify it, you have to do your research first and ask them relevant questions. If they seem to know it well, then voila, you have got yourself an MUA!
Multitasking is considered cool, but sometimes it can lead to epic failure. If you happen to see your MUA working, then observe their demeanor. They might walk around fast, and seem to be involved in a million tasks at once, yet you’ll notice not one task is completed. As a bride to be, you can’t afford to book someone who can’t manage the most obvious of all things.i.e. their time.
If MUA says yes to everything you say, then again, they are not the one. In case, they agree too early then perhaps it is time to say goodbye. The fact is that the person has to be professional enough to tell you where you stand wrong. Believe you me, they mostly do that in a polite manner. Therefore, talk to your MUA and effectively communicate your concerns. This will improve your confidence in them and vice versa.
This is where you will finally give a go if you like the MUA’s work and their way of doing it. Therefore, once it is done, you should ask the necessary questions and make a decision.
