5 tips on booking your make up artist

How to choose your bridal make up artist

Where to begin when choosing your make up artist for your destination wedding in Croatia? These are our 5 essential tips to consider when booking a makeup artist:

–       Is your MUA experienced in weddings? Does your preferred artist have experience in wedding makeup? How experienced is she? Can she work under stress and deadlines? All these questions are important to consider when considering your perfect makeup artist.

–       Ask about the artist’s makeup styles and techniques – is your preferred artist good at soft glam, natural, or maybe dramatic smoky eye with voluminized lashes? Many make up artists in Croatia have different styles and techniques so it is always recommended to book the one that best matches your personality and style.

–       Examples of work – we recommend asking the artist to provide examples of work or an Insta link showcasing the artist’s experience. However, keep in mind that sometimes a visual on Insta can be retouched or a filter is often used so that may impact the final result. Furthermore, how many years of experience does the artist have?  Also, it would be great to receive testimonials and recommendations from previous brides. All these questions will help you compare the artists and book the one that best matches your style.

–       The budget – inquire about the costs and see if the cost fits your budget. Ask about other additional fees – travel cost, makeup trial, the minimum number of ladies etc.

–       Products and brands used – most professional planners usually work with premium makeup products, however, it is always advisable to communicate this part, especially if there is a makeup brand you prefer/or are allergic to.

By communicating your plans and preferences, you will give your makeup artist the right introduction and information about your big day. Usually, makeup artists always ask clients what they’ll be wearing, what color is the dress, and the overall wedding theme and decor.

Chic Croatia recommends if possible to do the hair and makeup trial on the same day so that you can visualize the whole look of your big day.

To finalize, you will be amazed how far in advance the best makeup artists get booked up so make sure to book the one you like on time.
