Beauty Beyond Makeup

Hello All!

Have you ever encountered a physically beautiful person, with a less than appealing attitude or demeanor? Don't worry, we all have!

As a Makeup Artist we have to provide the total package. We are our own business mascot. Yes, the skills you possess will get you in the door, but your positive attitude and pleasant disposition will make them want to call you back for additional services.

Repeat customers are the driving force behind your career. Those customers will not only call you for their makeup needs, but also refer you to others that my be interested in hiring a MUA. Those relationships are built on more than just the art is applying makeup. They want to know you can be trusted, you are professional, polite and personable. These are skills no YouTube video can teach, but are dire to the success of your business.

As an up and coming MUA, there are things that I make sure I do when working with my clients:

·         Always follow up with clients before event to solidify details to include, pricing, time, parking, length of service, etc.

·         If any changes occur, keep the client up to date

·         Arrive 20-30min prior to start time to set up

·         Come with a positive attitude

·         Keep work area clean and neat

·         Use proper sanitation methods for hand washing and bush cleaning

·         Never let the client see you sweat!!!

                                                                               

These things and more help me to be more marketable to future clients. I have already been referred to others by previous clients, so the method works! Yet, I have still so much to learn.

 

My goal is to make my MUA career, a full time career. I want clients to seek me out not only because I make them beautiful on the outside, but also because I am a great business woman.

Until next time….
