SO, let me give a little back story..Sorry if it’s long. first I am a makeup artist, I know makeup, I love makeup. I follow this guy on Instagram who has 145k followers, he teaches classes, etc. I was excited to get my makeup done by him. I paid in full $100 for my trial, the day before I ask him if...
SO, let me give a little back story..Sorry if it’s long. first I am a makeup artist, I know makeup, I love makeup. I follow this guy on Instagram who has 145k followers, he teaches classes, etc. I was excited to get my makeup done by him. I paid in full $100 for my trial, the day before I ask him if we are still good for our date, & he says “ remind me again” so I remind him & he asks if I had paid already I said yes. (you should know all this??) The day if I message him asking if we can push it back 30 min if not it’s okay, he said no & I message him back 15 min later and say okay that’s fine I’m on my way I’ll be there 5 min before & he says oh I thought you wanted to cancel so I started on someone. I never said anything about canceling. Anyways, we schedule for this past Saturday, I message him Monday ask I we are still okay, he asks me to remind him again & asks if I paid, again... I get to the location the day of & ask where to park, he says “ are you here for an appointment?” WTH??? Yes..
so I tell him, appointment is at 1, I got there at 12:50, I wait for him until 1:10. Some other girls had an appointment at 1 also for a class, one girl said he canceled on her twice. So I was his “model” that day.

now to the makeup- I hated it. I felt like he rushed it and also maybe because I do makeup we have different techniques & preferences. My contour wasn’t blended, my blush looks like I’m bruised, my eyebrows were uneven. I was SO disappointed.. Safe to say I’m not booking him & I might just do it myself!

    I had a makeup trial and wasn't happy with my look either. You will have better luck yourself!

    I’m so sorry for your bad experience! If you know what you like i would just do it yourself. I want to feel pampered but am too scared of putting my look in someone elses hands!!

    I could see why you're so unhappy with your makeup. Definitely not something I'd pay good money for, especially for my wedding day.

    I had a similar experience in that I paid a highly recommended MUA and Hairstylist a non-refundable $200 deposit for my trial and I absolutely hated it. It was rushed and neither of them did anything even remotely close to what I asked for. I ultimately booked someone else, but it was definitely a total burn to be out that $200.

    Good luck to you in finding someone else or doing it yourself! I'm sure you'll be a gorgeous bride!
