A makeup artist’s job is to enhance a person’s facial aesthetics through the use of makeup. Their work includes correcting blemishes, highlighting facial assets, creating the perfect eye look for specific events, and creating prosthetics for those who needs special effects.
Depending on how many clients are in need of their services, makeup artists work alone or as a part of a team and they usually gain loyal clients in the process. Proving themselves capable of handling the responsibility, they are also referred to by old clients therefore acquiring new ones.
The traits, qualities, and abilities of successful makeup artists are what sets them apart from other makeup artists. Clients keep on coming back for their services if they are satisfied not only by their work, but also on how reliable, approachable, and flexible they are.
By giving their best, it is not unusual for them to receive compliments. It is nice to know that you are noticed and valued from time to time. This results in motivated continuous effort to strive to do more for what brings praise to others.
You can give proper compliments to your makeup artists depending on the trait or ability that you see in them.
For Their Professionalism and Excellent Communication Skills
Some clients want a specific look that they want. Being able to listen and talk to them to ensure they are satisfied prevents future problems. It also saves you time from doing things all over again. You may start by telling them how accommodating they are and that they truly care about their work and the people they do it for.
For Their Ability to Work Under Pressure
Events have different timelines. When these aren’t met the way it should be, problems arise and people tend to panic and cause time pressure to others especially to the event organizers and suppliers. There are some though, who are just plain meticulous with their requests. Makeup artist who are able to handle these seamlessly can put their presence in the room makes you feel relaxed goes a long way.
For Their Ability to Make You Look Your Best
This part is the best compliment any hair and makeup artist can ever receive. This is the reason why you hired a makeup artist in the first place. Simple words like they did a wonderful job of making them look spectacular will surely make them put more effort when you hire them in the future.
For The Items in Their Makeup Kit
Makeup artists work really hard to build their makeup kit. I think I speak for everyone when I say that we all had to start somewhere. I, for one, started with drugstore products until I was eventually able to upgrade to high end. My lighting is better now and I have a telescopic chair to pair with it. I like it when people say my kit is gorgeous, complete or high end!
Compliments are a really great way to boost a makeup artist’s morale and you never know how many times you’ll be needing them for your upcoming events. So be nice and build a good relationship with your go-to makeup artist. Simple, kind words go a long way.
