Getting married is a once in a lifetime experience and being THE bride for the day is a very special feeling!  When I think back to my wedding day, I wanted all eyes on me (and my hubby!!).

Last year, I was lucky enough to be a part of a record number of weddings.  2012 left a special place in my heart not only because of how many weddings I was able to be a part of, but also because of the incredible clients I was able to serve!

I am constantly thinking of ways to improve my clients' experience and leave a lasting impression on their special day! After a great deal of thought and careful consideration:

As of January 2013, I will only be working with ONE BRIDAL PARTY!  

This is a HUGE change in my model and I am thrilled to announce this move!

• As a Makeup Artistry by Meg Bridal Beauty, you are the ONLY Bride for my day!  
• When you book with Makeup Artistry by Meg, no need to book your start time (as most of my beauties book 6-9 months in advance).  Your start time can be finalized 8 weeks prior to your BIG day!
• Need to add additional applications?!  The more the merrier!! 
• Your wedding planners will thank you and thank me!! (trust me)

As an artist, my passion for the beauty I am able to create with such beautiful canvases is an honor!  Working with only a single bridal party per day will allow me to absorb the love that is all around and truly be in each moment with my bridal beauties!

Wedding Season is in FULL swing!

Signs of a Professional Makeup Artist

Recently, I had the pleasure of working with one of my precious bridal beauties to test the proper looks for her BIG day!
During our initial conversation, she had many questions about proper application, products, and longevity of the look...

After our in-depth consultation (basically, I will ask you EVERYTHING possible about your special day), I discovered she recently had a very negative encounter with another "makeup-artist!"....please read on!

Please know that when hiring any professional, that they truly are a professional!

Signs of a TRUE, PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP ARTIST:

*The professional will have all of the necessary products to complete the exact look you are desiring!
*The professional may have a few tried and try drugstore brands in their kit (I carry only 3 items that can be purchased at CVS), but the kit will only include the finest in cosmetics!
*Ask your makeup artist when they last executed a professional training and continuing education class?! (This will give huge insight)
*During your consultation, are they taking notes?! I could never remember all of the details from every bride! Having those notes are such a valuable resource!

If you are ever asked to bring your OWN foundation, to provide your OWN lashes, or anything else....RUN THE OTHER WAY!

Hiring a professional makeup artist can be pricey, but please know that you are paying for the QUALITY OF PRODUCT, CONSISTENT EDUCATION, and A KIT (or in my case 4 kits) to have all of the necessary goodies!

Have questions, please feel free to email me at meg@makeupartistrybymeg.com

Love and Lashes,
Meg

Drugstore to Dior

Everyday I hear from clients who are overwhelmed by the endless beauty and cosmetic options!

Basics of beauty and questions to ask yourself:
1. How would you define your beauty style? Natural, Glam, Trendy, etc
2. How much time would you like to dedicate (key word) to your beauty routine?
3. What is your beauty and cosmetics budget? Every client's beauty budget is different...I personally would spend $75 on the PERFECT lipstick but only $10 on mascara!

There are quality products that won't break your budget, which perform just as well as any counter brand! What drugstore brands are lacking include (but are not limited to): pigment concentration, research, key anti-aging products, and fancy packaging.

Some of my faves:
L'Oreal Million Lashes (AMAZING is an understatement)
CoverGirl Lash Blast Mascara (original orange tube!!)
Revlon Photo Stay Foundation (great stuff, lightweight yet full coverage)


Some of my FAVORITE counter products:
Smashbox Primer (primer is THE key to a happy marriage with you foundation)
Estee Lauder More than Mascara
Cargo Better than Waterproof Mascara (for all of you that have watery eyes, yet prefer not to look like a raccoon the next day)

Email meg@makeupartistrybymeg.com with any questions! My product reviews are based upon my tried and true performance with the product!

XOXO
Meg
