Makeup Artist in Pointe-Claire

Pricing is usually per face for events and per booking for weddings, where a trial plus the wedding-day application costs more than a single party look. Bridal is the premium tier because of the trial, the stakes and early-morning timing. Travel/call-out fees, false lashes and airbrushing are common add-ons — ask what's included.

Yes — a trial is where you agree the look, test how it wears and photographs, and confirm the artist understands your skin and style. It's the single best way to avoid a wedding-morning surprise. Budget for it as part of the bridal package; most reputable artists include or strongly recommend one.

Airbrush applies foundation as a fine mist for a lightweight, long-wearing, camera-friendly finish, and it's popular for weddings and photoshoots. Traditional application is more customisable and better for very dry or textured skin. Neither is universally 'better' — it depends on your skin and the look; a good artist will advise.

Many do, especially for weddings and events, usually with a travel/call-out fee based on distance. On-location saves you time on a hectic morning. Confirm whether the quoted price is studio-based or includes travel, and clarify any early-start surcharge for dawn wedding calls.

For weddings, 6-12 months ahead for popular dates — the best artists book out for peak-season weekends well in advance. For events and shoots, a few weeks is usually enough. Once your date is fixed, secure the artist (and the trial) early rather than leaving it to the last month.

Event makeup commonly runs CAD 75-150 per face, and bridal packages CAD 150-500 for the bride (trial plus day), with the bridal party per-person on top. Airbrush, lashes and travel are add-ons.
