Makeup Love by Alex

Introduction: Hello and thank you for visiting my page! Please read this in it’s ENTIRETY before contacting me as many frequently asked questions are answered below and I’ve taken a lot of time to type it all out for you! I’m Alex and I am a true makeup lover! Despite working as a mental health therapist, makeup is my love. Over the years I’ve applied makeup to hundreds of beauties of all skin types and ethnicities. I specialize in wedding, prom, special events, and costume makeup. I am a mobile makeup artist where I will travel to you saving valuable time the day of your event. I also have a home studio available for makeup trials and makeup for non mobile clients. For mobile events, I bring with me all the needed equipment to do the job right. This includes makeup to cater to all skin tones and needs, lighting, and a tall makeup chair. My makeup is all inclusive including primer, full face of makeup, lashes (yes lashes included free), and setting spray. I offer extra bold lashes for an additional fee but my complimentary sets are beautiful and many people go with those. Note ** If the client does NOT want lashes there is NOT a discount. I am simply offering these as a freebie to my clients because they really complete the look. As you can see from my reviews here and on my google page, my makeup will last you all day. People often ask me about airbrush and although I know how to do it, I choose not to. This is because I feel it is pricey and only looks beautiful for a short time and then dissolves. I prefer to give my clients a look that is beautiful and fresh but lasts all day. My pricing is very competitive due to having a full time job and a makeup obsession! I charge $60 per client plus a one time travel fee (yes you read that right!). **for mobile events I have a 3 person minimum or a $150 fee for only 1 or 2 clients. If this is not in your price range please be aware before contacting me. ** For example: makeup for 1 -$150 ; for 2 -$150 ; for 3- $180 ; for 4-$240 ...and etc going up in $60 increments. I also offer a discounted rate for Flower girls and junior bridesmaids of $15 + depending on the desired amount of makeup. The one time travel fee is calculated at a rate of $.50 per mile from my home studio in Salisbury, NC to your location. I’m willing to travel up to 3 hours away. Anything over 3 hours away will require a lodging fee. I’ve even flown to NY to do a wedding as travel isn’t a problem for me at all! This can be precisely calculated once I know the exact meeting location. Any parking fees would also be tacked on to this price. To clarify, I only charge the travel fee once and usually the bride or the wedding party will split this cost. It is NOT tacked on to each person’s $60. For example: travel fee from my home to a center city Charlotte hotel is about 50 miles. Therefore a one time $50 fee would be required. If there was no free parking option and valet required then that fee would be also be applied. To secure your date beyond chats I require a phone conversation with you, and a 25% non refundable deposit. You will receive a receipt for your records. You can submit via cash, credit card, check, PayPal, cash app, Venmo, or Zelle. Lastly I offer a free trial for any brides. You would either have to come to my home studio in Salisbury, NC or I could come to you and only charge you the travel fee. I look forward to hearing from you and potentially being a part of your special event!!
