Most people do not need to understand the work, technique, and expertise required to be a makeup artist. They transform you into a more beautiful version of yourself. Have you seen brides ruining their bridal makeup with tears of gratitude?
Those brides understand that their makeup artist helped fulfill their dreams on their special day. They put all their talent into making you look even more beautiful.
Not only that, but they were patient with you through the endless complaints or rudeness (if we are honest). Do they deserve a note of thanks, flowers, or even a brand-new car for their efforts?
Since many of us cannot afford expensive presents, all you need is a word or two of gratitude. It could be a written card, verbal, or even a text, but what would you say… any ideas?
A simple thank you will not cut it so here’s a compiled list of ideas you could use;
• Thank you for everything. Thank you for being patient with me despite my demands.
Your work is so professional; I love it.
• I have never seen an eye makeup as good as this. Ever! It is honestly so perfect.
• Oh my gosh! It is just how I imagined it. It is precisely what I wanted. Thank you so much
• You do not understand how grateful I am. Thanks for being on time. I would not have gone through the day without you.
• I know the pressure you were on today with so little time, yet the makeup came out magnificently. You are the best!
• I love that you kept your cool and professionalism under pressure. I know how hard I pushed, and I sincerely apologize. Moreover, so that you know, your art deserves all accolades.
• Thank you for giving me value for my money. The products you used were of the highest quality. I appreciate your work.
• You had everything! My shade is hard to find, and I always bring a bottle just in case, but you surprised me. Your products, your work, and your professionalism are top-tier!
• I never knew I could look this good!
• I will take so many photos, and I am sure they will be so jealous when other girls see me.
• Wow! (Simple but effective)
• Girl, you are my new best friend!
• You are doing my makeup on my wedding day!
You could use any of these and always edit them however you like. In addition, a simple hug would do the work, that is, if you both are comfortable with it. You could send her flowers or buy her a gift, perhaps a makeup tool you noticed in her kit or even an eye shadow palette.
Anything, be it gifts or notes of thanks, will be appreciated.
You may wonder, “Why thank them when you pay them?” Yes, the money is appreciated, but just like every other artiste, they should receive applause for their work of art.
Makeup artists deserve to be complimented for what they do. You never know; your compliments may make their terrible day better.
