Hi loves! This post is going to be all about presentation. How you present yourself and your work is very important, especially in a presentation based industry.
Appearence:
When doing someone's make-up you have to think of a few things when choosing your outfit regarding practicality. You need to make sure that you can freely move in your outfit, that the neck-line isn't too low (I mean, i'm sure you don't want your boobs swinging around in your clients face) and colour! Especially if you're doing a bridal, you might be in the background of 'behind the scenes' shots and you don't want to take the attention away from your gorgeous bride by wearing a neon pink top. I tend to stick to black personally, this could be because of my admiration for the MAC counter or down to the fact that my wardrobe is 98% black garments.
When going to do someone's make-up you don't have to have a full face of make-up on though, I mean, they've booked you for a reason you don't have to prove yourself. Personally I at-least always wear a little bit (brows, concealer, foundation, bronzer and mascara) just to look put together but no one will shoot you if you show up with no make-up, it's what you can do to their face that matters. My blogpost, Make a Statement In a Rush, is the perfect example of the quick, simple but put together look I aim for.

Yourself:
This goes without saying but you need to be polite and kind. You are representing your business when you are on your freelance duties so your manners are important. Even if you do amazing make-up, if you're rude and up yourself you will not be booked again. The relationships you build and maintain with your clients are the most important remember that!
Sorry for the delay on this post lovelies, I've had a jam-packed week full of work, enrolment at college and freelances! Hope you enjoy your bank holiday Monday.
