Mac Makeup Artist

Does anyone know if Mac consultants will come out to your home day of wedding and how much do they charge?

    I don't know any of them that come to you the day of the wedding, but one of my friends went to them and they did her make-up trial. At the trial they created a face for her on paper with the actual make-up and taught her how to apply it. She bought the make-up to match and she looked beautiful on her wedding day. I know it's not what you're looking for, but it's an idea. Good Luck!

    Bridetobe...do you have any idea how much that was (i.e. how much all her makeup for the day cost)? I'm trying to decide what route to go as well. Thanks!

    They will come to you but it's side work for them, not through MAC. I suggest going to the MAC counter and have your make-up done. It's free with a $50 purchase. If you like the make-up artist, then ask if you can contact her outside of work to discuss day-of make-up.

    Agree with Paige&Nick. Where are you located? I had my makeup done at a Mac counter in Charlotte and the girl was awesome. She's also a makeup artist and they will give you their card if you ask. They can't quote you their rates in the store but I was going to email her to see what she charges. If you have time day of, its a better deal to get it done for "free" and buy $50 worth of makeup. However, you have to have patience because she was dong my makeup during the trial and still had to help other clients. But, I wasn't in any rush so it wasn't a big deal. Day of I will give myself 90 minutes just to be safe.

    I booked with Casey Nelson and she uses MAC products.  I'm not sure whether she'll charge extra to travel but you can always ask.  She's meeting me at the salon right near where she lives in Cornelius so it's pretty convenient for her.  She's charging me $95 for makeup and fake lashes.  It's $60 each for my mom and sister.
