A lady I babysit for sells Mary Kay and she is going to do my make-up for a trial, bridals, and ceremony with no charge. I do plan to buy the lip gloss because I will want to refresh. I absolutely want to give her a good tip. But, I need help. How much should I tip her for all three services and should I tip after each or all at the end with a thank-you card?
Thanks!!

    i would tip after each service and I would tip at least $10 for the trial and at least $20 for the ceremony. I don't know what you mean by the bridals. In my area, a lot of make up counters charge $50 for makeovers so I'm using that figure to help come up with a tip amount. However I would give a bigger tip on the wedding day since I'm assuming she is doing it on site and it is very generous of her  do all of this for free.

    Sorry I didn't explain better. She is also doing my makeup for my bridal portraits which will be taken 5 months before the wedding. I will be going to her house each time, even on the wedding day. I think 10 each time will be good, but 20 on wedding day. Thanks so much for the help!!

    Tip her after the trial, then on the wedding day, tip her agian with a thank you card.   I'd tip at least $100 on the wedding day - that's a massively generous thing she's doing for you.
