Make-up Artist/bridesmaid question

So I've chosen my hairdresser and I also wanted to use her companies services for make-up. My problem is that they require four make-up services in order to book for make-up. I've contacted my bridesmaids and three of the four have said that they plan on doing their own make-up. 

So my question(s) is:

Do I find another make-up artist? If so, does anyone know airbrush make-up artists that are willing to only do one or two services on my day? 

Should I just pay for my bridesmaids to get their make-up done? I think two out of the three that don't want make-up done don't want it merely because they prefer their own look though, and not because of cost. 

Please help!  TIA

    I would talk to your BMs and ask if you paid for it if they're be interested.  If yes, then use that person; if no then you could ask your mom or MIL if they're interested

    I know Sonia Roselli personally will do a bride only if you are in the city. I wanted to use her but she is in LA for my wedding day. But I used one of her associates and very happy with her. Not sure if she is available for your date but you can ask. She is a little on the pricier side though but has a stellar repuation on Yelp.

    I had a similar situation. Two of my BM's didn't want to a pay for airbrush, so they got their MU done at the salon where we had our hair done. I ended up paying for myself and my mom to equal four applications (my other two BM's wanted airbrush). You could also check if you have any sisters/cousins/aunts, etc. might want their make up done.

    I had the same issue.

    My artist (loni Hale with Fashion Forward Beauty) doesn't have any requirements or minimums to meet. She was THE only one I could find.

    Her prices:

    200 for bridal hair
    200 for bridal makeup (includes trial)
    80 for BM makeup
    50-70 for BM hair
