A good makeup artist is the one who follows beauty regimes to keep their client’s skin healthy, and their work professional.
Now it seems like so many people are makeup artists on social media these days, but putting on decent makeup and looking good doesn’t necessarily make you a good makeup artist.
It takes practice along with some consistent habits to help you excel in your profession.
Makeup artists know all the ins and outs of their field and their knowledge and their experiences will reflect this in their habits.
Don’t judge a makeup artist solely based on their Instagram profile, look for what protocols they follow.
And if you’re curious, then the following are some great habits of actual makeup artists.
You Will Learn About:
1. They Take No Inspiration from Magazine Models
You don’t have to go heavy with the contouring and all the different layers of makeup. Go for something more subtle and simple that brings out your features!
The magazine models sometimes have makeup that’s heavy so that their faces stand out in the photos.
But since you’re not going for a photo shoot anytime soon, then I’d say it’s perfectly fine to go for a lighter look.
Do makeup styles that make you look amazing. 🙂
2. They Go Through the Ingredients
Since makeup has direct contact with the skin, it is extremely important that the ingredients used in it aren’t reactive or damaging to the skin.
Many makeup artists make sure of that before buying any makeup.

3. They Avoid Overusing Foundation
One thing that makeup artists do is put on a thin layer of foundation to let their features stand out.
This is something you might want to do so that your face doesn’t look cakey from too much makeup.
4. They Stay Clean
No one wants unclean hands touching their face.
Breakouts can happen and it also just sounds pretty unappealing.
Here’s what makeup artists do:
- They wash their hands before putting makeup on.
- They keep hand sanitizer and wipes with them at all times in case they have to do makeup on the go.
Pretty smart right?
5. They Rinse Their Brushes
Makeup artists cannot get new makeup brushes for every other client.
And because of this, they soak the brushes in soapy water so that the remains of makeup are washed away.
Clean and unclean brushes make a huge difference in having healthy skin!
6. They Avoid Finger to Bottle Contact
Your hands have germs on them and putting them in makeup makes everything unhygienic.
So for this very reason, makeup artists make use of tools (like sponges and brushes) so that they can avoid any contact with their hands.
7. They Know the Lighting
Lighting plays a huge role in how your makeup will look.
Correct lightening is the key to ending up with a flawless look.
Your features might look different under a different light.
So for instance, makeup for a day event must be done differently than a night event.
So the quick and fast rule is this:
- Do your day makeup in natural lighting.
- For night makeup, a natural white light is best.
