Airbrushing has been around for a very long time. The difference is all in the application as well as the product formulations that are used. At Makeup HQ we pride ourselves in our airbrushing techniques  and Sara has taught many makeup artists in the industry the art to airbrushing.

Airbrushing uses a specially deisgned airbrush gun and air compressor which sprays the face with a lightweight mist. The application is flawless, longerlasting and mimics flawless skin. The technology of the products instantly smooths lines and softens imperfections, along with lightweight, long-lasting, buildable coverage, skin takes on a soft focus effect- natural youthful, beaming. This is why we choose TEMPTU & ELEMENTWO  as our products of choice and have been for years. 

 

Sara and her team have been servicing the bridal industry for over 20years. 

Sara started her career in 2001, specialising in fashion, bridal, advertising and also tv makeup. The team varry from 3 years to 8years.

Sara was the make up artist on the morning of our wedding and I cannot put into words how happy we ALL were with the quality of her work, patience, calm energy and organisation. I've worked with so many make up artists in the past and Sara is a clear standout (and a perfectionist!!). She made sure everybody was happy, took her time on the morning and remained for touch ups up until we left. I could not recommend her enough after doing my make up for the bridal shower, hens and wedding. Thank you again Sara for your amazing work <3

Aww, Thank you so much for choosing me Michelle, it was truly an honour to do your makeup as a bride. You looked amazing and wishing you all the best for the future. xx Sara

Sara provided exceptional hair and makeup for my wedding. Sara even travelled to Tasmania to provide this service. Sara works with you on what look you’re after and uses her advanced knowledge to ensure it will suit your individual features. Sara can make recommendations of what suits your face and every time makes you feel beautiful in your own skin. Even Sara’s trials are to the high quality, as they are on the actual wedding day. Sara is who you choose, to know whatever is asked of her, she can pull it off and to a very high standard. She and her team are amazingly talented. I can not recommend her highly enough. She is the best!!

Sara did my wedding back in September 2022 and her work and her team where outstanding. She kept us all relaxed and made the morning fun and enjoyable. I chose the airbrush makeup which looked and felt beautiful on my skin and I looked natural but a little more glam. The makeup lasted all day and I would highly recommend booking her for your wedding day! You will not be disappointed.

Sara was absolutely amazing. She did all our hair and makeup with air brushing and we all felt absolutely amazing. She was cool, calm and collected and knew what she was doing. Got 3x B/Maids and myself ready by 11:30am Would highly recommend!

What an amazing morning I had with Sara and Sarah! From the get go they were easy going, friendly and extremely professional. They set a calm, fun and friendly tone for getting ready and listened to what I and my bridesmaids wanted for our looks, and they more than delivered! We all felt beautiful and had the absolute best time! I could not recommend Sara and the ladies at Makeup HQ more!

Emergency backup plans for makeup artist?

Hi there. Wondering about emergency backup plans in the event my makeup artist is sick or is in an emergency on our wedding day. What contingency plans are in place? Do I need to pack my own makeup just in case?

Makeup HQ

With back up plans this is a great idea. The good thing with booking with us at MakeupHQ we have a team of artists that work for us, so their will always be someone available to help out in case of an emergency. 

Do makeup artists generally travel?

Hi, we're considering a semi-rural wedding, but not wanting to limit our suppliers to just the town. How far do makeup artists generally travel without charging extra, and at what point would they charge a travel fee? Thank you!

Makeup HQ

Most artists do travel out for weddings, and some do have a minimum call out fee or minimum persons before they come out to you.  Travel fees, parking fees if getting ready at hotel/motel are also charged.
