Although you may have high professional standards, you need to protect yourself against the unexpected. Nowadays, people are more likely to take legal proceedings for compensation (sometimes large sums of money for minor damages). Without the correct insurance cover, the future of your business could be at risk. Whilst in training you get your insurance free from BECTU but once thats finished you will need to go to an insurance company and sort it out there so that you can be a freelance make-up artist. the cost of this insurance can be from £55.

Before applying any make-up on your client you need to ensure that she / he has no excess makeup on what so ever, so you would normally cleanse the face and make sure that you have a clean face ready to start with. some people could be allergic to cleansers so you will have to make sure and ask beforehand before you go straight in and apply it on their face, always check the ingredients. a face cleanser i love is the nivea one, it gives your face a smooth finish before starting a make-up look.

keeping your brushes clean inbetween clients is very very important. a make-up artists should never use un clean brushes on clients as it could cause problems such as facial reactions, conjunctivitis and many more. cleaning brushes could take time inbetween clients as you have to wait until their dry, but using the lilumia cleaning brush system they will be clean and dry in no time.

The brushes i use in my kit are the ZOEVA brushes. i use the zoeva face and eye brushes and all are so good. The eye brushes stay firm and don't loose their shape or become 'fluffy'. the hair on the brushes dont malt either which is a very important thing as you don't want hair keep appearing on your clients face whilst applying their makeup.

For powder highlight on my clients, i use the anastasia glow kit. this is good as it has 4 different shades of highlight in one for different skin tones. which is a really good thing for freelancing. as you don't have to carry a load of different highlighters in your kit.

My favorite lipsticks are the ones from MAC. from glosses to matte lip colors. they have a variety of different colors to choose from and last all day on your lips. and if you really wanted your lip color to stay on all day you can use a lip liner before you apply the lip sticks.

Eldora lashes are my favourite. You can choose from a variety different type of lashes, whether they are dramatic or simple. Clients love these lashes and are the lashes ive always used. i would recommend them to anyone, although they are 7 pound for a pair of lashes.

My favourite lip liners are from Mac. So many shades of different colours to buy from, they match their exact lip stick colours too so it is really good. i feel like using a mac lip liner before applying a lipstick is a very good lip primer. they are all really strong colours and always give a good pay off without fail. having a variety colours of lip liners is always needed in freelance makeup.

My favourite face primer that i use is the face primer by Mac. just a small bit of it on your face an it makes your face so smooth and helps really well before applying your foundation. A face primer is very important before applying any makeup onto the face it ensures that ll the excess makeup beforehand is fully off and is ready for some more to be applied. it can easily be applied by your fingers too.

These are highly important to have constantly in your kit being a freelance makeup artist. these are to prevent any cross contamination, anything like conjunctivitis is highly contagious and would be a huge risk in your whole business if something like that occured it would not be good for your business.

An eyeliner i love is the gel liner from Mac. its really good as not only does it give a really good pay off  you can also use it on your waterline instead of using a pencil liner which is also a better pay off as sometimes the pencil liners don't really work and last as long. http://www.maccosmetics.co.uk/

For my kit, i love using the morphe pallets. you can get a variety of different shades in different pallets for cheap costs and a really good pay off. they have a selection of morphe pallets you can buy and are reasonable prices. the colour really pays off well which is important as some shadows ive used previously don't have a good pay off and clients could be unhappy with that if they are looking for a makeup that is going to last all day.

For my eyebrows, i love the Anastasia Beverly hills dip brow gel, i think it works amazing on the brows and can get a really nice finish with it. I don't feel like it dries out like some other brow gels I've tried previously. in my kit i use the Anastasia Beverly Hills brow pro pallet, which is ideal for everyone. it includes every shade of the brow colors they have. it is very good for a freelance makeup artist as you have a color for every persons brow in one pallet.

Contour pallets are useful in my skit for a long lasting makeup. especially using a cream contour pallet for longer lasting and a full coverage makeup look.
i really like the Anastasia Beverly hills cream contour pallet and it sits well on top of the face and when i apply the powder bronze and highlighter on top it sets well.

In my kit i would need around 10 different shades of foundations for all of my clients. The best foundation so far that i think works best on my skin and other peoples skin is the studio fix by MAC. It gives a full coverage and leaves your skin looking flawless. i love this foundation because when you apply highlighter or a bronze / blusher on top of it it sits well on top of the foundation.

To store all of your makeup you are going to need a compatible work box to keep all of your makeup neat and tidy. a makeup box is easy to carry as it is just one box but with many separate compartments inside to keep all of your stuff organised. As a freelance makeup artist it is important to be extra organised with all of your products. Turning up to a job looking unorganized isn't a good impression.

You will need a phone to be a freelance make-up artist as you will need to schedule appointments with clients as most people use keeping in touch via phones and internet. Your phone is also a good source to post all of your portfolio work on social media sites. Instagram being the most popular social media site right now its good to have an account of that on your phone to upload any pictures of your work. you can access anything on your iPhone so you can give people a variety of different ways to get in touch with you whichever is easiest for them. for example, emails.
