Makeup Artist Kit Essentials
My makeup artist kit essentials! From makeup and skincare products, to organization items and disposables.
Makeup
Makeup items that are in my professional kit at all times!
My favourite setting spray!
These lashes have been a favorite from the first time I tried them. They are SO lightweight, my clients are always amazed at how comfortable they feel.
Similar to the #421 naked lashes, these just have a bit more of a cat-eye shape to them!
One of my favourite brands of lip liners, especially the nudes! These are always stocked in my kit. They're waterproof, so they make a great base underneath any lipstick or lip gloss.
I don't think I'll ever stop using this foundation on clients. It's the perfect foundation for a natural, radiant, skin-like finish.
Skincare/Skin Prep
Products I use to prep my clients' skin before makeup application
This serum works with all skin types and wears really well under makeup, as it's super light-weight!
Organization
Things that help me keep my kit tidy and organized.
Of course the kit essentials list needs to include the actual kit itself!
A part of my soul dies everytime I depot a lipstick lol but these palettes just make my job so much easier, as all my lipsticks are in one place and I can see all of them all at once.
Carrying a bunch of different eyeshadow palettes and individual blushes, bronzers, etc. takes up soo much room, so I've recently starting popping the pans out of their original packaging and organizing them into these palettes! Game changer, it's sav...
Disposables
Applicators, sponges, and more!
I use these little bags to make small touch-up kits for my clients. They're the perfect size and you can't beat the price. I'm always stocked up on these!
Disposable mascara wands are a non-negotiable in a makeup artist's kit! (if an artist ever tries to apply mascara on you with the actual product applicator, RUN).
There are tons of option for sponges on Shein!
I like to keep powder puffs in my kit at all times, and Shein has the best bulk prices I've been able to find. To eliminate waste, I always give my client the powder puffs I've used on them so they can use it for touchups!
Miscellaneous
I love to keep a little light in my kit as I always take photos of my clients.
I use this little label maker to label all my de-potted/condensed products.
