While this makeup mishap may have left the woman feeling disheartened, valuable lessons can be learned from this experience. We spoke to Touched by Claire's owner and makeup artist, Nokulunga Gwala, who shares tips on what to do when seeing a makeup artist.
"When you're going to see a makeup artist, make sure you tell them what you want. I always tell my clients that communication is vital. It is essential to speak up to avoid misunderstandings and make sure the desired outcome is done.
"It is also important as a client to speak out when dissatisfied with the final result. If you provide feedback to me as your makeup artist respectful, we can work on potentially rectifying any issues."
Gwala also says that as a makeup artist, managing client expectations is important. Still, also as a client, you should give your makeup artist some creativity and their interpretation.
"I suggest you allow your make-up artist some room to use their creativity. Makeup is a form of art."
