Quoting makeup artistry at a fixed price
A makeup quote should price each face by group and list the trial, early-start and travel fees and the retainer needed to hold the date.
The biggest single commitment is "Bridesmaid makeup" at $380.00 (34% of the price): name the exact model, grade or deliverable so there is no argument about what was promised.

The acceptance block
A quote becomes an agreement when the customer accepts it; leave room at the bottom of quote QUO-7144 for:
- The accepted price, $1,134.20, and the quote number
- Customer name (Robin Okafor in the sample), signature and date
- When payment is due: Retainer to book the date, balance due 14 days before the wedding
- The last day the price holds (30 days after issue in this sample)
Makeup Artist pricing tips
- Count faces, not hours, for a bridal party and print the per-face price for each group (bride, bridesmaids, mothers), so a party that grows or shrinks on the day can be re-billed without renegotiating.
- Put both the ready-by time and your arrival time on the invoice; a 5 a.m. call for a large party is why early-start fees exist, and a written time is what makes the fee stick.
- Treat lashes and anything else the client keeps as separate product lines, which lets a bridesmaid skip lashes without anyone arguing over the per-face price.
- For photo, film or editorial bookings, invoice a day or half-day rate with hourly overtime after the agreed wrap time, and add the production's job or PO number so its office can pay you.

Frequently asked questions
How do I write a makeup artist quote?
List exactly what is included (8 lines for wedding-day makeup for a bride and four bridesmaids, with a trial, strip lashes and a 5 a.m. start in the sample), give one fixed price ($1,134.20), the validity period and payment terms, and add a signature block for acceptance.
Is a makeup artist quote binding once accepted?
Generally yes: an accepted quote is a fixed-price offer for the scope it describes, so extra work needs a new quote or a signed variation. Local contract law decides the details.
Should a makeup artist quote ask for a deposit?
Wedding bookings are usually secured with a non-refundable retainer, because a date turned down for one bride cannot be resold.
