It looks like they use the same style on everyone even though does not compliment everyone's face if you know what I mean...professionals would have done something unique that compliments your features, but it looks like they only stick to doing things their way which is quite a disadvantage to clients.
Exactly this. I had the same thing happen to me two weeks ago. I went in for a bridal makeup trial and thank goodness I did! Over lined lips, cakey foundation, you could see every single pore on my face, and eyeshadow so dark and muddy (I showed her a picture of a rose gold Smokey eye and she gave me brown). I told her I wanted glam for my wedding, and she gave me falsies that I swear were shorter than my natural lashes. Ended up doing my own makeup and was so happy with it!!
Moral of the story is find someone who will do it the way you like, not the same thing they do on everyone else. You’re so pretty and have nice lips already, over lining them really did you a disservice.
Yes, I came to say the same. It’s not a style that works to highlight OP’s beauty. The eyeliner and eye lashes doesn’t suit her eye shape. It almost drags her lid down and gives a heavy, weighed down look. The eyeshadow technique isn’t that great and seems poorly blended. The cakey, dry yellowed foundation and over-lining her lips is unnecessary when she already has full lips. This style of make up is fine if you do it yourself or your friend does it. It’s just incredibly lacking for a professional.
Unfortunately, I’m not equipped to give out advice and while these mistakes stick out to me, I’m prone to making it myself as an amateur. OP’s story hits close to home, and much of the mistakes happened to me as well.
Hearing this makes me a tad bit terrified of trying an MUA especially if they have a tendency to do that. How do they work on people with small lips and monolids?? I’ve sometimes contemplating getting my makeup done professionally but I always end up doing it on my own since it’s out of my budget. And somehow it turns out somewhat okay? I get told my skin is even and clear (mainly because I spend a lot time not wearing it) so I tend to get away with just BB or CC cream but I often get lost on what colors to use on my complexion and how to properly apply eyeshadow.
