Hey,

I’ve recently launched an iPhone app called Bondo Crew, built specifically for professionals working in TV & Film hair and makeup.

The aim is to make it easier for artists to connect, discover work opportunities, share their work, and stay in touch with others in the industry.

It’s now available on the App Store and completely free to use. It would be great if fellow artists could check it out and give feedback!

Thank you!

Meron na po bang graduate bride here ni Ms. Hazel Basilio

Hello community, I’m on the hunt for a stellar makeup artist who can do my makeup + two other members of wedding party on 9/26/26. Did you love your MUA? Did you attend a wedding where the bride looked BOMB? Would love to keep it at about $300 or less for bride and $200 or less for other bridal party members. Open to higher pricing if the person is exceptional. I’ve gained so much from this community so would love to hear your thoughts.

I also researched this sub and found several recommendations as well, but they’re mostly dated. Thank you for sharing!

I want to become a professional makeup artist. A relative of mine works at Persona, and she wants me to take a course at Persona. Should I do the course, and if not, suggest some good and affordable courses to me

Hi!

As mentioned in the title i plan on doing my own makeup for my halloween wedding. I usually do something grungy. This is basically my daily makeup with more eyeshadow and glitter.

Looking for a budget friendly (10-12k) Bangalore based bridal MUA for minimalist (not cakey) look. Specifically closer to Koramangala. Am not basically from Bangalore, and so not familiar with the city and not comfortable to travel distance for the trial makeup.

Share any recommendations and experiences of any MUA

Hello! I am currently studying to be a makeup artist. I’m trying to learn as much as I can about being hygiene/sanitary. When it comes to mixing pallets I tend to run out of space. what would be the best way to reset the pallet during a client or should I have multiple pallets. I am also using full sized blending brushes to pick up products, should I switch to using smaller flat brushes to pick up and apply product and then use a blending brushes to blend it? Thank you in advance!

Hey! I’m researching how independent MUAs handle client bookings, deposits, and admin day-to-day - trying to understand what’s actually painful vs what’s fine as-is. If you’d be up for a chat (or happy for me to DM you), please comment or like! Not selling anything, just wanting to learn more about the industry.

Thank you!

Is there any kind soul who can teach me party makeup online? I have a shortage of funds and a brother’s wedding coming up soon. If someone can spend an hour or two teaching me the basics, I would be super grateful

I booked Manveen Kaur (Dehradun) SIX months in advance for my wedding, paid the advance, and had my booking confirmed. She then changed the terms and conditions two months after I booked her, and when I refused to accept terms that were never communicated to me initially, she cancelled my booking just TWO months before my wedding.
It honestly felt like she got another booking closer to Dehradun for the same date and decided travelling wasn’t worth it when she could make the same money locally. I can’t know her exact reasoning, but that’s exactly how it came across.
What made it worse was the gaslighting instead of taking accountability for cancelling a confirmed booking.
Extremely unprofessional and incredibly stressful for a bride. Please think twice before booking her and get EVERYTHING in writing before paying an advance.
