Boujee on a budget
Very impressed for only £2.50, i took a load of them home with me.
DISCLAIMER! these are very thin, fragile and flimsy and do rip quite easily. The grip is no where near as good as biodance, and I was getting stressed with them breaking, but for £2.50 you can't go wrong.

Iāve lost count of how many clients tell me
āthis foundation never works on meā
Itās rarely the product.
Itās skin, undertones, texture and prep.
The same makeup wonāt sit the same on everyone.
Thatās colour theory. Not opinion.
This is why investing in the right MUA matters.

2026 season is around the corner, and honestly⦠stage makeup is one of those things people try to DIY once before they realise itās a whole science, not a āquick glamā.
Hereās what a pro mua actually does for you š
1. We match your skin⦠not your bikini.
A lot of backstage artists literally match you to the fabric youāre wearing.
Thatās how people walk on stage looking orange, grey, flat or dusty.
Your skin tone, undertone + your tan depth all matter way more than your bikini colour.
2. We read undertones in seconds.
Itās not āwarm or cool?ā guessing.
Itās knowing how your melanin, redness, heat and tan formula react under harsh stage lights.
Colour theory is not a vibe iitās science.
3. We mix every shade from scratch.
I donāt use one bottle on your whole face.
If itās too warm after tanning, Iāll cool it down with blue/white adjuster.
If your tan pulls green, I correct the skin, not match to the green.
Your face is not one flat colour ā and your makeup shouldnāt be either.
4. We test in three light sources.
āļø Ring light
āļø Natural window light
āļø Shadow side of the face
If your base works in all three, itāll work on stage, backstage AND under the judgesā eyes.
5. Texture > shade. Always.
If the formula isnāt right for your skin + tan, it will separate, oxidise or go patchy.
Thatās why some athletes melt before they even get their number called.
And honestly? The wrong MUA can ruin your whole look.
You end up spending hundreds on random products, stressing, re doing your makeup in the toiletā¦
Iāve lost count of the girls whoāve told me about traumatic backstage experiences.
Thatās not how I roll! thereās a reason I have a strong, loyal client base every single season.
If you want your 2026 stage glam to actually perform under the lights drop me a DM and weāll get your look locked inšš

For makeup artists who feel guilty about raising prices, these are facts, not opinions.
In 2016: ⢠MAC Studio Fix foundation
was around £22
⢠It's now £34-£36
That's roughly a 60% price increase on
ONE product.
L'Oréal True Match: ⢠Was £9.99
Now sits at £15-£16
Again, roughly a 50-60% increase and that's drugstore.
This lines up with UK data showing beauty, makeup and personal care products are now around 20-25% more expensive overall since 2020, with many individual products rising much more than that.
And imports for beauty products are up over 60% compared to 2016.
On top of higher prices, brands are also doing shrinkflation: same compact, same bottle, but less grams or ml inside for the same or higher price.
I've personally got older powders in my kit that are almost double the size of 490 current versions and I paid less for them back then including lips, brows & skin prep
Now here's the important part for artists
If makeup products have increased 50-60% since 2016, but a makeup artist is still charging £40-£50 for a full face (the same price many charged years ago), that artist is effectively taking a pay cut every year.
Even if your price hasn't gone down on paper, your buying power has. You're paying more for
ā¢foundation
⢠concealer
⢠powders
disposables
hygiene
travel
Tools
training
insurance
But if your prices stay frozen, the work becomes less and less sustainable. Raising your prices isn't greed. It's aligning your service with the reality of the industry. Affordable shouldn't mean absorbing rising costs silently.
Professional pricing is what allows artists to:
keep kits clean and up to date
use quality products
work safely
stay in the industry long-term
If brands can raise prices and reduce product size without explanation, makeup artists are allowed to price their labour fairly.
If you're an artist reading this and you've been scared to update your prices this is your sign. You're not "charging more". You're charging properly based on current times š
