Which makeup brand does the best full face makeup service redeemable against purchases?

[GargoylesofBeelzebub]

Need makeup done for a party but also need a load of new makeup so would make sense to get the brand to do my makeup and redeem the cost against makeup purchases.

I know MAC and Charlotte Tilbury do this. Any other brands? Any reviews of which is best?

I did this in Sephora the other day and was really good. I liked the fact that the person wouldn’t be tied to one brand.

Oh! That does sound better. Thanks!

I had a make-up session with Dior, was great

Also if you sign up with Sephora get the app on your phone. You can pick two brands every six months to get 10% off. And then atm they have a 15% discount in store and online if you’re a Sephora member and remember to prompt them at the checkout. Sadly I forgot that last step so missed the 15% off but I think most of the stuff I got was from the two brands I’d selected so not the end of the world. I waited until the end of the consultation to pick my two brands and then selected the two which I was getting most products from.

she asked me at the start what I was looking for in terms of overall finish and also anything I was struggling with doing (contouring and upper lid liner) and then went and selected products which she thought would be good for me personally and came back with a basket full of stuff to use.

i ended up buying eye liner, contour, blusher, bronzer and some brushes. I told her from the get go I was happy with my foundation and finishing powder and that i wasn’t looking to change those. She was happy for me to take photos of products which i didn’t buy there and then but might get later so i could remember shades, etc. I do wish I’d taken some photos of the contour and bronzer placement before she blended it out.

I would choose the Selfridges Beauty Concierge service in whichever city you prefer. Redeemable against purchases and obviously not limited to just one brand.

I’m seriously looking at this, has anyone ever done it and can give views

I'd like to know too - I think there's a voucher for it in the advent calendar so I'll hopefully be booking one once I have it.
