From intimidating artists to high prices to the end result, Serra said there are several misconceptions about getting your makeup done professionally. "A common misconception is that you will leave the chair looking like a different person," she told POPSUGAR. But that isn't the case; ultimately, it's up to you to decide what the end result will be. "Blushington works with everyone to customise a look and be the best versions of themselves — from the most natural makeup to the more dramatic." On the more natural front, professional makeup isn't just for super formal events. Meetings, lunches, and nights out can also warrant help from the experts.
Serra also addresses the idea that salons and artists can be intimidating or won't listen to clients' preferences. "Our lounges are welcoming and are an extension of your own living room," she said. "Our artists and desk staff are friendly and want to make you feel comfortable. And our artists will listen to your needs and concerns to customise your look and experience."
