Makeup Bookings: MC Professional MUA Review

Hey all, hope you're well. I cannot believe its 4 days until Xmas- AHH! Hopefully you have sorted everything!

So it's that time to think how I want my makeup for Christmas/New Years Eve, it's already stressful sorting out what dress to wear, what accessories to have, which shoes and the last thing you want is to be faffing around with makeup application. So girls I have your back... I met an amazing makeup artist (MUA). Her name is Manisha Champaneri and she has been in the makeup industry for ten years. This review covers her experience, location and my experience.

Experience

Manisha has endless experience in the makeup industry. Here are some of her credentials:

• Fully qualified hair and makeup artist
• 10 year experience in professional bridal hair, makeup and dressing
• Full-time MUA for MAC
• Has certifications in: makeup application, MAC product specialist, focused demonstration and lesson/training
• Qualified in high end bridal hair and makeup, applying HD makeup, Arabic makeup, hair styling (any length) varying from vintage to modern hairstyles and airbrushing makeup
• Prestige brands used such as MAC, Illamasqua, Nars, Anastasia Beverly Hills and more.

Location

Manisha is based in a studio location off Braunstone Gate (appointment based) which is in Leicester. It's situated from a very convenient location from Leiceter train station (10 min walk) and is next to student halls for De Montfort University.

My Experience

I was introduced to Manisha through a lovely individual (Anita) who is setting up her own wedding planning business. Before meeting with Manisha I was asked to think of a look for her to recreate. I really liked the look @j_makeup (Instagram). Manisha is such an expert and only looked at the picture for a few seconds and never referred to the picture again. She recreated exactly what I wanted:

 

Manisha is such a bubbly, kind and professional MUA. She creates exactly what the client wants (from my experience). Also she provides a tailored service, instead of applying products she thinks would work she ensures she talks through the needs with the client e.g. finding out your skin type to ensure the correct products are used.

 

She also provided me with makeup tips and told me which makeup costmetics were used. I highly commend Manisha for this as some MUA's try and hide this sort of information from the client (again from my own experience in the past).

 

Another advantage is that Manisha is extremely hygienic with the makeup she stores. The layout of the studio has been thought through very carefully, for example there aren't any draws that touch the bottom of the floor- if dust gets into the drawers it's difficult to remove. Makeup is stored in it's own pot and Manisha swatches the makeup and cleans brushes thoroughly- this put me at ease as I have sensitive skin and my skin flares up if the makeup application has been unhygienic.  

Loyalty Card Scheme and Discounts

Another advantage of Manisha's business is that a loyalty scheme is provided. When you collect 5 stamps you receive £30 off your 6th makeover and 15% off all hair and makeup an hair services in the studio until March 2016. This doesn't just go for party makeup, discounts for bridal makeup is available too
