Makeup artists are essential to glam teams for everything from movie sets to weddings. Show appreciation to the professional in your life with these gift ideas for makeup artists! Our suggestions are practical, fun, and perfect for all artists.
Rolling Makeup Case
Depending on the artist’s specialty, they may carry a lot of cosmetic products. Instead of shoulder bags or large totes, consider getting the makeup artist in your life a rolling makeup case. They support comfortable travel and organization thanks to their detachable compartments. The versatile storage option is a fantastic gift for traveling artists!
Beauty Station Organizer
In the ultimate guide to makeup accessories, beauty station organizers are the “holy grail” of items because they support organization. The stations have compartments for things like lipstick and brush holders and can reduce tabletop clutter. A makeup organizer is perfect for both personal cosmetics and makeup studios.
Personalized Apron
Aprons protect makeup artists from fallen cosmetics and stains. Although solid-color aprons are popular, you can unleash creativity with a personalized apron. Fun messages like “Beauty is my business” or “Makeup Wiz” are great options. However, you can also customize aprons with the artist’s name or picture. Either way, the gift is unique to them!
Hand Mixing Palette
A hand mixing palette is one of the best gifts for makeup artists because it prevents hand staining. Sometimes, makeup artists mix cosmetics to achieve precise shades or activate formulas. The back of the hand is a wide canvas for mixtures, but makeup can stain and dry skin. Luckily, a hand mixing palette can remove that issue. The makeup artist in your life will appreciate the practical gift!
Electric Brush Cleaner
Electric brush cleaners can clean and dry cosmetic brushes within seconds! They also have adjustable designs that fit most brushes, making them a practical gadget. In the past, makeup artists would hand wash brushes or soak them in water and soap. Both techniques are time-consuming and not ideal for busy artists. Now, makeup artists can cleanse brushes between clients and easily remove residue/ grime.
Practice Mannequin Face
Perfecting makeup looks isn’t easy. As trends change, makeup artists must adapt to cosmetic demands and follow modern styles. Help a makeup artist practice with a mannequin face. Acrylic mannequin heads are inexpensive and simple to clean, but silicone heads offer a more realistic experience.
