I'm pretty clueless when it comes to makeup - thanks to my horrible skin allergies. I mean, I've got the basics under control but that's about it.
So when I found out a mate of mine has a girlfriend who is a mobile makeup artist, and I had a wedding to attend, I thought nothing more than to book Phoebe in.
Phoebe came to my house fully prepped and ready to go. I'd sent her pictures (well, my Pinterest Beauty board actually) of makeup looks I like, and without even so much as hinting at which one I preferred, Phoebe's intuition and knowledge proved amazing as she picked the look I was after from well over 100 pins!
Phoebe explained step by step what she was doing, the colours she was using, the brands, and showed me my reflection at each stage - a complete professional.
As well as doing my makeup, Phoebe helped me out with my hair crisis - I had never used a curling iron on my hair before but had loaned one from a friend to use. Phoebe curled my hair beautifully (might I add, I only asked her to help me out when she arrived!) and I loved it!
I've got another wedding to attend this weekend, and have Phoebe coming along to do my hair and makeup again. I'm also going to book a makeup lesson with her ($40) so I can learn new tips and tricks.

Approximate cost: $70 (1 hour)
