What to include on a makeup artist invoice
Per-face service list
List each person and service: bride, bridesmaids, mothers, flower girls. Per-face pricing is common, so the count should be easy to verify.
Call time and location
Note the start time and where you set up, plus any early-start fee. A 5 a.m. call is a different job from a noon one.
Trial session
Bill the trial as its own line, or note that it's already been paid. It's where the look gets agreed, and clients like seeing it accounted for.
Travel and on-location fees
Travel beyond your base area, parking and on-site waiting time are real costs. Put them on separate lines so the makeup price itself stays clear.

Terms. Payment is due on receipt and no later than the wedding morning, before services begin. Head counts were confirmed 14 days ahead, and confirmed services are billed even if a guest opts out.
Billing tips for makeup artists.
Lock the head count early
Set a deadline, often a week or two before the date, to confirm the number of faces. Bill to that count even if someone changes their mind on the day.
Charge for touch-up time
If the client wants you to stay through photos or the ceremony, bill it as hourly on-site time. Staying or leaving should be a clear, priced choice.
Use a day rate for shoots
Editorial, film and commercial clients usually book by the day or half day. Add a kit fee for products used, and bill overtime past the agreed wrap time.
