For makeup artists

    Book more clients as a makeup artist

    Bridal parties hire on proof and referrals. Keep both on a profile with your name on it, ready to send the moment someone asks.

    The reviews you earn go to the agency

    Makeup work is booked months ahead on the strength of someone else's wedding. The recommendation arrives by word of mouth, but the searchable proof lives in a counter's listing, an agency page or a photographer's caption.

    Without a profile of your own, every enquiry starts with you assembling screenshots to prove you are good.

    The gap: a business rating answers “is this place any good?”. It never answers “is this makeup artist any good?” — which is the only question your next client is actually asking.

    What changes when the reputation is yours

    • Verified reviews from brides and event clients under your handle
    • One link that answers every 'do you have reviews?' enquiry
    • Referrals become a shareable profile instead of a phone number
    • Portfolio and reviews in the same place

    How it works

    1. Claim your @handle

      One free profile in your name, marked as a makeup artist, with your services and area.

    2. Ask after each appointment

      Share one link or QR code while the client is still happy. It takes them under a minute.

    3. Share the proof

      Send your profile to referrals, print the QR, and let verified reviews do the convincing.

    What a strong makeup artist profile shows

    • Your travel radius and typical package range
    • An enquiry link that works from any DM

    What clients say when the review has your name on it

    Example reviews showing how clients talk about a makeup artist once the feedback lives on the makeup artist's profile instead of the agency's page.

    • I followed my makeup artist here from the agency — the profile made it easy to check the work before I booked.

    • Finally a way to review the makeup artist and not just the front desk. The photos on the profile are exactly what I got.

      First appointment

    • Booked from a QR code at the end of my appointment. Two taps, review left, and I could see every past client's feedback first.

      Typical time for a client to leave a review

    • 100%

      Reviews that stay with the makeup artist, not the agency

    Example reviews shown for illustration. Real reviews on Kleos are verified and attributed to the client who left them.

    Does this compete with Google reviews?

    No, and it should not. Google reviews belong to the business and help it get found — keep asking for them. Kleos records the part Google cannot: which makeup artist did the work. The same client can review the agency on Google and review you on Kleos in the same minute.

    If you want the Google side sharper too, our how to ask for a google review: 18 scripts covers the ask, the timing and the follow-up rules.
