Aarts Makeup Artistry

Lorinda 🫶🏼 Mother of the Groom today 🤍
I was honoured when this family friend asked me to do makeup for her on such a huge day in their family. Wishing your son and his bride a beautiful day and even better life together. 💞

👉 I am open for makeup bookings in August & September. 💋

A quick update for some popular dates this Christmas season! 🎄🖤 Thank you to all who have booked and expressed interest. My heart is happy! ✨

✨ Hello Again! ✨

It’s been about a year since I took a step back from doing makeup. It’s been a great year focusing on my family and switching gears towards Real Estate as a Transaction Coordinator & Photographer! 🤩 I’m still very much invested in these roles, but I’m dipping my toes back into the world of beauty. 🖤

That being said, I’d like to officially open my books for December - February bookings; Weekends & Evenings. I will not take on bridal parties at this time, as I can’t give the time and energy those important events deserve. 💞
*Single Bridal appointments are welcome!

I’m nervous, excited, and waiting to hear from my Central Alberta 🇨🇦 Beauties to see if there is still a demand out there!? Let me know! 👇

Radiant & bubbly are 2 words for this bridal party! ✨💕 I’ve known this family for a lifetime as I went to school with the MOH, Nadia, from kindergarten to grade 12. 🥰 It was so great to catch up and see everyone thriving and excited for the day. Thank you for having me 🫶🏼
Also, how great are their towel dresses!? I spy a new trend for 2024!

Carol-Anne 💕 The sweetest freckles with a soft pink lip. 🫶🏼 I’m so grateful for this bridal party as they wished me well and made my last wedding morning an unforgettable one! 💕

I’m closing my books, indefinitely.

Tomorrow, September 23rd, will be my last wedding. If you’ve been one of the many to contact me over the last month, I’ve told you it’s due to health reasons. To clarify, I am completely burnt out.
This year has been insanely busy as I took on a new job as a real estate assistant & 3D photographer. I’ve been absolutely loving it, but keeping both jobs has not been easy. 😓 If that isn’t enough reason, I miss my kids and husband a lot. 💔 They are, and always will be my priority.

If you are a makeup lover, you have noticed the cost of makeup has sky rocketed. 🚀 I am faced with a massive price increase for next year, or count my blessings and end on a high note.

This year has been my best year yet thanks to everyone who always recommends me to their friends! I was completely booked out and SMASHED my goal of being a published artist. I actually lost count of how many magazines published my work! 🤭 It has been such a massive blessing to be a part of so many bride’s wedding mornings in the last 7 years. I’ve made many great friends along the way! 🫶🏼 Thank you for your support in this small town. ❤️

Lastly, be kind to your vendors and give them grace. You have no idea what they are missing out on to be there for you with a smile on their face. What celebrations they are missing because they committed to you 12 months ago. Ask them if they’ve eaten or if they need a break. Tip them. Leave reviews. And continue to interact with them on their socials. The endless hours behind the scenes will all be worth it in the end. 💕

Xo, Sydney. ✌️
