Im having mine done for £80 for me and my bridesmaids (x3) and £20 each if we want a trial, which I will only have a trial so £100 total cost,
Its someone I know through a friend who studied beauty and currently does it on the side to a regular job. It might be worth asking around? see if anyone knows anyone? also look for beautician that travel to do treatments they are often cheaper than actual shops. xx0 -
I think i only paid £20 for make up - another place was charging me £50 and another £45 (Northern Ireland - rural area)
I paid for mum's and my 2 bridesmaids
The other costs I paid on top of this were
Fake Tan - £25
Fake Tan trial -£25
Gel Nails - £20
Hair - £30 and £25 for bridesmaids and think mum's was about £10

I paid £320 for hair & make up for me, adult bridesmaid and kid bridesmaid.
It was a lot, but we looked amazing, not over the top at all but it just meant we didn't run the risk of stressing about it on the morning, which for me was totally worth it.Officially Mrs B as of March 2013

I paid £50 for my make up trial and £60 for the make up on the day. I absolutely do not regret it - I looked the best I have ever looked and I could not have done that myself. I still completely looked like me - just an amazing version of me!
My mum and the bridesmaids did their own and they also looked lovey. However I do notice that in some of the photos they look a bit shiny whereas I never do. We did pay for them to have their hair done professionally though and I am glad of that, because it looked great.0 -
Blimey that is extortionate!! I paid 90 for me and three bridesmaids hair and make up.
Can you not go to a local college or something and see if any beauty students wanted to do it? They would want people for portfolios etc xMarried my wonderful husband on 8/9/12 :j0
