Bridesmaids' Makeup

Are any of you girls asking your BMs to have their makeup professionally done? Or are you treating them to it?

i am leaving the decision to them if they want it done or want to do it themselves, and no, i am not treating them, i simply couldn't afford it. i am treating my mom though.

I am also leaving it up to them --- I would love to offer to have it done for them, but can't squeak out any more $$$!

as one of the bm gifts i'm paying for their hair and makeup if they choose to have their makeup done. i know some want to do it themselves (spel, hehe)!

I would never make them have their make-up done and then tell them to pay for it themselves. I am having my MOH get hers done, but I am paying for it. I am thinking about doing the same for the other girls, but if I don't, then I'll leave the decision to them.

I didn't want to make it part of their gift and couldn't afford to splurge on their hair and make up, so it's voluntary. Since I'm not paying for their hair, I'm not specifying how they should wear their hair either.....

I am leaving it up to each girl. I am having a makeup artist come to my house the day of. I gave each of my BM's her name and number that if they had any questions or if they wanted to schedule a trial, they certainly can.

So far, two of my girls are seriously considering it and of course my mom and I are having it done.

Any girl who wants to have it done will have to pay for it themselves. I will cover all gratuities though.

I don't plan on getting dressed and ready with my BM's so they can make their own arrangements. Whatever they're comfortable with and can afford is fine with me. I know they'll look great either way. It will just be my mom and me having our makeup done together.
