    Makeup artist invoice FAQ

    Do I charge sales tax on makeup work?

    Most US states tax parts/materials but exempt labor. Use Glo Invoice's per-line tax toggle so each makeup line item is taxed correctly. Check your state — a few (HI, NM, SD, WV) tax services too.

    Do you do airbrush?

    Yes — list as $25–$75 add-on per face. Lasts longer for outdoor weddings.

    How long does each face take?

    45–60 min bridal; 30 min bridesmaid. Quote total time on the invoice.
