Makeup artist rate calculator

Two bookings with the same fee can leave you with very different money. Enter one real booking to see what it leaves you per hour, and the fee you need for the hourly rate you want.

From the first message to the last invoice: messages, trial, travel, the job itself and admin.
Depends on your country and business form. Ask your accountant for your number.

How to use it

  • Take one real booking you did, not an ideal one, and fill in what it actually cost you.
  • Count every hour: replying to the inquiry, the trial, travel, the job, cleaning your kit and invoicing.
  • Do it for each type of work you take, such as a local appointment, a bridal morning and a destination wedding. The difference is usually bigger than people expect.
