I would recommend professional makeup artist Debbie O’Brien for special occassions like weddings
Debbie works in and around Dublin, Ireland and is a Motives cosmetics specialist
Here’s Debbie’s introduction to herself:
Hi everyone, and thank you for taking the time to stop by and have a look at my website. I feel that to be a really good make up artist you have to have two things, a creative flair with cosmetics and also a really good rapport with people. Since make up artistry was not my first love, it was however something I always said I would get involved in at some point. Having spent many years in the hospitality industry, I built up a fantastic work ethic, key qualities, such as always being punctual, pride in my appearance, attention to detail (slightly OCD at times to be honest) and most importantly I pride myself at being really good with people.The many years of experience from that industry, built the foundations I needed, to do what I really always wanted to do, and that was to become a make up artist. It’s not a job for me, in the sense that I don’t dread going to work!! I spend hours looking at new make up trends, new fashion trends, browsing from make up counter to make up counter, ensuring that I’m not limiting my knowledge in any way.
Its also really important to me that I don’t allow myself to be slotted into any one category when it comes to age brackets and make up styles. I really believe it’s important to teach girls from a very young age, how precious their skin is, and how important it is to look after it properly. So if its a young lady wishing to have her first make up experience, or a lady that wishes to celebrate her 50th wedding anniversary, its my job to make every woman feel fabulous!!!
Here’s some testimonials from happy clients:
TESTIMONIALS
Official Make-Up artist for the Tweeting Goddess – Sam Kelly
Winner of Tweetie inspire award and star of RTE’s Dragons Den and ‘She’s the Business’
Debbie did my make up for the Tweetie awards in October. I was delighted and felt beautiful after she worked her magic!! Debbie is a professional and also puts you at total ease and I put total trust in her. I will be using her as my make up girl from now on! Highly Recommend!!! – Sam Kelly
After being disappointed with my original bridal make-up trial, Debbie(Decadent Beauty) came recommended through a friend. I was quite fussy about what kind of make up I wanted for my big day, Debbie really listened to what I wanted done but she gave a few suggestions too which worked out perfect. Debbie was so professional and insisted on getting my make up just right, she wanted to be 101% sure I was happy with the end result on my make up trial. On the big day, she kept me calm and stayed right up till I was ready to leave my house to touch up any last minute lippy etc. I would recommend Debbie to any Bride that is looking for hassle free make up artist to do their make up on their special day. I would definitely use Debbie again for any future events. Helen
I could not recommend Debbie enough. She graciously agreed to do my makeup on my wedding day. I have never felt so beautiful. The look she created for me was exactly what I wanted (although I actually didn’t tell her what I wanted) & it lasted all day. This photo is taken hours after I had my make up done and it stayed this fresh all day long, bearing in mind I got married in Greece and it was also hot. Honestly, Debbie is such a professional & highly skilled, everyone commented on how amazing my make up was. Susan.

Being successful with Motives®, understanding the Brand and the Business Opportunity in the UK
Motives® Cosmetics was an innovation of Miami and New York based Loren Ridinger the wife of Market America CEO JR Ridinger. She has done an amazing job of branding Motives® Makeup and has been incredibly successful on social media, particularly Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, and Google+. Motives® is just one of the divisions of Market America and country organisations like Market United Kingdom. This multi-billion parent company, which is now 21 years old, has had over 20 years of growth without a down quarter. Market America’s strength and diversity of products gives Motives’ makeup consultants distinct advantages over any other makeup business opportunity. Amongst these advantages are the fact that there are many related beauty, health and wellness products that can also be provided to clients and that Motives is part of the “go-to” shopping destination for cash-back and over 3,000 partner stores, SHOP.com .
Loren has numerous accolades including Entrepreneur of the Year, and is very influential. One of her greatest assets is her ability to foresee the trends, choose the right products and get the right PR for Motives Cosmetics. She partnered with her best friend, LaLa Anthony to create Motives by LaLa for women with darker skin and when the two product lines are combined Motives offers beauty for every skin colour. When everything is taken together Motives is a business opportunity that is fun but with all the ingredients required for a successful business.
The steps that you will need to take are detailed below, however, you don’t need to do this alone because we have created a support organisation and network to help you through each of these steps. More on that HERE .
I personally think it is important to understand that this product line was developed and is being continuously updated and added to by people that are at the forefront of beauty and cosmetics innovation. Loren and LaLa are friends with many celebrities who include the Kardashians and Jay Lo and these people will not wear inferior products and they want value for money. They can afford to buy anything but they will not buy, use or recommend poor quality product.

From each event you want to book your next workshop, so plan on offering a hostess gift and follow the Motives Makeup 101 Event format. When you hold the event, simply read the information about each product and it is very important to demonstrate each product. Remember that people love excitement, so if you are monotone, your event will be monotone. Create excitement and your event will be memorable.
Becoming a Motives Make-up Consultant can provide you will the ability to build a business or utilize the fabulous make-up as an artist.
