BEHIND THE BRUSH

You Glow Girl by Tonya

My name is Tonya Robinson, and I'm an Advanced Professional Freelance Makeup Artist. I attended Makeup Artist Studio Inc. in September of 2017 and was awarded a certification in the study of Advanced Professional Makeup in the media of film, video, print, bridal & spray tan application. Makeup is truly an art form, and it took a lot of practice and model calls before I decided to take the leap, and start my own business; You Glow Girl by Tonya, as well as Freelancing on the side. Since then, I have been transforming my clients in the greater Jacksonville area into absolutely stunning art. All of my work is based on the art of making you look radiant. I am passionate about what I do, and love to spread my love for makeup and cosmetics to all of my clients. I am confident you will be absolutely satisfied with my work, making me your new go-to Artist.

FAQs

I loved my experience. I want to book again! Does You Glow Girl by Tonya offer a discounted rate for returning clients?

Loyal clients are the best clients! The answer is yes! Returning clients can enjoy $5.00 off their total balance, when re-booking a future appointment within the same year.

How is You Glow Girl by Tonya different from other makeup artists?

Unlike many other claimed Makeup Artists' around the area, I am in fact certified in Advanced Professional Makeup Artistry. I attended school and specifically learned all about makeup. I learned how to properly apply makeup in a timely manor at a skill level. I learned how to distinguish between different skin types. I learned face charts for each facial shaped and how to properly highlight/contour areas to enhance the natural beauty per each individual client. Proper Hygiene is a huge factor you must consider when hiring a Makeup Artist. I clean and disinfect my area/brushes/products between clients with specific products only available to certified Makeup Artists’. In addition, the school I attended also taught me training in areas such as:
-Makeup supplies and tools
-Steps of applying makeup
-Fundamentals of makeup
-Airbrushing
-Tattoo cover-up
-Spray tan application
-Corrective makeup
-Makeup Artist business and marketing
Unlike, a regular 'Makeup Artist', since I am an advanced Makeup Artist, I learned cutting-edge techniques in speciality areas, allowing me to offer services such as bridal makeup.
With my experience, I know how to schedule without conflict, and communicate to all of my clients professionally. I’m extremely knowledgeable with the products I use, and I am always educating myself on the latest trends and products that come out and with a high clientele,I’m always practicing the most up-to-date techniques. Another factor to consider, I do not work at a salon, so I make my own hours, and often work much earlier/later than local salons. I’m extremely flexible and always accommodating to my clients.

Which payment methods does You Glow Girl by Tonya accept?

I send an invoice via email through an app called Square Cash. 20% is due in order to book the appointment. The remaining balance will be due in the form of cash, the day of the services.

Why does You Glow Girl by Tonya require a deposit to book?

I require a 20% non-refundable booking deposit in order to make any appointment. This ensures your time slot&date. The reason I require this, is because a lot of clients want to book an appointment last minute, I’ll take my time to set up for the client, and have a full, in depth, discussion about the look I will be creating for them, and then they will never show up, and stop communicating with me. This is extremely frustrating and the reason why I require a deposit so I know my client is a serious inquiry.

Does You Glow Girl by Tonya have credentials?

YES! I obtained a certification through Makeup  Artist Studio in December 2017, in which I was awarded for the study of Advanced Professional Makeup Artistry in the media of film, video, print, bridal, airbrush&spray tan applications.

Advanced Professional Wedding Makeup Services

THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE

Giving bridal parties gorgeous makeovers on the day of the wedding is the easy part for me. Being an expert wedding Makeup Artist, it takes more than a few tricks of the trade up your sleeve. Which is why I have a skillful hand and an impeccable eye with a solid game plan. It is the most rewarding feeling knowing I am the one that makes the bride look & feel beautiful on one of the most important days of her life. I am committed to making my brides stand out and their bridal party look phenomenal on such a special day. Since I am a traveling Artist, I provide much more flexible hours than a typical salon would be able to manage. I offer on-site services, eliminating the stress and hassle of having to go to a salon on such a big day. It is far more convenient to provide services to all members of the wedding party, including moms, bridesmaids, and flower girls, when I can travel to where the wedding is taking place. On-site makeup artistry takes the hassle out of salon appointments and allows me to be on-site for last-minute touchups. On the rare occasion, some brides even offer hiring me for the entire day so I can refresh their makeup after the ceremony, during the photograph sessions, and before the reception. I come prepared with my own makeup suitcase&bags, table, chair, and studio ring light, to ensure the best possible experience I can provide. Check out my wedding makeup services.
