Inside a Professional Makeup Artist Kit | Ibiza Makeup Artist
A professional makeup artist’s kit is never really finished. It’s always evolving. Products get used up, formulas change, new launches come out, and working as a makeup artist in Ibiza means everything has to cope with heat, humidity, long days, and strong natural light.
Because I work across weddings, shoots, and events in Ibiza, my kit is built around products I know will perform consistently. I’m not interested in trends that look good for five minutes but don’t last in real life. Reliability always wins.
When it comes to base makeup, there are a few foundations I always have with me. Armani Luminous Silk is a forever favourite for that soft, natural skin finish. NARS Sheer Glow is great when I want coverage that still looks like skin. Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin gives that healthy, fresh glow that works beautifully in Ibiza light. And for days when longevity really matters, Fenty Pro Filter Soft Matte does exactly what it says without feeling heavy.
Having a range of foundations means I can tailor makeup properly to each face, the conditions, and what the client actually wants, whether that’s soft and natural or more polished and long-wearing.
For eyes and definition, Make Up For Ever pencils are always in my kit. They’re reliable, easy to work with, and they stay put, which is exactly what you need when you’re working long hours or in warm weather.
Setting makeup properly is essential when working as a makeup artist in Ibiza. Anastasia Beverly Hills Translucent Powder is one I rely on constantly. It keeps skin balanced and set without killing the glow, which is especially important when working in daylight, on shoots, or outdoors.
Hair products are just as important as makeup. I use Color Wow throughout my hair kit because their products are designed to perform in humidity, keep hair smooth, and still allow movement. That’s essential for weddings, events, and shoots where hair needs to last but still look effortless.
Maintaining a professional kit also means regular restocks, proper hygiene, and plenty of Sephora trips to replace staples and test new products that work well in Ibiza conditions. It’s one of the less visible parts of being a professional makeup artist, but it’s a huge part of delivering consistent results for every client.
