Makeup Artist Invoice Template

Bill a client for an event booking with makeup services priced per person, add-ons, travel, an early-start fee and the deposit already received, then download it as an editable Word or Excel file or a blank PDF to print

No credit card required.

Quick answer:This makeup artist invoice is for an event booking, such as a wedding party. Makeup services are priced per person, one line per service type, with add-ons such as false lashes; travel and an early-start fee have their own section. A sales tax line with its own rate cell, the total, a "Less: deposit received" credit and the amount due follow, and booking notes record the deposit date and the trial. It comes as a Word (.docx) or Excel (.xlsx) file with sample details and as a blank PDF to print. The page explains per-person pricing, travel and early-start fees, deposits, balance due dates and cancellations as business policy, and uses California's cosmetology statutes as an example of licensing rules, telling readers elsewhere to check the rules where they work.

Makeup artist booking invoice

An invoice for an event booking: the event details, makeup services priced per person, add-ons, travel, an early-start fee, a tax rate cell, the deposit received and the amount due.

A request for payment — shows the amount due

What goes on a makeup artist invoice

An invoice for an event booking shows who you made up, what each service cost, what travel and fees were added and what's left to pay after the deposit. The template has these parts:

  • Makeup artist. Your business name, address and phone or email.
  • Invoice details. The invoice number, invoice date, payment terms, due date and a booking number.
  • Bill to (client). The client's name, address and phone or email.
  • Event. The event, event date, location, start time and number of people.
  • Makeup services. One line per service: item, details, qty, unit, rate and amount, with a services subtotal.
  • Travel and fees. Travel and any fees, such as an early-start fee, with their own subtotal.
  • Totals. The subtotal, "Sales tax, if applicable", the total, "Less: deposit received" and the amount due.
  • How to pay and booking notes. The methods you accept, placeholders for your account details, a payment reference, and notes such as when the deposit was received.

The sample bills a wedding party of 7 on Nov 28, 2026, with a 6:30 a.m. start:

  • Makeup services: bridal makeup including the trial (275.00), 4 bridesmaids and 2 family members at 95.00 a person, and 5 sets of false lashes at 15.00 as an add-on, for 920.00.
  • Travel and fees: 36 miles round trip at 0.70 a mile (25.20) and an early-start fee of 50.00 for a start before 7:00 a.m., for 75.20.

The subtotal and total are 995.20, with sales tax at 0% in the sample. The 300.00 deposit received on Aug 12 leaves 695.20 due on the event date. The rates are placeholders, not market rates.

Pricing per person

Price each type of service per person, so the client can see how the party size sets the bill:

  • One line per service type, with the number of people in Qty and "person" as the unit. The sample bills 4 bridesmaids as one line, 4 × 95.00, rather than four lines.
  • Name who it's for in the Details column ("Bride", "4 bridesmaids", "Mothers of the couple"), so the client can check the count.
  • Add-ons as their own lines, such as false lashes, with their own unit ("set").
  • A trial, if your bridal price includes it, can be named in the service line, as in "Bridal makeup, including the trial". If you charge for it separately, give it its own line. The sample's booking notes record when the trial took place.

If the party size changes on the day, change the quantity, so the invoice matches who you actually made up.

Travel and early-start fees

Fees that depend on where and when you work go in "Travel and fees", apart from the services:

  • Travel to an on-location booking, billed the way your booking terms say: by the mile, as in the sample, or as a flat fee for a travel zone.
  • An early-start fee, if your terms charge one. Say what triggers it, as the sample does: "Start before 7:00 a.m."
  • Other fees your terms include, such as waiting time or parking, as further lines.

The sample's tax line applies to the whole subtotal, travel and fees included. Whether makeup services, travel or fees are taxable depends on where you work, so check with your state's tax agency.

Deposits, the balance and cancellations

  • The deposit. Request it when the client books, with a deposit invoice, and show it on this invoice on the "Less: deposit received" line. The sample's note records it: "Deposit of 300.00 received on Aug 12, 2026, to hold the date."
  • When the balance is due. The sample's terms are "Due on the event date". You might prefer the balance before the event. Whatever you choose, put it in your booking terms and print it on the invoice.
  • Cancellations and changes. Whether the deposit is refundable, what a late cancellation costs and how you handle a smaller party are business policies. Write them in your booking terms, which the client agrees to when they book. If you bill a cancellation, put the fee on its own line and refer to the term it comes from.

Licensing

Whether you need a license to do makeup for pay depends on where you work. California is one example:

  • The state's definition of cosmetology includes "Beautifying the face, neck, arms, or upper part of the human body, by use of cosmetic preparations, antiseptics, tonics, lotions, or creams" and "applying eyelashes to any person" (California Business and Professions Code section 7316).
  • Section 7317 makes it unlawful to engage in cosmetology "for compensation without a valid, unexpired license issued by the board", except as the article provides (section 7317).
  • Section 7319 lists exemptions, including people employed to render cosmetology services "in the course of and incidental to the business of employers engaged in the theatrical, radio, television or motion picture production industry" (section 7319).

Elsewhere, check the rules where you work with the board or agency that licenses cosmetology. If you hold a license, you can add the number under your business details; the template has no field for it.

Filling in the figures

In the Excel file, each line amount is qty × rate. The two section subtotals, the subtotal, the sales tax line, the total and the amount due are formulas, and the sales tax rate sits in its own cell next to its line. The tax line applies to the whole subtotal. The deposit is a typed amount, and the amount due is the total minus the deposit. Each section has one blank row at the end.

  • No sales tax or no deposit: leave the tax rate at 0%, or set "Less: deposit received" to 0.00. Don't delete either row, because the totals refer to them.
  • More lines than fit: insert a row above the blank row in that section and copy the amount formula into it. The section subtotal and the subtotal should grow to include the new row; check that they did.

In the Word file, the amounts are typed, not calculated, so retype the line amounts and totals whenever you change a figure. The PDF is a blank form to fill in by hand, with a blank for the sales tax rate.

Invoice or receipt?

  • When the client books: send a deposit invoice for the deposit.
  • For the balance: send an invoice like this one, with the deposit deducted and the due date shown.
  • After the client pays: send a receipt if they want one. The payment receipt template confirms payment of a specific invoice.
