For makeup artists

Business software built for makeup artists.

Artisee is a web-based business management platform for makeup artists. It keeps your client records, bookings, contracts and payment records in one place, so a freelance makeup artist can manage the business side through the web, from a phone or laptop. It works as a makeup artist CRM, a booking calendar with a public booking link, a contract tool with electronic signatures, and a record of what each client has paid.

The problem

The makeup business lives in five places.

A makeup client usually starts as an Instagram conversation. The date goes into a calendar. The allergy note, the look she wants and the trial feedback go into a notes app. The contract, if there is one, is a PDF in a downloads folder. The deposit is a line in a banking app.

None of that is wrong on its own. The problem is that nothing connects them. When the same client books again a year later, the conversation has scrolled away, the note is on an old phone, and last time's balance has to be worked out from memory.

Artisee does not replace the conversation. Clients will still find a makeup artist on Instagram and still message first. What changes is where the business record lives: the client, the booking, the agreement and the payment sit together from the first inquiry onward. Moving bookings out of the DMs is the usual first step.

A calendar stores appointments. A notes app stores fragments. Messages hold conversations. The business record behind the client relationship has no home.

That record is what Artisee keeps: one client, her bookings, her agreements and her payments, on one page.

Clients

A makeup artist CRM: every client, remembered.

Artisee gives makeup artists a client record that holds the whole relationship: contact details, how she found you, notes on skin, allergies and the looks she likes, every appointment she has booked, the agreements she signed and what she has paid. Open a client before the appointment and the history is there, instead of spread across a notes app and a camera roll.

Client profiles with contact details, tags and free-text notes
Beauty profile fields you fill in: skin type, tone, undertone, allergies, sensitivities and preferences
Every booking, contract and invoice linked to the client
Face charts linked to jobs: look, foundation and shade, products, lashes, techniques, notes and feedback
One final-look photo per chart, with account photo quotas shown on the pricing page
Repeat this look copies written details into an eligible new chart; photos are not copied
New inquiries on a simple board (New Inquiry, Reached Out, Interested, Confirmed, Done), so a lead who has not answered stays visible

Why a notes app stops being enough, and what a client record needs to hold, is covered in CRM for Makeup Artists: Why a Notes App Isn't Enough.

Bookings

A calendar, and a booking link that shows your real availability.

Add appointments yourself, or share a public booking link. The link shows only the times you are actually free, worked out from your weekly hours, time off and buffers. A client picks a slot and sends a request; it lands in your Pending requests inbox and you approve, decline or reschedule it. Nothing is confirmed until you say so. Accepting reserves the slot and sends her a reservation email with a calendar invite. You mark it confirmed separately. Scheduled or confirmed appointments with a client email receive a day-before reminder.

Month and day calendar for every appointment, with tasks and follow-ups alongside
Public booking link built from your weekly hours, time off and buffers
Requests wait for your approval; approve, decline or reschedule from one inbox
Reservation email and calendar invite after acceptance; day-before email for scheduled or confirmed appointments
Each booking records the price, the deposit you have taken and the balance still due

The public booking link is part of the Pro plan, and every new account starts with a month of Pro. If bookings still live in your inbox, how to stop taking bookings through Instagram DMs walks through the switch, and the booking apps makeup artists actually use compares the options.

Contracts

Agreements filled from the booking, signed on her phone.

Artisee fills a contract from the booking: the client's name, the service, the date, the price, the deposit and your cancellation terms drop into the clauses. You review it, edit anything, then send a signing link. Your client opens it in her browser, reads it, types her name and draws her signature. The signed PDF is emailed to you, and to her when her profile has an email address, and the signed record stays with the booking. The wording comes from a clause library you can edit, not from a generator, so what she signs is the agreement you approved.

Four agreement types: service agreement, deposit confirmation, trial agreement and model release
Filled from booking details; edit any section before sending
Electronic signature on the client's phone or laptop, no account needed on her side
Signed PDF emailed to both sides and kept with the booking
Export or share the PDF yourself if you would rather handle signing another way

The bridal makeup contract and the makeup trial agreement Artisee generates are also free to download as PDFs. What to include in a makeup artist contract explains each clause, and how to send a client contract covers the timing.

Payments

Know what is paid, pending and overdue.

Every booking carries its price, the deposit you have received and the balance still due. Invoices record what a client owes and whether it has been paid; overdue is worked out from the due date. From a booking you can produce a branded invoice PDF with your business details and share it. Artisee does not process client payments. Money moves the way it already does for you, by e-transfer, cash or card, and Artisee is where you record it.

Deposit and balance recorded on every booking
Invoices with line items, tax, due date and a paid or pending status
Paid, pending and overdue totals on one page
Branded invoice PDF from your business details
No payment processing: Artisee records payments, it does not collect them

Before a price goes on a booking, the makeup pricing calculator works out your floor and your base rate from your own hours and costs. The weekly routine behind this is in how to track payments as a freelance makeup artist. Also inside Artisee: revenue and booking analytics, a kit inventory with a barcode scanner, tasks and follow-ups. See every feature.

In practice

One bridal inquiry, start to finish.

A realistic sequence for a freelance makeup artist using Artisee. Each step is something the product does today; the trial and the wedding day are two bookings on the same client record, not a linked workflow.

Inquiry
A bride messages on Instagram about a September wedding. You add her as a client with the date, the venue and a note: sensitive skin, soft glam. She sits at New Inquiry on the board until you reach out.
Booking request
You send her your booking link for the trial, or add it yourself. If she books through the link, the request lands in Pending requests; you approve it and she gets a reservation email with a calendar invite; you confirm the appointment separately.
Agreement
From the wedding-day booking you generate the service agreement. Her name, the date, the price, your deposit and cancellation terms are already in it. She signs on her phone; the signed PDF is emailed to you both.
Payment record
You record the deposit she e-transfers and the balance due updates on the booking. The day before the trial she gets the automatic reminder email.
Client history
On the wedding morning her record shows the trial notes, the signed agreement and what is still owed. When her sister messages next year, the whole history is one search away.

Why one home

Each tool holds one piece.

None of these tools are bad. Each was built to hold one part of a client relationship, and none of them can see the others.

Where it lives today	What it holds	What it cannot tell you
Instagram or WhatsApp	The conversation	What she paid, or what she signed
Calendar	The date and time	Her notes, your terms, the balance due
Notes app	Fragments: allergies, looks, reminders to yourself	Which booking a note belongs to
PDF or paper contract	The terms, once	Who signed which version, and when
Banking app	The money	Which client and which booking it was for
Artisee	The client, her bookings, her agreements and her payment record, together	It does not replace your client conversations or process client payments

Common questions

What makeup artists ask before they start.

What is a makeup artist CRM?

A CRM, or client relationship manager, is the place a makeup artist keeps every client's details, notes, booking history and payments together. In Artisee the client record is linked to that client's bookings, contracts and invoices, so the history is complete without copying anything between apps.

Is Artisee made for freelance makeup artists?

Yes. Artisee is built for artists who run their own business: freelance and bridal makeup artists first, and other solo beauty professionals such as hair, lash, brow and nail artists. It is priced for one person, with a free plan and a Pro plan; team seats are included on Pro for studios that grow.

Can I manage makeup clients and bookings in Artisee?

Yes. Clients, bookings, a calendar and a public booking link are core to the product. Booking requests from the link wait for your approval, and each booking records the service, date, deposit and balance.

Can makeup artists send contracts for electronic signature with Artisee?

Yes. Artisee fills an agreement from the booking details, you review it, and your client signs it electronically from a link on her phone or laptop. The signed PDF is emailed to both of you and stays with the booking.

Does Artisee process client payments?

No. Artisee records and tracks payments, deposits, balances and invoice status. It does not collect or process money from your clients.

Is Artisee a mobile app?

Artisee is a web application that works through the browser and is designed for phones and laptops. It is not currently a native iOS or Android app, so there is nothing to download from an app store.
