Decide on the look you want: Do you have an inspiration photo of the type of makeup you are looking for? You can share this with the Asian makeup artist to see if she is up to the task.

Portfolio of the Asian makeup artist: You can find many Asian makeup artists in Asian wedding directories. Browse through their portfolios on their websites or talk to them personally to see if they have more pictures to share. If the Asian makeup artist has looks that are similar to what you have in mind, hire her, if not, keep your search going till you find the right one. You may also wish to check for things such as skin tone matching, attention to detail and if they include any current bridal makeup trend pictures in their portfolio.

Seek references: Word-of-mouth reference is a good idea and so you can talk to your friends and acquaintances to see if they know an Asian makeup artist they could recommend for your wedding. The other option is to seek advice and reviews from communities and forums in Asian wedding directories.

Venue: Decide on whether you want your bridal make up done at the home or venue or if you are willing to travel to the Asian makeup artist's salon. If you like the convenience of the Asian makeup artist coming to you directly, you should seek out those who are mobile in your area. There are some Asian makeup artists that also provide hairstyling services otherwise you may also have to coordinate with the hair stylist.

Interview the Asian makeup artist personally: It is but natural that you'll have butterflies in your stomach on your wedding day so ensure that the Asian makeup artist is not just good at her work but is professional, experienced, calm and friendly enough to provide you the right look and leave you feeling confident and radiant.

Conduct a trial session: Once your bridal wear is ready, you could arrange a mock session with the Asian makeup artist so that you have a fair idea of how you would look like on your wedding day. Your makeup should highlight your personality and also go well with your bridal wear. Once your trial makeup is complete, be sure you are happy with the results.
