The Siege Math
of your 1st service and of free services each month, paid directly by your client
on other services, capped at $15 a month
Compared to traditional salons that take 50%+ of your earnings, Siege lets you keep what you deserve in Albuquerque.
Mobile makeup artist work in Albuquerque
As a Siege makeup artist in Albuquerque, you meet clients where the day begins: a bridal suite, a hotel room, a kitchen table before a gala. Airbrush, HD, soft matte or glowing dewy skin, you read the lighting, the outfit and the occasion, then build a look that holds up in person and on camera.
Weddings, galas, photo shoots and graduations fill calendars across Central New Mexico, and clients want an artist who arrives ready rather than a rushed counter appointment. Siege puts those bookings directly in your hands, from a single event look to a full bridal morning.
Services you offer
- Bridal and wedding-party makeup
- Event, gala and celebrity-style glam
- Airbrush and HD makeup for photo and video
- Natural, nude, matte or dewy everyday looks
- Editorial and creative makeup, plus permanent makeup where licensed
What you need
Makeup artistry training
You have a trained eye for skin tones, undertones and face shapes, and any credentials Central New Mexico requires for the services you offer, including a separate license for permanent makeup where applicable.
Pro kit for every complexion
Your kit covers a wide range of shades and skin types, with airbrush equipment if you offer it and tools you sanitize between every face.
Timing under pressure
You plan the schedule for a whole bridal party, keep each look on time, and stay calm when the ceremony is an hour away.
Job Description
Tired of giving 50% of your earnings to your salon owner?
Siege is not a beauty salon. It's the new app that gives you your independence. We connect the best professionals in Albuquerque (Barbers, Hairstylists, Estheticians, Lash/Nail Technicians) directly with local clients in the Central New Mexico region.
How does Siege work?
Siege is an ecosystem made up of two apps: Siege (for clients) and Siege Pro (for professionals like you).
Siege (Client App)
Clients in Albuquerque download the Siege app to find and book beauty professionals near them. They can see your profile, services, rates and availability.
Siege Pro (Your App)
You use Siege Pro to manage your profile, set your services and rates, configure your service area, accept or decline requests, and track your earnings.
Be the Boss - You control everything

- Define your service area - work in neighborhoods you know
- Accept or decline requests - no obligation, you choose your clients

With Siege there's no chair rental, no subscription and no sign-up fee. Here, your client pays you directly when the service is done (cash or your usual method).

You're an independent contractor: you set your prices and report your own income.
