Your makeup artist website, built by you — in one prompt
Your whole business runs through Instagram DMs: brides ask about bridal trials, someone wants event pricing, another ghosts after you spend an hour quoting. Your portfolio is a grid a new client has to scroll for ten minutes, you have no way to take a deposit, and double-bookings have burned you. You've looked at booking apps that take a cut and template sites you'd have to learn. You want your own makeup artist website — portfolio, clear packages, and booking that takes a deposit — built today, without a developer.
The new way
You describe your business in plain English and an AI builds the whole site — gallery, packages, a booking flow that collects a deposit. Paste one prompt, get a working site, refine by asking. Here's a prompt written for a makeup artist.
Step 1 — Pick your platform
All three have a real free tier; use our links:
- Base44 — start here: portfolio, packages and deposit booking by prompt.
- Lovable — most design-forward; ideal when your visuals are the pitch.
- v0 by Vercel — cleanest UI if you like to tweak.
The master prompt below works on all three. Not sure? Take the 60-second quiz →

Start free — see your makeup website before paying anything
Build and preview free (Base44 25 credits/month; Lovable 5 daily; v0 limited daily) — enough to see your real portfolio and booking. Paste, look, decide. Your own domain needs a paid plan ($16–25/month). No credit card to start.
Two honest warnings
- Take a deposit or keep getting ghosted. The single biggest upgrade over DMs is a booking that collects a deposit — build that first.
- Use your own photos only. Never use AI-generated "results" or someone else's work in your portfolio — clients book the face they see.
