Oksana

(reposting from brides helping brides)

Oksana did my makeup for my wedding, as well as the makeup for some family members. Because of time limitations I had most of the bridesmaids, other than my sisters, have their makeup done at the salon where we'd had our hair done. Bad idea!! The salon was SO slow that they didn't even get to one of the bridesmaids, so they rushed through her and told her she didn't need eye makeup (can you imagine??) and yet charged her the same as everyone else. Anyway, when they got back Oksana was finishing me up and she offered to touch up all of their makeup for free. And my maid of honor's makeup was a disaster - Oksana pulled me aside with less than 90 minutes until the ceremony and told me that she wanted MOH to wash her face and she'd just do it all over for her at no cost. She finished her up with plenty of time to spare and it was a huge improvement (think - original makeup left MOH with an orange line marking where her foundation ended!)Needless to say, everyone that Oksana worked on looked great. She was so nice and so calm that day and didn't think twice about helping out to fix up everyone who had not been done by her. Of course we ended up paying her for the extra work, but the fact that she wanted to do it without charge speaks to her professionalism and her overall 'niceness'. I couldn't say enough good things about Oksana. Her prices are very reasonable for what you get. If you're considering using elsewhere to save $25 or so - don't bother - she's worth every penny and more!

Re: Oksana

She is awesome!

She was able to fit my grandma in on my day. I didn't slot her in because my mom said she would n't want it...well low and behold that she wanted it...Oksana just put a little color on her and she loved it! Oksana is AWESOME
