I used Kim Clarke. She is the counter manager for Prescriptives at Macy's at Walt Whitman. She did an awesome job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm using oksana. go to makeupbyoksana.com
Her price list is on her website-it varies depending on how many people are doing their makeup. Click on contact on her site- fill out an inquiry sheet and she will respond to you by email if she is available. You can set up a trial for $50 then reserve her for $20. She works with Jen the Hair Genie if you need hair too. Good luck! Get cracking with your reservations on an artist :)

Nic, Jacqueline Nicole is excellent. I booked her on the spot. She does airbrushing and regular. I think for regular it cost 120 and 150 for airbrush. She is really good at what she does. She is a vender here, Pretty me.

Is Kim Clarke's contact info on here? I'm a big fan of Prescriptives makeup. Does she use Prescriptives? Not that I'm against using other brands, whatever works best, but I do use a lot of Prescriptives myself. Or maybe I'll visit there after Christmas when things calm down...

I am using Anne DeMarco of Anne DeMarco Costmetics in Woodbury. Her prices for airbrushing at the salon is $125 and for her to come to your home the day of, you need 3 peopl, including yourself and she charges $250 for airbrushing and $100 for traditional. Her price is a bit steep than other makeup artists but she is excellent and also does models. Here is some info about her if you are interested: http://www.rougemakeupstudio.com/index.html

It says that she is located in NYC but she also works out of a salon in Woodbury.

A few of us did All For You Day Spa in Holtsville. You can check out my review, but they did me in 'barely there' makeup because I never wear makeup. In my consults before the big day I said I didn't want anything dramatic and they were awesome!!!!! My hair and makeup cost me $120 TOTAL!!! And they made me feel so at ease on the day of!!!!!!!!!!

I believe she is comparable to the others. I wish I would not have wanted to go the cheaper route. I had a trial with someone else that was recommended by a makeup artist and the trial was horrendous. It's the worst $50 I ever spent.

ETA: I'll be spending either $130 or $145 depending on the amount of girls that want to get their makeup done. Honestly, I don't think that $60 for BM's is expensive. I've paid more.
