1. Who do you recommend?? How was your experience?
Christy Ann Cosmetics, She is super nice and does a wonderful job
2. Prices?
They depend because she has packages or you can do it al la carte but they are very reasonable
3 will they travel to your wedding site?
Yes they will travel to where you are getting married and if you got a certain package they also come back before your reception to touch up your makeup
4. How far in advance should I book this??
ASAP

Re: Makeup.... In need of help

Thank you. I feel as though I need to make a few different trials to decide on my makeup artist

Oksana is amazing and I like that she uses real makeup! Airbrush is like one standard color for everyone and it looked not great on me after a few hours. I did a trial with Christy Ann and Oksana and with Oksana I looked beautiful all day. Christy Ann does nice makeup but it just didn't suit my face at all, especially when I got into sunlight. I looked orange.

Thank you for letting me know, I don't want that to happen to me.

Christy gives you the option of airbrush or regular foundation.

That's so funny you say this because I had the exact OPPOSITE experience! I used Oksana for my bpics (as she came as part of the package) and she used traditional on me. While I loved the pictures and felt she did a great job, I was definitely more 'caked on' than I ever would be and I'm used to wearing make up.

Maybe your skin didn't call for the airbrush? But there are tonsss of airbrush shades to choose from with Christy so I'm not sure why you were under the impression there is only one shade. My mother, my sister and I are all different skin tones (as you can see below) and we all loved the way our make up came out with Christy. Hope this helps

Thank you so much! I loved it too! I chose the package that was me plus 2 people (my mom and my sister) and it worked out perfect. Loveddddd the idea of the pampered package that she offers where an artist comes back for touch ups but we decided against it since November is cooler and I felt comfortable touching myself up.

lol you are too funny! Who cares? I had my trial on a sunday morning when I had no where to go so I just took pics to compare how I looked from the morning up until I washed it off at night and it was amazing!
