Makeup Recommendation

Hey everyone..

I wanna start having makeup trials. I'm someone who never wears anything other than lip gloss and concealer, so I really need someone who will be able to give me 'wedding makeup' that is still natural to some extent. I also want someone who can do airbrush foundation, since I'm getting married in August.

I also want someone who can come to my house, which is in the Port Jeff area, on a guarantee of 3 people.

TIA!!

I would contact Oksana. She has a 3 person minimum and she'll travel to your house. She seems really nice and I've heard great things about her.

Maureen Pedala. My trial is in my albums, I chose to go for a bit more dramatic look with the eyes but she does really amazing work with the natural look makeup, do a search and you'll see. She is kinda $$$ but so worth it IMO plus her trial is free so if you don't like it(which I cant imagine happening) at least it didn't cost you anything.

Oooo - that sounds great. Do you mind me asking the pricing? ANd also, how many girls would I have to guarantee her to get her to come out to the Port Jeff region?

Re: Makeup Recommendation

just had to add....the best thing about Mia is that she spends SOOO much time with u to get the look u want to achieve. She literally spent HOURS with me (yes hours)...we did various changes and she is SO down to earth...she loves when u speak up & tell her if u want something different or changed blah blah blah. there's no attitude or 'well we can't change it now' intimidation.....SHE'S JUST SO GREAT! i have so many awesome things to say about her :) (as do most who've used her!)

Re: Makeup Recommendation

Kacey from Khoulouds is great too. She did a trial for my daughter who doesn't wear much makeup either. It looked beautiful. She booked her on the spot. First trial. She charges $50 for a makeup trial and $125 for day of. She also has someone who does hair, Rosemarie. She did my daughters hair and was excellent as well. It's $50 for hair trial and $125 day of. They're vendors on here. Good luck!!

This is actually a little off.
Its $350 for bride/1st person for hair or makeup
(her sister Claudia does hair)
then $150 per person after that per service
or
$1250 for 8 hours (up to 10 people)
Plus cost of round trip car fare from the city or $200 whichever is less.

Heres the site you can check it out for yourself
