I contacted a bunch today and so far have it narrowed down to:
Oksana Nadine Vasquez Cosmetic Artistry/Make Up by Mya
I know Oksana is supposed to be amazing, right? She's just a bit more expensive (for my bridesmaids) and I feel bad making them pay $100 for make up when they barely wear make up anyway.
I've had 3-4 not so great trials so I'm really trying to pick this next one carefully because I've really had it with trials. Any suggestions would be great! Thanks!!!!

Have you been to Kelly at Glam me up yet? Her studio is above Bridal Suite in Bay Shore. She is great. I had two bad trials before her but once I had my trial with her I booked her immediately

Nadine did my make up for my E-shoot and I only have great things to say about her. Our E shoot was all afternoon until about 9 p.m in Southstreet on a hot July day and my make up lasted long.

Re: Which Make Up Artist?
Can I make a recommendation - Anne DeMarco... she might be a little more than what you want to pay but she's amazing!

I really liked Oksana but ultimately went with Christy Ann. I didn't have trials with the other two but Oksana would be my choice out of the three.

I rec Nadine Vasquez! I used her for my eshoot and she did a fab job. My MU lasted literally ALL day! I hired her for my wedding as well. I looked into Oksana because I love her work but I agree, her pricing for the BM is a bit pricey and didnt want my girls to have to pay $100 if they want to do their MU. Nadine has the best prices I found which is another reason I booked her.
Btw, I have a before/after photo in my wedding stuff album if you'd like to see it.

Thanks, everyone!
@Jassy - your pics are so pretty, thanks!! Nadine does have the best prices that's why I leaned toward her, but I had heard such great things about Oksana so that's why I'm stuck. Maybe I'll give Nadine a shot for my e-shoot that's coming up.
Thanks!!

I looooove Oksana. Even better - my mom loves her too. I had her do a trial because I wanted to make sure that she'd be comfortable with her makeup. As far as bridesmaids pricing... it's completely up to them. They are free to get it done by Oksana, somewhere else, or do it themselves. I didn't want the price to be a factor, because I wanted to have the best person.

I booked Oksana..her reviews are excellent and I know a few people that have used her and were thrilled....booked over a year out to make sure I got her...she only does one wedding a day..a little expensive but worth it for me....I wanna look amazing! !
