I had such a wonderful experience with Alena for our company Christmas party! She did a beautiful simple glam look for both myself and my grandma, and we were beyond happy with the results. Alena was professional, warm, and incredibly patient--she made my grandma feel so comfortable and cared for throughout the process, which meant a lot to me. The makeup was elegant, flattering, and photographed perfectly without feeling heavy or overdone. It lasted the entire night and still looked fresh by the end of the party. Alena truly has an eye for enhancing natural beauty while tailoring the look to each person. I would absolutely recommend her for events of all kinds and would book her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Alena, for making our night extra special! read more

My makeup lasted the whole night without any retouch and I cried a lot that day. Thank you again for your incredible talent and artistry. I will choose you over and over again as my make up artist. You are the best!! read more

Alena did such an amazing job on the makeup for our wedding day. She made both my wife and I look and feel so beautiful, and the final look was exactly what we hoped for. She has an incredible eye for detail and clearly takes pride in her work. One of the things that impressed us most was how well the makeup lasted. From the ceremony to the reception and everything in between, it stayed flawless all day long. We were getting compliments all day about how great our makeup looked, which is a testament to her skill.

Alena was great! I first reached out to her on Yelp. Super quick to respond and very detailed. She arrived early to the appt and communicated her ETA so it was clear when she was arriving. I know I looked amazing after she was finished but what I loved is she made sure I felt amazing as well. I will definitely be hiring her for male services again! read more

10/10 would highly recommend! I had my make up done by Alena and loved it! She used high end luxury products and was always quick to respond with any questions I had. I told Alena I wanted a semi-glam look with a smoky eye (no glitter, matte look), with a winged eyeliner with false lashes, and not too heavy on the bright blush kind of look and she delivered! Her instagram is @alenabeauty_mua if you want to check out her work for inspiration pics! read more

I can't thank Alena enough for her services! I decided to get my makeup done super last minute (day of) for a community event and I loved it! Not only did she reply immediately to help me out, she gave me the option to either come to me or meet at her location. Alena also gave me clear instructions on how to be prepared before arriving and an estimated time frame of how long it would take to complete my makeup. I asked for a soft glam look and not only did she deliver but she went above and beyond. Alena took into account the weather, type of event, lighting, my hair, outfit, and my different skin tones on my chest-neck-face. I can't pick out my favorite part of the completed look because it was all great! From the shimmer in the corner of my eye, the placement of the individual lashes to give a natural lash look, the coral blush, matte finish - it looked amazing and lasted the whole day [930 am - 930pm]. The whole experience was easy/fun/professional/relaxing, and I'd 100% book again. My favorite part of the experience is the confidence she gave me and all of the beauty tips I received. I look forward to booking a makeup class with her next. Rating: 10/10, 5 stars, read more

I commissioned Alena to provide makeup services for me and nine other women for my wedding this month, and I couldn't have been happier with the results. I have had my makeup done by professionals countless times before, but my experience with Alena was truly exceptional. We met about a month prior to the wedding day for a makeup trial. Do not skip this part! This allowed for the two of us to establish a rapport and gives you an opportunity to get really specific with what you're looking for. Alena is very receptive to feedback, which I appreciated, and she remembered all of those details when it came to the morning of my wedding, The day of (and I know most brides probably say this), I felt more beautiful than I think I ever have. My sisters each mentioned the same about themselves, which made me happy that they were also feeling good about themselves. The logistics were also very easy. Because I needed so many women to have both hair and makeup done, Alena was able to provide two additional hair and makeup artists. She coordinated all the details with them directly, allowing me to continue focusing on other aspects of wedding planning. I would recommend Alena for any occasion, and look forward to hiring her again! read more

Alena did my hair and makeup for a special event! She was super responsive, and made recommendations for the makeup and hair style she thought would look best (and was of course happy to make any adjustments I requested). She arrived on time to my hotel, and was super thorough in transforming me for my event! She also gave me lots of tips for my everyday beauty routine along the way which I appreciated! And most importantly, I loved how my hair and makeup turned out! Was a breeze working with Alena, she is super professional and loves what she does! All her makeup products were good quality (mac, chanel, etc), she applied individual eyelashes (more time consuming, but much better look vs strips), and I observed she sanitizes all her brushes and products after each client so it's also super hygenic! read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Alena. I reached out to her last minute, and she was able to squeeze me in early morning on March 30th to do the makeup for me for my babyshower. She created a positive and comforting atmosphere, I met her at her place for our appointment, and everything looked and felt clean. Everything was well organized, and she emphasized the importance of using quality products on her clients. Thank you for giving me the confidence boost I needed, for taking pictures, asking questions, and tailoring the makeup to suit my outfit/event. Your advice and attention to detail are unmatched, and I loved all your tips, suggestions, and recommendations. The next part is weather related, but sadly, it was raining on the day of my babyshower and I was worried the makeup might not last due to the weather and me crying tears of joy a couple times during the shower, (we kept under cover with canopies and rain jackets) but your makeup still remained flawless and lasted all day & night long for me. I would highly recommend Alena to anyone looking for a talented, knowledgeable, kind, and professional makeup artist. Her results were stunning! Thank you for making me look and feel amazing on my special day! read more
