She did makeup for my wedding on 10/19/19 for myself, a few of my bridesmaids and my mom. I can't imagine my day without her. She's more than a makeup artist - from her calming vibes in the morning as she did our makeup to offering practical advice on skincare moving forward. In fact, Emily gave me invaluable advice during my trial and recommended a skin care clinic for facials leading up to the big day. Beyond being a professional, she's a genuinely good person to be around. I would recommend her for anyone's wedding makeup (if you can book her - she fills up fast!)

Emily is the BEST!! She did wedding makeup for me, my mom, the mother of the groom, and my…read morebridesmaids, and I couldn't recommend her more wholeheartedly. From the moment I met her at my trial to the day of my wedding, she made me feel so comfortable. At my trial, she took the time to listen completely to what I envisioned for my look - an effortlessly flawless, glowing-from-within version of my natural self - and made the magic happen. She made me feel extra confident and beautiful (without being overdone) on one of the most important days of my life, and for that I can't thank her enough!! My bridesmaids and both mothers also looked gorgeous. I 10000% recommend her to every bride!

It was great that she tailored each of our looks based on our preferences. I was very pleased by what a great job she did on my own make up. She gave me lush lashes without them looking fake. I received many compliments on my make up that night and from the pictures. I can't wait for the next occasion for Lanette to glamorize me again. Whether you are a bride or someone looking for makeup for a special event, Lanette is your girl!

She was so helpful during all of the planning; especially providing me timelines in advance since my bridal party is so big and I wanted to plan the morning out months in advance. She has such a kind way about her and always made me feel like I was in good hands. Due to the continuing coronavirus and county shutdowns, we've had to move our wedding date and unfortunately Lanette isn't available. She immediately offered to refer artists in her network and sent an email introduction for me. She goes above and beyond, and while I'm so sad to not have her be part of my special day, I hope to have the opportunity to work with her for a different event in the future.

Got the news my niece was getting married, and I wanted to get her something but didn't know what…read more A friend recommended to get a gift certificate for hair and makeup for the wedding. Since I have never purchased something like this before, I had questions. Their customer service team was responsive and helpful to answer my questions. I love on their website you can see the artists you could potentially work with. My niece was over the moon that I got her this as a gift. Recently she had her hair and makeup trial done at the studio. She said, "I'm so pretty!" with a glimmer in her eye. Safe to say she was really really happy with the results. She is really looking forward to having the team work with her on the big day. Everyone we spoke and interacted with were friendly and professional. The whole process-from booking to the execution of service-was easy.

But I must say they did an incredible job! They made my hair and makeup match my inspo picks so well. And they kept the vibe so fun. I really enjoyed talking to both of them. Alena even helped me get one of my earrings in after my piercing closed up a bit. And my mother in law loved her hair and makeup as well! They are a bit pricey but worth every penny!

I have had horrible experiences with makeup artists *cough* at MAC *cough*. I have some personal…read moreideas about makeup + me, like, for example, that I don't think foundation looks "right" on me, and I don't think I have lips made for wearing lipstick. It's just not me. I can't count how many times I've been pressured into wearing foundation when I.Don't.Wear.Foundation. It makes me look completely crazy, and I hate it. Veronica was the FIRST mua that didn't pressure me into it... In fact, she actually agreed with me that I look better without it. THANK YOU!! I'm not crazy!! I first heard about her through Anju (of AnjuThreads), who was hosting Veronica at her threading salon as one of her summer pop-up events. I was celebrating my birthday the week before the event, but figured that if Anju liked her, I would to. AND I LIKE HER! She came to my apartment and got me ready for my birthday with a gorgeous purple smoky eye. I was a complete mess that day because a billion things were going on, including the venue for my party changing 3 times in a day, and the built-in shelves I installed over my bed fell ON TO MY BED while I was at work (and thank god, not in bed), but Veronica was completely calming. I added a photo of my makeup so you can see what she did =)

I'm not really a makeup wearing girl. During my trial, I had trouble getting used to the lipsticks Veronica tried and the amount of eye makeup- I seriously have issues with makeup! She was so understanding and said she appreciated my honesty. We worked through some other options and I'm so glad that I chose Veronica to work with! At the end of the day, I was blown away with the end product. Veronica came to my hotel the morning of my wedding and did most of our makeup, which we were all very happy with. Thank you Veronica!!

I was looking for something minimal and natural and Briana absolutely delivered. She did an incredible job with my sister, mom, and grandmother too. Briana meshed so well with everyone and was able to go with the flow when there was a delay in the timeline. She was also so accommodating when I wanted to use some of my own products. I would absolutely recommend Shimmer & Spice and Briana to anyone looking for someone who will really listen to what you want and deliver!

Darian did my bridal makeup and gave me the glowy/natural look I was hoping for while simultaneously making me feel like a princess. What more could I ask for? She also went above and beyond by concealing some bruising on the face of one of my family members in the wedding party after an accident leading up to the wedding, helping them feel confident and look great on the day.
