Marilyn's Make-Up Magic - Makeup Artists Near Me - Scottsdale, Arizona

Look no further Marilyn is the best in the industry! Let me just start by saying she treats patients with Alopecia in which case an eyebrow and eyeliner are not just for vanity reasons but can make someone feel beautiful again. Thank you Marilyn for treating my step mom with such care and doing a truly magnificent job. We had so much fun getting our first "tattoos" together. My eyebrows look so natural and beautiful! I must say I was amazed how I felt zero pain and looked 100% fine to carry on with my day. Marilyn made a perfect shade, shape and size to fit my face. You can trust that you are in good hands of a highly trained professional, artist and pioneer in the permanent makeup industry - She is the best! Thank you again Marilyn you are truly talented at what you do. read more

I have a serious medical condition, and have been searching for someone with the expertise and high-level training to help with permanent makeup. Marilyn is amazing. I have complete confidence in her talent and abilities and felt comfortable in her doctor's office location. I highly recommend Marilyn! read more

I have been going to Marilyn since the late 90's. She did my brows, eyeliner and lips way back then, including enlarging my lip line. Just saw Marilyn again to liven up my color and I'm so happy I did. Things have improved since the 90's and I'm so pleased with the results. Marilyn is an artist and a perfectionist and will make sure you are happy with your results. She does things like the inside of the lower eyelid and lip shaping that nobody else does. And she's fun to be around! You won't be disappointed! read more

I have been going to Marilyn for 20+ years for brows, liner & lips. Every time I have been very happy with the result! 3 years ago I went to someone else for brows because of a personal relationship. It seemed good at first but faded much more quickly. I've seen too many brows that were too thick, too thin, the wrong shape or color. I won't go to anyone except Marilyn. read more

Marilyn is a delight to work with and she is a true perfectionist! My lips look absolutely fabulous! I will definitely plan on going back for other permanent make up magic! You will not be disappointed. read more

Marilyn is great, the very best as far as I'm concerned. Her pigments are all organic which means they will not turn the funny colors on you down the road for example, black sometimes turns blue or purple with time or even red(color comes off completely but you have the scar) Marilyn is known to fix problems such as those. She is truly an artist. She is the only professional I know that can do a full lip and you won't feel any pain and I know that as a fact because I have tried at least three others! I won't lie and say that it is all completely pain free because in my experience it's not. The eyebrows and lips did not hurt at all but my eye liner did. Was it worth it? Yes! Marilyn also does the part of the eyeliner that no one else does, the inside part and I absolutely love that! Is she expensive? Yes! Worth it? Yes! She is definitely one of a kind and has a personality to match! read more

Marilyn's Make-Up Magic is by far superior to any other permanent make-up artist I have known. As a retired nurse, I've been able to explore many options, but have found no one who compares. Working in a medical office, she uses only prescription grade topical anesthetic, making all her procedures completely painless. This is something you will not find at any salon offering similar services. I would go to no one else, but Marilyn Byerly. Thank you for your artistic skills and all you do to make us more beautiful. read more

I consider myself extremely fortunate to have found Marilyn's Make-Up Magic. Marilyn is truly a perfectionist that wants to make her clients feel special. I had my brows, eyeliner and lips done 10 years ago. I had touch up done about 8 years ago and just went back to have my brows, liner and lips done again, they still looked good but needed some refreshing to look amazing again. I travel across the country to have Marilyn do my makeup. She is just that good!!!!!! I can not say enough wonderful things about my results, even my husband of 35 years loves it. He said it looks so natural and beautiful. Anyone looking to have any tattoo work done by Marilyn will not be disappointed. Kim read more

Marilyn did a great job on my lips and eyebrows. She listens carefully to what you want and then creates it! My eyebrows were so thin towards the ends and I was going to get a groupon to have them tattooed. Lucky for me I mentioned my plan to a friend and found out her eyebrows were tattooed on! I couldn't believe it so I took her recommendation to go to Marilyn even though I had no discount. With permanent makeup; discounts aren't always the best plan anyway! Very happy and will continue to go to Marilyn for any and all my permanent makeup needs. read more

I have looked for YEARS for someone who could redo my 'old' (tattoos) eyebrows! I don't trust the younger technicians that seems to think that an eyebrow as big as a caterpillar is a 'nice look' ?!? Really? So I was SO glad to find Marilyn's Magic. After the first consult I knew she understood my situation, (with my old BLUE eyebrows). I've had my first visit with Marilyn & couldn't be more pleased !!! The shape & size is perfect for my face. I'm thrilled. I will likely redo my eye liner too. read more

All I can say is that her experience and techniques are the very best and most important SAFE. You never come away from there looking like a clown. I have been going to Marilyn for the past 20years. I brought my 93 year old mom there. She looked 15 years younger after Marilyn finished. We LOVE her. Please don't go away. Love ya! read more

Marilyn is a true artist, outstanding at what she does. She literally recreated my lips which, because of a medical condition (Scleroderma), virtually disappeared. Before I went to Marilyn I was so self-conscious about my lips; my goal was not to have them look like a movie star's; I just wanted them to look normal. I am thrilled with the result; I can honestly say that, due to Marilyn's incredible skill at what she does, it was life changing for me. read more

Just trust Marilyn as she is a professional with many years of experience. She has a gift of making you feel at ease right away. Twenty years ago I had the eye liner done by her. Very recently I went back for an Eye Liner Redo. Oh my, have things changed. The numbing cream worked! I felt no pain at all. The first time, all I had for pain was one percocet pill. In comparison, this time was a picnic! Even if there was no such thing as this numbing cream, I still would have it done again. The results would still be worth it. read more

As an esthetician I have seen lots of really regrettable permanent makeup and when a friend told me she was getting permanent makeup done, I was skeptical until I saw her amazing results. She had gone to Marilyn for lips, eyeliner and brows. I later became a client of Marilyn's as well and I have been thoroughly impressed with her commitment to the highest standards of sanitation, education, honesty, customer service, and the right service for her customers. She draws on her 30+ years of experience to make sure that you get the most flattering result and that you are never surprised by the outcome. She also insists on a free consultation with each new client to make sure the client is comfortable with the procedure and has had all questions answered. And perhaps the best compliment I can give Marilyn is that people constantly ask me how I do my makeup and tell me how good it looks, and when I tell them it's permanent eyeliner, they can't believe me! And yes, she does cost more than some competitors you may see advertising around town, but is it really worth it to save a little money on something that will be on your face forever? Don't chance it. Marilyn is the best and would be a bargain at twice the price. read more

Marilyn once again outdid herself when she did the works on me (lips, eyebrows & eyeliner)! She is truly the best permanent makeup artist ever!!! I had the same procedures done over 16 years ago and I can honestly say she's better than ever. Her diligence in finding the best products is what makes her number 1 in her field for over 30 years! Her numbing techniques made it totally painless and her artistic talents make you look beautiful. If you ever considered getting permanent makeup at least come in for a consultation. You will love the office and her staff. Heidi was working the day I was in and her outgoing, charming personality blends well with Marilyn's and you will thoroughly enjoy your time with them. read more

Marilyn is the best in the business, hands down. She has been doing this for over 30 years and is an expert color-mixer and artist. Her procedures are all 100% painless, her pigments are organic so they won't change colors or be harmful to your skin, and her eyebrow shapes, lip shades, and liner colors and thickness are precise and gorgeous. You will not regret paying a little more to come here!! read more

Absolutely Amazing!! I had my lips, eyeliner and brows tattooed by Marilyn and I am so happy! I had a scar on my lips that thanks to Marilyn, no one can see. She is an absolute professional! Her office is spotless, her staff are so sweet and helpful. I could not have asked for a better experience. If you are looking for permanent make up, look no further, Marilyn is the best with over 30 years of experience! read more

First, Marilyn does beautiful work...leaves a natural look yet you wake up in the morning with eyes and lips done! I like it especially when traveling...regular lipstick disappears quickly and the new stuff cakes...but with Marilyn 's lip color, you just add gloss. Finally, she is pleasant and friendly, yet professional. Found her at least ten years ago..have done a couple of touchups due to sun exposure...best beauty secret ever !! read more

I can't believe I'm the first person to review Marilyns Make-Up Magic. She costs a little more than some less professional competitors, but you absolutely get what you pay for - true artistry and a pain-free experience. I had gone to someone else for my lips and besides not coming out very well, I was one of the most painful experiences I've ever had. When Marilyn re-did it, what a difference! read more

Marilyn's Make U Magic is AWESOME! She is a true artisan. The customer service and office environment are great. I would highly recommend Marilyn for all your PAINLESS permanent makeup needs!! read more

Yes, yes, yes. Got both eyelids done. Love, love, love it. Wish I had done this years ago. Marilyn did a great job and I highly recommend her. Pain free! read more

I am one of Marilyn's few male patients that she has treated over the years, as normally Marilyn only takes females as patients. Marilyn made an exception for me, based on my rather unique situation. Since age 16 I have had a large scar on my head that literally goes from my ears all the way around the top of my head, like an arc. The scar was caused due to a traumatic event and I've been very self-conscious about the scar for the last twenty-five years. I look best with short hair but I've always had my hair cut longer on the sides of my my head to camouflage the scar as much as possible. Before seeing Marilyn I thought my only option was hair transplant surgery--something I've not been able to afford. And scar tissue only has a 50% success rate for transplanting. I've had four derma-rolling procedures done so far and the results have been amazing. In addition to the treatments done my Marilyn (at her office) I have also been doing derma-rolling at home using a derma-roller tool that Marilyn supplied me with for my ongoing home treatments. Also--per Marilyn's instructions--I regularly use Rogaine on my scar tissue. I am thrilled to say that since I first saw Marilyn my scar tissue has been smoothed-out significantly and throughout my scar tissue there are new hair follicles growing. I will forever be grateful to Marilyn for what she's done for me, as no doctor/specialist I've ever talked to about my scar recommended any treatment options that gave me any hope. read more

My eyeliner looks awesome! Makes my eyes pop! Marilyn was very meticulous doing my eyeliner. She made you feel so comfortable and if there was any pain she would stop and apply more topical pain reliever. The aftercare instructions were explained in detailed but then a copy was provided in your home care packet. I would recommend her in a heartbeat. She is so sweet and very professional. In the near future I plan to go back and have my brows done. read more

I just had Marilyn touch up my lips. As always she did a fabulous job. Marilyn is by far the best in the business in the state of Arizona. She has done my eyes, brows and lips as well as my daughter's and many friends. Some people have unrealistic expectations about this type of procedure but I can tell you she has always exceeded my expectations and those of my friends. I receive compliments regularly on my make-up and I tell people it's tattooed. People are amazed and quite often end up going to see Marilyn. She rocks it!!! read more

Marilyn is a true artist and professional. I am a natural platinum blonde with very fair skin and I wanted someone who knew how to apply permanent makeup correctly. I did not want an overly made-up look, as I have seen on some doing permanent makeup, especially with those who have darker hair and skin. I wanted mine to look natural and it does. Her application on my eyebrows and lips turned out great. Both procedures were completely painless and the dye she used is organic, which was a must for me. Keep in mind that no good permanent makeup artist can get the proper result without 1 or 2 followup treatments because everyone's skin is different and takes the dye differently. I had 3 total applications for my lips and only 2 were needed for my eyebrows. If you are going to get permanent makeup, Marilyn is a perfect choice. She is kind and considerate and knows what she is doing. read more

I waited until I had my touch up for my permanent eyebrows done to write this review. In a nutshell, I am VERY pleased with my whole experience here. I was very nervous going in but my fears were quickly alleviated. The whole procedure was easy and painless. I am very happy with the final result. My brows are the perfect color and look very natural. Would highly recommend. read more

As a resident of Southern California, the options are endless when it comes to permanent makeup...it seems as if there is a salon on every corner. However, I was not comfortable trusting just anyone with the task. After talking with my aunt, she absolutely insisted that I go to Marilyn as she has been a client of hers for over 20 years. I have to say, it does not get any better than Marilyn! She spent a lot of time making sure that I was comfortable (totally pain free!) and that the eyeliner color complimented both my eyes and skin tone. Marilyn has the best products (all organic), and she was very calming, professional and a true artist that has mastered her craft. I would recommend anyone considering permanent makeup to save themselves the time and hassle of their search and just go straight to her - I could not be happier with my results and am so happy that I went to Marilyn!!!! read more
