    Her peaceful set up prior hand

    The quality I received was excellent, not only do you walk into a beutiful set up that looks aesthetically pleasing but it also sounds peaceful. Her equipment was comfy making the experience 10x better. I felt relaxed and at peace. Melissa does a great job of explaining which facials is right for you if you don't have an idea of what you want. She also does a good job of explaining what benefits a services does. On top of that, she recommends great products for me and what products would help me with my redness. My skin felt amazing afterwards not only did she hydrate my skin she exfoliated it. My body felt extremely relaxed because not only does she focus on your face she focused on massaging your shoulders. The overall experience was 10/10. Melissa is very knowledgeable and professional in what she is doing. She is constantly upgrading her equipment and her skills with more course to further a better service. Not only do you feel relaxed you can tell a difference in your skin even with one session! Don't be hesitant on booking in fact book your appointment now!

    Melissa's Astounding Work!

    When someone loves what they do, you can tell right away. Melissa is the BEST! Not only is she a complete sweetheart, but she is so passionate about her craft, and it shows. She has done my halloween makeup before, and for the work she has done, she was very efficient as well as good about keeping it a secret (I asked her to do anything she wanted, and to not show me until the end,) and she delivered! It's a plus that she only uses animal-friendly makeup products, which are such good quality! The make-up lasted throughout the whole day, and she gave me exactly what I wanted, while adding in her quality, and lovely creativity. She is always on time, if not early, and is so educative about the makeup she applies, as well as the process. Melissa is very organized, VERY sanitary, and overall SO talented! You will never go wrong with her!

    Overdue Review: Bridesmaid Makeup for March 2016 Booking 5/5- Easy to setup appointment for makeup trials Communication 5/5- Responds immediately and is upfront about prices and availability. Service: Very personable, professional and prompt! Called upon arrival to Hotel room and showed up with a refreshing energy. Works with clients' preferences to achieve the ideal look- Natural and a bit of shimmer for 3/5 of my bridesmaids. Although she is known for her dramatic looks and use of color, Melissa does a standup job even for natural looking makeup. Melissa was 1 of 2 makeup artists I booked and she was able to successfully do the same (if not better) natural glam look in great time while also making the experience fun for the girls as well. My bridesmaids felt at ease and expressed their adoration for Melissa and their chic eye makeup. Overall: Highly recommend! Melissa coordinates well with other wedding vendors (such as makeup artists and hairstylists) to make sure your wedding party looks perfect. If you want a pleasant and hassle-free Makeup experience, please book now! I also recommend Melissa for Halloween looks! She did an awesome job with a Harley Quinn makeup look for a convention I attended in May 2015. Look lasted the whole day while I walked around for many hours! PS. Will be posting Bridemaid Natural Glam look Pics as soon as I have the chance.

    Before and After:  Make up done by Melissa!  Go book now!

    Melissa is awesome! I had a 8am morning appointment with her today for my engagement shoot and she was easy to work with. I sent her a message on yelp and she responded to me in less than an hour! Setting an appointment with her was super easy and she is very responsive. Melissa can do it all! She can go dramatic or also very soft. I wanted a very simple and natural look and Melissa delivered. No need to feel shy around her, she will listen! I changed my mind on my eye shadow, and Melissa was very patient and had no problems with helping me find the right color I wanted. She is very sweet to talk to, awesome with make up and very affordable! 5 stars for me :) Thank you Again Melissa!

    Melissa did an excellent job on our makeup for a Halloween party last night. She was on time, very professional and fun! We received many compliments on our Scary makeup, my Husband was a very convincing Count Dracula, and I was his victim! I look forward to having her doing my makeup for an important photo!

    Melissa is amazing! She is so talented and she listened to every request I had. I am so glad I chose to go to her! I'm very happy with the way my makeup turned out for my graduation ceremony! She also is very flexible in timing! Due to the rain I had to reschedule a few times. I HIGHLY recommend her if you are wanting to look amazing!

    Melissa is an AMAZING makeup artist. I booked her for a bridal makeup trial and fell in love with her work and her personality. She was able to produce exactly what I wanted, and even suggested I try a red lip after seeing my vintage style dress. It was perfect! My makeup lasted 9 full hours before I took it off for bed. Usually my foundation is smearing or my shadow is all clumped in my eyelid creases way before then. But not this time! I liked her so much, I came back for a Halloween look, which she also nailed. I cannot wait to have her do my makeup for my wedding next year!

    This review is been long overdue. I found Melissa via yelp and her studio is right across the street from my place. From the beginning my experience was very smooth. I got the makeup with premium lashes done for a party and oh boy, was she wonderful! She listened to my requests carefully and crafted my makeup very well. I received so many compliments that night. And another thing, I didn't have to bring anything with me and she provided vegan organic products for everything. All her brushes were clean and well kept. I highly recommend her for every event.

    Melissa is amazing, she helped to make my wedding amazing. I let her know what I was looking for and she knew exactly. She was able to take a natural look to the next level. I absolutely LOVE her work and what she did. Also for my daughter she did amazing too.

    Elena G.

    Used Melissa for a wedding I was going to, she did an amazing job! A lot of her work is dramatic which isn't something I can really pull-off so I asked her to do a more natural look using the same color palette as my dress. It turned out ridiculously amazing. I got so many complements, even the bride asked me who did my makeup. Totally recommend! Just make sure to book early cause she fills up fast.

Treating myself to a facial felt like a small but meaningful step in my recovery. Unfortunately, I never had the chance. The business shut down on 2/5/25 and there was zero communication to me or to the person who bought it. What makes this even more concerning is that the website is still up and it continues to display a message saying there are no appointments for the next 30 days. This gives the impression that the business is temporarily booked or unavailable, not permanently closed. It's misleading and prevents customers from realizing the business is no longer operating. There was no notice, no refund, and no attempt to honor existing gift cards. This is incredibly disappointing and feels deceptive to customers who trusted them with their money. I would strongly caution anyone against purchasing gift cards or prepaid services from a business that does not communicate honestly or prioritize customer trust.

It was by far the most relaxing experience I've had that I fell asleep on her massage table during my facial experience. My skin feels rejuvenated and my face is glowing.

She is very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable of her craft. Myeshia is definitely one of a kind holistic skincare expertise and if you want to feel relaxed with radiant skin and feeling revitalized, I highly recommend her services! She will not disappoint!
