I did a trial run for my hair and makeup and was immediately so impressed with both her talent and professionalism. Because I rarely wear makeup and I don't often style my hair, I was nervous about finding the right look for my wedding day. Chyla did such a wonderful job creating a look that made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself. My bridal party also had an amazing experience with Chyla, and we were all so happy with how everyone's hair and makeup turned out. We were also impressed on how well our hair and makeup held up throughout the entire wedding day, even through all of the crying (happy tears!) and dancing that we did. Chyla is incredibly talented, professional, kind, and all around wonderful to work with. She went above and beyond to make me and my bridal party feel our absolute best. I am so grateful I found her and would highly recommend her to any bride looking for someone who will make them feel beautiful, confident, and well taken care of on their wedding day or for any event/occasion!

We did two trials and then she came on the morning of my wedding for me, 2 moms, and 1 sister.

A quick search led me to goldplaited and their male grooming package, which seemed exactly like what I needed. I was looking for something really subtle and natural--just a more polished version of myself--and they nailed it. They took the time to understand the look I was going for and didn't rush the process at all. They also checked in along the way to make sure everything felt right, which I appreciated. Nothing felt overdone, but it made a noticeable difference once I got in front of the camera. I felt a lot more confident going into the shoot, and the photos turned out better than I expected. Super professional, easy to work with, and you can tell they care about getting it right. Really glad I found them.

Spent 100 on the class and then over 200 on the extras. The makeup doesn't even cater to all skin tones and I broke out because of the makeup. Will never recommend to anyone.

I got so many compliments on my makeup at each event. Maria is so nice to talk to, too, and is flexible and always willing to make any changes to meet what you like. We did a number of makeup trials and as long as I spoke up, Maria was great at adjusting the makeup to get my desired look. It is very important to her to make you feel great and she doesn't take any adjustments personally. She also went the extra mile before my wedding and brought me amazing skin care samples to use-- face scrubs & masks-- to help me really glow on the big day. On the wedding day, she was fantastic, as was her talented assistant. She was on time and she and her assistant got through the 5 person bridal party (4 bridesmaids, 1 bridesman who got male grooming with Maria, and 2 moms, and of course me, the bride), smoothly. Everyone was thrilled with their looks and so happy, and we all looked like movie stars! Her pricing is extremely reasonable, too, and good value for the work. I wish I had more events and excuses to work with Maria again!

Let's start with the good: Maria was very nice and accommodating…read more Unfortunately, I was disappointed and frankly shocked at how bad the makeup itself was. For eyes, the eyeliner lines were incredibly shaky (and not even a true black!!!), the requested blending was either nonexistent or very shoddily done (with streaks), and the lashes were noticeably plasticky with no mascara to mask the artificial texture. The blush technique and shapes were ALL wrong, concentrated all on the apples, and not in a good way, with almost no blending. The lip color was for one of the models was very unflattering! NO eyebrow definition. Also, I paid for some hairstyling, but she didn't even bring a curling iron. To be fair, we were rushed with one of the models, but one had PLENTY of time to be worked on and turned out like a clown due to the very poor attention to detail. Maybe I caught her on a bad day. The makeup I did on myself in literally 4 minutes was better than the end result. While I enjoyed her company, I STRONGLY advise you to stay away if you're looking for more avant-garde looks.
