Joy is an AMAZING makeup artist!! She has such a warm and fun personality that made me instantly feel comfortable. My wedding day makeup looked FLAWLESS. I got SO many compliments and I have never felt more beautiful! I added extra time for a small fee and she was able to stay until my ceremony to do touch ups at my venue. Given the fact that I'm a cryer and my husband and I were doing a first look, the peace of mind that came with knowing she was there to make me pretty again before my ceremony was PRICELESS. Joy was so much fun to work with!

Wonderful!!! I stumbled ulin joy after a disasterous trial with a salon and a quick google search led me to her! We set a trial that I used as my engagement photo makeup...and then did another trial for the wedding. I could not have asked for a more talented make up artist! The day of the wedding my hair was done, and Joy did my makeup...when I saw myself in the mirror I started to cry because I looked amazing...like every bride dreams. Make up stayed picture perfect through the tears from vows, and dancing craziness to follow. There is no one better! Thank you for making my day so special! A beautiful soul and a talented artist!!!

I loved working with Joy. She has a great personality, is polite, professional and fun! And she made me feel absolutely beautiful for my wedding day. I was a bit worried about my wedding day makeup as on the day-to-day I hardly wear any makeup at all... and it was important to me that I feel like myself, but I also wanted to feel special and more done up! Joy took my requests and delivered exceptionally. I loved my makeup and she also listened to my bridesmaids', mother's and mother in law's requests and make them look beautiful as well. Thank you Joy!

I am so grateful to have had Joy apply my makeup for my wedding day! Not only is her technique exceptional, but her bubbly personality made you feel at ease knowing you were in such talented hands. On the morning of my wedding, she traveled a half hour to my house to apply makeup to 11 ladies in my bridal party, as well as myself. With the help of her assistant, Jenny, she was able to apply our makeup earlier than we had originally planned, which allowed us to have plenty of time to eat, relax, and travel to the church for the ceremony. Joy was a rock star! I would highly recommend her!

State of Face did an amazing job! Everyone looked great on our big day. They were professional and easy to work with and collaborated with the bride and bridesmaids to make them look how they wanted to look. We would definitely recommend them to others.

Choosing Joy as our makeup artist was one of the best decisions I made during the wedding planning process. She came to our hotel at 8 in the morning and airbrushed the whole wedding party. We all looked and felt gorgeous! She is extremely talented, and super easy to work with. Very professional but was still joking around with us, she was just like one of the girls :) My makeup looked flawless all day long. I have never felt so beautiful! Joy truly is the best, I absolutely recommend her services!

When I first met Joy during my trial we quickly bonded over our love for dogs. I showed her pictures of looks I liked and through the trial I quickly realized that was not the look for me, thank goodness for trials. We tweaked the look and the end result was beautiful. All of my bridesmaids raved about their make-up and how much they liked it which says A LOT because a few of them complained about past experiences of having their make-up professionally done and not liking it. One of my bridesmaids even said the day of her wedding her make-up artist made her cry she disliked her make-up so much and had to redo it all herself, but she loved the look Joy gave her :) The airbrush make-up that she used gave me a flawless look the whole day. She also gave me extra lip color to touch up throughout the day which was amazing! I wasn’t feeling very well while getting ready that morning and was upset that I wasn’t feeling 100% on my special day. When it was my turn for my make-up things in the hotel suite were getting a bit chaotic with all of the vendors showing up and extra family around. Joy took charge and asked everyone to go into the attached room, she changed the music to something relaxing, and let me close my eyes and try to relax. I appreciated her doing this and it really helped me to feel better. My flower girl was not getting make-up done but witnessed me getting my make-up done and was really intrigued by the whole process. She is only 3 so mom did not want her having her make-up done, but Joy offered “princess lip gloss” and she just LOVED this. It was so adorable. Thank you Joy for making us all look and feel beautiful!

I cannot say enough good things about Joy from State of Face Artistry! She is such a talented artist, very professional, kind, and it was simply a joy to have her part of our special day. I did a trial with her about 8 months before and she worked with me to give me the exact look I wanted. I do not wear very much makeup and was nervous about airbrush and false lashes and all I can say is: if Joy says it will look good, DO IT! I had a small touch-up with her before the ceremony, but other than that my makeup was flawless until 2 am! Whatever look you want for your special day, Joy can make it happen and it will look better than you ever could have imagined.

Joy was a superb Make up Artist for our wedding day! She did a practice run with me and was willing to keep changing it until it was exactly what I was looking for and then made detailed notes so that they day of she was able to recreate it flawlessly! She showed up ahead of schedule and had extra time left over to do touch ups on everyone. Furthermore, my mom completely changed her mind about what she wanted done and Joy was wiling to redo her make up until she felt comfortable. She did a phenomenal job and I would recommend her to anyone looking!

I was a bit of a difficult bride, never had my makeup done, full of insecurities, and unsure how exactly I wanted to look. Joy put me at ease, immediately. We did two trials, at my request, only because I was so conflicted about how i "should" look. Both times Joy did an amazing job and listened closely to me. By the second look, I was SO comfortable and happy and just couldn't wait for the big day.

On the wedding day, I was shocked and amazed that my makeup stayed on ALL DAY LONG. We did pictures early, so i was in makeup from 2pm til midnight, and it looked amazing the whole time. I just loved it. Heck, i'd use Joy again just for a fun night out! :)
