    An Absolute Treasure!

    I am not a bride, but instead a makeup artist who has had the pleasure of working alongside Charisse while she was in Ithaca, New York. During my time assisting Charisse I was consistently blown away by her professionalism, talent, and expertise in all things skin. As both an esthetician and makeup artist Charisse brings your bridal look full circle, ensuring you are taking proper care of your skin leading up to your big day so that your makeup application can be its very best. She is calm, patient, and thoughtful when it comes to your makeup preferences and any skin concerns you may have. Charisse is a joyful addition to the start of your wedding day and will ensure that you, and your bridal party, leave confident, beautiful, and most importantly, feeling like yourself. I learned so much working with Charisse and want each and every bride she works with to know that you are in the best of hands!

    So far, I have only had my makeup and hair trial by Whitney and Ashley and let me just say, they are both incredible and it leaves me little fear going toward my wedding day. Both of them listen to what you want but also are willing to offer advice if you ask them but I felt like both of them knew what I wanted without me even saying a word. I also got assistance in all the pre-wedding services I inquired about: facials, waxing, spray tanning etc. and we created a timeline. I also had the pleasure of getting my eyebrows filled by Charisse while I waited for Ashley before my appointment. I consider myself to have very high expectations and this place is professional, welcoming, and make you look and feel beautiful.

    Miel Beauty Bar is one of the few hair and make up teams that will travel to your house to get you and your girls ready for the big day. I loved this since it allowed my bridesmaids, mom and I all to relax in the comfort of my home while we got ready. Ashley (make up) and Whitney (hair) were fast, accommodating and flexible. They were patient while minds changed and they were incredibly friendly. They also do a trial at the salon for the bride, which i loved!

    I was so pleased with the the makeup services that Miel Beauty provided for my wedding day. I'm never one to wear much make-up and Charisse's ability to enhance my natural features without making me feel "overdone" was so appreciated. I felt like the best version of myself. She did the same for my entire wedding party, who all had different skin and hair tones. Her calm presence would be such a gift to any bride on their big day. I would recommend her without a moment's hesitation!

    Charisse and Yvette and their team at Miel are AMAZING. I’ve use their services for spray tans, facials, waxing and make up. Every experience was top notch in service and skill.

    My number one worry about my wedding day was having a “bad skin” day. I’d been to several derms in the area and they made my skin worse. I started seeing Charisse about 5 months before my wedding day. She figured out my issue, recommended products/treatments (without ever being pushy) that got my skin glowing way before the big day arrived.

    During my hair and make-up test run, Charisse could tell I was not happy with my hair. She offered to find a new stylist and do a second test run. I was confident the stylist would figure it out day of (she did and I loved how my hair looked), but I appreciated the offer.

    Ashley was my make-up artist. My make-up looked exactly how I imagined and stayed put the entire evening. My mother was worried about looking too “done up” and not “age appropriate.” Ashley did a perfect job and my super picky mom was very happy.

    The customer service is second to none. I did not have a whole team of bridesmaids who needed hair and make-up (just me and my mom). They never ever made me feel like my wedding wasn’t a top priority. I got a huge zit on my chin the week of my wedding and emailed my “glam squad” for emergency treatment. They fit me the next day.

    If you are getting married in the Finger Lakes, there is no one else in the area who is as knowledgeable and skilled on current make-up/hair trends and skin products/treatments. Book Miel Beauty as soon as you know your wedding date! Their wedding season calendar fills up fast because they are the BEST!

    Charisse and Amelia did such a wonderful job on hair and makeup for my bridal party and I! They were extremely responsive and easy to work with, which was really important to me planning a wedding from out of town. One of my biggest worries during wedding planning was how my hair and makeup would turn out (especially after I had a bad trial with another salon), but as soon as I met them at my trial any anxiety went away and I knew they would do a terrific job.

    On the day of the wedding, they arrived early and finished with all of the girls ahead of schedule and everyone was thrilled with how their hair/makeup turned out! My hair doesn't hold a curl very well and I was worried about how my half up/half down style would stand up to August weather, but Amelia did a fantastic job and it looked great all night! My makeup turned out very natural, but also beautiful in photos! I couldn't recommend Charisse or Amelia more!!

    Miel Beauty Bar was absolutely fantastic for my wedding! I did a full body spray tan (trial and for the wedding) and makeup too. For the make up, I did two trials and was able to pick my favorite. All in all, they are amazing! Highly recommended.

    I got a spray tan for my wedding and it was just perfect. I'm fair-skinned but wanted a nice glow for my white dress. Charisse listened and gave me exactly the tan I wanted. She's very nice and easy-going, and ensured that the whole process was comfortable. My sister also got a spray tan by Charisse, and was equally pleased. Highly recommended.

    Charisse and Ashley were absolutely amazing on my big day. They got through 9 of us in under 3 hours. Everyone's makeup looked amazing and photographed perfectly. I could not ask for a better group of woman to create such a flawless bridal party. Love you guys!!!

    Charisse is amazing!! My makeup looked incredible and it didn't move throughout the entire day where it rained and everything was very wet and humid. She also covered two tattoos on my back with her airbrush machine. My dress was open in the back and I did not want them to be seen. What she did was almost unbelievable. If you didn't know I had tattoos on my back, you would not have found out that day. Charisse is a beautiful make up artist and she's personable and very accommodating and easy to work with. She went above and beyond for me and I am sure she treats all her clients that way! I will recommend her over and over again!

    Charisse was wonderful! Every member of the bridal party felt beautiful and no one felt like they looked like they were "going to prom," (overdone, too much, unsophisticated etc.) she got everyone done in a timely fashion and our make up lasted through the hot ceremony, pictures and well into the night. Thank you, Charisse! I have already recommended you to friends :)

    Charisse and Whitney are fabulous ... I found them through wedding wire because I live in Boston but was getting married back home in watkins Glen. I only was able to do one trial run because I couldn't travel home very often begore my big day. The trial went very well and the day of our wedding, they made me look and feel so beautiful. I was so happy with the result on my wedding day... Everyone kept commenting how pretty my makeup and hair was done. To me, it was so important to look my best and they both helped me do so. They were excellent and offered to come to hotel to get us all ready. I can't say enough what a great team they are. I feel so very lucky that they could help me and my wedding party look so beautiful.

    Charisse and Amelia did an amazing job on hair and makeup for me and my bridesmaids! Throughout the whole planning process, they were easy to communicate with and quick to respond to any questions or concerns. At my hair and makeup trial, they were able to look at a few of my inspiration pictures and create a unique, but natural look that was exactly what I wanted. On the day of the wedding, they came to our hotel to help me and my girls get ready, which made things so much easier for us as we had all traveled from out of town. They were fun and professional and made all of us look gorgeous - and everyone's hair and makeup looked just as great at the end of the night as it did before the ceremony! I could not have asked for better hair and makeup artists.

    Charisse is absolutely wonderful and professional! She showed up early and stayed after to ensure we all had our last minute touch-ups! She convinced me to get fake eyelashes and I am SO glad she did...they help your eyes pop in the pictures and you cannot even tell you are wearing them! She also provided spray tans for a few of my bridesmaids and they looked so real...not orange at all! We also had Whitney do our hair and we all looked amazing :) If you want to be relaxed the morning of your wedding and not worry about the beauty details then Miel Beauty is for you!!

    It was wonderful to work with Charisse and her partner, Amelia. From the initial contact, through my trial, and on my wedding day, Charisse and Amelia were very professional and personable, and they both provided me with beautiful results. They provided hair and makeup for myself, my maid of honor, my mother, and my aunt. They did a stunning job on everyone. I have never felt so much like a princess before. Charisse had a very natural approach, which ended up looking very elegant in pictures. Both were very talented and responsive to our questions, concerns, and desires for both our hair and makeup. They were professional, quick to answer emails, on time, and worked very well with one another. I would highly recommend them. Thank you both for making my wedding even more beautiful! - Aja

    The absolute best! Look no further really! Charisse is so attentive to every detail. She made everyone look amazing and she completely listens to what you would like and follows through exactly. We were only in the area for the wedding so unfortunately I can't use Miel regularly but I would never look any further if I did. Very professional, very comfortable, awesome work we felt wonderful the whole day.

    Having Charisse do make-up for my wedding was one of the best parts of the entire event. The ladies and I looked absolutely amazing--Everyone involved and at the wedding loved it, and every person who sees our pictures says the same! Charisse is so talented and went above and beyond to make me look my best on my Wedding Day. She accommodated everyone, took her time, checked and rechecked--just cared so much that everyone was beautiful and happy. My extreme nervousness was calmed by my extreme confidence because of my bridal look! I give her the highest praise and recommendation and am so thrilled she took care of my family, friends and I on my special day.

    Charisse was awesome! Professional in all aspects of my wedding day. She was very flexible and accommodating. My makeup, as well as bridal party, and my two daughters, was amazing! Her thoughtfulness in doing my daughters makeup for no charge just shows the type of person she is, caring!! Great personality, great makeup artist. I would recommend to everyone. Thank you Charisse!

    Charisse did my make-up as well as my mother, the mother of my groom and a bridesmaid. Whitney did my updo and my six bridesmaids. They were not only incredibly responsive, professional and AMAZING at what they do-but they are FUN and the biggest sweethearts you will ever meet! We each brought in photos of our desired look and they made us look exactly how we envisioned in such a short time frame . Whitney worked her magic so quickly and provided us with updos that were flawless and lasted all night without any touch ups necessary. And Charisse made me look incredible! she knew exactly what to do in order to make my features pop in pictures. Several guests came to me and told me how amazing my hair and make up were. I felt SO beautiful on my wedding day-and thats exactly how a bride should feel.

    Both women were very approachable and listened to what each of us wanted. They both showed up on time and really managed their time well. They made the morning so easy and stress free. I am recommending all brides I know in the Ithaca area to reach out to them. Thank you ladies -you were such assets on my Big Day!

    Charisse does amazing work! I could not have been happier with my makeup on my wedding day. Charisse was extremely professional but also very personable. She was great at creating a natural but beautiful look for me. I would definitely recommend Charisse ( and Amelia, who did my hair!) to all of my friends and family.
