An absolute pleasure to work with on my wedding day - responsive, friendly, and arrived on time for every consultation/appointment. Kimberly (my MUA) really paid attention to what I wanted for my ideal beauty look while still making the right choices for my face, and I felt absolutely beautiful. Additionally, the wedding day team were able to make a range of skin tones and coloring (from pale with freckles to dark brown) in my wedding party look radiant.

It would be a mistake not to book this vendor. I have used BFF's services several times and have never been disappointed. It can only describe it as the height of professionalism, service, and a great product.

I called on BFF Makeup Studio at a very short notice for my photoshoot after I saw their work at a wedding show I attended. The makeup artist came to me and created magic! My biggest concern was looking natural on camera, previously, the camera would pick up the differences in my foundation and concealer and really make me look bad. However, this time I didn't have to have my face retouched and looked perfectly smooth and natural. I will be using them for all of my events leading up to my big day!

I absolutely loved Rashida! She as early, which is great! She was fully preparded with chair an lighting and makeup. Her spirit and professionalism were A +. I love how she prepped and primed me and my favorite was the highlighter and brows followed up by the lip color she selected. Perfection. I would have loved for her to match my complexion better and give me a more natural look but to her defense, I did not request that up front. I also think the contouring of my nose could have been blended better as it looked like was trying to create too much of a false illusion.
