Fun and natural

I hate makeup, and rarely wear it. Ren listened to me and did her magic to enhance my features without making me look made-up. Our wedding day was rainy, and her airbrush magic lasted ALL DAY without needing touch ups. I was so impressed. And, she made the whole process fun and lighthearted.

Ren did my wedding day make-up, and I am so glad I booked her! I was an out-of-town bride, so we did not have the opportunity to have a make-up trial. I sent a few pictures of preferred looks and explained what I had in mind, and Ren did an absolutely amazing job in the execution. The look was beautiful, natural looking and lasted all night. None of the make-up transferred to my groom’s lips or clothing. I will also mention that I am a woman of color, and Ren had no trouble matching my skin tone perfectly!! Ren was extremely professional, flexible and a wonderful person to work with! If you are considering booking her, my advice would be to go for it!!

Ren was fantastic in everyway. Not only is she one of the best makeup artists I have ever worked with she has a great personality. I loved my make-up on the trial run but the small adjustments that were made for the wedding day made it perfect. She called me back quickly and answered every question I had and spent lots of time making sure I was happy with my look. Her prices are competitive and she will come to you or you can go to her sweet shop in Jonesborough TN. I would use her for any makeup need.

There are no words to describe how wonderful Ren is, as a person and makeup artist! She was FABULOUS and so was my makeup! I am one of those girls who can do my own makeup so I was hesitant for someone else to do it. After seeing Ren in action at a bridal event, I knew. SHE was my makeup artist! I never even hesitated. Ren was everything and more that I needed for my wedding adventure! She did my makeup 3 times before my actual event. At my bridal shoot, and wedding day Ren made me and my entire bridal party look flawless, and not only was she the best makeup artist, she was also my peace and serenity when I needed it on my day. She was fun when I needed it and calm when I was anxious and her fiancé was also my videographer who is awesome on a whole other level!! Don't second guess yourself or pass these guys by, they are THE BEST!!!! By the end of my journey I was thrilled to call Ren more than just my makeup artist, she was my friend!!

It was my wedding coordinator who referred me to Ren. I don't typically wear a lot of makeup on a daily basis, so I was hesitant to try airbrush makeup.I do struggle at times with breakouts and I wanted to feel beautiful and confident on my wedding day, so I decided to give it a try. I visited Ren for a trial-run of my wedding day makeup and I absolutely could not believe it. She transformed me into a much more glamorous version of myself. She does regular make-up as well as airbrush and is so creative and fun. On wedding day, she arrived on time and was very professional and again transformed me. My makeup stayed great all day even through my windy outdoor ceremony and the tears. Ren, thank you!
