Amazing Hair & Makeup!

We used Beauty Bar for my wedding hair & makeup and it was a great experience! They did an incredible job not only making me feel like the most beautiful bride, but also glamming up my bridal party! Kristina did our hair and Sean did our makeup. Highly recommend!

The Best Hair and Makeup Crew!!!

I could not be happier with Beauty Bar!! I had a large bridal party and Beauty Bar's team was efficient, friendly, funny, and incredibly professional. Renee kept me updated and was in contact throughout the planning process and special shout out to Sean and Bianca who did my hair and makeup!! They listened to my hair and makeup needs and helped me feel so beautiful and special :)

Kristina is awesome!!

I went to Kristina many times leading up to the wedding, for engagement photos, the bridal shower, the rehearsal dinner and she did me, my sister and my mother on the wedding day. Jessica did all the bridesmaids. They came to our Airbnb the morning of the wedding, and both got right to work! They were prompt and finished all of the make up with plenty of time for any touch ups before we left. All of my girls loved their make up, and my wedding day make up was everything I wanted! Our wedding was in May, and it turned out to be 95 degrees that day. I can honestly say my make up lasted all night long despite the heat!! I will continue to use Kristina and the Beauty Bar for all my event make up in the future, and recommend them for your wedding day!

Lovely experience

I love 5 minutes around the corner and didn't know they were there. They so much more than hair and makeup; spa, clothing, etc. I just had my hair done. I did my own makeup, but it was easy and simple. Done within an hour.

Perfect Bridal Glam Squad

If I could give Beauty Bar 10 out of 5 stars I would! Cannot say enough good things about their bridal glam squad, facials with Eva, and in general haircuts and services here! I recently got married and had fabulous experience working with the salon. Melissa did an AMAZING job on my hair and my bridesmaids, mom and godmother. Julia did my makeup and was fantastic! This is the number one bridal glam team in Delaware for a reason and it would be silly to use anyone else for your big day or facials leading up to it!

Beautiful Makeup!

I had Julia for my bridesmaids and I and my mom and she was fantastic. She knows exactly what she’s doing and was sooo quick too! It took her about 30 mins for each girl and we had so much extra time to pack and relax before my wedding. Everyone looked beautiful and it all looked amazing in pictures!

Amber is the best!

I recently got married in November and used Beauty Bar by Kristina Ruggerio. Amber was our makeup artist for the day. She was so nice and listened to exactly the type of makeup everyone wanted. We had a total of 9 ladies and one flower girl who got their makeup done that day. Everyone loved their makeup! She was hands down the best! I highly recommend her!

AMAZING bridal make up

Kristina is insanely talented. She did an amazing job on my make up for my engagement photos, bridal shower, and wedding. My bridesmaids loved their make up, and both my mom and groom's mom loved theirs. It is hard to please people of different generations and different styles, and she nailed it. She also works very quickly under pressure. I recommend her to anyone and everyone! Of all my wedding vendors, I was most impressed by her!

Our makeup looked beautiful all night

Julia Downes is amazing! She did makeup for me, my mom, and my four bridesmaids and we all looked gorgeous. She was so nice and personable and made sure to cater to each of our specific skin types. After my bridal trial I reached out to her with a few things that I noticed about my makeup by the end of the day, and she was able to make adjustments and my makeup stayed looking perfect for my whole wedding. My whole wedding party couldn’t stop talking about how good they looked, we all felt amazing!

Amazing Talent. Kind. Professional. Best in the Business!

Kristina Ruggerio and Julia Downes are AMAZING talent. These two ladies did my engagement photos (Julia), bridal shower (Kristina), and wedding (Kristina). Every time my makeup was done by an artist with Kristina Ruggerio Cosmetics my makeup was FLAWLESS. Also, working with Renee both via email and day of was SUCH a pleasure. Living far away while planning a wedding can be challenging, but Renee and Kristina made me feel confident and in great hands every step of the way. Despite the many facials, treatments, and skin care regimen my dermatologist put me on for over a year leading up to the big day, my skin went ballistic with acne due to stress and travel the week of my wedding. I was upset and felt very insecure, but Kristina managed to make me look and feel like a million bucks. I was so grateful for her kindness and talent when I needed it most. I will use her whenever I'm in town and will recommend her to everyone I know. Such a sweetheart and such an amazing artist! Thank you for everything, Kristina!

Kristina has done several weddings with our team and each time the result is the same: high-end makeup that is done amazingly well and always on time. As a photographer, I am so appreciative of MUAs that are aware of the schedule and keep our brides on it. Kristina delivers a wonderful end result with professional ease. I hope to work together with her again soon!
