Lilia and her assistant took excellent care of me, 4 bridesmaids, and my mother in law on my wedding day in St. Mary's. It being an out of town wedding, we had to work out a lot of details through email and Lilia was very responsive and helpful, with videos of past clients and a detailed schedule of how much time we would need for the 6 of us. The day of, they came to us and brought everything they needed, even loaned my maid of honor a hairdryer when she was running a little late! They were professional and extremely patient, none of us consider ourselves "girly" and it was a huge stress relief to let someone else be in charge of making sure we all looked our best while we relaxed and enjoyed our girl time before the ceremony. Thank you Lilia!

Lilia made my wedding day flawless! She was able to communicate how long it would take to myself and my bridal party's hair and make up before hand and arrived as scheduled! She got right to work and I looked just as I had had pictured on my wedding day! Thank you Lilia!

I have one word for Lilia Budnik ..... Awesome!!!!!!
Not only was I lucky enough to be able to book her last minute, she recieved me with a smile even after I was late. She was very accomodating, asked me a few questions of what I wanted, type of event, look, etc... and she nailed it. I was complimented the whole night on how flawless my face looked and how gorgeous my makeup was. I would recommend her hands down, In fact I have already booked her for another event. You will not regret it if you book her.

Lilia was amazing to work with! She makes you feel extremely comfortable and takes her time walking through make up ideas with you. She desires to make sure she is putting together a look your truly feel is beautiful and you feel comfortable with. Her work is exquisite and she certainly made myself and my girls feel and look absolutely beautiful on my big day. I would recommend her to anyone!

She is great. Last minute was able to book her and she was professional. She showed up on time (when I was freaking out). Probably one of the only things that went right for my wedding. Highly recommend.

Lilia B. was my make-up artist for my wedding in St. Augustine. It was very important for me to have a professional make-up artist who could me and my wedding party look stunning and elegant for our special day. I had a trial with Lilia before my wedding and we knew exactly what we were going to do on the wedding day. Let me just say that she exceeded my expectations. She gave me gorgeous lashes and gave me beautiful make-up that lasted the entire night. All of my bridesmaids were impressed, and have even asked her if she would do a class teaching them how to do make-up. She was very pleasant to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone.

Look no further! I couldn't have asked for my day to have gone smoother!. Lilia was on time and did my makes up more beautiful then I ever seen! She is very open to what ever ideas you have and will give you exactly what you are looking for. My makeup looked fabulous all threw out my wedding. I received multiple compliments all night on how great my makeup looked. Lilia always responded quickly when contacting her, and is very reliable. Not to mention she is a total sweetheart :) If you want to be the prettiest you can be on your big day Lilia is defiantly the right person to choose.

Lilia did hair and makeup for my bridesmaids and I and it was absolutely PERFECT! She is so sweet and very talented and professional. I felt at ease from the moment I met her at my trial. I told her what I had in mind and she blew me away with the final result. She exceeded all of my expectations and I will definitely be using her services again. In fact, one of my bridesmaids has also booked her for her wedding later this year. Thank you Lilia, for making me and my bridesmaids feel more beautiful than we could have ever imagined!

All of my experiences with Lilia in preparation for the wedding were fantastic. She was great on the wedding day as well, showed up on time, very professional, very good at what she does, and sweet and friendly too. My only complaint is that she didn't style my hair the way she had for the trial run (which I'd loved) - the back was beautiful and she's very talented, but I think she was very concerned with it "staying put" and used too much hairspray and smoothing it down perfectly, when I wanted it to look soft and natural in the front around my face, not perfectly in place as for a ballet recital. I definitely give her credit for trying to fix it afterwards and make it as I was wanting, but there was only so much she could do at that point without me washing it all out and starting over, which obviously was not an option right before the wedding. That frustrated me and it doesn't look the way I wanted it to as I see my pictures afterwards either, but they're still pretty and overall I'd definitely recommend her to others. I'd just advise you face the mirror while she's fixing your hair, so that if its not how you want it, it can be corrected before its too late. She's very sweet. My makeup was great and did definitely last the whole day and night (as did my hair). I would recommend her and hire her again myself.

Lilia did a great job on the wedding we did together in May 2010. She was very professional and she enhanced the beauty of all of the bridal party. I look forward to working with her again. Thanks.

Lilia did such an amazing job on Kimmie! Her makeup was flawless, total 40's glam and fit kimmie to a tee! Her make up photographed beautifully, and I didnt have to do any touchups in photoshop it was so natural and amazing!! Lilia was super on time, I think done even a little early! So I got to wisk the bride away a little earlier for lots of photos to show off her amazing makeup! :-) Would love to work with Lilia again!
