Maureen gave my bridesmaids and me spray tans before the wedding and they looked PHENOMENAL and lasted so long! Will definitely go back for future events :)

I couldn't be happier with Maureen's kindness and professionalism, but the quality of her work is unmatched! My daughter had a very large bridal party with 11 bridesmaids (plus the mother of the bride, mother of the groom and herself) and it was no problem for Maureen to make everyone gorgeous in just a few hours! The ceremony was outdoors, in extreme Florida heat, and Maureen was able to provide a flawless look with makeup that felt light and breathable yet last for hours! With most of the girls' requests to look "natural" she was able to make us all feel beautiful and natural yet camera ready. Maureen was wonderful, we can't thank her enough!

Maureen came to our home the day of my daughter's wedding and had the bride, 4 bridesmaids and the biggest challenge, me, her mom for the wedding makeup…she did a WONDERFUL JOB AMIDST UTTER CHAOS with everyone having hair done at the house as well as our photographer and an assistant in and out and of course, other family like my husband, son and 2 dogs. Nothing rattles her and she is a consummate professional as well as a darling young woman (did I mention gorgeous?)…We also scheduled a "trial run" at our home for my daughter, who is a "makeup diva" herself and when she thought Maureen was wonderful, I knew we had the right makeup artist! She even took a few years off of me which was amazing! Seriously, she is WORTH EVERY PENNY and would do it again….

Maureen was wonderful! I loved the way she did my make up on my wedding day. I am very particular with having my make up done and it was perfect! She really listens to you during your trial run so it goes smoothly on your special day. If only she could do my make up every day! She also did my bridesmaids make up and they all thought she did fabulous job. She also did my spray tan a few days before the wedding and it looked great! She is so talented at what she does. I would highly recommend her for any event or occasion!

Maureen was an absolute pleasure to work with from start to finish. Leading up to my wedding, Maureen was incredibly responsive to any e-mails I sent her and also arranged to do a makeup trial with my mom and an amazing spray tan for my maid of honor. On my wedding day, she arrived early and was very professional.
Maureen was also very warm and friendly and made me feel totally comfortable and able to tell her exactly what I wanted. Beyond makeup, she helped calm my nerves on the morning of the wedding. Being a newlywed herself, Maureen knew exactly what it was like to be a bride, which really helped put me at ease.

Maureen did both my make-up and tanning for my wedding. She was wonderful! Everyone who had their make-up done was in awe of how great she made them look. My spray tan lasted a long time and she made that process as un-awkward as possible ;-)
She is friendly and helpful. Offered great advice and was able to tell me if she thought something wouldn't work. She arrived on time, set up quickly and stayed within the timeframe she initially advised. The products she used are top-notch and she was very professional.
I strongly recommend!

First let me start by saying that I am not the easiest of clients when it comes to makeup. I was one of those brides who had a very specific vision but had no idea how to describe it!! Somehow Maureen read my mind and picked up on the little bits of cues I could give, and executed the most gorgeous makeup on my wedding day I could've possibly imagined!! Prior to the big day, I gave my bridesmaids a choice of getting their makeup done on the day of, and the two that didn't immediately wished they had once they saw Maureen working her magic. She has a way of making you look gorgeous and glamorous without compromising your natural beauty and not looking too "fake and plastic" like some makeup artists can do. She was also so lovely to have around that day, all my girls loved her and I'm so glad she was apart of my special day. I recently learned Maureen was voted #1 makeup artist in Jacksonville and it is so deserved! if you are getting married in the area, and looking for a makeup artist seriously...look no further. Hiring Maureen will be the best decision you make!!
I'd also like to note I received a spray tan from Maureen two days before the wedding and it looked perfect! She can adjust how dark/light you want to go, so I was able to get the bridal glow I was looking for without looking too tan. She really nailed it!

Working with Maureen was an absolute pleasure. She was extremely flexible and responsive throughout the entire wedding planning process. I would recommend Maureen to EVERY bride who wants to look stunning & flawless on her wedding day! I also used Maureen for a spray tan the week of the wedding. It was so natural and lasted 2 weeks!

Maureen is a best-in-class professional and a true pleasure to work with. She made every one of us feel beautiful, while making us laugh and keeping everyone at ease throughout the day. I will recommend Maureen to anyone I know looking for professional makeup services (and she's the only person I'll ever use again!). She's certainly the most talented makeup artist in Jacksonville and I was so pleased with her ability to make me feel extra special on a very important day.

I was so happy with how my makeup looked for my wedding and even when the weather was warmer, all of my makeup still stayed and looked great until the end of the night. Maureen did my mom's and many of my bridesmaids' makeup as well and everyone was really happy with how it looked!
