Spectacular! Not one bad thing to say about Nicole!

She was a pleasure to work with, did my makeup and the makeup for my bridesmaids flawlessly. My sister, who normally doesn’t wear makeup, couldn’t stop staring at herself! Nicole is professional, cute, fun and easy to get along with. I look forward to booking her again in the future!

The most talented MUA in RVA.

One of the upsides of having to move my wedding because of COVID was getting to book Nicole for 2021. She did an amazing job with my bridesmaids and myself--we are all of varying skin colors and types and everyone looked stunning. She arrived on time, finished on-time, and was fun to talk to while getting ready. Would recommend her to anyone before she goes off to be a celebrity MUA.

Wedding Makeup

Overall, Nicole (and her assisting MUA) did a great job on my make-up for my wedding as well as on my bridesmaids. She was easy to talk to and work with, hence me hiring her. Her contouring techniques are excellent. I paid an additional $50 for my make-up touch-up kit and I paid an additional $20/each for my bridesmaids touch-up kits. They were not complimentary, which was totally fine with me, and as to be expected. Unfortunately, the touch-up lip color she gave me did not match the initial color (which was a mix of colors) she used on me. I did not find this out until it was already on my lips and I was moments away from making my grand entrance. I didn’t like the touch-up color and greatly disliked how it showed up on pictures. Now unfortunately, I have many pictures from the big day that I dislike due to this bad mistake.
