I had the pleasure of working with Sherry during a modeling porfolio shoot. She did an amazing job on my model, we both could not have been more pleased!

Sherry has done my makeup every year for my company's holiday party. She absolutely transforms me from Lois Lane to this beautiful vixen. I love the incredible work that she does, that I have asked her to do the makeup for my bridal party and me for my wedding this coming Fall. She makes it an affordable, comfortable and fun experience. I highly recommend her for any occasion or when a girl just wants to pamper herself.

Sherry was amazing! She was professional, reliable and a pleasure. I'm so happy she did my makeup for my wedding party... we all looked beautiful and natural, Bc I didn't want an over-the-top, too-done-up look. She nailed it!

Sherry did my makeup for my wedding. She is skilled, professional and provides a stress-free experience. It was difficult finding a great make-up artist who could do east Asians. She was also able to help arrange for a hairstylist and recommend a photographer. She uses quality products from Limelight. I have very acne prone skin, so it was important to me that I didn't wear any make-up that may cause me to breakout. Also we were outside in the heat and humidity for a few hours, and I didn't have any problems with the makeup streaking or moving, and I'm the type of person who always seems to have mascara bleeding under my eyes within 30 min, but it was not a problem with how she applied the make up. The experience was great, I would definitely recommend her.

I love the makeup look I had on my wedding and was thankful I was able to do a trial session before hand. I would use sherry again in a heart beat!

Sherry is amazing!!! She is kind, professional, knowledgeable, and a super gifted make-up artist!! I found Sherry through my Maid of Honor, that had used her services for her wedding day. She did my makeup, my maid of honor a both mothers for our wedding day. Sherry and I met for a trail before the wedding day, she really took the time to listen and discuss the look we were going for. She is talented and on trend with what is going on in the beauty industry. Everyone in our bridal party was super pleased with their makeup and we all looked STUNNING in our photographs!! Sherry was a pleasure to have the morning of the wedding, she has a delightful personality and it was fun to hang out with her as she worked. She works fantastic under the hustle and bustle of a wedding day - I've seen her do 2 weddings now, my Maid of Honors and Mine. I would highly recommend her services, she's outstanding! Thank you Sherry for making me look and feel amazing the day of my Wedding!!

Wow. All I can say is wow. Sherry Restifo completely transformed my look for my wedding day while still making me look like 'me'. I still love looking at the pictures! She gave me a better version of me and also provided makeup services for my mom and my sister, who was my maid of honor. I was worried about my makeup artist making me look 'made up' and not me. We had conducted a bridal trial and I mentioned that I wasn't sure if I wanted a smokey eye or something more natural. She showed me how each would look -- one on each eye, which immediately put me at ease and helped me choose my look for the day. I told her the colors I wanted to play with, how I really loved a bit of a glossy lip and a bit of a bright color for my lips but not too bright since I was a redhead, and she completely delivered on my look. Sherry works with a bunch of different products and everything worked really well on my skin. I'm fair and it's always hard to match foundation for me, but again, it looked flawless and natural. Sherry worked on all three of us and got us done in plenty of time for the wedding. None of us felt rushed and she was completely professional. I would recommend her to ANY bride for her wedding day. On your wedding day, you want to feel like the most beautiful person in the room, and she definitely made me AND my mom and sister that way. Also, for you girls who don't like to wear fake eyelashes (which would be me) :) I wore them and she even tried on two different kinds of lashes she had since she knew I wanted them to be 'natural'. She was one of the best vendors we had for our wedding and I would recommend her to any bride. Her prices are competitive with everyone else I found in the area. Amazing work!

I had the pleasure of meeting Sherry year's ago at a close friend's wedding. Watching her work that day, interacting with the bride, her friends and family, she had this incredible way of putting everyone at ease while staying focused on the task at hand. So when the time came for my own big day, I reached out to her and was incredibly thrilled that we would meet again. Sherry was responsive from the very beginning, signing the contract, scheduling, preparing for the trial and wedding day sessions was hassle free. Her flexibility with when to meet us was so helpful, and she even arrived early both days. We had a wonderful time catching up, her positive energy is infectious and so much fun. Sherry also shared a bunch of wonderful tips on skincare and was open to sharing even more resources post-wedding. Sherry did my own and my spouse's make up, and we both quite literally did not stop hearing the compliments the whole day. We felt nothing short of confident, radiant, and gorgeous; exactly how one should feel on such an important day. Sherry was an absolute pleasure to work with and I would wholly recommend her over and over to anyone seeking a consummate professional at her craft. She is awesome! THANK YOU for everything!

Sherry is aboslutely amazing. She was reliable, on-time, easy to talk to, and most importantly, she made me feel gorgeous and sexy on both wedding days (2 day wedding). When I was planning for my wedding, she was the one person I knew I had to have. She had done my make up at a previous friend's wedding and the pictures turned out beautifully.

As for my wedding, I have gotten tons of compliments on my make up (in person and from the pictures). I was worried about the cake-on look, but she made my skin look very natural. She also did make up for my whole bridal party and my mom. I love that she was very organize and she gave me a schedule beforehand with a time slot for each person. It helped me plan where each person had to be because there was so much to do. She takes her time and listens to what you like and don't like. I highly recommend Sherry and I couldn't imagining having anyone else do my make up. I wish she could do my make up everyday.

Sherry was actually one of my March destination brides on Clearwater Beach. To see her move to Tampa and actually work in the wedding industry made this mama bear proud. She knows that you want to look FRESH for your photo's but also with a natural feel. Give her a call ladies, she understands what you are going through and will put you at ease.
