Megan is the perfect makeup artist!

I would give OVER 5 stars if I could!! Megan and Ashley were beyond amazing for my wedding day. My girls and moms felt beautiful. Megan was always quick to respond to my hundreds of questions during the planning process. As someone who does their makeup maybe twice per year, I felt so comfortable in my makeup done by Megan. We both believe in elevating natural beauty, which shows in her portfolio! I had provided only a couple inspiration pics during the trial, and she gave me exactly what I was hoping for, but even better! I had an idea of a lip color but could never find what I was looking for. She managed to find it on the first try, so it is now my forever lipstick color!! As a bride on her 95 degree wedding day, our makeup DID NOT BUDGE. I didn't even use my setting powder to touch up! Thank you, Megan and Ashley!!

Exceptional!

Shimmer and Spice did mines and my bridal party makeup, and did a phenomenal job! Meghan was extra patient, accomodated last minute requests and even dealt with difficult individuals. She was a true breath of fresh air for my getting ready part of the day! Thank you again for a seamless getting ready process!

Best Vibes and Makeup I’ve Ever Had!!

The Shimmer and Spice Team far exceeded my expectations!! Starting with my trial with Megan - her and Kristyn were so lovely to hang out with and get to know while I had some champagne and tried out my wedding look. Their store is so adorable and I chose to add on a custom lip color to bring on wedding day. This team was so fantastic with communication, sending me a timeline for day of over a month in advance and making all proposal updates super easy through their portal! Megan and the team were such a lovely presence on wedding day and made all of the girls look STUNNING! I loved my makeup so much, it was so light but still glam and truly just looked like an elevated version of myself which I really wanted instead of a ton of makeup that didn’t look like me. I would recommend this group to any bride looking to have good vibes on her day, excellent/no stress communication and a beautiful look that’s tailored to you!!
