Beyond my Wildest Expectations
Nike is beyond talented, not only is she technically skilled in makeup application but she's also a storyteller able to wield her camera as artfully as she wields her make up brushes.
She understands the importance of skin tone, facial structure, and skin health and uses those inputs to create a roadmap to execute her clients makeup visions. Here's an example of what I mean. I have hooded eyelids and love the dramatic eyeshadow look where there's pop on the lid and contouring in the crease that give eyes dimension. Unfortunately makeup artists rarely achieve that look on me because the eyeshadow gets lost in my lids and the only time one can actually see the pop is when my eyes are closed. This wasn't a hurdle for Nike. She used a technique to make my eyes look bigger than they are and my eyelids pop even when open!! Suffice it to say, I was in love with my wedding makeup.
Since Nike is in high demand, I decided to get an early start and contracted her services ~9 months prior to my wedding date. Of the packages she offers, I chose to book the all-in package which includes a make-up trial for 2, day-of makeup for 2 and an entire day of makeup reapplication/touch-ups the day of the wedding. I highly recommend this package!! To have her with me the entire day to make sure I was flawless pre-wedding and during made me super confident that I looked amazing in every photo and at every angle. Which.I.Did!!
So if you're looking for a makeup artist who's extremely talented, responsive, reliable, flexible, professional and just an all around amazing person then you don't need to look any further. Nike is a G.O.A.T!!
