Noel was amazing and super flexible! She made the bride look amazing with the ceremony makeup and then came back to rock a super-fun costume makeup for both the bride and groom for the reception! She was super fun to work with and very professional! Highly recommended!!

As many brides, I changed my mind many times and was super picky about my look. Noel was flexible and professional the whole way.

Noel did an amazing job! All the girls looked great, and we received compliments the whole night. My makeup was exactly how I wanted for my wedding.

Noel did such a great job with my wedding make up! She did exactly what I asked for on my wedding day. I had met her previously for a trail, but on my wedding day I decided I no longer wanted a smokey eye look. She had no problem with my last min. change, and my make-up looked exactly like I imagined it to look like. She also helped me conceal the acne that exploded on my face a few months leading up to my wedding (thanks Noel!). She is a very talented make-up artist. Noel also did some of my bridesmaids make up and they also looked gorgeous. Not to mention, she has great customer service! She replied to all my questions promptly! I would recommend her to anyone looking for bridal make up!

Noel was great! She was friendly heard my feedback and did an excellent job! She did take a while to respond to emails and send invoices. But I suppose it's a good sign that she's so busy because her work really is beautiful!

Noel did a really lovely job with makeup for me and my wedding party. She was super accommodating and used products that did not irritate my super-sensitive, eczema-prone skin. She was also very funny and fun to talk to. My only complaint is that she was running late the day of the wedding, which was stressful and made our timeline with the photographer a bit crunched. I think this was just a communication issue regarding the location of the wedding venue, which I wish she had sorted out earlier. That being said, though, I would absolutely recommend Noel. Her makeup is really beautiful and tasteful, and she is kind and encouraging--a really fun person to be around on the day of your wedding. And she brought rosewater to spray, which was really lovely!

Noel is amazing! She did my mother's makeup and my makeup for my wedding. She did exactly what we asked for and we were both beyond impressed with the end result. I couldn't get over how gorgeous my mom looked (not that she's not always beautiful)! She was very professional, but laid back, which helped me relax before the big event. It did take awhile for a response from her, but I know she's very busy. AMAZING!!!!!!

Noel was great to work with -- we had some communication hiccoughs initially, but once she hired an assistant to manage scheduling and paperwork things went very smoothly. Great thing to do!

The makeup and hair results were lovely - and Noel and her assistant were a kind and calm presence -- even when the mother of the bride was running late and the bride was freaking out a little. Her prices are a little high -- but I was coming from out of town and didn't have the time or the inclination to do more comparison shopping and was glad to have it done. It might have been nice to have the flat makeup/ hair prices adjusted slightly for some of the super-simple (pixie cut and mascara) folks, but overall I was thrilled with the quality of the work and everything was totally transparent.

Noel with the Vanity is wonderful to work with and she is definitely the best value in town! Her prices are fabulous and she travels to you! I loved my hair and make-up on my wedding day, and Noel made it all stress-free! No need to look any further, Noel is the best!
