Heather Sent on 06/23/2025Looking Gorg!
While both my wife and I have worked in the wedding industry, hair & makeup was probably the thing we knew the least about. We quickly booked with a different company to do both, but left feeling like it wasn't a good fit after our trial with them.
I had known about Jacs for a while, but when I finally looked at her portfolio I was blown away by her work. We realized that one of our closest friends had also used her for her wedding! Stressed about the time we had left, we were able to book a trial with Jacs and signed a contract soon thereafter.
Jacs was such a calming presence on our wedding day, and got along so well with our VIPs. I was never nervous to ask for a tweak here or there, and she was amazing at taking feedback. Everyone looked truly STUNNING! We were so lucky to have Jacs as a part of our day! -

Jacs is THE BEST. Not only is she a superstar MUA, she’s kind and a fun hang! She can do it all - any skin tone and style. I had an amazing experience with Jacs and would have her style me again in a heartbeat. -

Beauty by Jacs is Top Tier
I have never felt more beautiful than on the day of my wedding which is all thanks to Beauty By Jacs! If you want to feel your best on your wedding day then you NEED to hire Jacs. My wedding makeup lasted through so many tears and laughs without a single stain or crease to prove it. I loved that I had glam but still looked like me! She has an incredible talent for highlighting someone’s best features. Each of my bridesmaids had makeup that was unique to each individual while still considering the overall style of the wedding.
Jacs’ responsiveness and professionalism made her an easy choice. Jacs was extremely flexible when I made last minute changes to my bridal party and family’s make-up request. Choosing Jacs made my wedding day seamless.
Not only is Jacs the most talented make-up artist I have ever met, she has a beautiful soul. Hiring Jacs will ensure you feel your best inside and out on your most important day. -

Stephanie Sent on 11/15/2023Just book Jacs now!
Stop searching for a makeup artist now and just book Jacs!! You won’t be disappointed. She was my hype woman, photography assistant(even though she didn’t have to be), and most importantly makeup artist extraordinaire!!! Jacs went above and beyond her duties to make sure my day went as smoothly as possible. She’s really just the best and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I asked for a light and natural look that softly enhanced my face and that’s exactly what I got - I felt myself which is exactly what I wanted! You won’t regret booking her. -

Fantastic ❤️
It was so hard to find a make up artist in Ocean City that could work with Darker skin tones. Jacs was so sweet, fun, professional and knew exactly what I wanted done on my wedding day! Her expertise is amazing she literally brought tears to my eyes and I highly recommend her for anyone who wants to looked glammed up for any occasion!! Thank you so much again Jacs!!😊❤️ -

I can't say enough wonderful things about Jacs! First, she is incredibly friendly! Throughout the whole process she has shown her professionalism and kindness! She made me feel incredibly comfortable and beautiful.
As a bride, it is incredibly difficult to find a MUA that can make you feel confident and an elevated version yourself. She did such a wonderful job!! Everyone kept complimenting me and the others she did makeup for. She has perfected the natural look.
I 1000% recommend Jacs to anyone in need of a makeup artist!!! -

Kirsten Sent on 07/12/2023Best Professional Makeup Experience
Jacs is literally the BEST! Jacs reached out to me about doing my wedding make up. Her work is AMAZING. She is a professional who makes you look flawless. I went to her home for a trial and I was so amazed! I did not want to remove my makeup. She hit the mark after sending all my inspiration pictures. I felt fully confident in her for my wedding day. A week before my wedding my cat scratched my chest and I freaked OUT! I quickly contacted Jacs and let her know and she gave me the advice to keep it moisturized. Day of the wedding, she made the residual scratch DISAPPEAR! You would have no idea that I had a 4 inch long scratch on my chest. Jacs and her assistant were so professional, a calm presence, and created a positive vibe in the makeup space we had at the venue. They made my bridal party look AMAZING! My bridesmaids still talk about how it was the best professional makeup they’ve ever had! I HIGHLY recommend Jacs and her assistant for your wedding day or event! -

Best. Makeup. Artist. Ever.
BEST. MAKEUP. ARTIST. EVER. I could not have asked for a better makeup artist to be there on my big day. Every single woman who has seen my photos asks me how I got my makeup to look so natural but perfect at the same time. Jacs has mastered allowing you to look like yourself and so natural on your wedding day but also glammed up and feeling extra beautiful. She was so good at listening to what I wanted and she nailed it! She is also the most calming presence and made the day even more fun!! Her and her team also did my bridesmaids and our moms and they loved their makeup as well. They are truly the best! -

Jenny Sent on 01/12/2023The best for your big day!
If I could recommend one thing from my wedding to another bride, it would be to book Beauty by Jacs. From the moment I contacted Jacs, I knew she was the makeup artist for my big day! She is so sweet and excellent at communicating on top of being one of the best in the biz. I've had my makeup done for a lot of weddings and as someone who doesn't wear much, I typically feel like I look like a little kid who got into her mom's makeup bag. Not with her!
Jacs made me feel so beautiful and when I asked for "natural" looking makeup she couldn't have done a better job. All of our makeup was flawless and we all felt so beautiful ALL day. Through all of the tears and LOTS of sweat, I tell you that makeup didn't budge.
With the number of girls getting their makeup done, she needed to bring her assistant Katie. I can't stress enough, these girls are TALENTED. I had a couple girls on the fence about paying to have their makeup done but I strong suggested they wouldn't regret it. Sure enough, they all said at the end that they were so happy they signed up! Jacs and Katie both have very similar techniques and they make the best team.
The group was women of all ages and skin tones. My mom looked 20 years younger!!
Aside from their talent, what was really big for me was their amazing energy. If you think about it, you are booking someone that you are going to spend a majority of the morning of the best day your life with. It seriously felt like they were apart of my group of best friends. We all had so much fun together and they showed up on time, if not not early, and were ready to get started right away. They were so comfortable and fun to be around that I was sad when we were done, they should have come to the wedding!
To sum it up, don't skimp on makeup. Don't go with someone else just because they may be cheaper. You get the full experience with Beauty by Jacs and you will go into your big day feeling like the queen you are! I am forever grateful to Jacs and Katie for making my day so unbelievably special! -

Amanda Sent on 10/03/2022The best Wedding Party make up
I got my make up done by Jacs originally for my friends wedding in 2019. At that time I wasn’t engaged or planning a wedding yet, but I knew whenever the day happened I was using her services for my make up. Whether you are the bride or bridesmaid or in wedding party she makes you feel like the most important person especially while doing your make up. She is so positive and light hearted.
Fast forward to 2022.. When it was my time to get married I messaged her right away and she was happy to reserve my date for me. I am probably the most awkward person when I am getting my make up done but she makes you feel so relaxed and calm. I felt like I was just hanging out with my friends on the morning of my wedding. Her energy radiates over to everyone. She’s extremely knowledgeable on how to help you look and feel your best and so easy to speak your opinion to. She genuinely is happy to create the look you. She creates magic. Book her!!!! You will not regret it!!!!! -

Magnificent Work and the BEST Energy
Finding a makeup artist for one of the biggest days of your life (and easily the most photographed day of your life) is simply overwhelming. I get it! But if you’re reading this, there’s no need to continue your search — you’ve found the best of the best. Jacs is utterly amazing. From the moment I met her during our trial session (which ended up being the makeup for my engagement pic session) I knew she was the right person. At the trial she looked at my inspiration pictures and listened to my concerns about my skin and made me look and feel amazing.
She was so responsive to all of my pre-wedding questions and arrived the day-of right on time. Jacs did an incredible job on my makeup as well as all of my friends and mom. I got married in the thick heat of August, but the makeup stayed just as perfect as when she did it earlier in the day. I truly felt like the best version of myself with the help of her meticulous work.
Aside from her magnificent makeup talent, Jacs has the most beautiful, calm energy. On a morning filled with chaos and so many moving parts, one of the most relaxing times was getting to sit in Jac’s chair and chat with her. Having a vendor like Jacs was such an invaluable gift to start out my wedding day. I cannot emphasize how much the energy of your crew matters — and Jacs’ is 100000% perfection. She is such a joy to be around and will help make your day magical.
I will absolutely be looking for excuses to visit her again for her amazing work! You can check off make-up artist on your to-do list and know that you are in the absolute best hands.

Jacs was the perfect choice for our wedding and I will recommend her to everyone! I LOVED my makeup and received so many compliments on it. Not only was my makeup beautiful, but she was extremely professional, punctual kind and fun! I truly can say she was one of the best vendors we worked with for our entire wedding. -

Lara Sent on 06/27/2022Incredible makeup artist!
If you are reading this review, go book with Jacs right now!!! Jacs is truly an artist and she will make you feel so beautiful for your wedding! She was so friendly and easy to work with. I ended up wanting a different look than my original trial and she make it so simple to do a second trial so I could feel more comfortable. She absolutely nailed it again on the day of the wedding. She brought along a second person to help who also did an amazing job. Every single person in my bridal party was so happy with their makeup - even the pickier moms! By the end of the night - even after literally getting rained on, laughing, crying, etc - my makeup still looked flawless! -

Simply the best
Best. Decision. Ever. Jacs is so talented and delivered exactly what I wanted. Even months later, I look back at our wedding and feel she was one of our only vendors that was worth every penny. She did my makeup for both my wedding events and I am so thankful. I felt absolutely stunning because of her work. Both looks created were similar, but a little more glam for my evening event compared to my church ceremony makeup which was more natural. Even my girls (who are all very picky) LOVED her and said it was the best they’ve felt, too. She was calm, professional, and a great person to have around the wedding chaos. She can do full glam/contour/highlight as well as simple and natural looks. The makeup lasts all day and looks perfect in all lighting; it does not look “cakey” or too heavy which was always a fear of mine.
Jacs is simply the best- don’t wait to reach out! Thank you for making me feel beautiful and for being so accommodating during my crazy covid wedding! Xx -

The most beautiful I have ever felt
I wish I could give Jacs 10/10 stars!! She is so talented and made me feel like a queen on my special day! She can really do it all! If you want a more natural look, more bold look or anything in between - she will nail it and leave you feeling so beautiful. Her make up collection is high quality and she has such a wide variety of shades! Your foundation will match perfectly, look flawless and stay flawless all night long!! I danced so much on my wedding day, cried so many happy tears and my make up looked incredible at the end of the night! She is super creative, professional, personable, kind and an amazing hype girl! Both Jacs and her second make up artist, Katie, made us all feel so beautiful and confident!! I highly recommend her!! -

Taina Sent on 11/19/2021Best MUA around!
Jacs is amazing! Before my trial I had never gotten my makeup done professionally before so I was a little unsure of what to expect. I quickly found out that she is super sweet and very professional. She knows her stuff so I felt very comfortable trusting her. I knew I wanted a natural look, because I hate when people look like they've got too much makeup on or that 'caked/chalky' look. After seeing her portfolio on IG with lots of examples showing before and after, I could see the high quality of her work. She did my engagement shoot and day of the wedding makeup and I couldn't have been happier with the results. I would tell her what I was going for and that I wanted to try out different looks and she was totally game. I had a beach wedding and we wanted that dewy, natural glam but with a playful feel. I also had a bit of a 'pearl' them going with my attire with a pearl veil and thin pearl belt but I still wanted a little more so I asked her if she thought putting on pearl gems as part of the makeup would be too much. She said we could always try it and just leave a little extra time incase we didn't like it to take it off. She really came through though and was able to incorporate the pearls into my, my mother's and my MOH's makeup. We all loved it! It totally fit the theme and was visible but subtle and not over powering at the same time. I was happy I chose her because I could see how happy my crew was after their makeovers.
At this point Jacs has done my make up 4 times within the past year and every single time I get down from her chair I feel so beautiful! She's got magic hands and knows just what will make someone's best features stand out. Not only that, but the makeup lasts all night long with no smudges or tear trails! She did recommend to get a lip gloss for touch ups after the kissing pictures, but with all the craziness of the day I forgot to do those touchups.
I already know I want to book her again for my next big event, a birthday milestone coming up in 2022!
Hire Jacs, you will not be disappointed! -

Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
Jacs did make up for my wedding on January 11. From coordinating the trial to the day of, she made me so comfortable with the process, was super responsive, really flexible with me, and just generally so great to work with. Then her actual work - the make up she did for myself and my bridal party - SO FREAKING AMAZING! Everyone loved how their look turned out, especially me. She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I can’t say enough good things - please do yourself a favor and make the easiest decision of your wedding day. Work with Beauty by Jacs! -

My wedding was November 16th, 2019. Jacs was the ultimate professional- kind, knowledgeable, and fun! Not only did she make me feel like the most beautiful girl on what was the happiest day of my life, she made my bridesmaids and the MOB and MOG feel stunning as well. I can't thank her enough for all of the time and energy she put into my day, and I can't wait to recommend her to everyone I know! -

Kelsey Sent on 12/07/2019Do you want to look nothing short than amazing on big day? Look no further!
My wedding day was nothing short of amazing and Jacs had a huge part in that! Jacs and Katie kept us all so calm and there were no worries if the makeup would turn out ok bc they seriously made everyone look stunning! The amount of compliments I got saying how beautiful/stunning/gorgeous I looked was amazing...I wish I could have Jacs in my pocket everyday to do my makeup bc my confidence was out the roof on my big day! My husbands sister in law had only met me the day before Bc they live so far away and apparently she’s not the Crying emotional type... well my now husband told me when she stopped in the wedding suite to see me and when she came out she was crying and My husband was like what’s wrong Sam are you ok? And she says while sobbing “I don’t even know Kelsey that well but she is soooo beautiful.” That was just one of many who glanced at me and began crying that day but Even with my tears in response to others the makeup stayed in tack! All the ladies and moms looked their very best- each makeup style was perfect, not too much but just right! Thank you so so much for all you guys did. Not to mention their background jam music was amazing and added extra happiness in the room :)
I certainly will be choosing Jacs for all the special events in the future. I highly recommend you do too! You will NOT be disappointed. ❤️ -

Jacs is the best! I could not have been happier with how my make-up turned out. She transforms you into the best version of yourself with her amazing talent. I felt super comfortable throughout my whole wedding day and my makeup held up great through hours of dancing and lots of photos! Jacs is very personable and so easy to work with. She listens to exactly what you want and what she delivers exceeds all expectations. Above all, she is super fun to hang out with! I am so happy that I chose Jacs to be a part of our big day and I look forward to using her for again for future events! -

I found Jac when she did my makeup as a bridesmaid in a wedding back in June, she was so relaxed and funny and down to earth! I loved my makeup so much I knew I HAD to have her for my wedding and spoil all my girls with their make up too! She's so talented and has helped me really make my vision a reality! plus She's got some awesome pups I got to meet at my trial (always a plus)! -

I’m so glad that I decided to hire Jacs to do the makeup for my wedding! Whenever I had any questions she promptly answered them. She’s friendly, kind and very professional. I also greatly appreciated that she didn’t have a minimum for services because it was originally only myself getting makeup done because I wasn’t sure if anyone else would want to. Ultimately she ended up doing makeup for myself, my grandma (flower girl), mother and 2 of my bridesmaides. Everyone looked absolutely beautiful. People kept calling my grandma Paula Deen because of how fabulous she looked (lol)! I highly recommend her and will definitely use her services again in the future if there ever comes a time!
Thank you for everything you did Jacs! -

Jacs was just perfect! I hired her to do my wedding makeup on 11/17/18 and she did a wonderful job. She also did my mom's makeup and one of my friend's. She arrived at the hotel on time and she was very professional. For my makeup, Jacs did a beautiful natural look! exactly what I wanted. I love how she did eyebrows! I am glad I found her and I would definitely hire her again. :) -

Angelina Sent on 12/17/2018The BEST Makeup Artist - Highly Recommend!
I booked my wedding makeup for myself and my bridal party through Beauty by Jacs based on recommendations from friends who also loved her services! From the moment I sat in that trial chair, I knew I made the right choice. Jacs is SO personable. She listens to exactly what you want and is quite literally a makeup genius. Her style is bold, yet delicate - the kind that leaves you looking stunning without any trace of effort. Her face blending is on point and her false eyelash options were fantastic! My girls loved her and her co-makeup artist Katie. I could not have been more pleased. BOOK HER FAST! She fills up quickly - for good reason! -

Absolutely Amazing!
I wish I could give this amazing girl 10 stars because I totally would. I can not say enough how much I absolutely LOVED my makeup when Jacs did it for my sister in laws wedding. I am super picky about my makeup but I was obsessed with what she did. She is such an incredible artist and human being. So kind and down to earth. Being in the wedding industry my self (Pins & Curls Hair Artistry) I have worked with numerous makeup artist and Jacs is one of my top makeup artist I recommend to all my brides. Jacs is definitely your girl if you want a flawless face on your wedding day! -

Jade Sent on 08/09/2018I would totally recommend Jacs to anyone for makeup for any event! I was referred to her and scheduled a trial for my wedding and she did such an amazing job. Jacs is the sweetest and accommodated my early morning wedding with no problem. I ended up wanting to change my makeup style from what I requested for the trial and both were so beautiful! Her home makeup studio is adorable and professional. Would definitely go to her again in a heartbeat!

Katelyn Sent on 06/11/2018am someone who is very particular about her make up. I like to wear a lot and before my wedding I was so worried that I wouldn't find someone who could do my make up the way I like it. I booked my trial with Jacs and I knew I had found the one!!!! She did my make up PERFECTLY and it didnt budge through an EPIC cake smash. 100 percent would recommend. She is THE BEST.
P.S. ask for some sparkle. You will be MIND BLOWN -

Juliana Sent on 10/19/2017Jacs did my makeup when I was a bridesmaid in a wedding, and I have never felt more beautiful! Usually I am nervous to have my makeup done as I am a makeup lover myself! But Jacs is very talented and skillful when it comes to makeup techniques. I've never had anyone else do my makeup better than I can! I wish I could have her everyday lol. She also uses only the BEST quality products and makeup tools. People who opted not to get their makeup done regretted it! Especially on a day when you just want to relax and not worry about it- and knowing lots of pictures will be taken- it's totally worth it!
