Book Beauty Icon!
Highly recommend Beauty Icon for your bridal hair & makeup!! From my first contact with the Beuty Icon Team Manager "Oxana" to my experience getting ready on the morning of my wedding,
I cannot speak more highly about the Beauty Icon team. My wedding was in NY but I live in Phoenix and due to flight cancellations wasn't able to make it back for my trial but I wasn't nervous at all because I was confident in the services that Beauty Icon provide.
If you follow them on Instagram you can see how they are the best team to highlight natural beauty.
Everyone looked beautiful and hair and makeup lasted all day! I had Paulina do everyones hair including my own and she also did my makeup.
Another artist Emine did everyone elses makeup and she was so sweet and everyone felt so beautiful and comfortable with their makeup. You will not regret going forward with Beauty Icon!! -

Incredibly talented crew!
OMG the Beauty Icon team is incredible! I attended a friend's wedding back in 2020 and I was immediately wowed by the bride's look. I almost immediately set up a trial for myself:) I immediately knew I wanted to work with them on my big day. Liza and Elena are kind, professional and extremely talented. I don't normally wear a lot of make up (neither do my bridesmaids) and I wanted to look like myself on my big day. They listened to my concerns, looked my inspo pics and DELIVERED! I felt amazing on my big day, and most importantly I looked like an elevated version of myself. My make up lasted through sweat, happy tears, a lots of partying. I have fine hair that doesn't hold a curl very well. Liza convinced me to get hair extensions to help, and blended it in so well I forgot I was wearing them. I can go on forever on how wonderful these women are!! I highly, highly recommend Beauty Icon NYC -

Beauty Icon NYC was recommended to me by a colleague who hired them for her wedding day. I knew makeup was important to her so if she trusted Beauty Icon then I knew I could too. And indeed they were amazing! Paulina was the main artist for me and Elena did several bridesmaids. They are both very talented and very kind. My wedding was in Hudson Valley - outside of NYC - but they both arrived on time promptly in the morning and stayed until our first look and helped with touch-ups, too. Everyone's makeup stayed amazingly well into the night and they all loved their looks. I would 100% recommend Beauty Icon to any future brides! -

I absolutely loved working with Liza and the Beauty Icon team! They are responsive, professional, and super talented! I had a diverse wedding party, and they were able to work with a variety of complexions, hair textures, etc. with ease. Everyone looked stunning! I got to work with Liza again for a post-wedding photoshoot and she left me looking just as good as wedding day. Not to mention she and the team are super nice and easygoing. 10/10 would recommend! -

Working with Beauty Icon for my wedding hair and makeup look was a dream. The studio was extremely easy to work with. Studio manager Oxana was very responsive and matched me to the perfect artists for my style and price range. Julia and Marina worked wonders the day of my wedding. They were friendly and made each bridesmaid, my mother, and my mother-in-law feel gorgeous. Julia created a killer makeup look for me and the perfect hairstyle. I felt fantastic on my wedding day and lover every photo I've seen. Beauty Icon NYC is truly the best team for your NYC based beauty needs! -

Emily S. Sent on 10/28/2019MAGICAL! Best makeup artist ever
Liz is such a dream come true. She is sooo sweet and extremely communicative and SO TALENTED. She knows exactly what will accentuate your features without overdoing it. She did my bridal makeup as well as my bridesmaids, MOB and MOG. Everyyyyone LOVED their makeup. The mothers looked beautiful and natural, just like they wanted - and the bridesmaids got that little bit of glam they all wanted to feel a little extra special. All of our makeup and lashes lasted allll night (my lashes were even still on the next day which was sweet) - we didn't need to touch up at all.
When I was originally looking to book a MUA for my wedding, I thought it'd be wise so save money and go with someone cheaper. WRONG. I booked a cheaper MUA, and ended up losing a $300 deposit after I panicked and realized I hated the trial and had no faith she'd be good for the big day. I gladly lost that deposit after I then found Liz and had my trial with her. She is worth every single penny. So so soo glad I booked her. Thank you Liz!!!! -

Most amazing artists!!
I can not say enough great things about Beauty Icon. I knew immediately I had to work with them just after scrolling through their Instagram portfolio but booked right after I did a trial with Liza. Liza has the power to make you look and feel amazing, while still making sure you look like yourself. I worked with Liza and Dasha on my wedding day this past September and had the best experience. They did the hair and makeup for myself as well as my mom and 6 bridesmaid and everyone looked so beautiful and was so happy. They really listened to each individual person and executed everything perfectly. -

Liza perfectly achieved my desired classic wedding look
I planned my wedding very, very quickly, and I waited until the last minute to decide on who to hire to do hair/makeup—luckily Beauty Icon accommodated my last-minute needs and told me Liza Ray was available. Less than a week before my wedding, I had a trial with Liza. I explained to her that I wanted a glamorous but relatively natural look—hair down, makeup that would be subtle and complement my complexion (I’m a redhead). I showed her a few inspiration photos and from there she created a beautiful look, exactly what I wanted. The day of my wedding, Liza styled my mom and sisters’ hair—they all loved their looks—and once again created a glamorous, classic wedding look for me. Liza is also truly one of the most genuinely sweet people I’ve met. She was a joy to talk with during the hours we spent together during the trial and on the morning of my wedding. I can’t recommend Beauty Icon/Liza enough. -

Perfection
Liza is FANTASTIC. She is professional, friendly, and truly skilled in hair and makeup. If you’re looking for flawless makeup and a modern approach to hair styles - look no further. I chose her because I loved her textured updos - they are red carpet glam perfection instead of stiff outdated wedding do’s. I’ve never felt more beautiful. I recommend her 100%, and would use her again in a heartbeat! -

Working with the Beauty Icon team was effortless and wonderful. I went in with little direction (natural makeup and a colorful lip, hair up), and Paulina brought this to life in a way that made me look like myself, but elevated -- exactly what I would have hoped for for my wedding day. My bridesmaids and the mother of the groom had equally wonderful experiences, especially those who had specific requests around being able to do their own eyebrows, or filling in eyebrows more than they had naturally, etc. Thanks so much for making us feel beautiful! -

Michelle Sent on 11/04/2019I searched high & low so you don't have to - THE BEST!
The perfect hair & makeup artist is such an integral part of your wedding day - they help you feel & look your best, bring together your bridal vision and set the tone for the day. As someone who does her hair & makeup on a daily basis, I knew that finding the perfect HMUA was going to be a challenge. Most were either too subtle, or too over-the-top - I couldn't find that perfect sweet spot. Until I found Beauty Icon.
Liza & her team are amazing. I worked with Liza on my hair & makeup trial as well as on my wedding day, and she did not disappoint. She's so incredibly talented, open and encouraging - she made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself, but never hesitated to make any tweaks or adjustments I asked for. My makeup looked perfect in photos, and everyone was absolutely in love with the hair look she created. Her team also did a phenomenal job on my bridal party, creating cohesive yet tailored looks for everyone, and constantly making sure everyone was happy with the outcome. My bridesmaids commented all day on how calming and reassuring they were, how gentle their application was, and how fantastic they felt.
On top of that, Liza was beyond flexible with the wedding day scheduling, even when I changed the start time again 2 days prior. Nothing was ever an inconvenience, and she made sure that everyone stayed on schedule, which was incredibly important to me. I would recommend Liza & Beauty Icon in an instant, and they will forever be my go-to whenever I want to feel extra special.

Stunning hair and makeup!!
Beauty Icon NYC was amazing!! I am so happy that I choose them for my wedding hair and makeup, and I HIGHLY recommend their services. They were professional and attentive throughout the wedding planning process. I had a total of 10 people (including myself) getting hair and makeup done on the morning of my wedding. Before the wedding, Beauty Icon worked with me to make a schedule for everyone’s hair and makeup shifts. Beauty Icon made what could have been potentially a very stressful morning, completely easy. Karina, Alena, and Tara arrived on time (6:45am!) and were cheery and fun throughout the whole morning of getting ready!
The best part of working with Beauty Icon was that the artists really highlighted everyone’s beauty and accentuated their best features naturally. They used high quality makeup and products, but didn’t cake them on. All our styles lasted beautifully till the end of the night. (Which is especially impressive, because it was an August wedding with a lot of dancing!). Karina did the bridal hair and makeup, and I felt glowing and confident the entire day thanks to her.
Thank you again Beauty Icon! -

Bar Sent on 07/18/2019Beautiful, soft and chic H&M
Cannot recommend enough! Young but timeless, cool but chic, soft and with a glow! I found Beauty Icon on instagram and was already tired of my search to find makeup artists and hair stylists because many seems old fashioned to me. I was looking for a fun and soft look, something more natural with a glow and was scared to look too done up and not like myself. Paulina and Liz were exactly the artists&stylists I was looking for. They were so pleasant to work with and this is so important during the madness of wedding planning. -They were flexible in their arrival time which made the wedding day flow so much better. -My mom, mother-in-law and granda felt and looked so gorgeous and elegant. -My younger sister looked beautiful, the makeup and products that were used kept her looking fresh and were not heavy at all on her skin. -I had a very specific "natural but with a glow" look I was going for, and Paulina made sure I was loving it every step of the way (giving me the mirror, stopping and making sure I am happy). She put flowers in my hair, and when I looked in the mirror it was just perfect. Thank you so so much! -

Liz was absolutely great! She created 5 different beautiful hair styles for my wedding day. Not only were her hair styles great, she was so sweet to work with. -
Dorothy Sent on 08/22/2018I love Beauty Icon! I have been working with Liz for the past few months preparing for my wedding in Brooklyn NY and it has been an absolute pleasure to work with her. With a busy work schedule, it feels like wedding planning is a 2nd job but with vendors like Liz who are extremely talented, communicative, thoughtful, and professional, it was honestly one of the best decisions I could have made for my wedding day. You will not regret booking any service, from helping you on your wedding day or if you just want to pamper yourself. I will definitely be calling on Liz again in the future!
On my wedding day, Liz and Paulina showed up punctually on time super early in the morning since I had a brunch reception. They knocked it out of the park! With 7 women, they completed everything early for photos and even jumped in last minute to do make up for 2 of my party! Everyone loved their hair and make up
I can't thank Liz and Paulina enough for their awesome work, fun attitudes, and ability to jump in last minute and make it all work! Also, I can't rave about my hair enough...if I could wear that hair everyday I totally would! Thank you so much for everything Liz and Paulina! -
