    Made me fee so beautiful on my wedding Day

    Maria was very professional and great! From the moment I first talked with her I felt a connection. She was recommended to me by a friend who she did her bridal teams make up. She was great and all my girls loved their makeup the day of. Even through all the sweating of the sun at our Beach wedding it lasted. I cant thank her enough!

    Outstanding Quality and Service

    Book Faceworks International!! Maria and Margie turned me into a princess. I received so many compliments on my hair and makeup that day. My father told me I looked the most beautiful I have ever looked.
    Maria and Margie were so accommodating to the changes in my schedule due to COVID and I could not have been happier with the process.

    Miracle worker!

    Maria did my makeup for my engagement shoot, and I couldn't have asked for anything better. She really puts you first and wants to get your vision right! We went back and forth with makeup ideas a few weeks before the shoot, and she got the overall look spot on. I usually feel like I get drained out when I get my makeup done, but Maria gave me that dewey glow I always aim for! Thank you, Maria, for your makeup magic and kindness!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    So kind of you to write this review right after your shoot and without a request from me.
    Thank you so much Ali, please stay in touch and let me know if I can ever be of service to you again ! :D

    Beautiful in every way!

    Maria and her artists at Faceworks International were fabulous to work with. They were especially wonderful through this uncertain time and the postponement of our first wedding. We felt very safe and comfortable working with the staff and were briefed on all info and protocols in advance to our small wedding. I have never felt more beautiful than I did that day, with my hair and make up done by Maria! My now husband told me he would never forget how I looked that day.

    Fantastic stylist, super accommodating and talented

    Working with Maria was such a wonderful experience. She was very flexible on everything from the trial dates to the wedding day itself, responsive when my wife and I wanted to make changes to our look, add in bridesmaids, my sisters, etc, and was just a wonderful personality to have around on my wedding day. Both my wife and I got exactly the hair and makeup styling we wanted and felt beautiful! Can't recommend her enough, 11/10 stars!

    Thank you SO MUCH Cara! Love all of you so much !

    Maria is amazing, supportive, and creative!

    Maria did my sisters makeup for her wedding when she got married in Florida. After I got engaged, I struggled to find a makeup artist. I don’t wear makeup and didn’t know what I wanted. However, when we realized that Maria is now in NYC , it was a no brainer!

    Maria came to my apartment for the trial and really worked with me to find the look I wanted. She and Kasia were a dream to work with, ensuring everyone of my bridesmaids, mother, and in laws felt and looked their best. Maria even stayed through the beginning of the reception to add a pop and makeup change!

    Here are some photos, note the red lip and pop of gold for the reception!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    Katie,
    Thank you so much. I adore you and the ladies in your family so much. It was a pleasure to work with your sister and am honored to be hired again for another special occasion.,
    You were such a happy bride!

    My wedding was small, religious and romantic and Maria was teh perfect person to do my H&M that fitted with my special day. She is extremely professional, charming and flexible. My wedding team also loved her.

    Wedding on 8/30/2019

    Maria and her team are wonderful! She did the hair and makeup for my sister’s wedding, which is why I decided to go with her again for my own wedding. She traveled to me for the trial, my bridal shower hair and makeup, and for the wedding. Her prices are very reasonable and she is so much fun to be around. It also makes it so easy that she does both hair and makeup. Even at the end of the night, my hair and makeup still looked good. All my bridesmaids, my mother, my mother in law, and myself got both hair and makeup done by Maria and her team. Everyone was very happy with the results!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    My darling Nicole,
    How I love your family! Thanks so much for having me back for another celebration. Here is to many more !
    Much Love,
    Maria

    Great experience!

    Marie and Melissa did a great job on my hair and make-up. Marie and Melisa is very professional, on time, responsive and passionate about their works. While Marie is located in queens, she is very flexible and willing to travel all the way to Westchester for my wedding without additional cost. I highly suggest doing the make-up trial before the wedding to see if the hair and make-up styles fit you. I initially thought i wanted to have an updos half up half down based on the photo i saw from pinterest, but i realized it doesn't fit my face that much after the trial and i changed to an updos all the way up with brighter make-up color on my face on the wedding, and i loved! They also did fantastic job on my mum and all the bridemaids, thank you so much for the wonderful works!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    Fion,
    I want you to know how much I appreciate you taking the time to write this review and post these gorgeous photos. These pics make me SMILE.
    Melissa and I LOVED working with you and everyone in your party.
    I hope we can get together sometime soon. You are an amazing lady!

    Best of the best!

    On one of the most important days of you life, you need someone you can trust. Maria and her team were just that! They truly made me feel like a princess and helped my bridesmaids and family all feel just as beautiful as they all are. Not only is Maria so flexible and personable but she has some of the very best ladies on her team. My hair stayed put from 10 am until 2am! Hands down my best choice in vendor. You will not be disappointed. I get so many complements still that say I should curl my hair more often because it was so stunning! And my face was flawless! If you’re getting married in the NY, NJ or CT area, Faceworks should be your first call. My sister hired Maria and her team six years ago, and when I got engaged, we knew she would be the perfect compliment to my team. She truly made my happily ever after the most magical!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    Kristin,
    I am so grateful to have worked with you and your wonderful family.
    What an honor to have been hired by your sister six years ago and with all of the choices out there, you chose me again!
    I adore you, your sister and mother so much. It’s such a pleasure to spend time with all of you.
    Much love always,
    Maria

    One stop shop for bridal hair and makeup: the white gloved service with a smile!

    Being a new kid on the block after a move to the Queens suburbs, my only resource for help with hair & makeup for my wedding day was the internet. By cheer coincidence I stumbled on Maria and what a blessing and amazing find this proved to be! This lady is not only a hair and makeup wizard, she also comes with a radiant personality which makes for a very relaxed and fun experience. Maria brought her studio into my house and transformed my mom, cousin, young daughter and I into starlets all at an unbeatable price that is worth every penny. Maria and I met up twice, for a hair and makeup trial and on my wedding day. She also gave me a spray tan, shaped my eye brows and enhanced my eye lashes. I usually do not have time for reviews but in this case I really want to give any ladies amongst you, who -like me- are a little nervous about taking a chance, some serious peace of mind. You cannot go wrong with Maria and you won’t be disappointed. Take this from somebody with pretty high standards and expectations.

    Faceworks International's reply:

    Hilde,
    I felt like a made a friend the day that I met and am so fortunate to have worked with you.
    We must get together soon. You are a wonderful person!
    XOXO

    Great, attentive, and caring service

    Maria is so sweet and attentive. She has amazing makeup and hair skills. She made me such a beautiful bride in my wedding day! She is flexible and accommodative in the style. She is also pretty affordable compare to other make up artists in the city. She has all the tools you need and one should definitely arrange a makeup trial with her! I highly recommend Maria for make up and hair in any events!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    So Sweet Katy!
    You and your groom were the best! I appreciate your referral too but was sad to hear that you moved away from us.

    Made my beach wedding day so much better!

    Adela from Beautiful Brides of the Florida Keys was on time and very professional. We were in the middle keys in Marathon, Florida, and she traveled to us. My hair and makeup turned out perfect, as well as our 3 bridesmaids and flower girl. We were able to enjoy the big day, without having to fuss with hair and makeup. Thank you!

    Faceworks International's reply:

    You look GORGEOUS Brie!
    I knew you would love Adela:))) One day perhaps we will meet in person as well.
    Thank you for trusting in me from just a phone call/conversations.

    Flexible and friendly

    Maria did a great job with our hair and makeup for my October wedding. She was very flexible coming to my home for the trial and accommodated a last-minute request to do my sister-in-law's hair/makeup with a smile. She and her assistant were very sweet and encouraging and I thought we all looked great!

    Bridal Makeup

    Maria and her team were a dream! The biggest day of my life and I felt and looked like a princess because of them! Maria did my hair and makeup , and it came out exactly as we discussed during the trial! Her staff worked super efficiently with my bridal party and everyone loved their looks too. Maria’s 20+ years of experience was very evident. She was not just super professional but also had everything in her kit - even airbrush!!!!! (Hello J.Lo glow!)
    My husband was obsessed with how I looked which made every dollar worth it ;) .
    I shopped around for a long time and Maria was hands down the best choice around......
    She took the time to really pay attention to details and never made me feel rushed or stressed. I just love her and can’t wait to hire her for all of the big occasions coming up in my life!

    I just got married (January 12, 2018) and I had the privilege of working with Maria. First of all let me tell you I looked everywhere for a hair and makeup artist that had an affotable price and was professional (which in South FL can be very hard to find). Maria went to my home in order to do the the trial. She did it exactly how I wanted, it was perfect! She kept in touch on a regular basis confirming time and venue for the location where she would be doing my hair and make up on the wedding day. On the wedding day she arrived on time and the hair and make up was spot on just like the trial, if I could give her 10 stars I would! Maria is very friendly and flexible with time. Thank you so much for the service Maria I loved how everything turned out!! I hope to work with her on the future!

    This is one of the nicest reviews I have ever received. I am so happy that you can tell how much I care about you , and how passionate I am about my work.
    When I leave and my client feels this way, it warms my heart.
    Much love,
    Maria

    Maria is so wonderful to work with, and her team did an excellent job on hair and makeup for the bridal party. Everyone looked beautiful heading to the church. Our hair and makeup held up very well all day, even in the Florida heat. Would definitely recommend Maria!
