    She was amazing

    Ladies BOOK her! You will not regret it. She did a phenomenal job on my makeup. I had a black eye, she did her magic and you would’ve never known. That is true talent. She was incredibly kind and friendly. At the end of our session she had asked if I wanted anything fixed. Of course I didn’t because my makeup looked PHENOMENAL but that shows how much she cares about her clients happiness. Holly was the best! 10/10 recommend. If I ever need my make up professionally done in the future I’d 10000% go back to Holly.

    Amazing talent! I would recommend her to anyone!

    Very affordable and responsive. I was unable to do a trial since I live out of state and was just there for the wedding so I was a little nervous but she absolutely nailed it! I looked so beautiful and she accomplished the look I wanted beautifully. I would recommend her to anyone needing makeup done for a wedding or event.

    Great makeup artist - local hidden gem

    Holly is a fantastic and talented makeup artist! She was helpful but not intrusive and made the experience easy from start to finish. I plan on using her for all my events.

    Bar Mitzvah makeup

    Holly did makeup for me and my two daughters. She applied age appropriate make up for the girls and made them feel comfortable and beautiful. I received many compliments on my makeup and was glad I stepped out of my comfort zone to get a little glam!

    Holly is the BEST!!

    I feel so lucky to have had Holly as my makeup artist. We got to know each other through exercise classes and it was just fantastic that she happened to be the perfect makeup artist too! She was so flexible with her schedule to make sure I would be able to use my trial makeup for my bridal shower. Also I had to change the time last minute for my wedding day and she did it with no questions asked. All my bridesmaids, mom and me felt so beautiful. I love having my freckles out and she can do a perfect mix of natural makeup and glam. She also made sure my eyelash extensions were perfect even if it meant changing them out for new ones. It was also such a sweet touch to get a little makeup touch up kit. You will not regret booking Holly, my makeup even survived the dance floor!

    Incredible work!

    I cannot recommend Holly enough! This was my first time getting makeup professionally done and she made it such an easy experience for my wedding. She is very responsive, incredibly talented and knowledgeable in her craft. It is clear she loves what she does. She has such a wonderful personality and my bridal party absolutely loved her. The bridesmaids all had different preferences and Holly was able to create a look for each of them that they loved and felt comfortable in. It rained on my wedding day and the makeup still looked as beautiful at the end of the day compared to the morning of. I can't thank her enough for being a part of making my wedding day so special - I will definitely be using her services again!

    Holly was so responsive to a last-minute request

    Holly was so responsive and willing to help me out as mother of the groom in a last-minute situation. She listened to my concerns and she did a fabulous job. She had another event later on that day, but was willing to help me out early in the morning and I am so appreciative. She also did my out-of-town daughter who happened to be staying with me for the wedding. She was fun to work with and kept us laughing throughout. I highly recommend her.

    Amazing Wedding Makeup

    Holly did makeup for me (bride), my mom, and my bridesmaids on Oct 14th at Hotel Bethlehem. I am not usually someone comfortable with heavy makeup, but Holly was able to make it look so natural on me and keeping me comfortable while also making sure the glam of it all showed up in photos. I felt so beautiful and everyone around me also looked incredible. I loved that she was able to cater to all of my bridesmaid's requests since all of their requests varied slightly across person to person. Would absolutely recommend!!

    Exceeded expectations

    Holly was wonderful to work with. Everyone who had their makeup done (myself included) does not wear a lot of makeup usually, but Holly made everyone feel comfortable and listened to what they wanted for the day. Holly was communicative, efficient, and timely - I was grateful to have her as my makeup artist on my wedding day!

    Amazing experience with Holly

    Had such an amazing experience with Holly! From beginning to end she was great with communication and professionalism. She did such an amazing job on everyone’s makeup, she nailed my look I was going for! For me, the best part besides her work was her personality! She’s very personable and easy to talk to, which helps when you’re full of butterflies on your big day. Would definitely recommend Holly for your big day!

    Excellent Experience!

    Holly was so great to work with. She is so personable and professional. She even made sure to arrive early at the venue to assure there would be enough time to accommodate everyone with the tight timeline. She made me feel beautiful and like myself on my wedding day. As someone who doesn’t wear a lot of makeup, Holly made me feel natural without feeling too done up. My bridesmaids, mom, and mother in law all loved working with her. I would recommend Holly to anyone!!

    Flawless in every which way

    Working with Holly on my wedding day was nothing short of amazing!! I’ve never felt more comfortable and at ease with a makeup artist. She truly is incredible and every bridesmaid, MOB, and myself felt stunning in our makeup. We were raving all night about it and truly felt like princesses. If you are looking for natural, yet beautiful makeup to elevate your already gorgeous self, don’t look any further because Holly is your girl. I couldn’t recommend Holly enough to anyone and I look forward to using her again in the future.

    Fantastic, Personable and Professional

    Holly was absolutely fantastic! She was super easy to work with, personable and accommodated everyone in my bridal party as well as both mother. She did a total of 8 people’s makeup in no time and everyone was thrilled with how they looked. From the trail to the day of she was great and my makeup stayed all day! I loved working with her and would call her if I ever need makeup again!

    Thank you, Holly

    Holly was wonderful to work with for my December 2022 wedding. She is professional, personable, and a talented makeup artist. Everyone's makeup looked amazing, with a natural and soft look. The makeup lasted all afternoon/evening (over 7 hours) with lots of dancing. I would highly recommend Holly and plan to use her again in the future.

    I worked with Holly on makeup for my mom, my aunt, and I. She really caters very well to different ages, skin requirements and really draws out the best of your features.

    Absolutely amazing

    Holly was every bit of amazing during the process of preparing for my wedding as well as through the makeup trial. She was patient with me and all of my bridesmaids extremely caring and understanding gave us tips on keeping our make up looking its best. She was an absolute delight to work with very clear and honest. I will be reaching out to her again for any future events that I may have!

    Thank you for everything Holly

    Bridal party makeup

    Holly was excellent in every way! She is very easy to work with and communicates well ahead of your wedding day. My entire bridal party loved her and how she did their makeup. She is so sweet and the makeup accentuated everyone’s natural beauty. The makeup looks wonderful and lasted all night with no touch ups needed. Would recommend her to everyone!

    Great experience with Holly

    Holly did my makeup as well as my maid of honor and mother in law’s for my wedding. We were all impressed with the quality of the products she used, the application and the wonderful results! She was completely professional but fun and made getting ready for the wedding less stressful and more enjoyable. I’d use her for any special event and recommend her highly!

    Holly is completely amazing!!

    I had to move my wedding up because my mom had terminal cancer and the doctors didn’t think she would make my original wedding date. I called so many makeup artists. Some of them didn’t respond very quickly or they were booked. Holly responded quickly and despite a vacation she was able to meet my timing. I couldn’t believe it. As a fellow New Yorker we bonded quickly. She is so sweet and understanding. She did the trial for my bridal shower (with only a week’s notice) and she nailed my makeup in one try. She listened to what I was looking for and was able to use her amazing talent and get it right the first time. I tried the fake lashes for the first time in my life and she walked me through it. She also did a trial for my sister and my mother and they loved it. Amazing attention to detail. Then she followed up for my wedding before I could. The wedding day went perfectly. My girls and I looked absolutely stunning. She personalized everyone’s makeup and when we asked to fix something she was more than happy to oblige. She made getting ready fun and she worked great with our hair stylists. Also the day of my wedding, my mom wasn’t able to do makeup. She was too weak and Holly was completely understanding despite me feeling so bad about it. The price was perfect as well. I would rate her 10/10 for all of your makeup needs.

    We had a fantastic experience choosing Holly!

    Holly did the make up for my daughter’s prom. She was able to give us an appointment two weeks before the event and planned around several unexpected obstacles we were faced with. Holly is very personable, and my daughter absolutely loved her. We give Holly the highest recommendation for flexibility, professionalism, experience, and customer service! We will be using her services again!

    Amazing all around!!

    Holly was an absolute joy to work with on my wedding day and I could not have imagined going with any other make up artist! From the beginning she was extremely flexible and attentive in scheduling the trial, and was very patient and helpful during the trial to make sure it was perfect for my actual wedding day. As someone who generally does not wear much make-up I was very particular in my wedding day look and she could not have done a better job. She did a great job on all of the bridesmaids as well, making the whole look cohesive while making sure every girl was happy!

    Simply the best make up!

    Holly was simply amazing! She went above and beyond what anyone could ever hope for bridal make up! She is so professional and felxible that working with her
    was such a relief. Planning a wedding from out of state was stressful, but Holly was by far the easiest vendor to coordinate with. And of course, we all
    looked absolutely stunning for my big day! She made sure that everyone was comfortable with their make up, and really catered to each one's personal
    preference. She's timely, professional, clean and the sweetest! I would 10/10 recommend using Holly for any make up needs :)

    Holly was amazing and responsive from the first contact, to the consultation, to the wedding day. Her makeup is natural and beautiful. She did the makeup for my bridesmaids and my mother as well, and we all turned out better than we ever expected. I would absolutely recommend Holly for your next event. Thank you Holly!

    I cannot recommend Holly enough!!

    Holly is AMAZING! First, she is the kindest person ever! I so enjoyed getting to know her and chatting with her every single time! I did a trial and she absolutely nailed it! I tested my makeup at an outside picnic in July and my makeup looked flawless afterwards. Holly is so detailed and followed up before the wedding before I could even reach out. The day of she was fabulous! She did such a beautiful job on all of my ladies and was so fun to get ready with! My makeup came out gorgeous again and didn’t move at all! And it photographed beautifully!!!! I cannot recommend Holly more!! Thank you so much for everything Holly!

    Flexible, Personable, Professional!

    Holly is awesome! She is so flexible and personable. Her pricing is extremely competitive and her work is fantastic. She was able to get through myself (bride), a mom, and 5 bridesmaid with plenty of time to relax before photos. She is so professional and I highly recommend booking her for your wedding!!

    Perfection with Ease!!!

    Holly is so amazing, from the second she walked into the room I knew I could relax because she was easy going and down to earth. I requested a look to make my eyes pop, and boy did she nail it without caking on the layers of makeup. My look got rave reviews from my husband who doesn't like any makeup at all!!! If you're looking for someone to trust on your wedding day or just a special occasion where you want to stand out from the crowd, get Holly!!!

    A-ma-zing!

    Holly did makeup on-site for my mother and I for my wedding! She came SO prepared with her own chair and everything!
    She is an absolute sweetheart - very kind and chipper!
    Holly did a spectacular job! My makeup looked amazing - I felt beautiful and confident the whole night through!
    I cannot praise her enough!!!!

    Gorgeous Wedding Makeup

    Holly is amazing! I met Holly when she was doing the bridesmaids' makeup at my best friend's wedding. I felt absolutely beautiful that night, so when I got engaged I tracked her down so that I could feel just as beautiful for my own wedding. Somehow, she outdid herself! She knows how bring out your best features, and she listens to your ideas and vision. She did ten peoples' makeup the day of my wedding, and she was right on time and still able to touch up lashes and lipsticks. All of my bridesmaids loved their makeup, and they loved how friendly and easy-to-work with Holly is! I highly recommend her!

    Better than I could have hoped for!

    I was a busy, out of town Bride. Holly was incredibly supportive and reassured me that we'll get it right on the wedding day since we couldn't do a trial. She listened to exactly what I wanted and my make up looked better than I could have hoped for! She did make up for 10 people that day and everyone looked incredible. My recommendation: stop looking and hire Holly!

    Perfect Make-Up Artist

    Holly was the perfect choice for my make-up needs for my wedding! She was so amazing that she didn’t hesitate to change time, venue, and my needs when COVID hit and I had to re-arrange my entire wedding; she even traveled further than our contract initially stated. Holly also made us feel safe and went above and beyond with cleaning procedures. Plus at the end of the day, I felt like the most beautiful bride. My makeup even stayed perfect after we got stuck in a major thunderstorm!! Holly was so sweet and kind, I could not have been happier!

    Best makeup artist!

    I met Holly when she did my makeup for my cousin's wedding and I knew I just had to have her for my own wedding a year later. I remember asking her at my cousin's wedding if she was available on my wedding date and she said she was and to reach out to her. A couple of weeks went by and because of my job I had completely forgot to email her to book her for my wedding. She had been asked to work the same day as my wedding by another bride but reached out to me first to see if I still needed someone--that was so thoughtful of her and I would have been so upset if I had missed her! Holly is so professional and friendly. It was nice to have her by my side as I got ready and treated my bridesmaids and me like one of her girlfriends. Our makeup turned out amazing and looked great in my professional photos. She knows how to pick colors that compliment every different person's skin tone and features. She was prompt and made sure everyone was finished on time...she had 8 bridesmaids, 1 bride and 2 moms to do makeup for and every one of us looked beautiful. I cannot thank Holly enough for all she did for me and my bridesmaids. I would highly recommend and can't wait for another event so that I can have her do my makeup again ! :)

    Holly is an expert in her field!

    I recently started my own business and needed some headshots for my site. I wanted to look my best but I'm clueless with doing my makeup. I was so relieved I found Holly! I was nervous that I wouldn't be comfortable with having professional makeup done but I was so wrong. I felt amazing! This was a last minute thing since I was being squeezed in by my photographer and Holly was extremely accommodating. I have and will continue to recommend Holly to anyone and everyone!

    Thank you, Thank you, Thank you

    I cannot begin to say how amazing you were on our special day. Your professionalism made the day less stressful and smoother. My mom (as a first timer haha) loves having her makeup done and felt “extra special”. Thank you so very much for making us feel as if you were a friend who was just coming to hangout and happens to have a ridiculous skill at making women feel their absolute best!

    Holly was very professional and patient with my daughter. My daughter was 16 and very nervous about having her make up done. She absolutely loved it.

    We loved how flexible Holly was and how she came to the house. My daughter loved her makeup and so did her friends. Wasn’t too much and didn’t look fake. Very natural.

    When big name salons fail, Holly is your gal!

    Holly was amazing to have as I found her semi last minute when a salon couldn't get their act together to fulfill my request. Holly came to my hotel room and got me and my girls together quick and efficiently. She made me look amazing for my big day!

    Hire Holly NOW

    Holly did my makeup on a Saturday- June 15th. She was incredible. I felt and looked gorgeous! I loved the natural look she gave me. I didn’t look like someone else on my wedding day. My girls all looked beautiful! Everyone was so happy with their makeup! Her prices are extremely reasonable. She worked within the time frame and finished early. She not only does great work, but she also is a genuinely nice person. She makes great conversations and tries to actually know her clients. You aren’t a stranger to her. I recommend everyone to use her for your wedding day and it will be one less thing to worry about it! She will handle it all! Thanks again Holly!

    Excellent!

    Holly was professional. She understood me and took in to consideration my preferences and style. She transformed me Into being elegant for a special event! She also accommodated allowing my twin teenage daughters to accompany me during the session. She made the session a friendly and family oriented time that we shared together.

    Great Experience - Will recommend in the Future

    Holly did such a great job of doing makeup for my wedding party, mother and, of course, myself. Before meeting her, I was nervous about someone who didn’t know me (or my skin) doing my makeup for one of the biggest days of my life. However, Holly was great at easing my concerns during my makeup trial and she certainly delivered on my wedding day. Thank you very much, Holly!!

    Everyone loved Holly!!

    I hired Holly to do my make-up for my wedding as well as the bridal party's. She was phenomenal. So professional and does incredible work. From the start when I went for my trial she made me feel so comfortable and her years of experience and expertise really showed. Everyone in my bridal party were so pleased with her work and how easy she was to talk to. She made me feel so comfortable and gorgeous on my wedding day. I would recommend Holly to anyone!!

    Working with Holly was one of the best parts of our wedding process. She was professional, but friendly and confident but also listened to what I wanted as well. From the minute she responded to my first email, Holly was just great. She was a warm and calming presence on my wedding day and we got compliments on our makeup all night. I could not recommend her any higher!

    Look No further - Holly is the One for you!

    Holly did the makeup for my daughter and the entire wedding party, including the mother of the bride. She was absolutely wonderful and turned us all into stunning women. We had so many compliments about how beautiful we all looked. Holly made me (the mother of the bride) look and feel gorgeous! If you are in need of someone to do your make up - you will not go wrong with Holly. She applied just the right amount of makeup! In fact, she did such a great job that I will be contacting her for a class to teach a few of us how to apply makeup so professionally.

    Makeup for Wedding

    Holly was amazing to work with from the very beginning (from first contact/trial) allthe eay to our big day!

    We had 2 moms, 9 bridemaids and 1 bride. While we had to start a little early (do to sheer numbers) we at no time felt rushed or hurried.

    Holly did a great job providing everyone with what they wanted (specifically girls who don’t usually wear much make up) and we all looked fabulous!

    I found Holly while perusing another brides photoson Instagram and immediately got in contact!

    She was also a great presence/ sense of humor to have with us all while we were getting ready - so thank you! I would highly recommend her to any bride!

    Amazing and affordable makeup artist

    Holly was amazing to work with! She did my makeup for my November 9th wedding, and I couldn’t be happier with how it turned out. From scheduling the bridal trial to coming to do makeup on-site the day of the wedding, it was a completely stress-free experience and she was so fun to work with as well. She also did my mom’s makeup, and the makeup for two of the girls in my bridal party on-site. All of them looked stunning. I can’t even begin to count how many compliments I received on my makeup during our wedding. Also, one very important detail that I was most concerned with: it stayed in place all the way to the end. Through happy tears, sweat, dinner, and dancing - my makeup looked fresh at the end of the night and I felt like a million bucks. I would recommend her to everyone!

    Holly is the best!

    Holly is incredible! It was such a pleasure working with Holly and I would highly recommend her for whatever your make up needs are!

    She was very efficient and organized which made everything go so smoothly. She is also so friendly and has such a wonderful energy about her it was so wonderful to have her be a part of our big day.

    When I did my trial my sister in law came along and was so blown away by Holly and her skills and Holly was so kind to answer make-up questions that my sister in law had while watching her.

    On my wedding day, Holly did fantastic work. We all looked and felt so beautiful! My make-up was exactly they way I wanted it. And my girls looked gorgeous! Thank you Holly for everything! 10/10 would recommend!

    Holly was absolutely amazing! Not only did she listen to how I had asked for my make up to be on my wedding day, as well as all 7 of my bridesmaids, and even put a little lipstick on my flower girl. As you know, or are about to find out, being a bride is extremely stressful, especially the closer you get to your wedding day, but Holly brought comfort as well as humor to make getting ready a breeze and fun! It was very obvious that she not only knew the product and what she was doing but was confident in what she does. There is no one else I would've trusted to do my make up on my wedding day, and you shouldn't hesitate to hire her either!

    Holly was absolutely amazing on my wedding day. She made everyone look stunning (and quickly)! She was amazing with time managment and making sure everyone loved their look and felt comfortable in their makeup. She's so friendly and knowledgeable. She even gave one of my sister in laws make up tips for her skin. My hair stylist was running behind and Holly was completely done with everyone but me, but had no issues waiting around for me so she could do my makeup. She had such a positive and happy demeanor the whole day and everyone absolutely loved her. I honestly couldn't have picked a better make-up artist.

    Holly was recommended to me by my friend and hairdresser; and I am so thankful that she was! Holly dealt with a lot in regards to me and my wedding party. First, she had to drive in and schedule time to do 10 girls on the day of my wedding all before a 2pm ceremony! (She did so with seemingly ease!) Then in addition, she had to work from scratch as I am constantly traveling and we could not find time to do a trial. Lastly, I wanted to wear eyelashes but my eyes are too sensitive. Holly found super light ones to try, but I still cried them off immediately. Holly didn't give up on me, and needless to say, we finally got them to stay. She stuck with it and then continued to make me look my best even though I had basically cried all my makeup off and was stressing out about timing! She was beyond accommodating as I added two adults after the fact, and could not have been more kind and open to the suggestions all my girls had. My wedding was back in February, and my bridesmaids are still raving about how gorgeous they felt! Thank you Holly!!

    Holly was amazing. She did the makeup for 7 of us on my wedding day. She came to the hotel we were staying at so we didn't even have to leave the comfort of our hotel suite to become beautiful. My favorite things about Holly were how much she listened and accommodated to what each bridesmaid/mother/aunt wanted. Everyone looked so gorgeous, we were getting compliments all day!

    Holly, was such and amazing make up artist. I am one to not go over board with make up and she did exactly what I liked. She was very easy to work with and was willing to change anything if you didn’t like it. She always kept in contact with me and was flexible with my schedule. Her make up was phenomenal, my wedding was outdoor in the middle of September on one of the hottest days there could have been and my make up looked great all day long!!!! I would recommend her any day!

    Holly was amazing to work with. She did a great job with me and all of my bridesmaids. My makeup lasted all night long and didn’t rub off on any of the many white shirts I hugged that day! Thanks again Holly!!! ❤️

    I discovered Holly when I was a bridesmaid for my friend’s wedding. After seeing what she did with my make-up as a bridesmaid, I knew that I wanted to have her do my make-up for my wedding too. Having a make-up allergy, I was extremely nervous about having it done for my big day. Holly was very re-assuring and actually used my make-up the day of the wedding to make sure I felt as comfortable as possible. She also did the make-up for all of my bridesmaids and mom using her make-up. Everyone looked and felt so beautiful! I would highly recommend her to any bride!

    Holly was absolutely amazing to work with. She listened to exactly what I wanted and made me feel beautiful on my wedding day. My bridesmaids and I got ready downtown, and it made it so easy since she came to us. It was one less thing to have to worry about.
    She was very professional, and I couldn't have asked for better service.

    Holly is amazing at what she does!! She did the makeup for me, my 5 bridesmaids, and my mom in the end of July and we all looked flawless all day long!! I went to the trial at her house, and I am not someone who wears makeup so I was nervous, and I looked amazing! Then the day of, it only looked better!! All the girls loved their looks!! I think four of us also did fake lashes, and they looked amazing and were completely comfortable! She is a pro at what she does! Also, I did not count my mom in for getting her makeup done, but all of the sudden she was like yeah, I want my makeup done (my mom never wears makeup either so I was shocked). Holly fit my mom in no problem after all the girls were ready. I highly recommend her for all your wedding (or other occasion) makeup needs!! I am sad that she is moving to PA now, but you PA wedding parties are lucky!!

    I would encourage anyone who is looking for a professional make up artist to book Holly! She did my makeup for my wedding along with two of my bridesmaids and my grandmother. She had done my best friends make up for her wedding about 2 years ago and when I went in for the trial she still remembered her! It just shows what a top notch person she is. She was very easy to get ahold of and always responded to any questions or inquiries promptly.
    I don't wear a lot of makeup and I was a little nervous as I had never had my make up professionally done before. At the trial she made me feel completely at ease and not to mention beautiful ;) It was exactly what I was looking for. She was very flexible with the trial as well. I am currently living in Maryland but got married in Buffalo so she was able to accommodate to my schedule of when I would be in town.
    The day of the wedding she showed up on time and ready to work. She was fun but still professional. And she was so sweet to squeeze in two of my bridesmaids who decided last minute that they wanted their make up done too. I was so so happy with the way my make up turned out and made my day absolutely perfect <3

    Holly was an absolute pleasure to work with. Holly did my makeup, my mothers, and both my maid and matron of honors make up for my wedding. She responded right away to my email about setting up a trial. The day of the wedding she showed up on time and ready to work! All the girls and I were impressed with her work! I typically don't wear a lot of make up so I was nervous and unsure about how to do my makeup for the day of my wedding. But Holly assured me she would make me look natural and beautiful. Which she did:) She exceeded all my expectations and made my girls and I feel so beautiful. I can't say enough nice and positive things about her as a person and as a makeup artist! I would recommend her to all my friends and will definitely be a reoccurring client!

    Holly was an absolute pleasure to work with. She listened carefully to what look I wanted and perfectly executed my vision. She arrived right as scheduled and finished with time to spare, yet I never felt rushed. Holly's time management and and attention to detail makes her a wonderful make-up artist. Someday when I become a rich and famous celebrity she will definitely be my go to make-up artist! - Alissa

    Holly did the makeup for my wedding and she is amazing at what she does!! Myself and all of my girls looked absolutely beautiful! I actually saw her work through wedding wire and loved it. I reached out to her and she got back to me that same day to make an appointment for a trial. She is such a sweet person and very professional. She works with you so that you get the exact look you were working for and her price is very reasonable. She also came to my house on the day of the wedding which was great. I had a decent sized wedding party and she made sure that every girl was ready and looking good with no problem at all!! I highly reccomed that any bride use Holly for your special day. She will help to make you feel and look stunning just like every bride should :)

    I was initially drawn to Holly's work through her before and after pictures of her trial makeup sessions; I was very impressed. She was very timely in her responsiveness and her pricing was great, with no minimum requirement of faces or money spent, which was very important for me since there were only three of us getting our makeup done.

    I scheduled my trial with Holly for the night of my bachelorette party. I had a pretty good feeling going in I would like what she did with my makeup, but as soon as I met her I knew I made the right decision. Holly has a great personality and I felt at ease with her right away. She listened to what I liked, what I didn't, and all the details of the wedding before making any suggestions. The trial went great and I booked her right then. I got so many compliments that night about how natural and beautiful the makeup was.

    The day of the wedding, Holly came to the Webb to get us ready. She was very understanding of my mom's sensitivity to certain makeup, and managed to instill the right amount of confidence in my sister to try things she'd never done before with makeup, which she ended up loving. I loved what Holly did with my makeup again and, even though she told me it would, I was so impressed that it lasted the entire day.I have always struggled with my daily makeup lasting through an entire work day, so I had my doubts.

    Long story short, I highly recommend Holly. If you're looking for a glamorous but natural look for your wedding day, you don't need to look any further, you've found your artist.

    Holly was so easy to work with and you can tell she has a passion for was she does. Her prices were very reasonable and she did a beautiful job. She was able to come to the hotel where we were getting ready which was a must for me as I didn't want to be running around to different places on the Big Day!

    I can't begin to tell you how many make up trials I suffered through before I found Holly. Everyone and their brother claims (on all of the Buffalo Wedding forums) that they can do wedding make-up, and that simply is not the truth! Thankfully, my cousin (also a Buffalo Bride) found Holly and posted her before and after shots online. She looked absolutely gorgeous. I immediately contacted Holly via facebook to see if she had my date available. The stars were aligned, she did. We scheduled a time to do a trial at Holly's home. It was easy to find and very clean. Holly is so very skilled at her craft. She is professional, kind, knowledgeable, and a blast to work with! Brushes were sanitized and one time use applicators were used. At the end of the trial, she provides you with a list of MAC make-up for you to purchase for touch ups. Holly was willing to travel to my venue (the Hidden Valley Animal Adventure). She was punctual, helped me relax and made me look stunning! I recommend Holly for all brides and those who want to look their best for an evening out on the town... Look no further, the best in Buffalo is Makeup by Holly.

    I have used Holly as a gift for my girlfriend on her day and again for my own wedding day. I have recommended her to friends of mine on their big days and everyone who has used her, have raved about her. She is so easy to work with and helps you achieve the look you want. When looking for make-up vendors she was perfectly affordable for my budget. My entire wedding party used her make-up and lash services.

    I am a makeup enthusiast, and very particular about how I do my makeup, so I was EXTREMELY nervous about booking a professional makeup artist for my wedding day. I knew I wanted to alleviate the stress of having to do my own makeup on my big day, but I was so scared that my makeup wouldn't look exactly how I wanted it to. After combing through many portfolios on WeddingWire, I stumbled across Holly's and felt that she would be my best bet. Thankfully, I was right... and she completely blew my expectations out of the water! The look we came up with at my trial was absolutely perfect and matched my vision completely. I was so nervous before the trial, and when I left, I was SO happy. Everything went just as well on my wedding day. All my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law were so happy with how their makeup turned out for the wedding. Plus, Holly has a wonderful personality and is so much fun to be around. And her prices are extremely reasonable! I highly, highly recommend her to anyone seeking makeup services for their wedding!

    Holly was absolutely amazing. I actually found her after she did our makeup for my brothers wedding, and for both my brothers wedding and my wedding it was absolutely gorgeous. Anything you would ask her to do she would do or give you options of what would look better on yourself and in photos. We set a time for her to come over to start makeup for my girls and she was right on time and had us done on time as well. She coordinated with my hairstylist as well to make sure i had enough time to dress and take pictures before we left for our ceremony.

    Holly was absolutely amazing!!! The original make up artist I had booked for months completely flaked out on me just weeks before the wedding. I was so thankful Holly saved the day and was willing to work with me in a pinch. My wedding was in Buffalo NY but I currently live in Fredericksburg VA and she was so great at communicating with me and accommodating to my schedule once I got back in town to set up a trial and everything. She did an incredible job on my make up and my bridesmaids were all super happy with theirs also. If you're considering booking Holly for your wedding, seriously just do it - she's great!!

    I have nothing but wonderful things to say about Holly! She was so easy to work with, extremely flexible, and very understanding. She listened to exactly what I wanted for my wedding makeup was was accommodating when I asked her to change or modify something about my look. I did a trial with her at a time that was convenient for my schedule, she showed up on time the morning of my wedding, and she was extremely flexible as she was doing everyone's makeup. I recommend her to anyone in Buffalo who is looking for a makeup artist, I would give her 10 stars if I could.

    Holly was my makeup artist for my engagement photos, bridal shower (wedding trial), and my wedding. Throughout the whole process, Holly was professional and beyond accommodating. She was responsive and made great suggestions based on potential photos I showed her for my makeup for each event. She is not only a great makeup artist, but she is easy to talk to. She uses only the best makeup and it stayed on flawlessly for the entire day of each event. While I went with a more drastic look for each event than I typically wear on a normal day - she was still able to make it look natural. My mother was worried about having makeup applied for my wedding since she is older and was unsure how it would look; however, even she was thrilled with Holly's talent. My bridesmaids were also very pleased with their makeup. Holly traveled to us on the day of the wedding, arrived on time, and efficiently got all of our makeup done perfectly with time to spare. I highly recommend Holly!

    Holly was fantastic! She saved me at the last minute (when my original makeup person canceled) and she even made time to give me a trial (on extremely short notice). The day of, my sisters and mother both used her and everyone was so very pleased. She has an amazing talent and an even better personality, I highly recommend!

    Being a Maid of Honor, there is a lot of responsibilities and pressure to play that roll. Having Holly as our makeup artist gave me one less thing to worry and stress about! From the trial, to the actual day of the wedding, Holly provided professional, timely, and flawless work. She is personable and listens to what you want while making suggestions that would only improve your look! I would recommend anyone to Holly and already booked her another wedding! I love working with her and it is clear she loves what she does and has a special talent.

    Holly was absolutely fantastic! She was very flexible and responsive with emails/calls and accommodating on my wedding day. Holly did a makeup trial with me a couple months before the wedding so I could get an idea of what kind of makeup I liked and on the day of my wedding she came to the location where I was getting ready which was so convenient. My bridesmaids and I loved our makeup and I would definitely recommend her, she was wonderful!!

    Holly is so talented and made me feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day! She was one of the few makeup artists I could find that would travel to me at no minimum. Above all, she made me feel so comfortable. I feel like it's so frequent that bridal makeup looks heavy and the bride just doesn't look like herself. Holly isn't like that at all. My makeup was bridal, but still natural. I would recommend her to any future bride!!

    Holly was great! I scheduled a trial before my wedding at her home and she came to my location on my wedding day. She did me and bridesmaids makeup. We were all floored with how beautiful we looked - she did an amazing job! We all looked flawless and the makeup lasted all night. It was a high of 90 that day and my wedding was an outdoor venue with no air conditioning. I would highly recommend Holly for your wedding makeup!

    I found holly on wedding wire and after reading her reviews I knew I had to contact her. I know how important these reviews are for all you future brides and believe me Holly is just fantastic. I met with her for a trial at her house and she came to my location on my day. For someone who doesn't wear a lot of make-up I was very pleased with the results! My day was extremely hot so I'm not sure any make-up would have held all day but what I had lasted for just what I needed it for. Holly offered to do make up for my bridesmaids and my mom and they were also pleased and looked beautiful! Holly was super great and I enjoyed working with her.

    I couldn't be happier with my wedding day makeup. Holly was very understanding that I do not usually wear much makeup and listened to my concerns. It was also very helpful that she came to the location where I was getting ready. My bridal makeup was exactly what I was hoping for - beautiful and natural.

    Holly did an amazing job on my makeup for both my engagement photo session and my wedding day! I felt beautiful, the makeup lasted all day long, and I received many compliments on it! Holly was very responsive and flexible in scheduling my trial and wedding day makeup, which was especially helpful to me as an out-of-town bride. I loved Holly's work, and would highly recommend her! I will be calling her for any other special events for which I need my makeup done -- thank you Holly!

    Holly did my makeup (and my bridesmaids and mothers) for our wedding last August and she was absolutely wonderful! I did a trail run to make sure we were on the same page, and my make up the day of was perfect. It was exactly what I was looking for... a natural, flawless complexion version of myself :) The pictures came out beautifully. My girlfriends and I discussed the next morning how we didn't even want to wash our faces... even after sleeping in the makeup we looked fantastic!! Our wedding was at The Mansion, and Holly came there to do our make up. She's so friendly and easy going, it was great to have her be part of our day! I would recommend her without hesitation!!
