    Marissa was great from first contact to last. She was very helpful and extremely flexible when it came to my trial and my special day. All of my girls were very happy with their services and her knowledge for each individual's needs.

    Marissa and her team were great! She did exactly what I had imagined for my bridesmaids, my mother and mother in law, and I on our wedding day. I got so many compliments, the pictures came out beautifully too. I would highly recommend Marissa and her team for your wedding

    Marissa was great! Super responsive and flexible with our everchanging needs for the Wedding. I, myself, did not personally use her services but had hired her for the other bridesmaids and bride. The bride looked absolutely flawless on her wedding day and from the pictures we've seen and from seeing her in person, she couldn't have looked better.

    Thanks Marissa!

    Marissa was incredibly responsive to my inquiries and in any of my efforts to get ahold of her for scheduling or inquiry purposes. She was great with specific requests, particularly pertaining to my sensitive skin. Marissa expressed the utmost professionalism both during my trial and for my event. She was on time, found us without any issues, kept the on schedule and was so personable and sweet. I would absolutely recommend marissa's services. It was wonderful to have her as a part of my wedding day.

    I can't possibly say enough positive things about Marissa and the amazing job she did for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding! I found her by luck after having a really unpleasant and expensive trial at a different local salon. I was extremely frustrated and decided to start searching for a makeup artists from scratch. When I found and met with Marissa I was so impressed by her talent, her friendly and personable nature, and her prices!!! I was looking for someone who would understand that I didn't want to be a "cookie-cutter" bride on my special day, and Marissa really got that and totally delivered on what I wanted and explained. We initially hired her to do makeup for myself, and two other bridesmaids, but after seeing what a fabulous ob she did for us, the other three bridesmaids asked if she could do their eyes as well, and Marissa happily obliged, even though she hadn't budgeted in time for that! As I mentioned earlier, her prices were so reasonable compared to other artists and salons I had researched and her talent and the quality was unbeatable! Thank you, Marissa for making me shine all that much brighter on my wedding day!

    I had 2 makeup artists flake out on me right before my wedding. I was in a panic and found Marissa off here. She was quick to answer my emails and had time the day of my wedding to do my makeup! She was able to do a practice a few days before it when I had only contacted her within 2 weeks of the wedding. She was professional and did an excellent job listening to what I wanted and created it perfect!! I highly recommend her she was excellent and a life saver for me!!

    Marissa was a delight and pleasure to work with! From the trial to the morning of the wedding, she was fantastic! Extremely prompt if asked any questions prior to the wedding. She would put any bride at ease. I would highly recommend her services. She did a wonderful job and my makeup looked terrific! I could not have been happier. Laurie, hairstylist, was great also! They helped make my wedding day that much better!!

    Marissa is a very talented Makeup artist! I was very impressed when she came to my house for a trial before my wedding; this gave me a chance to experiment with lashes and make a few changes before the 'big day'. On the morning of my wedding I was very comfortable that my makeup would look just as perfect as the trial- if not more beautiful! Not to mention how gorgeous my bridesmaids and mother looked as well!

    I will be recommending Marissa to anyone looking for a professional; affordable makeup application!

    Marissa did my wedding party on June 1st 2013. I wanted more dramatic makeup and marissa told me she specialized in dramatic makeup. She made me look beautiful!! I was surprised because usually makeup artists make me look like a clown, lol. I would definitely recommend Marissa to anyone getting married.

    Marissa was a pleasure to work with. I never wear makeup except for special occasions. She did my makeup for a night out with my husband and did just enough on me so that it looked very natural. I looked like it was something that i wore everyday. I would definitely recommend her to others. Thanks for a job well done!!!!

    Marissa was a pleasure to work with. Coming from someone who never wears makeup except for special occasions she knew just what to do so that it looked very natural. Just enough. I was complimented by several people including my husband. I would definitely recommend her to family and friends. Thanks for a job well done!!!!!

    I hired a makeup artist in Dec 2012 (my wedding was May 25, 2013). She backed out in March. I emailed Marissa in a panic! It ended up being the best thing!!! Marissa was so WONDERFUL to work with. She did all of my bridesmaids, a bunch of family members, both Moms, a few friends, AND me!! Everyone's makeup was impeccable! Every single woman looked beautiful!!! The girls who had never worn much makeup before looked so amazing. I was so so very happy with Marissa!!! ALL of the ladies looked beautiful!!

    Marissa and her hair stylist did an absolutely AMAZING job! I could hardly recognize myself, and I mean that in a good way! All my bridesmaids also looked wonderful, and one of them even stated that her makeup and hair was done better at my wedding than at her own! Everyone looked beautiful, and Marissa and her stylist came all the way from Methuen (I live in North Brookfield) at no extra charge. She was extremely friendly and professional and all my girls loved the results. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

    Marissa was fantastic. My hair stylist, Laurie Garrett, was instrumental in organizing the entire session with herself and Marissa. Marissa was extremely flexible with her scheduling and was able to accommodate my changing schedule. At first, I was a bit intimidated to have my make-up done but she made the whole process feel very relaxing. She also did makeup for my sisters and they looked awesome! My make-up looked extremely natural but with a slight bit of drama. Even my husband was impressed. He especially liked my pink lipstick... I am now addicted to lipstain since the event. Her pricing was extremely reasonable and worth every penny!

    I loved marissa and her makeup work!
    The only issue I had was the price. Even tho marissa traveled to us, I feel $150 was a lot for brides maide makeup.
    I would consider using marissa for my wedding next year if she didn't charge my girls so much

    Makeup By Marissa's reply:

    Hello, thanks for your review. My price is $75. I believe you got your hair done also, so that's why it was $150. I would never charge a bridesmaid $150 for just makeup. Thanks!

    Marissa was wonderful and so easy to work with! I did a trial with her a couple weeks before my wedding to plan my look and as someone who does not typically wear too much makeup, I was a bit nervous that I wouldn't look like myself but I was very happy with the colors she chose. I also went back for a facial the week before the wedding and was so happy with how my skin felt afterwards. On the wedding day, she arrived at the agreed upon time and did my mother and MIL, neither of which wear a lot of makeup, or any at all and she made them both look beautiful. I am very happy that I chose Marissa to help with my wedding day look . I would highly recommend her!
