    Marwa is the best.

    Marwa is absolutely incredible! She is so knowledgable, kind, and talented. She's a quick worker as well, which I really appreciated. Her energy on our wedding day was exactly what we all needed in a makeup artist. She's reliable and very, very good at what she does! I would recommend her to anyone!

    Best hair and make up

    Marwa is one of the best out there!! She listened to what I envisioned for my look and executed it to perfection! My make up and hair stayed perfect all night. Her calm energy is exactly what I needed that day!

    She is the best!

    I knew Marwa was talented but some how she still managed to take my breath away with the hair and makeup look she did on my wedding day. She is so easy going I knew I was in good hands. My wedding day was a 16 hour day. The hair and makeup look she did on me lasted all day. I am forever grateful for not just the way I looked that day but the way I felt as well.

    2 Day Bridal Makeup and Hair

    Marwa did an excellent job for 2 different looks for my wedding. She captured each look just as I requested. From the application to the long wear, my makeup was radiant throughout each event. I really enjoyed our time together and highly recommend her skills.

    All the glam!

    Marwa made me feel incredibly glamorous for my wedding. She gave me a flawless soft smoky look that lasted through all the emotional moments of the big day. She was patient and flexible with planning and when working with the bridal party. She listened to what we wanted and made everyone look glamorous! I would highly recommend her as the best hair and makeup artist out there! It was a pleasure to have her doing my hair and makeup.

    Perfect - Couldn't Have Asked For More!

    Marwa is an incredibly talented artist who is extremely professional, friendly, and easy-going (which is so refreshing on such a stressful day)! She is punctual and efficient, never made me feel rushed, and was able to perfect my look (both hair and makeup) within the set timeframe. Marwa also got along so well with my family and other vendors (i.e. photographer trying to sneak in some shots) who were there that morning.

    During my trial, Marwa both listened to what I was looking for and offered some really great ideas based on her vast knowledge/experience. She's highly organized, keeps her tools and supplies extremely clean/sanitary, and works with a wide variety of quality products and colors to create your gorgeous, personalized look. She's able to easily incorporate something of your own, as well, if you desire (I wore a favorite shade of my own lipstick).

    My wedding day hair and makeup were absolute PERFECTION -- I couldn't have asked for anything else!  Everything was consistent with what we discussed during the trial, so there were no surprises. And the makeup looked just as flawless our pictures. But I never had that "I can't wait to wash my face at the end of the night" feeling -- on the contrary, I almost didn't want to wash my face and undo my hair that night because it all still looked and felt so fresh! Most of all, I actually FELT incredibly beautiful (and still looked like myself!) for my wedding day, all thanks to Marwa.

    I'll continue reaching out to Marwa for all of my future hair and makeup needs, and I'll never stop recommending her to others -- SHE'S TRULY THAT AMAZING!! :)

    Marwa is excellent!! I approached her a week before my engagement event date and she was kind enough to work me into her schedule. She answered all my questions by email/phone promptly and set up a schedule for the day of the event. She showed up right on time as promised and help me and 3 other ladies with hair and make up. She was very professional, attentive and delightful during the whole session, even with 4 different women giving their own opinions about hair and makeup . She is truly an artist and she is excellent at what she does. She made my engagement event that much more special. Don't think twice, just book her!

    Marwa did my makeup for my engagement party and she gave me exactly what I was looking for. The catch is I didn't know that is what I wanted until she was finished! She took the time to ask what my dress and hair was going to look like and what look I was going for. She researched different makeup styles online and showed them to me before we started. She is an expert at what she does, so she was able to figure out exactly what I wanted when I could not!

    Marwa was very professional and flexible. She came to my house at the time that worked best for me. She was at my engagement party and came immediately when a touch up was requested. She made sure that I looked flawless the entire night, including covering up a curling iron burn and tan lines!

    Marwa was so amazing! She made me feel gorgeous on my special night! I will definitely be booking her for myself and my bridal party on my wedding day! I would recommend her to anyone that wants to feel a little extra beautiful because she makes everyone look their absolute best! =)

    Before booking Marwa, I did a hair and makeup trial run with her and I completely fell in love with her creativity and caring attitude. Not only was she an amazing makeup artist and hair stylist, she was also very concerned with how I felt. She made it a fun and relaxing experience and wanted me to be completely satisfied with my look. She definitely works hard to make your vision come true. I booked her that night, because I was so impressed. Marwa made sure to check in with me after the trial run to see what I did/didn't like so she could make things perfect on the day of my wedding. So thoughtful!
    On the day of the wedding, Marwa and her assistant arrived on time and they were so professional throughout the entire day. They did hair and makeup for myself, four bridesmaids, one flower girl and three moms - so they had their hands full. However, they took time with each one of use to ensure everything was absolutely perfect. Everyone's look turned out incredible - they were all stunning. When I saw my final look, it was better than anything I had dreamt of. I had never felt so beautiful.
    Marwa and her assistant helped make my wedding day more incredible than I ever could have imagined. All of the girls had so much fun getting ready and we all felt so beautiful afterwards. If you want your hair and makeup to look flawless and to reflect the look YOU want, I would highly recommend Marwa. She is an amazing artist and person!!!

    Marwa and her assistant were fantastic at providing our make-up/hair services on my wedding day. I have never felt so beautiful. She took the time at the trial session to hear what I wanted, and created just that on the big day. I highly recommend her!

    Marwa did my hair and makeup for my wedding. She also provided these services for my mother and maid of honor.

    Everybody looked great! I had many compliments on my look and felt very beautiful. My hair and makeup also photographed well.

    Marwa was very professional. I had two last minute changes for where I was getting ready and Marwa was accommodating. She arrived on time and finished on time!

    I would recommend her services to anyone that wants to feel special.

    Marwa was wonderful to work with, we booked her on short notice and she was very flexible with the trial and schedule on the wedding day. I loved my make-up and it was great to have a trial ahead of time and know exactly what the make-up look would be on the big day.

    Marwa did my makeup for my engagement party in September and it was fabulous! She was well-prepared and organized and listened to my ideas and requests. The makeup stayed put all night, even during a brief A/C fiasco on a hot day!! I got many many compliments on my makeup and people still ask me who my makeup artist was. Highly recommend her!

    Marwa is an very creative and knowledgable makeup artist. I first met Marwa at the trial. She listened to what I wanted, looked at my outfits and created looks for me that I was delighted with. She took notes and photos throughout the trail, which she came prepared with on my big days. On the day of my trial, she noticed that my eyes were watering (I have dry eyes). She suggested that we try putting some eye drops. To my surprise, my eyes stopped watering. Marwa remembered to bring the eye drops on both my wedding and reception day.

    The looks she created for me on the days of my wedding and reception were even more incredible than the trial. She is able to work with brides from different ethnicities, producing great results for all skin types and colours. She is very helpful as well. I lost the back of my one of my earrings just as I was about to leave for my reception. Marwa was very sweet to let me use the backs of one of her earrings. She is very responsive, and it very easy to communicate with her via email or phone.

    Ladies, Marwa is amazing!
    I contacted her months ago, asking about services for my wedding for June 9. From the get-go, she was always pleasant, and always responded to my millions of phone calls and emails right away. As a crazed bride, this definitely helped with the overall process, and I never had to worry about whether or not I would look great my wedding day.
    The day of the wedding, Marwa came with an assistant, who was so calming and amazing. They were super professional, very nice, and made myself, 2 of my bridesmaids, and my mother look so fantastic! My groom actually started sobbing when he saw me and would not stop saying how beautiful I looked all night!
    I was so happy that I found her - thanks, Marwa!

    I honestly could not be happier about the services that Marwa provided my bridal party on my special day. Firstly, I contacted Marwa because I was looking for a makeup artist who would not only do an amazing job on my makeup, but also give me that professionalism that many vendors are lacking. With Marwa, I not only got both of those things, but much more. She was very professional at all times, but also kept it fun and comfortable. I felt like I could tell her exactly what I wanted, and she executed it perfectly. All the ladies in my bridal party looked amazing on my big day, and my guests were raving about my makeup the whole night. I am so happy with Marwa's work, she is truly talented.

    Absolutely Awesome!
    I highly recommend Marwa for her wedding make-up services. She is a pleasure to work with, and has a natural ability to put the bride at ease and everyone around here during the wedding day makeup session. My makeup was flawless, it lasted all day/evening and had just the right balance (perfect for oily skin). I did not reapply at all! Marwa is a talented make-up artist professional, her work is beautiful, and I am very happy that I had selected her to do my wedding makeup. She is reliable and gives you her best work. I received a lot of compliments, and would definitely recommend her to my friends and family. I am also planning to seek her make-up services for my one year anniversary and other special occasions! Thank You Marwa!

Thank you so much for making me feel so beautiful and confident on my wedding day.

    I truly cannot say enough about Marwa. She went above and beyond in helping me out with makeup AND hair. I was going to use a friend of a friend for wedding hair but something happened and I couldn't use the original hairstylist. This totally freaked me out since I only had like 3-4 months to find a hairstylist and Marwa came to the rescue! She referred a friend that does hair, Carolyn (Swirls'n'Curls) and she did a fantastic job! The hair and makeup looked flawless!! I did 2 different looks (natural for ceremony and then glammed up for the reception) and it looked amazing! Everyone loved the hair and makeup and people were giving me compliments all night long! Marwa's makeup abilities are AMAZING!!! She did makeup not only for my bridal party but my fiance (yes Marwa does makeup for men but it looks so natural you can't tell they're wearing anything!), mother & sister of the bride and they looked beautiful!! Marwa is so flexible and she's willing to work with your budget too which is extremely helpful in planning a wedding. Needless to say, Marwa is the perfect choice for wedding & special occasion makeup!! Hands down the best in the biz!

    Marwa was amazing!! Circumstances dictated that no trial was had prior to my wedding day (I never requested one). Marwa was working with my hair professional and came highly recommended...so I felt confident she would do a great job - I was right!! She and my hairdresser showed up on-site, ON TIME, and ready to pamper me and my wedding party!

    I gave Marwa a brief description of what I was looking for and after what seemed like only minutes, she had me looking flawless!! Anything I asked her to do, she did. She never once questioned my wants and instead, helped me feel confident about every decision I made about my look on my special day!

    Marwa also did makeup for my mom, mother-in-law, matron of honor, and bridesmaids. They were also pleased and looked fabulous! I would highly recommend her services to anyone!!!

    Marwa recently did my Make-up for my sisters wedding in which I was a bridesmaid. I had expressed to her how disappointed I had been in the past with my make-up done by MAC counter make-up artists and she took the time to listen to what it is I really wanted. She truly did an AMAZING job! And best of all my Make-up looked as amazing at the end of the night as it did at the beginning. If you regard Make-up as an art, Marwa is an artist in the true sense of the word! You will not be disappointed!

Marwa I know your busy and always booked but just remember that you are doing my makeup for my wedding!!! You are truly the kind of person that makes everyone feel nothing but Beautiful and a Princess!!! Thank you!
