Best Makeup Artist Ever!
Melisa is a GEM 🥰 a Godsent! She made my wedding day so perfect, from her attentiveness, her kindness and her spirit. She made me feel like the most beautiful bride ever 🥰 Melisa was very welcoming, down to earth and very sweet. Melisa and her amazing assistant Samantha made sure that my bridal party, including my mom were taken care, their needs were met and also paid attention to their makeup preferences. Melisa’s spirit is like no other. She is so funny and has such a great personality. To this day, my bridal party is still on awe of how beautiful they looked and felt. I booked Melisa for the entire day and it was best decision I ever made, as I had a Nigerian and American ceremony all in one day. Make sure you book with Melisa. I promise you, it will be one of the best decisions you’ll ever make. Melisa, thank you for making me and bridal tribe feel so beautiful. I am in awe of your work from my bridal trial, bridal shower and wedding day looks 🥰. May the Lord continue to bless your craft ❤️❤️ -

The best makeup artist I could've ever asked for
There's so many great things I can say about MeMa, but I'll sum it up with one word: Stellar. She did my makeup for my wedding and it was far beyond my expectations. She not only super professional, she's so sweet, funny and caring. But the way she and her assistant Sam had me and my bridesmaids looking like goddesses! Nothing can compare to that. Not just that, me and my girls were dancing, crying and sweating and our makeup did not budge. We were glowing all night. No smudge, no cracking makeup, nothing. Our makeup stayed flawless.
MeMa's talent is beyond words can compare. Every face she touches turns to gold. She's the only makeup artist I want to touch my face for the rest of my life. If I can't get a MeMa beat, I don't want it. But seriously, MeMa went beyond my expectations for my wedding makeup and I'm beyond thankful for her talents. Not only did she help with my makeup, but she was helpful with small issues that arose before my ceremony. MeMa's nothing short of incredible and wonderful. I can't wait to see what kind of magic she creates in the future. -

Melisa has to be hands-down the greatest makeup artist I have ever worked with!! She is so talented and I could not get over how insanely beautiful I looked for my big day. I was super self-conscious of my skin and if I was going to sweat off my make up during the wedding, make up stayed flawlessly intact throughout the entire night. Our guests were saying I looked like I had a filter on my face!! She worked really well with the inspiration pictures, I gave her and made it look so natural with my skin. I genuinely felt like a queen on my big day, which is exactly what I wanted! She is so incredibly talented. You will not regret hiring her for your big day!!

The Dream Artist for the dream wedding!!
We were lucky enough to have Melisa as our incredible makeup artist for our wedding and welcome party, and we can't stop raving about her talent! From the trial to the big day, Melisa worked her magic, leaving us feeling like absolute royalty.
What sets Melisa apart is not just her amazing skills but also the genuine passion she brings to her work. Our bridal party looked stunning, and the makeup held up perfectly throughout the day and night. n(and it was over 12 hours long!!)
What truly blew us away was how she intuitively understood the vision I had in mind, even when I was a bit unclear. She transformed my ideas into reality, creating looks that were beyond what we could have imagined.
My wedding was successful because I chose the right vendors--Melisa was amazing!! -

Melisa and her team were so efficient, friendly, professional and talented. My ladies looked amazing. I shared my vision with Melisa and she over delivered. Outstanding work. The makeup was spot on with the vibe of the wedding. She even gave each lady a touch up kit that was very appreciated. I cannot wait to recommend her to my family and friends. Melisa made my day super easy and organized. -

Truly don't have enough words to thank Melisa and her assistant Sam for flawlessly executing my bridal party's makeup. The girls looked flawless and I felt like a queen. They move quickly but you don't feel rushed. They chat enough to keep nerves calm and honestly just nail the glam. Two of my bridesmaids commented that this is the best pro they've ever had! I would wholeheartedly hire them again in a second. And yes, it lasts all night and didn't crease!
Melisa, thank you, thank you, thank you! -

The Best Choice for your Special Day
Hiring Melisa as the makeup artist for my wedding was literally THE BEST decision I could have made for my wedding day. From our first encounter via email to scheduling my consultation to filtering through different bridal looks to the actual wedding day she was professional, transparent,supportive and a team player! I am not someone who wears a lot of make up on the regular and she truly guided me through the process of choosing the right look for my wedding day.
On the actually day she was timely and prompt making sure me and all my girls were finished with our looks on time (we were 7 in total-yess shes a BEAST) and she made sure everyone was comfortable with their looks and felt their best. She literally was able to flawless transition and provide stunning make up for people of different races, skin types and face shapes like it was NOTHING.
Of course wedding days are hectic but she remained as cool as a cucumber even when some of my family members werent. I was so nervous and she was literally by my side until my first dance retouching me and educating me on how to touch up my look when she left.
As a black woman- it was so meaningful to have another black woman watching over, supporting and championing me on a day that so many of us dream of for most of our lives and want to be perfect.
If i can give any Bridal advice it would be to hire Melisa because she will help make you look your best and add to the magic of your special day.
Also hire her for the additional time! I added it in a couple days before and it would be my number one advice for Brides. Her make up doesnt budge but after the ceremony and all the pictures it was amazing having her there to
retouch me!

I first met Melisa in 2015 when she did the makeup for a wedding I was a bridesmaid in. She was just starting out that at time, and her makeup skills have only gotten better and better since then. I've been following her on Instagram for all these years and promised myself that I would book her if I ever got married. Fast forward a few years and as soon as I got engaged and set my wedding date I reached out because I wanted to make sure I had her booked for my special day. Melisa did an AMAZING job and made me look FLAWLESS! I have never felt so beautiful. I received so many compliments on my makeup and it lasted the entire day and night with no need for touchups! I would highly recommend her for any special occasion, but especially your wedding. She communicates well, is professional and is well worth what she charges! She also goes above and beyond and helped make some awesome social media content that I will cherish for years to come! You won't be disappointed if you book her! -

I first met Melisa in 2018 when I booked her for my graduation makeup. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of having her do my makeup for all special occasions such as my birthday and engagement shoot so I already knew who I wanted to slay my bridal party for my July wedding. Melisa is professional, quick, and so easy to talk to. She literally had my girls ready within 45 mins and EVEN CATERED to my junior bridesmaids and my mother in law. I was so thankful to have Melisa a part of my day. I had no worries! Book MeMaCreations NOW! You won’t regret it! -

Wonderful Wedding Make-up
Mema is such a talented and amazing make-up artist. I am so grateful to have found her. She initially did the make up for my engagement session and I loved it so much that I booked her for my wedding. She and an assistant did the make-up for myself, 3 bridesmaids, my mother and mother in law. Everyone's make up looked amazing and lasted all day. I had an outdoor ceremony and first look on 5/12 and the weather was unseasonably warm. High of 80. My make-up looked pristine the whole day. Mema was so kind and caring the whole morning. When I found myself stressed about one thing or another, she held space for me and was such a calming presence on the morning of. I am so grateful to her for that. I wanted a look that had a little whimsy but still allowed me to shine through and she nailed it! She also pampered me with a mask and a personalized touch up kit just in case. If you book MemaCreations you will get a kind, punctual, and professional make-up artist who always understands the assignment. Book Her! -

Melisa (Mema) is everything you want and need for your special day & you will not regret it.
I was a bridesmaid for my best friend's wedding. Originally we had picked another MUA but unfortunately things were not going well at all, and we decided to cut ties and move forward. I had put the bride through several trials with new MUAs, and found out that Melisa is LEGIT: passionate about her craft, endearing to others, detail oriented, a great listener, and a warm embrace amongst the stress & chaos.
From booking the trial all the way to the day of, melisa was on it. She explained everything thoroughly with me over the phone, through email, and was even responsive to text messages. Her contract is to the point & very thorough. She made sure her clients knew that she was the real deal & was gonna make sure all goes well.
Before the wedding, she asked plenty questions and requested pics of the individuals who needed makeup so she can automatically have an idea or shade matches, so time wouldn't be wasted day of. 🙏 She even encourages those who have their own makeup at home that they like and enjoy to bring it in & she will use it on you. This is GREAT for those with sensitive skin (I brought my own foundation & concealer).
What I appreciated the most was that we had to add people to the list of those who needed makeup done, and even had to change hotel venues at the last minute, and Melisa was so accomodating.
We had about 10 or so people who needed makeup done & completed by around 1pm, so we began at 5am. Melisa was already in the hotel lobby ready to work by 450am. She worked alone too without assistance!! She works quietly and efficiently with all her professional supplies by her side. She even played a little music to help ease our stress. :) she completed each face flawlessly and in a timely manner, with the bride going last of course.
THE MAKEUP (except the lippie) LASTED ALL NIGHT. I have had my makeup done by several MUA, & melisa was the only one who had my look stay on all day & night. It was amazing.
* Please note: the prices she states does NOT include gratituity. Although this might be an obvious for some, it's something that slipped my mind amidst all the stress.
Sum it up....
Melisa is proud of her work and she works with so much love and integrity. Even to this day I go to her about makeup advice ❤💫 thank you Mel for being a part of this beautiful moment. God bless you and your passion. -

My wedding was planned in less than 2 months and the wedding date according to Melisa's Schedule. Funny enough the wedding date Melisa was available for my 5-year anniversary of my book release date in May 6, 2017, of course Melisa was my MUA that day too. I knew years ago that she would do my wedding and every time I saw her post a beautiful client whether bride, bridesmaids I said to myself she will do my makeup. Melisa (MEMA) has always been professional, kept up with the trends, on time and very personable. She can change your whole mood to Feeling Yourself as soon as she is around. Not only was she my makeup artist but she was my bridesmaid. Her and I have been close friends ever since we met through a mutual acquaintance. She had us all ready and set for pictures with our photographer in time for our robe pictures and to get ready. It was a rainy cold day ALL Day but that makeup did NOT MOVE. The only time she had to retouch it was for my dress change into my traditional Nigerian Attire. I will not lie I kept my makeup on for Days and I am not ashamed HA. Her hands are anointed, she is gifted, talented and a visionary. We did not have a makeup trial because we know she would delivery and I was obsessed with my face it was more than I can imagine for my wedding day. Melisa Thank you so much for fulfilling my dream with being my makeup artist and being a part of my journey every step of the way. You are truly a great friend to me, and I cherish you. -

MeMaCreations is truly an experience!! So happy I selected Melisa to be one of my wedding vendors! Melisa was the third make up artist I went to for a bridal trial and there was no need to even consider looking any further. I had so much fun during the the trial and even more fun with her on my wedding day. She knows how to connect with her clients, execute their vision and most importantly, ensure they look and feel amazing! You will not be disappointed. A true professional delivering quality work!! -

I used Melissa for my wedding to do my makeup, my wife's and my friends for my big day and she was exceptional to say the least. Dealt with some of the changes we had, was fine with the very early morning start (6am) and slayed everyone's face and kept to the the timeline we had today. I would say book her asap!! -

Alethia C. Sent on 11/02/2021Amazing bridal experience!
My sister recently got married and I was the maid of honor in her wedding. This was possibly the BEST makeup experience we could've received on her big day. First let me point out that the call time was for 5:30am. Melisa and her assistant, Jessica, arrived on time and in a great mood despite how early it was. They made conversations with every member of the bridal party while they did our makeup, and treated us like a priority. You can tell that they genuinely love this work, which is evidenced by the precision and detail they put into it. They spoke with every girl before doing their makeup, inquiring about their skin type and other important details for a flawless finish. More than 15 hours later, and all of the bridal parties' makeup still looked fresh. Working with Melisa is the whole experience. She's not just someone who does amazing makeup, but she ensures that the vibes are good and the energy is lit, even at 5:30am. If you're looking for a MUA, book her now! 💕 -

Perfection
I was a bridesmaid in my brothers wedding. This was my first interactions with Jessica but she was amazing! She knew the color scheme of the wedding but asked if I wanted a WOW GLAM or more of a natural look, which is what I prefer. And boy did she deliver! I felt stunning! Wish I could So my makeup like that myself lol she was engaging and personable and really wanted to make myself, and all the ladies, look our best. She saw our natural beauty and enhanced it wonderfully. Would definitely have her for any event. -
