Absolutely Amazing!

Julie is truly amazing! She is super sweet and very talented. She did my makeup for my wedding and it came out better than I could’ve ever imagined! You will not regret booking with her.

Can't recommend Pittsburgh Makeup enough!

Julie was an absolute gem to work with and made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! She made sure I still looked like myself, just a more elevated version which is exactly what I was looking for. She is a perfectionist, even during my trial the attention to detail she took was awesome to see. My makeup lasted 16 hours and still looked perfect when I removed it. I highly recommend Julie for your wedding day!

Absolutely the Best!

WOW!...I simply can not be more impressed with Julie at Pittsburgh Makeup. She does an amazing job. From the booking confirmation up to my wedding day she was just great. She was always quick to answer any questions or concerns I had. She took her time with each of us, and really listened to what we pictured our makeup being like. Our makeup was absolutely STUNNING. Julie made me feel, and look so beautiful on my wedding day. I could not have asked for a better makeup artist. All the guests kept commenting how much they loved our makeup. She is amazing at what she does!

Amazing job! Wedding 7/31/21

Julie did an amazing job for my wedding on 7/31! I had a situation where my previous make up artist did not work out weeks before my wedding and when emailing different vendors, Julie happened to be open on my wedding date. Herself and Bri did an amazing job with make up for the day of, they showed up 10 mins early on-site at the Oaklander, made the entire make up process seamless, and was super professional. I could not recommend a make up artist more. If you live in the Pittsburgh area and looking for an experienced, professional, on trend make up artist, book Julie you will not regret it!!!

Julie is amazing!

Julie did the makeup for my wedding ceremony in May 2021 and I have nothing but amazing things to say! We already hired her for our reception next year. She is responsive via email - I had so many random questions and she answered honestly and quickly every time. I did a trial with her and loved everything but decided afterwards I wanted slightly more eye makeup - she didn't hesitate and delivered exactly what I wanted on my wedding day. As someone who doesn't wear a ton of makeup day to day, I really wanted someone to enhance my face and not make me look like a different person. Julie does this perfectly - I got so many compliments on my makeup that day and it was all thanks to her! Not to mention, she is so sweet! She made me feel so beautiful on the special day and I can't recommend her enough!

Julie is Amazing!

Julie did my wedding makeup on June 26, 2021. A week later I still can't stop thinking about how beautiful she made me feel and how flawless my makeup was. As an 'older' bride, I wanted to look as natural as possible, but still have a little 'pop' for photos. Julie nailed it! I kept looking in the mirror in awe of her talent. And her beautiful personality makes her a joy to work with. Julie also did our 20 something daughters, and they were drop dead gorgeous! Julie took their youth & beauty and merely enhanced their natural features with a healthy glow. We were walking on air all evening feeling so beautiful. Julie is a Master makeup artist and I truly can't wait to work with her again.

Couldnt have asked for anything more!

Julie and her team were so amazing to work with!!!
OMG - she was SO sweet and able to provide such a customized experience for everyone.

Getting married during COVID was NOT easy! We had issues with the TWO other makeup artists that we tried to hire for the day. Needless to say - I reached out to Julie with 1 month to SPARE. She dropped everything and made it work! We had 13 people to try to accommodate for make-up and everyone looked FLAWLESS!

While I was getting ready, Julie gave me little pep talks and positive vibes! Let me tell you guys - I REALLY needed this. She helped me to relax and focus on how amazing the day would be and she transformed my make-up visions into a reality.

Julie made me feel super comfortable and was so flexible in her work. She asked for feedback along the way so if i ever didn't love something, she could correct it. BUT i can honestly say that I've never felt more beautiful than i did on my Wedding day!!

10/10 would recommend!! LOVED WORKING WITH HER!!

Julie is Amazing

There was no question that I would use Julie as my make-up artist on my wedding day. I was in two weddings previously and Julie did the make-up for both. Not only is she extremely nice, but she is amazingly talented. I loved her attention to detail at the trial and on the wedding day. I had a vision and she made it come to life. Julie made me feel my prettiest on the most important day of my life and for that I am forever grateful. I would use her 100 times over!

Wedding makeup perfection!

Having Julie and her assistant do makeup for our wedding was one of the best decisions we made, hands down. They were both so nice and fun to work with, and the end results were absolutely stunning. Every look she did was unique and perfectly flattered each one of my girls, while keeping everyone in their comfort zone. She even went down and did a little touch up for the groom, which helped him cover a few blemishes and feel his very best too! On a personal note- I usually never like how I look in photos and was nervous to have my picture taken so many times at my wedding, but Julie's work made me feel beautiful and confident. Thanks to her, I felt amazing on my wedding day and love seeing the photos! I can't recommend Julie and her team strongly enough! Hire her if you want to look and feel amazing on your wedding day!!

Julie was amazing!! She was so friendly and helpful and I couldn't have asked for a better experience!! She came out to my parent's house the morning of my wedding and was so nice and welcoming to my family and bridesmaids and made them feel so comfortable. All of my girls looked beautiful and were so happy with their makeup! Even my mom who never wears makeup was thrilled with how beautiful and natural Julie made her look. From the first consultation to the wedding day, Julie made the whole experience simple and wonderful. I would recommend her to anyone for their wedding day!

Julie Is The BEST!

Planning a wedding can be daunting. There are so many choices and options it can be hard to know whose "good" and whose "not so good" in the wedding industry. Luckily, I had the pleasure of working with Julie from Pittsburgh Makeup prior to my big day. Julie did the makeup for my sister's wedding about 5 years ago and when I started planning for my wedding, I knew right away she was the one I wanted.

Julie is very friendly and goes out of her way to make everyone feel comfortable and relaxed on the wedding day. My trial and wedding makeup turned out flawless. I’m not much of a makeup person on a day-to-day basis, so I told Julie I trusted her to use her professional judgement and do what she felt made me look the best, and she nailed it.

I can't say enough good things about her and her business. If you're a bride looking for a makeup artist in Pittsburgh then Julie is your girl! I highly recommend Julie and Pittsburgh Makeup.

I loved everything about my experience with Julie! Not only is she so talented doing make up, but she’s so incredibly delightful to work with. She made sure to have the perfect combo of a natural look in person but also enough for a smooth complexion in pictures. All of the bridesmaids were more than pleased with their make up as well. She took her time, made sure everyone was beyond satisfied, and overall just did an amazing job! I would highly highly recommend her for any wedding or special event!

Julie is a bride's dream: a total professional, wonderfully talented and also a great friend! I worked with Julie as my makeup artist at a fashion/retail job before getting engaged and knew I wanted her at my wedding when the time came - we even scheduled our wedding date further out to make sure she would be available. She's capable of working with all skill levels of brides and wedding party members, whether everyone in your party needs a full face or some girls just need a little extra help while you're getting your own makeup done. She really listens to be sure she understands the style and colors you want and uses the same products at the trial session that she does for your wedding. I can't say enough good things about Julie. She has a calming presence that helps a lot on the big day when something with another vendor inevitably gets mixed up. You can trust that at the very least, your makeup will be awesome!

Julie is amazing !!! She does such a wonderful job and is such a pleasure to work with. I was the bride who waited last minute to find a make up company that would travel to my location. Surprisingly enough, She accommodated me and 4 other girls!! She very prompt and very kind! I felt and looked amazing after she was finished. She did touch ups after she was completed too, which I didn't expect. She made sure each and everyone looked their best and were happy with the results. Id recommend her to anyone looking for a make up company that has decent prices, does a beautiful job and the make up last all day!! Bonus: She will travel to you! Thank you again from all us ladies

Julie is AMAZING! I first met her through one of her make up classes. She is seriously so talented and experienced. I knew I had to have her for my wedding day! She traveled to my location with ease and was right on time. I had a larger bridal party, and she made the decision to bring an assistant to adhere to my timeline for the day. Julie and her assistant worked together seamlessly. Everyone looked FLAWLESS! She took her time making sure each girl looked perfect. Everyone was so pleased with how the make up turned out. And the best part, we looked just as good when the day ended. If you want to look and feel beautiful on your wedding day, go with Pittsburgh Make-up. I can't say enough good things about Julie!!

It is every girl's dream to feel like a princess on her wedding day and, because of Julie, I did. She did my makeup first when I was a bridesmaid and then when I was a bride. I knew I had to have her on my wedding day after meeting her at my best friend's wedding. She is so easy to work with, extremely professional in communicating throughout the planning process, and truly made my day more special by being a part of it. I cannot express how satisfied I am with my whole experience. My trial was perfect and left me feeling so reassured for the wedding day! She arrived promptly on the wedding day (30 minutes prior to the wedding party) to set up, and completed my makeup along with my 11 bridesmaids in perfect timing for the photographers. She communicated so well with my other vendors to ensure that we stayed on schedule. Julie made my big day so enjoyable along with her two assistants. They worked so hard and were so fun to start the day with! I am very particular about my makeup and Julie could not have done a better job... and it lasted ALL DAY! I highly recommend her to any bride looking for an outstanding experience on her wedding day. You will leave for the ceremony feeling like the most beautiful girl in the world!

Myself and all of my bridesmaids cannot wait to have our makeup done by her on my big day! Not to mention, her new studio is so cute! Thanks again, Julie!

Julie was awesome! She did make up for me, and my bridesmaids for our wedding in August. She was extremely flexible with the time frame that I had for all of us to get our make up done. She's super nice, and very professional! I had to get my make up done very early in the morning (7am) to work with my time frame and my make up lasted PERFECTLY all day long on a sunny 90 degree August day outdoor wedding. I was amazed at how great the make up looked at the end of the night. I would absolutely recommend Pittsburgh Makeup to anyone looking for a great makeup artist!

Julie is INCREDIBLE! You would be silly not to book with her. I was planning our Philadelphia, PA wedding from Denver, CO, and she was amazingly flexible. She travelled to Philly for our wedding, and made time on a Saturday to do a trial when I happened to be in town. She did my makeup, 4 bridesmaids, my mom and MIL and everyone loved her because on top of kickass makeup, she's the sweetest and nicest person. Seriously, BOOK HER for your wedding, she rocks!

Julie was such a pleasure to work with on my wedding day. She made all of the girls feel comfortable and extra special. As the bride, she took extra time to make my wedding day look flawless. She even bought eyeshadow colors that were specifically used in a look that I had requested! I would most definitely recommend her to any future bride! I was hesitant about spending the extra cash for wedding day makeup, but it was most certainly worth my while.

We needed makeup for thirteen people (including two brides!), and Julie was INCREDIBLE to work with. She replied very quickly to my initial email and sent all of the info that I needed to make a decision. I was still looking to book some other vendors and she had several recommendations for professionals that she had worked with in the past- I ended up happily booking a suggested hair stylist. At the makeup trial at her studio, she looked over the pictures that I brought and made a lot of suggestions to improve and personalize the look (and make sure that I looked great in my photos). On the day of the wedding, she arrived promptly on time at the hotel with two very nice assistants and our whole group was done early. Everyone enjoyed their looks and complimented me on how friendly Julie and her team were, and they really took their time making sure that each and every girl looked amazing. Our six year old flower girl loved being pampered too, and felt very fancy. I could not have been more pleased with Julie's service throughout the entire process and having a professional who regularly also does makeup for advertising made me feel very confident that she knew how to do makeup for the camera. Our photos were fantastic and I never had a moment's stress worrying about my makeup. You cannot go wrong with Julie!

One of the best wedding decisions made was choosing Pittsburgh Makeup! I seriously can't say enough great things about Julie's work. From the trial to the big day, I was SO, SO pleased and happy with everything!! Julie was amazing to work with, very professional, always responded quickly, and was just such a kind person! For my wedding day, Julie and an assistant, who was also amazing, provided makeup services for myself and 6 bridesmaids--everyone raved about the service and we got so many compliments on how we looked! Hands down one of the best decisions for my wedding---I know I will forever look back and be so pleased with how my makeup looked on my wedding day! Thanks Julie! :)

First off let me say, Julie is the best in the business!! Julie provided make-up for myself, my bridesmaids, and my mother. I couldn’t have been happier with the results, and I know everyone else was equally satisfied. She made me look and feel beautiful on my wedding day!!! She has a wonderful eye for color, respectfully listens to your requests, and moves throughout the getting-ready period of the day with a calm, collected stress-free attitude. She was on time and ahead of schedule. My bridesmaids and I looked flawless! Having her do makeup at my wedding was one of the first (and best!) decisions I made while wedding planning. Makeup was one thing I knew I didn’t want to worry about on the day of the wedding, and it came out wonderfully. Julie is a true professional, and has a passion for her work. If you’re thinking about hiring her, go for it – but book early because she is in demand! I would highly recommend her – she’s worth every penny.

LOVED, LOVED, LOVED my experience with Pittsburgh Makeup for my wedding day! From my trial to my big day Julie worked with me on developing the 'natural bridal glow' I wanted. I received so many compliments from my guests and those who saw pictures for how 'effortless' I looked on my big day. Not to mention, she made by bridesmaides equally as gorgeous. The whole squad not only looked good, but ultimately felt good about their achieved glam. I highly recommend Pittsburgh Makeup for any future brides looking for a creative, knowledgeable, and very personable makeup artist for their wedding day! :-)

Julie is amazing! Such a wonderful person to work with and be a part of your wedding day. My makeup was absolutely stunning for my wedding day! As was my bridesmaids and mother. We did a trial with her prior to the big day and she spends a lot of time making sure that you are getting the look that you want. She puts the makeup on lightly/more natural and then adds more dependent upon the look you are trying to achieve. I feel like this was a wonderful application process because I knew I was never going to have too much and could add/change things as I wanted too-- Julie was very patient and willing to add/change whatever to help me achieve the vision I had. All in all I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a wonderful makeup artist!

Julie of Pittsburgh Makeup is absolutely exceptional. She is meticulous about her makeup application process, doesn't rush, and makes sure to explain her process and to discuss the makeup design with her clients throughout her appointment with them. Julie worked hard during my trial appointment to talk about a look with me and to browse through a few photos to figure out my ideal makeup style, and took lots of photos after the application so that she could review them with me to talk about any changes I wanted for the big day. On the day of the wedding, she arrived early at our bridal suite and set up shop quickly. She made the changes we talked about, taking her time to perfect my look, and had me check in the mirror so I could ask for any final additions. I adored my makeup, and no exaggeration: I have never felt so beautiful in my entire life! My mom also had Julie apply her makeup, and her reviews were just as glowing. Julie gave me the dramatic smokey eyes of my dreams, and everyone told me how stellar I looked. THANK YOU, Pittsburgh Makeup, for your A-plus service!

Julie was AMAZING! I am so so happy that someone recommended her for my wedding. She is one of the sweetest people and is so incredibly talented. Every one of my bridesmaids along with my mother were so happy with their makeup! I felt so beautiful and am so appreciative! As soon as she was finished with my makeup I felt like I was ready to get married-before I even put my dress on! She made everyone extremely comfortable and I would recommend her services to anyone!

I love Julie! She is fantastic, and I couldn't have been happier with my makeup on my wedding day. I live in NYC and wasn't able to do a trial which was really scary, but you would never know! Just from pictures and a few ideas, Julie knew exactly what she was doing. She also took her time, and made sure that we were on the same page throughout the whole process. She also did my Maid of Honor, Mom and Mother-in-Law who all looked gorgeous and loved their makeup. I think professional makeup is scary and it's so hard to find someone who is really good - but Julie is the best of the best. Book her!

Julie is the best! She is professional, prompt (early actually!), and awesome at what she does! She really took the time to make sure everyone was happy with their makeup, and she made myself, my bridesmaids and my mother all look so beautiful! I could not have asked for a better makeup artist!

Selecting vendors for your wedding can be very stressful, but let me say, if you select Julie as your makeup artist for your big day, you will not be disappointed. A college friend recommended Julie to me, and I will forever be grateful that she did. Julie is not only an amazing makeup artist, she is also one of the nicest people I have ever met! I live out of town, and Julie rearranged her schedule to fit me in for a last minute trial makeup appointment the week before my wedding. During the trial, Julie took the time to give me the exact look that I envisioned and she really listened to what I wanted. Her next appointment arrived early, and instead of rushing, she took the time to finish my makeup perfectly.

On the day of the wedding, Julie did my makeup along with my mother and 4 bridesmaids. We all absolutely loved the way we looked, and she even had all 6 people completed ahead of schedule, giving us extra time for pictures and to relax. I cannot say enough good things about Julie as a person and as a professional. Book her in advance, and I can assure you, you will not be disappointed. Julie, thank you for making my wedding day that much more special by helping me look and feel like a beautiful bride!

Julie is amazing! She is extremely professional, prompt, and friendly. The entire process of reserving the date for wedding makeup, scheduling a makeup trial, and makeup on the actual wedding day was easy and headache-free. She is extremely prompt in replying to e-mails. The makeup trial was very useful in determining what I wanted for the wedding. On our wedding day, Julie arrived early to my apartment and performed her airbrushing services on myself, my maid of honor, and my mother. Everyone was very happy with how they looked! I highly recommend Julie for your wedding day!

From the first time I contacted Julie over a year ago her quick response and communication with me was perfect from the very start! We met the day of my shower for my make up trial and I gave her a few ideas for what I wanted to look like the day of the wedding. My make up trial was the first time I ever had my make up done professionally and she explained everything thoroughly to me and was very informative and knew exactly what to do and that is what put me at ease! We then communicated a few times before the big day. She arrived promptly the day of the wedding and she was everything I could ever imagine and more! She did a fantastic job with my bridesmaids and unbelievable work with me! She remembered everything from what lip color I wanted to conversations we had at the trial. She is one of the sweetest ladies ever and so personable and fun! I absolutely recommend Julie x100 to any bride looking for an on location service. Julie will go above and beyond your expectations! A true gem in my books! Thanks again!!!!

I used Julie as my makeup artist for my wedding at the Mansion at Maple Heights in Pittsburgh on July 19th this year. She was a preferred vendor at the Mansion, so I booked her services last year. From our initial emails to my makeup trial to the wedding day, she was friendly, responsive, helpful, and professional! She and an assistant did makeup for myself, 5 bridesmaids, flower girl, aunt, and mother on the day of the wedding. She did a phenomenal job!! Everyone was thrilled with the natural, yet flattering makeup looks they received, as well as the staying power of the makeup. I couldn't be more pleased with how well mine turned out. Julie went the extra mile, and made sure everything was exactly how I had pictured it, and even gave extras to touch up during the day. She did a fantastic job, and I would recommend her to anyone that need a makeup artist for their big day!

Julie was AMAZING from the start of our conversations, to our make-up trial, to the big day! She was always quick to respond to my MANY questions and made me feel unbelievably comfortable. My make-up was flawless the day of our wedding- it was everything I imagined and envisioned and best of all I didn't need any touch ups all day and night! Julie is a true artist and the only person I trust to do my make up but make sure I still look natural and like "me." She's the best!

Julie was awesome! Definitely be ready with an idea of the look you're going for and Julie will execute it flawlessly. Also, she's totally calm under pressure, which is a bonus on a wedding morning. She is so incredibly talented! I absolutely loved my makeup on my wedding day! My makeup looked very natural & lasted all day...yes even through the tears of joy! She was very professional & so easy to work with. She made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day! I cannot recommend her enough. =)

I cannot say enough about how fabulous Julie was! From the beginning she was responsive and friendly, and we had such a good time with her the day of the wedding! All of my bridesmaids, my mom, mother in law and grandmother all got their makeup done, and everyone looked absolutely stunning! She listened to all of my requests, but made it look even more beautiful than I could have ever hoped for!

I cannot say enough about Julie! From our first contact I knew I had made the right decision. She is extremely professional, yet super fun at the same time. At my trial run, I showed her what I wanted and she did exactly that, so I was so excited for the actual wedding! She came on-site and arrived promptly, set up, and got right to work, but was able to have fun with us too. My mother and sister also got their makeup done by her and loved it! My wedding was in August and it was hot, but my makeup stayed put all day. I received SO MANY compliments on it how gorgeous I was! I felt like a princess!! The compliments I received were absolutely priceless and I cannot thank Julie enough!!

I wholeheartedly recommend Julie of Pittsburgh Makeup! Working with Julie was an absolute pleasure. From the moment Julie returned my telephone call, to the signing of the contract, to delivery of her services on my wedding day, she is a consummate professional who delivers extraordinary results! As a 42 year old bride, I was eager to look my best and reduce my stress on wedding day. Julie arrived promptly to set up her products, had my makeup done in record time, and worked well with the hair professional who was also on site. Julie used a wonderful combination of airbrush makeup and other products to ensure a long lasting and flawless result. My husband said he'd never seen me look so beautiful as I did walking down the aisle. My makeup lasted more than 12 hours and looked beautiful in the photographs. A big thank you, Julie, for making my day so fabulous. I will absolutely tell others about you and use you again in the future when I have another important event.

Julie was an absolute dream to work with. She was very responsive with emails, and was SO friendly. She made my bridesmaids, flower girl, mother & myself look gorgeous on my wedding day. Julie worked with our requests but made them 10x better by using her experience to make us look better than we could have imagined. I told her I wanted to focus on my eyes and cover existing acne scars, and she worked with my skin tone to make me look absolutely beautiful, even though I had given her a very vague request in the scheme of things. She used a mixture of regular makeup as well as airbrush and applied false eyelashes on me, which looked amazing! Julie came to the venue where we were staying with her supplies and it was like having a girl's night out, only in. She made us feel very at ease with the whole process. I would definitely recommend Julie for any bride looking to have a stress-free experience for their wedding day make-up.

Julie was fantastic from beginning to end! She was flexible with my crazy schedule, and I loved her studio that I visited for my trial run. On the wedding day, she did airbrush makeup and fake lashes, making me look the best I ever have (according to everyone around me). The makeup lasted all day, even through the tears, hugging, and laughter. She came to the house where my bridesmaids and I were getting ready and made all of them, including my mother, look fantastic! I am very thankful for everything she did, and I would recommend her over ANYONE else for makeup!

Julie did on-location makeup for my wedding last weekend at Heinz Chapel and LeMont. It was so nice to be able to relax and get our makeup done in the comfort of home! The trial at Julie's studio went well, and she was able to replicate the look on the day of my wedding successfully. I love the airbrush makeup that she does, we all got it. It felt so light, like you aren't even wearing makeup, but gives you as much or little coverage as you need. My makeup looked amazing and lasted all night until I washed it off! We will definitely be looking Julie up in a few years when my sister gets married!

Pittsburgh Makeup is ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! I wish that I could give ratings higher than a 5! FABULOUS is a complete understatement when describing the work that Julie does! I had corresponded with Julie, Pittsburgh Makeup owner, in the winter/spring of 2012 for my November wedding. She was absolutely wonderful to work with from that moment forward. I first met her in June when she did my makeup for our engagement photos. She also did my fiance with the "mens' makeup" since he has somewhat oily skin and didn't want to be all shiny for photos. I LOVED my makeup so much that I went back to Julie's studio in September for a makeup lesson. Julie is a truly talented and absolutely loves what she does! The entire bridal party looked GORGEOUS for our November 9th wedding. The bride, mother of the bride, and aunt of the bride all did the airbrushing. The bridesmaids and mother of the groom all did traditional makeup. It truly lasted all day on everyone! We had to have the makeup done relatively early in the day because of doing photos before the ceremony. It didn't make one bit of difference. The makeup still looked amazing come 11pm! My maid of honor loved Julie's work so much that she is going to schedule a makeup lesson the next time she is visiting Pittsburgh! Pittsburgh Makeup will not disappoint!

I recently used Julie for my wedding makeup and all of my bridesmaids makeup as well. She is great to work with and very professional. I was hesitant to use airbrushing for my wedding, but Julie showed me that there are different levels of application to make sure the foundation doesn't look too thick or "cakey". She was right and I loved the airbrushing. I also am not afraid of a more smoky and sultry look since I am dark featured and she did a great job acheiving my vision, without the makeup looking overdone. All of my bridesmaids loved her work and we received many compliments! I highly recommend Julie.

Julie has done my make-up twice. Once for me as a bridesmaid and once as a bride. Both experiences have been positive. Julie is professional and showed up 15 minutes early to my mom's house to get set-up. She offers both airbrush and traditional make-up. I loved my makeup and my bridesmaids makeup for my wedding. Each girl was slightly different but the colors were so flattering that it looked great all together. Our photographer even commented on how nice our makeup was done while taking pictures.

Julie is just great! I had so many great comments on my make-up on my wedding day (I did the airbrush)...it looked like me, only better! It also lasted all day. Julie was a breeze to work with--super-personable, extremely talented, and dependable. In fact, she was at least 1/2 hour early coming to my house on the wedding day! She did make-up for 3 other people in my wedding too, and they were all so pleased. She worked efficiently and expertly. I had no time concerns, and she helped make the getting-ready part of the day fun and worry-free. I would highly, highly recommend her!

I couldn't be happier with the service from Julie at Pittsburgh Makeup. I am not normally one to wear a lot of makeup, so when I went in for my trial I really had no idea where to start. She helped me figure out exactly what I wanted for my wedding day. I never felt like I had caked on makeup. It felt completely natural all day. She was truly a doll to work with and I can't wait to book a makeup lesson with her.

My body rebels against makeup. My skin is so oily in some areas that it turns any form of foundation into a goopy mess, and so dry in others that it ends up literally flaking off. My eyes are sensitive to the point where eyeliner makes them itch and water uncontrollably. Basically, I don’t like wearing makeup. Except when it’s applied by Julie. The woman is a magician. She somehow conquered my skin’s ridiculously exuberant oiliness and managed to apply eyeliner and mascara that didn’t make me want to scratch out my eyes. During my makeup trial, I noticed that my eyeliner smudged after a couple of hours. I mentioned this to Julie, and she 100% fixed the problem and left me with makeup that looked gorgeous throughout the entire day.

I had a ton of compliments on how great my makeup looked. She did a great job at making me look natural but elegant. I have never felt more beautiful in my life!! She was on time and both her and her assistant were very professional.

Julie was a pleasure to work with - professional, artistic and knowledgeable. From the moment she began my trial makeup, I knew she understood what style I was going for and pulled it off perfectly. I felt she listened to what I wanted and brought that vision to life on the day of my wedding. She was prompt and worked efficiently without leaving anyone feel rushed. I would highly recommend Julie's makeup services to other brides - you won't be disappointed!

Julie truly made my wedding a day my hubby and I will NEVER forget. I never wear eye makeup and was a little nervous to do so, but trusted Julie's taste to just work her magic! My trial was awesome as well because I really could envision what I was going to look like on my big day. The morning of the wedding, Julie & Lynds came to the hotel where my bridesmaids and I were getting ready. They were on time, so easy to work with and boy did they make us look pretty! I absolutely loved the smokiness she did on my eyelids and the false eyelashes were not over the top but perfect for the look I envisioned! She used her airbrushing and it was flawless, stayed on ALL DAY! I can't even count how many people commented on how fabulous my makeup looked! I will, without a doubt, continue to go to Julie for other services like waxing and facials. She is an A+ in my book and I have, and will continue, to recommend her to every bride-to-be I know! :) :)

Julie did an absolutely wonderful job on the makeup for my mom, 3 of my bridesmaids, and me on my wedding day!! Her car actually broke down on the highway on the way to do our makeup, but this didn't stop her from keeping her commitment and making it there in time for my big day! Her father-in-law was kind enough to pick her up and bring her to our hotel where we were having our makeup done - this shows true devotion to her job and her clients. She did not disappoint and we were all so happy with Julie's work. We looked and felt beautiful! Julie is so kind and easy to talk to. She was very quick to reply to all my emails/calls before the wedding, and also did an excellent job helping me find the perfect look at our pre-wedding trial session. I highly recommend Julie! She does beautiful work at an affordable price that is much cheaper than most other vendors I looked at. It takes so much stress off your wedding day to have a pro do your makeup.

Don't hesitate to book Julie Marckisotto ... she is a wonderful and talented makeup artist. She truly does enjoy her work and is a lovely person to have as part of your wedding day. For my wedding she airbrushed faces ranging from 28 to 60 years old and was able to please everyone ... including my niece who is quite expert herself in applying makeup. Everyone looked and felt beautiful! All commented on how personable and nice she was, and how pretty. (it certainly inspires confidence when your makeup artist looks flawless herself!) Julie had great email and phone communication with me prior to my wedding day; and when I sent her an email just 2 days before my wedding asking if she could possibly do 2 more girls, she graciously accommodated my request. With a wonderful personality and expert skills, she was a most welcome part of my wedding day.

Julie is amazing! I found her through a friend of mine and she did the makeup of myself, my mom, and 2 of my bridesmaids. She did an excellent job and we all got compliments throughout the day about how beautiful our makeup was! Julie, as a person, is extremely wonderful to work with. She is easy to schedule with and will bend over backwards to meet your nees and make sure you look wonderful on your day. All of my girls (my mom included) loved what she did with their different styles. She can do anything from dramatic evening makeup, to light and naturally, and no matter what style you pick, she does a fantastic job. She is such a sweetheart and very nice to be around. She makes you feel comfortable while she is doing your makeup and you feel like a lifelong friend even if you have never even met her. Thanks Julie for all you did for us, and I would 100% whole-heartedly recommend Julie for anyone seeking professional, friendly service on their wedding day!

Julie was such a pleasure to work with and does absolutely beautiful work. My bridesmaids and the mothers did traditional makeup (they were knock-outs!) and I opted for airbrushing. Julie made me feel amazing and the airbrushing was a great choice.

Julie is amazing! She's so friendly and worked with me to find a location that would be easiest for my bridal party. She did an amazing job with not only my make-up, but my maid of honor and mother's as well...and my pictures look great because of it. I recommend Julie to any person I know looking for bridal make-up or make-up tips.

Julie did a fabulous job with makeup for myself and my bridal party! She used airbrush makeup on some girls and traditional makeup on others and we all looked amazing! It was so nice to not have to stress out about doing my own makeup and I think that the girls enjoyed being pampered for the day! Julie is super nice and great to work with. I would recommend her to anyone!

I was a little iffy on spending money to have my makeup done but decided to splurge. Wow, I am SO glad I did! Julie is an amazing makeup artist and a sweetheart to boot. She did everything exactly as I wanted and the makeup was stunning in pictures. My bridesmaids look gorgeous as well. I love that Julie uses really good quality makeup - not only did it look great but it lasted all night. I was amazed! I highly recommend Pittsburgh Makeup.

Julie did fantastic work and was really great to work with! She has a large book of example looks for her to get a sense of the type of look you're going for. She gave good and honest advice about what would make me look my best. She took a lot of notes during out practice session to be able to quickly get my makeup right on the wedding day.

On the wedding day, she worked with each member of my bridal party to find what would work best with their coloring and their outfit. Along with myself and my bridesmaids, she also did a special look for my mom and gram, both of who did not want fancy makeup, and they looked amazing -- like themselves, but better! Our makeup lasted all day too! She was very relaxed and was a fun addition to my wedding morning.

Planning a wedding from a different city is not easy, but I was lucky enough to have found Julie for my makeup and I am incredibly grateful. She was incredibly responsive to my emails and calls, and wonderful to deal with. The day of the wedding she was cool calm and collected while there were, at times, up to eleven people wandering around and two fragile flower girls. To top it off, the makeup for myself and my bridesmaids was stunning- we received compliments all day long! She is a must for all Pittsburgh brides, and a steal at what she charges you! Feel free to contact me for any questions or pictures of her work!

Julie did a great job with the makeup for myself, my mother, and all of my bridal party. I do not usually wear a lot of makeup, and Julie was able to give me a look that I felt totally comfortable with. I was myself, only better! Everything was completely natural looking, but she brought out my best features. The makeup stayed on almost all day, which is saying a lot for a hot June day in Pittsburgh. Everybody thought that she did a great job on their makeup as well. I would easily recommend her for anybody's wedding.

I would absolutely 100% recommend Julie to anyone looking to have amazing makeup for their wedding (or for any other special occasion). She is very easy to work with and has a very calming presence on your wedding day when you may be a little bit nervous:) She arrived on time and did makeup for my mother, three BMs and myself. Everyone LOVED her work and thought she was very sweet. The pics look great and no one felt like they were "overdone". Definitely call Julie!

Julie was professional, friendly, adaptable and sweet! She was always very flexible about my makeup - I had two trials before the wedding because I was paranoid about my makeup on the actual day - and willing to work with me as I figured out what I wanted. On the actual wedding day, she worked with a variety of types of faces to put together a really polished look for each of my bridesmaids and my mom! The pictures reflect what an amazing job she did - they turned out wonderfully. Everyone was really happy with their makeup - even my mom, who tends to be very particular with her makeup - and everyone commented on how nice Julie was and how she put them at ease. She also has great products and is willing to order you things if she doesn't have them. Julie was really everything I was looking for in a makeup artist, and I would wholeheartedly recommend her to any bride!

JULIE IS AMAZING!!!
I had her do my wedding makeup, 6 bridesmaids and 2 moms. WOW...we looked fabulous! I wanted all glam...the heavy makeup, lips and lashes...which are a must! Your pictures will look amazing! My girls looked so gorgeous! I had a trial run with her, so I already knew how I was going to look.

Julie arrived so early and constantly worked. She dressed professional and was ready to get moving. I was running behind, and she was still able to get me finished and ready.

This expense is a MUST! My friends have already asked for her number for upcoming events. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Julie was an amazing makeup artist. She made myself and my bridal party look flawless on wedding day. She is very easy going and made us all feel very comfortable. The makeup she uses is top of the line and stayed on all throughout the night. I would highly recommend using her for not only your wedding, but any special event you might want to feel extra special.

Julie was great! Not only did she do an amazing job with my wedding make-up, she was very easy to deal with. She was courteous and professional, but easy-going and approachable at the same time. She kept her schedule flexible to the extent she could and even stayed longer to do touch-ups before the reception. She was fabulous! I highly recommend her!

When it came to makeup for my wedding day, I knew I wanted a professional doing the job! I wanted to look natural, and at the same time glamorous. I found Julie through a web search and emailed her immediately. I was impressed by her website which was full of information, pictures, and reviews.

After a few emails back and forth we discussed on the phone the specifics of what I was looking for and what I needed for that day. After signing a contract and putting down a very reasonable deposit, we arranged for a trial run appointment. Upon arriving I was in awe of her studio. It had professional lighting, comfortable seating, and Julie offered myself and a bridesmaid refreshments. At the trial run, Julie took her time explaining the products she used and gave me several books to look through in order to come up with my expectations for the wedding day makeup. The trial run was about an hour, and at the end of it we had a clear idea of what I would look like on my wedding day!

The day of the wedding Julie arrived early and set up shop prepared to do makeup for six people. She worked non-stop, and each bridesmaid was pleased with how their makeup turned out. Julie is an expert with timing each person's application, and her technique insures that the final look will last the entire day! Julie ordered me a tube of lipstick and gloss that I could take with me to reapply when necessary. A few of us also did fake eyelashes, which looked elegant and glamorous! Everyone came away from the experience looking and feeling beautiful!

I would reccomend Julie to any bride who wants to feel pampered on their special day! Her pricing is reasonable and she is definitely worth every penny! She takes the time to get to know you, makes you feel comfortable, and even talks you through your nerves! She is a full service makeup artist with an extraordinary talent! I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

Julie was absolutely amazing!! When I had some last minute cancellations, she was able to still accommodate me. She canceled her plans to run in the Pittsburgh Marathon to do my make-up. She did such an amazing job!! It looked flawless, natural and classic, and better yet it, it stayed all night, and even into the next morning. Julie was absolutely amazing.

Julie was amazing! She took so much time during my "trial run" to make sure that I would look like a better version of me on my wedding day. She was so helpful and made me feel comfortable! She did an amazing job with two of my bridesmaids as well. I would reccomend her to EVERYONE I know that is getting married. She was professional, down to earth, reasonably priced and great to work with!

THANKS JULIE!

Julie provided service far beyond my expectations. She was absolutely great from her quick responsiveness to my questions to arriving on time and finishing on time the day of the wedding. I absolutely loved my makeup and liked the fact that she worked with me to get the desired look for the day. All of my bridesmaid had nothing but good things to say and I really liked that their makeup looked very natural. Couldn't have asked for a better makeup artist!

The make-up Julie did for all of us was amazing! I am very picky, and it was perfect. I cried a lot from beginning to end on my wedding day, and my make-up looked the same at the end as it did in the beginning, no smearing or wearing off at all! She was so nice and professional, I would recommend her services to anyone!
