“I have had my makeup professionally done so many times in my life. Every. Single. Time. I hated how it came out and went home and washed it off immediately…until Vanessa! She is a magician. She listened to exactly what I wanted, saw me for me, and enchanted my features with absolutely perfect magazine worthy bridal makeup! I was legitimately shocked when I saw what she had done. I actually LOVED my makeup and the way I looked!! Vanessa will make you the most beautiful version of you on your special day!”

“Vanessa made me look and feel like an absolute princess on my wedding day! I choked back tears when I finally got to see myself in the mirror. Not only does she have amazing hair and makeup skills, her personality and friendliness makes you feel so comfortable and distracts you from any wedding day jitters that you may have. I highly reccomend this lovely lady”
