She was so kind and made me feel comfortable
Male did my make up for a charity gala I had recently. She was so kind and made me feel comfortable right away. To me this is huge- having that connection with the make up artist and feeling at ease. She had me show her a picture of my dress, asked what my hopes were for my make up and then showed me what she thought would look good given my skin tone, face and eye shape, and dress color. She is super knowledgeable about what color palettes to use and what brands are best. She truly customized the entire experience just for me. She was professional and timely and her prices are extremely fair. My make up was flawless! My whole family was blown away and what a fantastic job Male did. I would use her again in a heart beat! Thanks, Male!

Male is such an incredible makeup artist
I was thrilled with the way my makeup looked in our professional photos. I don’t wear a lot of makeup on a regular basis and she struck the perfect balance between looking lovely in our pictures and still feeling like myself. Plus, she’s so warm and friendly and made the whole experience perfect. Couldn’t recommend her more!

Good vibes, togetherness and beautiful makeovers
Good vibes, togetherness and beautiful makeovers - this woman-owned and run business is such a pleasure to work with! Male (Mah-Lay) is reliable, easy to connect with, and is truly talented at giving you the style you’re looking for. I highly recommend her for your wedding party! I look forward to going to her again for smaller events. 💕

Maria is such a talented and wonderful person to work with!
Maria is such a talented and wonderful person to work with! She did my bridesmaids’ and my makeup at my wedding! It was so beautiful and she took her time to make sure everything was perfect! She is such a wonderful person inside and out, and I had the best experience working with her. She took her time to make sure I was comfortable and worked really hard in preparing everything for my big day! She came on time and we went over exactly what I wanted weeks prior to the wedding! I am someone who never wears makeup, but Maria knew exactly what would help me look beautiful! She took her time to listen to my concerns and worked really hard behind the scenes to help put together a great look for my big day! I will definitely call her again for any future occasions to do my makeup! She was overall a great person to work it, and I highly recommend her to anyone else who is looking for a makeup artist!

Male is a true gem
Male is a true gem. She put me at ease the minute I booked her as my bridesmaids are so unique and I wanted a stylist to be able to work with a variety of skin tones. She did my trial early for my engagement pics and I looked incredible. My Fiancé asked if I could do it more often haha. Can't wait for my wedding day

Thank you Male for helping with my special day!
Male was so friendly and approachable! She had a great balance of listening to the kind of look I wanted and going with her expertise of what looked best on me. I’m not a lashes person, but Male has the best natural looking lashes that enhance the look and aren’t too heavy. If I had a concern about something, she was very attentive to change it to how I wanted. Male made all of my bridesmaids’ makeup look cohesive while modifying it to fit each person. She is great at the perfect mix of natural and glam. I still felt like I looked like myself. Thank you Male for helping with my special day!

She gave me a breathtaking glamorous look
Absolutely amazing !! Maria was so patient and so kind. She really cares about what she does, and she gave me a breathtaking glamorous look. She treated me like an individual and not just a number. She puts 100% into everything she does and you will enjoy your time with her! I am quite picky about my make up and she absolutely exceeded my expectations.
