Desiree was great from the very beginning, she responded promptly, wanted insight on my daughter Prom makeup and customized her makeup just as she requested. I do not wear makeup, but guess who I am calling when I need a make- up artist, yes, Desiree!

She was an absolutely amazing makeup artist — professional, talented, and such a calming presence on our big day. She made my bride feel beautiful, confident, and completely herself. Her attention to detail and skill are unmatched, and the makeup looked flawless all day and night. I couldn’t have asked for anyone better — highly recommend her! 💄✨

I cannot recommend Desireé enough! She did my makeup for my brother-in-law’s wedding and absolutely knocked it out of the park. I received so many compliments throughout the day on how flawless and beautiful my makeup looked—it was all thanks to her incredible talent.
On top of her amazing work, she was so flexible and accommodating with my busy schedule, which I truly appreciated. She made the whole process stress-free and enjoyable. I’m beyond grateful for her and will definitely be booking with her again in the future. Thank you so, so much!

Desiree was great! Showed up on time, no issues and got to work right away. She provided service for several of my bridesmaids and they all looked gorgeous! I even asked her to add one additional lady to the list at the very last minute and she was happy to accommodate. I was already super stressed on my wedding day and Desiree was so professional, timely and easy to work with, she didn’t add any additional stress to my day and I so appreciated her!!
