Really disappointed in the way this vendor handled our conversation. Once I inquired about a 30/45…read moreminute earlier arrival (due to photographer demands) she added on a $50 fee in order to arrive earlier than before discussed. Fine, this fee was additional for her time I get it, but I wrote back saying I wanted to speak to my husband regarding the price increase and then just generally asked if we could do 30/45 minutes earlier instead of an hour and a half as she suggested/ so it wasn't so early and she was quick to say we wouldn't be a good match. I never questioned her pricing or work, I was just inquiring about a later start time to sleep in a bit more when a full day of events is ahead. I was quite upset with how she handled the conversation and was so quick to turn away working together due to making an assumption that I didn't want to pay or that I wanted a discount? I never asked nor mentioned anything about a discount or lowering her price. It is a shame because I wanted to work together and had no issues with the pricing for the services provided- I just wanted to clear with my husband (especially since he's the one paying for and driving me to the event hence why timing is important). Wouldn't recommend her because of the way this scenario went. I am planning on using another hair/makeup artist that will not act this way. 2 stars because she is responsive via email. So I'll be fair and give credit when it comes to her communication.

I decided not to book Marci because: 1. She was late to the…read moretrial. 2. She was unprepared for the trial (she did not bring airbrush makeup). 3. She applied makeup in a heavy and sloppy manner (overdrawn lips, muddy cheeks, obvious eye brows, patchy foundation, wrong color foundation). 4. She applied a liquid highlighter and it streaked down my cheek, but she never corrected it (among other mess ups she did not correct). 5. She used heavy and cheap false eye lashes. 6. She was unresponsive during the trial when I told her I was not happy with how the makeup turned out. 7. The updo she gave me fell out approximately 1 hour later. I didn't even go outside with it. 8. She cashed both the trial and deposit checks (a total of $408) despite my expressed unhappiness with her work.

Kristen was absolutely fantastic! I would HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend her to any bride looking for an…read moreamazing make-up artist in the NYC area. I had a trial with another makeup artist but was looking for a more natural look for my wedding day since I didn't want to not look like myself or look too overdone plus my now Husband doesn't like me with too much makeup on. I did browsing on the Knot and came across Kristen's profile and instantly feel in love with the pictures and the "natural" look she had on her brides. When I found out she was still available on my wedding date, I was ecstatic and quickly set up my trial to lock her in for my big day. Not only was she super flexible with scheduling my trial (she actually did it on my birthday to make me feel even more special that day :) ) but her laid back energy and down to earth vibe made me feel so relaxed and at ease not only at my trial but on my wedding day. Of course the day before my wedding out of nowhere, a huge pimple popped up right by my lip. In a panic the night before I popped it but the next day it was really red and still peeling (gross I know), but Kristen SAVED THE DAY and covered it up completely to the point that you couldn't even tell that I had a breakout. Kristen is fantastic to work with and is truly an expert - she's worked in the industry for years and is developing her own stuff which I can't wait to purchase in the future! I cannot recommend her enough and truly thank her for making me look beautiful on my wedding day.

I did not want to look "painted" or, not like myself. Kristen not only listened to my concerns, and acknowledged them, but she also was able to do my make up in a way that not only accentuated my features, and gave me a soft, feminine look that lasted literally all day. I have never felt so beautiful! Not only did my make up hold up, and look amazing from 9am to 10pm, she also did an incredible job on my bridesmaids as well. We all looked our best, and I'm so thankful for Kristen's expertise, and ease to be around.

Every single person - younger or older, found you to be incredibly talented and professional. Thank you for waking up super early on my wedding day to (somehow) transform seven women and still have time for touch-ups. My mom, who is on the older side, was literally transformed and you helped her feel confident and beautiful on a very important day.
