Call it a fate or blessing, I met Nancia through some other engagements and learnt she was a professional makeup artist. I already liked her for her upbeat & friendly personality, but after checking her profile & seeing that she had experience with Indian makeup, I asked her to do my makeup & hair for my recent wedding. Indian bridal makeup & hair do is not easy or simple at all but Nancia found ways to make it happen. She understood what type of makeup we wanted. She did makeup & hair for both my mom's, makeup for my 2 sister-in-laws and my hair & makeup touch-up for reception as well. I kept adding more services and she was so accommodating. She arrived early and made us all look beautiful. My bridal party were all impressed with her. Actually she did way more than just my makeup & hair. She also set up all my Indian jewelries, including the bindiya & tika for wedding & reception. She also set up my veil & made sure it stayed :D I had the heaviest veil ever, which needed to stay on for at least 3 hrs. At the end of the day, my veil was perfect. I found few Indian ladies who do this at an outrageous rate $$$ Nancia did an amazing makeup for me & my bridal party. Least I knew how awesome she will be as a person. She is not only an excellent makeup & hair artist, but also a very friendly, helpful and humble person at heart. She was accommodating with schedule and services. It was fun working with her and I can truly say she will remind a good friend. read more

When I first called Nancia I knew she was super nice and caring. It simply shows in her voice. I was able to change my time so that I can get my make up done at an earlier time. She was really helpful and gave information when I didn't understand some things. She was also very willing to change a few things that I wanted such as blending more. She is kind and funny. Overall, you will not be disappointed at all. Most definitely will come to her again when I need my make up done! read more

First, I want to say how sweet Nancia is. She is also very accommodating. I had to go to a wedding and she did my make up on Easter Sunday. I never had make up applied professionally before so I did not know what to expect. Nancia asked me what my preferences were and she went from there. Nancia was great and make up was perfect. It stayed on all night. I felt like a model! lol! I will definitely go back to Nancia. She is a true professional. I received lots of compliments. Her work speaks for itself. read more

Nancia is my go-to make-up artist from now on. She is so detailed, personable, and reliable! I called her two days before my boudoir photoshoot because my old make-up artist cancelled on me last minute. Nancia was able to come to my rescue and she was very reasonably priced! She travels anywhere in SD; she came to my apartment and did her magic there. I've had my make-up done before by other artists, but it didnt look good. My boyfriend says I look better without make-up, but this time he actually loved how my make-up was done! You guys can see the pics for yourself (Of course not the x-rated pics). I wanted her to focus on my eyes since I'm Asian, and she did a fantastic job! I have my own event planning business and I will definitely make her my preferred make-up artist to all my brides and celebrants! read more

CreateMe Makeup Artistry - Sorry for the bad quality. It's only a proof. - Makeup Artists Near Me

I hired Nancia two weeks before my wedding after finding her on Yelp. Her email responses were PROMPT, professional and friendly. She was accomodating about coming to me on my wedding day and was also flexible about the trial date and time I opted to go with her airbrush finish at the trial and loved the results. Afterwards, we tweaked a few things and I really appreciated that Nancia wrote down all the tweaks so we could replicate what i wanted on my wedding day. In fact I was so happy with my makeup trial in general that I spent the next hour at home taking selfies which isn't something I do on the regular! On the day of my wedding, Nancia was there right on time. I was very reassured because she was in contact with me the whole day so I knew she would show up. My makeup turned out perfect! I was a noticeably way better looking version of my normal self without feeling like I had makeup caked on. My makeup stayed on perfectly throughout my beach wedding and photo shoot. I would definitely hire Nancia for any of my future makeup needs and highly recommend her for your wedding makeup! Also, this girl is highly reasonable so you should contact her NOW if you are looking for someone to do your makeup. read more

An exceptionally talented makeup artist! After meeting Nancia for a makeup consultation/trial for my wedding to see if we were a good fit, I was completely amazed on her ability. It was clear there was no need to look any further. On my wedding day I looked amazing and my makeup was flawless all through the ceremony and reception. Nancia also did two of my bridesmaid's makeup before my makeup at which we all looked flawless. The rest of the bridesmaids were wishing she did their makeup. She truly has a talent for bringing the best look out of anyone. Highly Recommended! read more

Nancia was awesome. I hired her for my wedding and due to a couple different family emergencies I ended up not doing a trial until TWO DAYS before the wedding! This was nerve-wracking since if the trail went poorly I would basically be stuck doing my own makeup. Thankfully, Nancia was professional, sweet, and very talented! My makeup was outstanding. It looked natural but highlighted my best features. I was worried about my eye make up standing out since I wear glasses but it was the perfect balance. And my make up STAYED IN PLACE through an outdoor ceremony, tons of crying, lots hugging and a total of 12 hours! I looked at myself just before bed and was shocked. It was basically exactly the same as when Nancia finished with me! I think she locks her makeup in with magic and super glue! Highly, HIGHLY recommended! You are not going to beat the price for this quality work. Plus, you'll get to chat with this awesome lady! read more

If you want a makeup artist who is easy to work with, flexible, and extremely talented, then you should be working with CreateMe. I hired Nancia for a marketing photo shoot because I needed someone to make up the models and I didn't have an exact number of people to quote for her. She arrived early to the shoot and set up her work area quickly. I had a line of people for her to work on and she was positive and detailed as the shoot went on for several hours. I now have the photos from the project and Nancia's handiwork truly shows. She brought out the beauty of the models and she is a wonderful person to partner with. I highly recommend her and plan to use her talents in future projects. read more

I had never had my makeup done professionally and when Nancia offered to do my makeup for my June wedding I was thrilled and jumped on the opportunity! Nancia is very professional and does beautiful work! We did a trial run and she really took my considerations to heart and on the day of my wedding I felt so incredibly beautiful! The airbrushing technique she uses for your foundation is so light on your face it makes it feel as if you have nothing on! It was great coverage and it felt so natural which I absolutely loved! I would highly recommend Nancia for any of your makeup needs, she will take care of you and make you look beyond your gorgeous self for any occasion!! read more

Nancia is the best! I hired her to do my makeup for a Priscilla Presley costume and she did a fantastic job transforming my look in a very short amount of time. She came to my house right on time, and was so professional, detailed and nice. I sent her photos ahead of our appointment of the 1960s Priscilla and she had already made a drawing that she had brought of how she would execute the look. An hour later, I was totally transformed. She also does a great job in applying false eyelashes, as she did for one of my friends who was over as well. Thank you so much Nancia, I would hire her anytime for any of my makeup needs! read more

Nancia was amazing. She did my hair and makeup for an upscale wedding in orange county. The BEST makeup i have ever had done.

She is such a nice person too, so chatting throughout the process made the whole experience of getting dolled up lots of fun. I highly recommend her! I was complimented repeatedly throughout the day and I still get people commenting on my photos. I am definitely going to be coming to her again for all my makeup needs. read more

Nancia is awesome! i was flying into SD late for Halloween, and with only 7 days notice she was able to squeeze me in. she was extremely flexible when arranging our time and location. i went with the extremely popular Calavera (sugar skull) theme this Halloween. we swapped several photos of examples beforehand, and i let her pick which one she wanted to recreate. she, of course, picked my favorite one! needless to say, i was very pleased with the results, and i received numerous compliments throughout the night. i would highly recommend Nancia to anyone looking for some amazing makeup skills in the SD area! read more

I emailed Nancia to help me with a creative idea for Halloween. She was able to book a convenient appointment for me and even offered to come to me. She arrived exactly on time. I was SO HAPPY with my makeup! We did a "Spider Queen" look which consisted of 3 extra pairs of eyes plus scary spider jaws. It was cool and creepy and people were scared of me all night, just what I wanted. Nancia was totally sweet and super professional, she had everything she needed with her and had done homework, including sketches, to help improve on the original idea. So I got a one of a kind design and I loved it. Would book her again in a second. read more

I hired Nancia to do my engagement shoot and even though she was in San Diego and I was up in LA, she was very reasonably priced and even with the travel fee, she was still cheaper than all of these other places I looked at. Nancia was fantastic and I can't say enough about her! I wanted a natural look, but still wanted the make-up to stand out in the pictures and she did exactly that. The best part is, she was very easy to talk to so the time just flew by and before you know it, she was done! I would definitely hire her again to do my make-up and if my wedding was local, she would be my #1 choice to do my wedding make-up, as well. read more

I contacted Nancia over the phone. I knew right away she had a great personality. You'll see for yourself. She arrived to my home on time, and had all the make up she needed. I told her I wanted Halloween make up and I wanted to be a Witch. She asked me, "A pretty Witch or an ugly Witch?" and i said, "Pretty." So minutes later. BOOM..I was a pretty Witch. She knew exactly what to do. She even matched my Witch hat and broom. I was so happy with Nancia. I expect her to do my normal make up too. I know I will be calling her soon. I am in the TV industry and I know what make up artist charge. Nancia is very reasonable and very good. Hire her..I promise you I am not related to her, andI just met her, but you'll like her work and her personality. I feel good, knowing I have my own make up artist at my finger tips. You will too. read more

She is a very nice and funny person and she made me feel comfortable. I loved my hair and makeup and it looked great in my pictures. read more

Amazing job! The make up went perfectly with my prom dress and managed to survive the heavy downpour that I walked through on the way to my prom venue. (Unfortunately, my hair was not so lucky to survive the rain, but that was to be expected.) Also, as a stressed out person who doesn't know how to do make up, I had no clue what I wanted to do, but luckily I didn't need to know what I wanted, Nancia already knew what to do and made sure that the make up wasn't too heavy! read more

I needed my makeup and hair done for an 80s themed birthday party. After seeing Nancia's work in her website which showed her wide range of experience from theater to runways to weddings, i thought i would give her a call. Fortunately Nancia was available. She met me at my home. It seemed she came prepared and although she asked me for my ideas, i asked her opinion since had done 80s looks in the past and relied on her to be creative, she knew exactly what to do. It took about an hour and a half. She is a perfectionist, competent and it showed. She uses MAC makeup and her makeup equipment were clean. I loved my makeup and hair! It was so authentic with the bright eye shadows, fuchsia lipstick, and big hair styled with a headband. Totally, like OMG, brought me back to the 80s. Nancia is so talented, i was so fortunate to find her, will use her again and i highly recommend her. read more

Nancia did a great job with doing my hair and makeup and also for my bridesmaids for our wedding. Everyone looked fantastic.

When I contacted Nancia I was freaking out! It was a few days before my wedding and the original make up artist I had booked was no longer available. I am so thankful Nancia was available! She came to my house to do a trial run and I loved it! She was very easy to talk to and I felt very comfortable with her. I also noticed that she is very thorough with her work. The other make up artist I had originally booked rushed through the make up trial while Nancia took her time to get it right and take notes on my preferences. The day of my wedding she was on time and added a sense of calm and security in the middle of chaos (the hairstylist showed up a couple of hours late). My wedding pictures looked great and I would definitely book her again! read more

Had to get my makeup done for friend's wedding and Nancia did a wonderful job! She was prompt with her emails, very nice and will work with whatever look you want.

My makeup stayed on throughout the night and I also got so many compliments! Definitely will recommend her to anyone! read more
