And I know beautiful is an adjective that gets overused again and again, but in this case, it's really true. Just check out the photos I've included with this review and you'll see what I mean.

I don't wear a lot of make up often so I wanted a more natural look which she nailed. She was super easy/fun to talk to as well. We changed our wedding date a few days prior due to a coming snow storm, and Jen was so accommodating in changing her schedule to fit our new wedding date. She was a lifesaver! I suggest going to her for a trial as well; I did the day before the wedding and had flawless makeup for my rehearsal dinner. This also made for wonderful photos and one less thing to worry about on my wedding day. Choose Kiss and Makeup for your wedding or any special occasion; you won't regret it!

I went to the Brow Bar today and unfortunately my eyebrow technician was 15 minutes late to the…read moreappointment because another client had run late. While I would have appreciated a call letting me know in advance that the appointment would be later than expected, the employees were all very kind and Taylor did an amazing job with my eyebrows and my sister's. The wax she used was also gentle and painless, and she helped us sample Benefit skincare products as well. Also, she was so quick that we weren't even late for the obligation we had afterwards--despite the late start to the appointment. Will be going back!

In the past, I have just walked in and hoped there was an appointment slot open. I usually had to wait 10-15 minutes which is no big deal because you can browse around until they are ready for you. If you aren't wanting to wait, it's best to call ahead and get your name in. Today Mercedes took care of me. She was friendly and started out by asking some questions about my skin. She then proceeded to wax my eyebrows (which were totally out-of-control). The wax was a perfect temperature and it was one of the more painless waxes I have had. At the end of it, she asked if I wanted her to cover the redness with concealer and fill in brows. It looked really natural when she was done. There's nothing worse than feeling like one of those brows-on-fleek Instagram girls who have overdrawn, overstated eyebrows. Payment was easy. You take your ticket to the counter. They will ask you if you would like to add a non-cash tip and you are on your way. I was in and out in 15 minutes. Thanks Mercedes and Benefit Brow Bar, I'll be back the next time I can't handle my eyebrows with just a tweezer.

I felt even more sure of my decision because as she was doing my makeup I could really tell how passionate she is about beauty and makeup! I didn't even have to see what she was doing to know my face looked stunning! If you are getting married, having a fun date night, going to a school dance, or just want to look fierce plain and simple, LeAndra is your woman. I'm telling you, you won't be able to stop staring at the amazing beat and neither will everyone else!

As a previous reviewer, Meredith had mentioned, Candice does an ok job (from the one time I…read moreactually had a service- I had no time to assess what she was really like), but her interpersonal skills are lacking to say the least. And this, in the end makes such a HUGE difference. I also own my own business and have a degree in Marketing and Business Management. Customer Service can make or break a business. So no matter how "good" the product is, if your customer service skills are lacking, you'll lose in the end. As Vince Lombardi said, "It takes months to find a customer, seconds to lose one." And in this day and age where so much is word of mouth, it can be a millisecond when treated badly. In this small town, bad customer service severely hurts businesses. I went in to see Candice the first time a few weeks ago and she was a little cold when I walked in. It was all business. Not much eye contact. I thought it was strange considering it was my first time in. She did an ok job. She seemed rushed. But I wanted to give her another shot for a different service. I had a family emergency a few weeks before with someone in the hospital with a stroke and so I cancelled with her a little over 48 hours in advance and rushed to the hospital in AZ. She said, "Ok" on a text; no "so sorry to hear that" or, "When would you like to reschedule?" ....It was just, "Ok". So I had to reach out to her to reschedule later. No biggie. I just rescheduled. I did think it was weird though. It was like she was doing ME a huge favor. But it was the second time that I came in that really started the ball rolling in negative impact. I came through the door and Candice was in the back and she was in a flurry of emotions. She had a family emergency and was shaking and crying a little. Which I get! She said she just wanted to get out of there to be with her son who may have had covid. I could totally empathize having just gone through an emergency. She said she could still do it, but was shaking and kept saying, "I have no time to numb you!". I told her that family comes first and to please just attend to her son and we could reschedule. I had cleared my whole day for this, but I totally understood. She handed me a container of lidocaine and told me to numb my own face 40 minutes before coming in next time...um...ok...I've never numbed myself but...ok...I just was worried for her and her son. Little did I know that from hearing from others, that she has a temper in general. We confirmed a time for me to reschedule by text and I put it in my phone. Only, I put it in as a half an hour later by accident. So, there I was on the morning of my appointment, numbing my own face (with no instruction from her on how to do this exactly), and I get a text with her saying that she would not take any clients 10 minutes late. Hmmm...I realized my mistake and called her to ask if I could still come in (it was 15 minutes past at that point). She was so angry and said she was "annoyed" at me and said that she "wished me luck" in finding a new provider and no goodbye. Wow. So it seems to me that she slams her clients in there back-to-back and has them do their own numbing. It seemed so strange to me at the time, but now I understand because she books her clients back-to-back and doesn't waste her time numbing clients and has them do it themselves. Word to the wise, do not get on her bad side. She has zero empathy for you. She just wants your business. Too bad. I really wanted to give her another try.
