I wish I could give more stars because I can't say enough great things about my wedding day experience. I was referred to Glow by Natalia by several people and inquired with her for 9 services for my February wedding back in the summer. I had my wedding makeup trial with her the day of my birthday and not only did my makeup last from morning to extremely late hours, my makeup lasted through a mask on two plane rides. Natalia made me feel so incredibly comfortable in our phone consult and then again in person for my trial. The experience with my trial was nothing short of luxurious. I was prepped with a steam before application and trust me, this is a game changer my skin has never felt so great with makeup on. The entire process from inquiry/consultation to application was collaborative and Natalia made sure I felt confident in each step of her process as well as each step of application. She curated the perfect look for my wedding and then I'm wedding day was my biggest cheerleader and source of calm. Natalia 100% supported me on wedding day by creating a space for me to be calm, centered, and present. She was an advocate for me with all of the chaos and noise in the other room and kept me feeling my best the entire day. My entire bridal party left the makeup room looking and feeling so confident and each had a unique and positive experience with her... not to mention the makeup FLAWLESS and GORGROUS on each and every one of us. Our makeup lasted the entire night through sweat, tears, an accidental alcohol shower, and hours of dancing. I've never had more compliments and I have never felt prettier and more confident while wearing makeup and that is reflective in our photos. I would recommend Natalia for any and all makeup needs because her experience is next level and worth every single penny. read more

Natalia's services are hands down 5 star worthy! I met Natalia when I was a bridesmaid in my friend's wedding. In full disclosure I was extremely skeptical about having my makeup done, but I went along with the process like any good bridesmaid should. In fact, I had a backup plan to "fix" my own makeup after the makeup artist was done, like I've had to do with every other wedding that I've been in. To my utter shock, I absolutely loved the final product. Natalia was able to work with my fair complexion and red hair, which is not an easy feat, unlike anyone else I've ever worked with. Not only did she pick out color palettes that matched my skin perfectly, but they complemented my features. Even better, I still looked like myself! I didn't feel too done up or coated in heavy layers of makeup, and I can honestly say that this was the first time in my life that I left my wedding makeup on all night. Aside from the fact that she's one of the most stylish women to watch while you're having your makeup done, she's extremely personable and talented. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and I cannot recommend her enough! read more

Natalia was hands down the BEST wedding decision I made (besides my husband). I mean this with the most sincerity in all of my heart. I would say it on a lie detector + under oath. Cross my heart. She worked with me for months prior to the wedding helping me perfect the vision I had for hair and make up. I sent her a ton of Instagram and Pinterest inspo pictures, and she responded to every single one studying the looks and understanding what aspects would enhance my bone structure and compliment my complexion. *I have never felt more beautiful in my own skin and with my own features.* She also offered her Style Assist services and stayed at the wedding the entire evening making sure my hair and make up were perfect in every photo. Beyond the artist in Natalia is a kind, calm, and collected woman who stayed by my side the entire day keeping me calm, reminding me to drink water, helping me breathe through my anxiety, and encouraging me to live in the moment. She is a forever friend, and words do not do her work justice. I am so grateful for everything she did for our wedding. read more

If you are looking for that make-up GLOW you need Natalia! Save yourself the research and book her! Natalia did my glow for my engagement photos, and I was nervous; as someone who has never had professional make-up done, I didn't know what to expect or even how to explain what I like or what I thought would look good! She came in, and I immediately felt at ease as she explained her techniques and shared her wisdom on what would work best for me and my skin. Plus, she was also so fun to work with because while she is working and starts feeling her artistry, you only become more excited to see the finished product! Also, I have to say her talent and fantastic personality aside, she came to my family's home for the session and rolled with a full house of craziness and kids! She took me from bare face and frizz to ready to take the stage next to Beyonce! The hype is real, the talent is unmatched, and I would book her again for any special event (and selfishly every day if I could). read more

Natalia's calming, grounding and uplifting energy on my wedding day was the feeling every bride should have on her day. Through all the chaos that took place, she was my anchor on that day and I am forever grateful for her presence. Natalia's service delivery isn't just about makeup, it goes beyond that and it's the reason why there is no makeup artist out there like her. She's thoughtful and kind, takes the time to understand your needs, and caters to what is important to you. She's intentional about how she wants you to feel on your day and guides you throughout the process. You feel empowered in her presence, loved, cared for, and heard. Natalia's artistry is catered to who you are as opposed to a cookie-cutter process and it shows in many ways. I couldn't have imagined not having her by my side on my wedding day and she played a pivotal role to my mental well-being. read more

I loved every moment with Natalia! Getting my hair and makeup done is usually a great experience, but she brought that extra finesse with the overall effect! I was Wowed with the results, and not only that, her positive and bubbly personality really made me want to use her again for my next photoshoot! She knew how to give me that encouragement and confidence towards my shoot too! That meant so much to me to have someone who can have the skill and talent with beauty but apply that "extra personable touch" with how much she truly cares about her customers that makes her shine and glow apart from anyone else! I recommend her in the highest level for any wedding, special event, occasion, or (if you're like me) just want to pamper yourself beautiful! She's the BEST! read more

I just finished my first appointment with Natalia & it will not be my last! I had a 1 on 1 makeup lesson & she is so amazing!! I was instructed to bring my own makeup & brushes, which makes so much sense. She watches you apply one side of your face step by step & then she will start the other side. Teaching you as she goes. I really learned a lot & she takes time to explain the "why's"...why you use a certain brush, technique or product to get the best result for Your Individual Skin! She is such a light & I enjoyed every minute. I can only imagine how amazing her facials are or the gift of having her apply your entire makeup for a special event. Thank you Natalia, You are such a talented artist & you really made my day!! Traci read more

I feel truly lucky to have worked with Natalia on my special day! She came highly recommended from a close friend and there was an instant connection the minute we met which is important for someone to understand your vision. Natalia is so knowledgable, she was able to help me curate my look when my own vision seemed scattered. She was patient, attentive, flexible and kind. The day-of she kept us on schedule, worked around unexpectedly having small kiddos running around and executed the best look that represented me. I've never felt as gorgeous as I did that day. Our pictures only look as amazing as they did because of her. Can't thank her enough and looking forward to working with her again. read more

Well, first I'd like to start by saying I wish I had more stars to rate Glow by Natalia Barlow!! She has the best techniques, makeup, and artistry I've ever seen. I've had the pleasure of working with her on multiple occasions for a variety of photo shoots and I absolutely adore her! Not only is she magical with the brushes, but she has the the most genuine soul. She makes you feel so pretty and confident and her energy just lights up the room! Super gentle when applying makeup and really professional! Ever since our first shoot together, I REFUSE to use anyone else. She comes where I go because I know with Glow by Natalia Barlow I will look fabulous every time!! read more

I have had Natalia for two different shoots! One being a more dramatic theme and the other for a boudoir. Natalia asked for my opinion on how I wanted to look and feel and she nailed it each time! You can see the care and passion she has for her work and clients. Her goal was for me to feel confident in myself and that is exactly what she did for me. I am intimidated in front of a camera and she was able to bring out my inner glow and put me in the right mindset to be ready for each shoot. I am very grateful to have had the pleasure to work with her. If I hadn't already booked my wedding MUA - I would have booked Natalia in a heartbeat for such an important day. read more

Words cannot express how grateful and blessed I felt since the first day we met. Your energy, your passion and magic were everything I needed and more to glow on our special day. You treated with love and thoughtfulness not only myself but my mothers as well. I fell so honor when you mentioned my vision helped you to take your business to the next level and I am so glad to have pushed that decision as I know other brides will get to experience what I did. Thank you again for your kindness, art and professionalism on this magical day in my life. You are amazing and your business will blossom in unexpected ways. read more

Natalia did my hair for my son's wedding on 5/13/22 and she exceeded my expectations by magically transforming me into the glamorous mother of the groom I had wanted to be. From the moment we booked her, Natalia was responsive and focused on curating the look that would be right for me. During the session, I had her undivided attention and I felt extremely pampered and listened to. She is a thoroughly warm, professional, skilled make-up artist and made the whole experience an exciting journey of discovery into my unknown glamorous self. Thank you Natalia - I definitely glowed at the wedding. read more

I definitely recommend Natalia for any Glow Up needs! I had the pleasure of having Natalia do my makeup for My maternity and newborn session shoot, and as a new momma of 2 under two you kind of forget to take care of yourself but Natalia gave me my confidence back with the end results. Natalia's personality is amazing and it shows through her work. She is your biggest cheerleader through the whole process and I cannot thank her enough for making me feel beautiful again. I will definitely be using Natalia again in the future!! read more

This was the best experience of my young daughters life. On March 30,2019 my Daughter had an appointment with another young lady to do her makeup for Prom and she canceled last minute . Needless to say Super Mom had to step in and make it right. God sent me another Super Woman in the amazing Natalia . She made my Daughters day and saved my life. She made us feel so welcome and special. Thank you again for the love you have officially become our Makeup Artist Extraordinaire Tamela and Ainee Wynn read more

Don't hesitate, you're in great hands. Service is professional with kindness and impeccable glow! I'm typically not a fan of makeup because these days, it often appears as a mask with a totally different face. Natalie provides a glow like no other. She's informative and a perfectionist of her craft. Her natural glow services provide awesome enhanced beauty. She's a gift. You'll be crowned not clowned. She's my go to in Tampa Bay & I'd like to pack her in my suitcase for trips/vacations. read more

Energetically aligned. Intuitive. Caring. Gentle. Brilliant. These are a few of the many words I would use to describe Natalia. For a day, I wasn't the one making all the decisions. I allowed Natalia to intuitively paint on a canvas (my face) to express my beauty through her eyes. Thank you, Love, for a wonderful, relaxing time. Thank you for helping me Glow for my branding photography shoot. xoxo, Sarah Sparks read more

I just can't say enough about Natalia. This is the second time we used her to do my daughter's makeup and hair. First and foremost, she made my daughter feel special and beautiful before even the first stroke of makeup. She is a true artist but even a better person who see the beauty in her clients first and then brings that out with her makeup artistry. Thank you for making my daughter's prom so special!!! read more

Natalia has done my makeup for headshots twice now and has surpassed my expectations both times! She really listened to what I wanted and worked with me to achieve the desired look. She was thoughtful and intuitive and even used some of my own makeup to help make sure I looked like myself in my photos. I have had my makeup done a number of times and Natalia was the best I've had. She is an artist! read more

I saw Natalia for her Microdermabrasion Facial and will continue to see her leading up to my wedding (and most definitely after it as well!). Natalia is professional and a true joy to be around. She is very knowledgeable about skin and products, and truly cares about her clients. Highly recommend scheduling an appointment with Natalia to get your skin looking and feeling great! read more
