Yup, I'm tooting my own horn, but if I don't, who will?! Plus, I think every woman should strut their stuff and feel gorgeous, whether it's for a special occasion or just a girl's night out on the town! This review is way overdue because I had my make-up done by the "Melanin Matcher" herself, Ms. Heather, and she did a fabulous job - no, phenomenal job! Why the name "Melanin Matcher?" Glad you asked! Chile, she can literally match ANY skin color/type (and I do mean ANY) to the correct foundation that complements your skin! Guaranteed...No Lie! For the ladies that have tried to get their foundation matched up to their skin tone, you know how difficult that can be. Heather has mastered the science of figuring this out for us! Yesssss!!! Since I follow The Image Concierge on Instagram, I knew she was the perfect person to do my make-up for an upcoming event. I booked my appointment online and any questions I had, I was able to have them answered via email. You have the option of going to Heather's in-home studio or her/staff member coming to your home (for an additional price). I opted for Heather to come to my home. A down payment was required and I was set. She arrived promptly on time and we hit it off instantly. Heather has a very warm and welcoming spirit and her vision for my make-up was spot on with my cocktail attire. As stated before, she did a PHENOMENAL job! We talked about a variety of skincare products, make-up options I could do on my own, and brands that aren't often sought after but are really good. A few months later she had a special make-up presentation at her home and she invited me to attend...just a classy and business savvy lady. I can tell she appreciates her clients and I definitely appreciate her! She's doing big things in the make-up game and I'm glad she was able to assist me on my look that evening. I received many compliments. Thanks again Heather, you made me shine that night. SN: I need to make another appointment, even if I don't have an actual event to attend. I'll just be cute while I'm scrubbing the tub or mopping my kitchen floor. Ha!

It was a pleasure to work with her on my make-up for my professional headshots. She earned the title "melanin matcher" because she can perfectly match your foundation. She helped me find my perfect summer and winter foundation match. I still use the foundation she matched for me. I would recommend her to everyone and for all make-up needs. She also does personal beauty product shopping trips, gives great tips on her IG, and is just an amazing person.

It was a little confusing finding their unit, but I called and they kindly directed me the right way. I was impressed at how efficient Meisha was. Usually bleaching my roots is a 3+ hour appointment, but she cut, bleached and styled my hair in 2.5 hours. Really appreciated that. And the cut and color was the bomb! She really understands hair.
