I've been seeing Vanessa for my permanent makeup for at least 7 years. She does by far the most natural work I've ever seen and I only trust her with my face. Brows, Smokey eyeliner, and lips! Her face needling is also the most effective treatment I've ever done for my skin. Way better than expensive lasers that only made my skin more sensitive to the sun. Vanessa does permanent makeup, not micro blading which is so damaging to the skin! She is a true artist who knows color and makeup! I've dropped some pics of my brows after a touch up where she adds warmth. And my lips are a before and after. Second pic wearing only a clear gloss. I showed her the lipstick shade I use and she matched it perfectly! I have sent many of my clients to Vanessa for permanent makeup and not one has ever been unhappy. Along with talent, you will enjoy Vanessa's beautiful personality! Thank you Vanessa for being so talented! read more

My eyebrows have thinned probably from over plucking and getting older. Vanessa is amazing! She has amazing technique to make it look so natural. And she got the color right too. I'm super happy I went to Vanessa. My colleague saw me on a "zoom" call a couple of days after and messaged me after to say how amazing my brows looked. She didn't even know I got them permanently done. I highly recommend her and trust her. read more

Permanent Makeup By Vanessa - Less than 24 hours after I got my brows done. - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

Yay! I finally have eyebrows!! A few months ago I had my eyebrows "permanently" shaped by Vanessa. I'm a bit of a baby when it comes to pain and this wasn't bad at all. She numbed the area and now I don't have to touch them while getting ready in the morning. (I have a 2 1/2 year old toddler so it's hard to put my makeup on). After loving the brows, Vanessa gave me a "Lash Enhancement". It's like permanent liner but between the eyelashes. I didn't know if I wanted permanent eyeliner so we opted for this. I'm SO happy! Even when I'm not wearing makeup, my eyes still "POP".... Another thing, no one even knows that it's permanent makeup. She uses hair strokes so it's more realistic than the typical "blue brows" I'm sure you've seen around town. She also did my makeup for my anniversary and I felt like a celebrity. She's an artist, that's for sure! read more

What an amazing artist I came in with tattooed eyebrows that I had done at a tattoo parlor when I was 20 not thinking twice about what I was getting myself into. I came to Vanessa because I heard she was not only skilled in permanent make up but she is a gifted artist. She was able to do an amazing job even with the previous work I had done she was able to fix it and make my eyebrows look like real eyebrows and I had no hair whatsoever because of having them waxed when I was really young and being a blonde. I can't wait to go back to have my lips done as well this Wednesday read more

Vanessa is knowledgeable but unreliable with her appointments. She cancelled her appointment 20 minutes before... as I was driving over to her. I have now heard from friends who were clients that the same thing has happened to them numerous times. Cancelling less than an hour before an appointment is not acceptable. Clients need to take time off work or get babysitting in order to make appointments. I hope that she can get control of her calendar. read more

Vanessa did my eyebrows about 5 years ago and they still look amazing. Did not fade into a strange color....stayed true!!! I highly recommend her and I'm super picky!!!! read more

Permanent Makeup By Vanessa - Permanent Makeup Near Me - Rancho Mirage, California

Vanessa has an incredible ability to make you look your absolute best using minimal makeup. I know six other woman who have had their makeup done by her that would say the same thing. I had a terrible time finding someone to do my wedding makeup and truly feel blessed to have found Vanessa in Palm Desert. Everyone asked who did my makeup. She is truly one of the best in her profession. You can also get a trial run if you happen to catch her at the Trish counter at the Palm Desert Saks. read more

I went to the cosmetic surgery institute in palm desert looking for options about treatment on deep acne scars. I was then referred to Vanessa. She did collagen inductions on my acne scars. I was very skeptical on how well the procedure would work. (As some of these scars were very deep) after my first treatment I began to see instant results! After 4 treatments my face looks amazing and has very little evidence of ever having scaring. There is a reason I travel over 2000 miles to have this procedure done by her! She is a very caring and honest professional to be around. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone! read more

Look no further! I would recommend Vanessa to absolutely anyone who is interested in permanent makeup! Not only is she incredibly talented but she is also very caring and professional. I considered permanent makeup for a long while before I decided to book with Vanessa about three years ago. With a 15+ year background in makeup artistry and color cosmetics, I had seen many people with terrible looking permanent makeup over the years (wrong color, wrong brow shape, botched lip liner, etc...) so even though I liked the idea of no longer having to apply brow pencil or eye liner every morning, I was nervous about selecting the right makeup artist for me until I met Vanessa at an event in the Palm Springs area. I was eventually sold when I began to see her work on other women I know, specifically women who have a great deal of disposable income who I know could afford to hire ANY makeup artist they wanted...and they chose VANESSA! One woman I know didn't have any eyebrows when I met her and the next time I saw her she had the most natural looking brows with beautiful shape/color, which totally complimented her face...all as a result of Vanessa's precision and attention to detail! Vanessa's service is coveted by the elite, and everyone I know who has had work done by her has been ecstatic about the results. I even referred by best friend and my mom who are also both very pleased. She truly listens to her clients as to what they want to achieve and then offers her professional opinion to come up with a solution for her to achieve. Not only is Vanessa an exceptional artist, but she is one of the best in the industry for permanent makeup. I envision her teaching others the art that she has come to perfect. Vanessa is the best of the best. Permanent makeup saves so much time in my morning routines. I am so glad I did it and I tell all my friends to do it! read more

I checked out a couple of other artists before deciding on Vanessa. The main thing that I found important is she listened! I told her what I was after and she then added her thoughts and explained the procedure in detail. She didn't suggest things I didn't want and was very helpful in choosing colors. Vanessa knows her business very well and helps you make the right choices. The facility is very relaxing and the staff is great. I'm very happy with my results and would highly recommend Vanessa. read more

Vanessa is fantastic for permanent make-up! I'd been to another professional for such in the past with decent results but they had long faded. So when it came time to do it again I got three separate recommendations to see Vanessa. At my consultation, Vanessa used makeup pencils on my brows and eyes to show me what I could expect from permanent brows and liner. At my appointment a few weeks later, I found Vanessa to be a master at her art. She was gentle, professional and approached my session with the eye of a makeup artist and a tattoo artist, the perfect combination. She erred on the conservative side in my results in my first session, but used the heavier hand that I requested at my touch up appointment a few weeks later. I could not be happier with my results! My goal was to be able to roll out of bed and only apply mascara for the day and Vanessa definitely achieved that. She matched my brow and liner colors perfectly and gave me a totally natural look. I will never go without permanent makeup again thanks to Vanessa; she has a client for life! read more
