2 /5 Gladys Mejia: We had 2 makeup artists come in.
Kayleigh: 4 1/2 star rating: She was for my daughter since it was her quinceanera, whom she had met with already. She did great in fixing the previous concerns. She would have gotten a 5 but the eyelash strip came off in the corners 1 hr later even after we told her and she added more glue.
Marys rating 2 1/2 stars: Mary was scheduled for me. I struggled with Mary a bit and felt our vibes were different. She had asked me if I had any inspo pics and what I wanted when I told her what I wanted she started. Then I was trying to show her my inspo pics and she was dismissive about it and didnt pay attention. I told her I wanted a blue to match my daughters dress and the blue eyeliner was darker than expected. The glitter she put on my eyeshadow was not at all what I said. I said I wanted shimmer not glitter and it was like a rainbow colored. The foundation she added was darker than my skin color. I tried to show her what I bought specifically for the day and she again was very dismissive. My mom decided last minute she wanted her makeup done and she might have felt hurried since I wanted to be at the church by noon but I allowed myself "30 min grace period" and she seemed really rushed when she still had 40 min to do my moms makeup. When she was doing my moms hair, she wasnt listening to my moms request until we had to keep repeating ourselves. even then when she was done my moms do kept moving to the side when my mom said she didnt want it to the side. By 6:00 her bun had shifted. When she initially placed it on her head it was crooked, rather than replacing it she kept moving it over and over. Im not an artist but the best thing to have done would have been to remove it and start over. (It was a fake bun and all she had to do was clip it in place and pin it with bobby pins.)
In the end, she was a bit assertive and pushy and rarely made me feel relaxed and easy.
I wanted Renee but she will only be available if she is working parties other than that she will hire other artists.
FYI. Also, please note I added this same review on Wedding Wire ( I know it was for a quince but it was still for a big event, and makeup and hair were still a service) just to let brides know you will not always get Renee and she disputed and it no longer shows.
