Angela Makeup Chicago

Angela is an absolute gem! She has this incredible gift for making you look glammed up while still feeling completely like yourself, I never once felt "overdone," just my best self with a beautiful glow. From the moment she started, she was so warm, fun, and genuinely caring with both me and my girlfriends. It felt less like a makeup appointment and more like getting ready with a friend who happens to be seriously talented. Her attention to detail and the care she puts into her work really shine through. She made my day feel even more special, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. If you're looking for a makeup artist who nails that natural-glam balance and brings such positive energy to the room, Angela is the one. Highly, highly recommend!

Angela (Makeup) and Joey (Hair) were absolutely amazing. From the very beginning, Angela was incredibly sweet, professional, and so easy to work with. She answered all of my questions, was incredibly flexible with feedback, and was an absolute master at coordinating the timing for our entire wedding party. She somehow managed to keep everyone on schedule while still building a comfortable buffer into our timeline, which took so much stress off of me on such an important day. Both Angela and Joey were also so wonderful and flexible when we ended up getting ready at my mom’s house. Even though they had to work in separate rooms and make the space work for them, they were both so accommodating and never made it feel like an inconvenience. Angela went above and beyond with my mom, who is battling cancer. Because of her treatment, my mom has lost her hair and eyebrows, and Angela took such extra care and attention to make her feel like herself again. She beautifully blended her foundation and created new brows for her, and the result was so much more than just makeup. She made my mom feel beautiful, confident, and happy—and that was truly all I wanted for her. I will always be grateful to Angela for giving my mom that moment. And Joey absolutely knocked it out of the park with the hair. From the trial to the wedding day, he was incredibly talented and brought exactly what I had envisioned to life. He even took the time to show my maid of honor how to secure my veil so it would stay perfectly in place throughout the day. And somehow, despite the warm weather and hours of photos outside, our hair barely moved. He is incredibly talented, but what stood out just as much was how genuinely caring and personable he is. He is so much fun to talk to while you’re getting ready, and you can tell that he truly cares about his clients. In fact, one of the first things he said when he walked through the door on the wedding morning was, “How are you feeling?” It was such a simple question, but it made me stop, take a breath, and actually take in the moment. That kind of thoughtfulness meant so much on a day that could have easily felt overwhelming. I cannot recommend Angela and Joey enough. They are incredibly talented, but more importantly, they are kind, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making their clients feel their absolute best. They were such a special part of our wedding day, and I’m so grateful we had them with us.
