Beauty with Grace

she was able to get to all of us with time to spare before the photographer arrived. In the months leading up to the wedding and on the wedding day she was always professional, punctual, responsive, and a pleasure to work with. I knew at the trial that she would be great and I wasn't disappointed!

l job. After showing her some pictures of hairstyles I liked, then describing to her the kind of makeup I was after, she gave me the exact look I wanted. Grace has a really good eye for color and makes effective recommendations. Grace is very professional, extremely prompt, and very responsive with any questions. She travels directly to you for both the trial and wedding day, which I found to be very convenient. I was so happy with Grace's work, I even recommended Grace to my friend for her wedding next year!

a destination wedding for me, so we arranged everything via email and the whole process was really stress-free. The day of, she was everything you'd expect a professional makeup artist to be on your wedding day - prompt, efficient and super awesome at hair and makeup. A month later, my bridesmaids and my mom are still talking about how great they looked. There was a lot of squealing about their eyebrows. My makeup lasted all night without any touchups - I was really impressed. I would absolutely recommend Grace to anyone getting married in NYC.

up was not something I wanted to skimp on, because in the hands of someone unskilled you can look like a hooker. Enter Grace. Grace was a pleasure to deal with from the moment I contacted her. Already a plus. I had a tall order - 6 bridesmaids, 1 junior bridesmaid and me - the bride that wanted a smoky, sexy, non-raccoon look. TRIAL: Grace patiently tried a few different looks in the trial, each one more beautiful than the next. It was 9am and makeup lasted until my bachelorette party ending at 3am. WEDDING: My girls each had a different idea of how they wanted to look. Some wanted a more natural look, some wanted more glam, and some just didn't know. Grace knew immediately what look would best best for each one, and made each one of us a more gorgeous version of ourselves. I honestly never thought I could look so beautiful. And we were done on time! No rushing, either. For the record - I went airbrush and my girls went traditional. It all lasted and stayed flawless. Grace is sweet, affordable, professional and reliable - all qualities a stressed out bride appreciates. Makeup is an art, and Grace is at the top of her game.

one as I've come across some horrible stories during my search.  However, Grace definitely exceeded my expectations by not only accommodating to my requests that the make up be minimal and natural, she even came out to my place for two trial/engagement shoots on different occassions and different days.  Got fabulous pictures to prove it. On the wedding day, my husband was so impressed that he could only mutter the words 'you look good..' when he first saw me.  Of course my maids gave him an earful for such lukewarm reception! I didn't get the wedding pictures yet but the makeup and hair looked good from other pictures so I'm very hopeful.  Grace is talented, patient and displayed the professionalism I was looking for to help me look my best on one of the most important days of my life.  Grace, you did good!  Thank you so much for everything!

wedding day. She worked with my sensitive skin, so I wouldn't break out & was super patient. Not only did she listen to my suggestions, but she made sure that everything was perfect. Grace is an amazing, talented & beautiful woman! I wish she can do my makeup & hair for all occasions! Thank you again !

tist, however once they saw the work she did on my test trial, all of the bridesmaids now wanted their own makeup done by Grace, including my mother (also the Mother of the bride :). She was able to work with all skin tone type (from light to dark skin). She's always on time and comes fully prepared; a true professional. The wedding turned out great and all the bridesmaids were VERY HAPPY with their makeup. I highly recommend Grace to anyone who's looking to look their BEST at any event. On a side note, I was so pleased with Grace that I hired her to do my sister's makeup for her 30th Birthday bash.

tures of my dress. We took pictures so I didn’t have to choose which style I wanted until the day of the wedding. My wedding party all looked flawless and beautiful thanks to Grace. I will recommend her to anyone and everyone. I was even able to add my mom and aunt at the last minute. (The person she was going to use was flaky and Grace came extra early due to the additions. My makeup was perfect. Other makeup artist never seemed to listen when I told them I usually don’t wear a lot of makeup ~ and after the session I felt uncomfortable. It was different with Grace ~ I loved the makeup. She was so nice and made me and everyone else feel so comfortable. The only problem is now I want Grace to follow me around so she can apply my makeup for me every day. ) I was so happy I was able to find Grace.
