Lace Cosmetics

and even quite generous - when I mentioned that my photographer caught COVID, Amanda immediately reached out to her connections to try to help me find a replacement. Would recommend her to everyone, and if I ever have an occasion again where I need a make up artist, I know where to go! Thanks again, Amanda!!

idn’t get ruined at all it stayed perfect the entire night.

ional, friendly, and very talented. AND she is reasonable. I would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Amanda!

y recommend Lace Cosmetics!

e at the start, so though we (as bridesmaids) needed a somewhat similar look, the makeup was tailored to each person's taste as needed. It is not easy to try and arrange all of this during a pandemic, but Amanda was so clean and careful about making sure was no cross-contamination. She was conscientious about her own mask wearing so though we, obviously, couldn't wear a mask as she applied makeup, we were comfortable and kept safe. Unlike some MUA I've worked with before, she never makes you feel like she's in a rush or like she's giving anyone any less attention. She gave everyone's look the same amount of care, and that's so appreciated on a day when so many photos are taken. She's an excellent conversation and so comfortable to talk to. I'd gladly sit in her makeup chair again! I highly recommend her services to anyone needing a makeup artist.

cara, it was important to me that I look natural on my big day. Amanda was committed to finding the best form of my natural look to give me that confident, elevated feeling. She was also very attentive to each of my bridesmaids, really taking time to listen to their preferences and give them a look that both suited their style but didn't stand out from the group. Getting married during the COVID-19 Pandemic definitely complicated several aspects of my wedding. Amanda was very flexible, understanding, and professional throughout all of the hurdles. Originally planning to be married May 9th, she allowed me to reschedule my services without penalty or fee. She wore a face mask the entire time, never used the same brush on two faces, and took time to sanitize her products using UV light between persons. While I didn't have time to use her provided touch up kit at my reception, the photos from cake cutting show little to no signs of the face mask I wore while greeting our guests (probably 1.5 hours total). I would highly recommend Amanda and honestly am hoping I'll have my own reason to book her services again in the future.

The few changes I asked for were perfect and my make up lasted ALL night, even throughout my happy tears! No matter what I did the make up didn’t move. I received many complements and I felt so confident and beautiful all day thanks to Amanda and Lace cosmetics. ❤️

azing and Amanda did a wonderful job! I will book her again if I need [or want!] my makeup done again.

lanta. From the moment I first contacted, Amanda was professional, friendly and very helpful. Always promptly replying to emails and texts. Her studio is clean, stylish and chic, just like her with her work. On my trial she was super attentive and made me feel comfortable to put my ideas across, which she achieved perfectly! In addition, she was so accommodating with me to try half traditional foundation and half airbrush to see what would work best for my skin. On the big day she made us all look absolutely stunning and she flawlessly recreated my wishes and my bridesmaids and my mom were so happy. I felt so relaxed throughout the morning and we were all so happy with the results. My make-up stayed in place right until the end of the night even though there were a few happy tears throughout the day. She was on time and managed to get us all ready. Without a doubt, with her you will be stress-free! She is truly talented at what she does and even wrote me some words in Spanish to congratulate on my wedding, which made me feel very special. It’s truly the little details that make the difference. ¡Profesionalidad, amabilidad y creatividad! Muchas gracias, Amanda, por estar en un día tan especial.

there are any special requests, as she is working on her clients. Although, I’m sure it didn’t hurt that I was a little anal and very organized.. lol. She is very communicative and provides all details upfront with a signed contract and extremely patient if you have any or multiple questions (like I did 😀). She is able to do makeup for all skin tones - which was very important for my wedding party and she did an excellent job. Amanda is highly recommended for your wedding or special event needs. I can’t wait to be pampered again!

he setting and colors of the wedding. I received a ton of compliments from my guests, and the makeup lasted the whole day after my brunch wedding! She was also very sweet, and worked very well with my hairstylist and day of coordinator. She was very easy to communicate with and was super chill the morning of (which we needed!). She also did my mom's makeup, and she (who is a picky woman) loved it and thought she looked great! You should definitely give her a try; she is well worth it!

m and welcoming and definitely knows her stuff. My makeup on the wedding day was flawless. A few of my bridesmaids (who have been in many weddings) kept saying that this was their all-time favorite makeup for a wedding. My mom was also very happy with her makeup. I highly recommend Amanda!!

, and did an amazing job on all of my bridesmaids as well. I felt like myself on my wedding day, just glammed up a bit more than usual. Thank you Amanda!

time frame. I used Amanda for makeup at both my engagement pictures and wedding. I cannot say enough good things about her! She was so professional and really listed to what everyone wanted at the wedding. We all wanted to look natural. My mom had never had her makeup done so she was nervous, but Amanda did a great job making her feel beautiful and like herself. She also did well with my 12 year old brides made who has never worn makeup before. The trial she did we me was great, she listened to my concerns with what types of foundation work best on my skin and really wanted to make sure I was happy with how my makeup would look on my wedding day. I highly recommend her and would use her again anytime I need my makeup done!

ay. Amanda was SO easy to talk to and very personable. She definitely knows what she's doing. She is so talented. So fast-forward to my wedding day (4/28/19) - I knew I ONLY wanted Amanda to do my makeup. There were a few changes in venue and she was completely willing to go wherever I needed her to. She was quick to respond to my emails and even showed up early to setup. After she finished my makeup, she handed me the mirror and I felt transformed. I felt STUNNING. And every bride should feel that way on wedding day. Thank you, Amanda! You are amazingly talented and SO fun to work with!

amazing person to work with. My spray tan turned out beautifully. It wasn't too dark and looked like a real tan with out any streaks or splotches! Of course I knew I was going to cry and she gave me tips on how to wipe my tears with out ruining my make up. After crying, laughing, picture after picture, dancing the night away, my makeup lasted the all day long! I have no doubt you will be more than happy with her work!

t all day. I really enjoyed her being a part of my wedding day. Months later and my mom is still talking about how much she loved her makeup.

much that I trusted her with my own wedding. She's calm and patient, which is very much needed and appreciated when wedding day nerves can sometimes get the best of you. My makeup looked exactly how I wanted it to and it stayed all night long!

She was classy in every way & we truly appreciate her super sweet personality & professionalism!! Highly highly recommend this gem!!

I felt so comfortable telling her what I wanted. I loved my wedding makeup and I got compliments non stop! Love seeing my photos bc my makeup looks amazing!!

g look of my dreams! Fast forward to my wedding day, and I had gotten a giant bug bite on my forehead during the week (because, why not). As soon as Amanda saw me, she calmed me down and literally made the giant bump completely disappear. I couldn't have asked for a sweeter, more competent makeup artist for my wedding. I highly recommend her!

to work with all day!

d to cake it on. I knew I had to have Amanda on my wedding day! My bridesmaids and I looked exactly like I wanted. Amanda was so easy to work with and is super talented. She was able to answer my questions and made me feel at ease about looking myself on my big day. I would definitely recommend her to any bride!

(darker shade of eye shadow) over time. The result was a very light feeling, effortless, classic look. I actually tried someone else first but came away from the experience feeling like my face was painted on and I couldn't crack a smile else the top coat may break! Amanda's job was the exact opposite of that. Plus she's super nice and fun to chat with. I highly recommend!

ow to give me the look that I wanted. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, and got so many compliments on my make-up! I couldn't be happier with my decision to work with Amanda.

e makeup trial. I wanted to look natural but still sparkle and she nailed it! My husband LOVED how she did my makeup! All my bridesmaids, mother, and mother-in-law couldn't stop talking about how amazing everyone's makeup looked and how beautiful they all felt! She was super sweet and fun to work with and I'm so glad that I booked her! I live in California and planned my wedding from across the country, so working with Amanda made me feel at ease and gave me 1 less thing to stress about. She was very quick to get back to me and was able to answer every question I had. I highly recommend Amanda and you'll be glad you booked her too!

I changed my mind about a couple things and communicated those with her. She made notes, and executed those changes perfectly on my wedding day. On top of her artistic integrity and ability to adapt to a bride's ever-changing ideas, she maintained a level of exceptional customer service. Always responsive, even during her pregnancy, she made me feel like my wedding was a priority to her, not just a job. She is genuine, clearly loves her job, and makes a bride look and feel like a queen. I have recommended her to other brides I know personally, and give her my most heartfelt endorsement.

lped to make our day even more special. I could not have been happier with the way my makeup turned out and I LOVED the lip color Leah created for me. We all received many compliments on how beautiful our makeup turned out. I highly recommend Lace on Location!!!

weekend!

ve hired a better person for the job. I received many compliments on my makeup from guests and even more from the few women that had the pleasure of meeting Amanda. Amanda helped me feel at ease during the trial run because I am not comfortable in a lot of makeup. I wanted a natural look with emphasis to my eyes and she understood exactly what I wanted and delivered. Also, after the makeup application in the bridal cottage, Amanda gave me a bag of products for touch ups if needed through my day. She is the perfect professional for the job and her personality is an added bonus. It was such a blessing to work with you Amanda and thank you for making me feel like a princess! My wedding day would not have been the same without you.

but still let the real me shine through. My wedding had Game of Thrones inspo and I definitely felt like a fierce queen! Amanda is so sweet and just a dream to work with. Her confidence sets you at ease, and her work speaks for itself. She has a great eye and it's obvious she loves what she does. I absolutely recommend Lace to any bride-to-be!

want her to do my make up for any event in the future. I loved that she offers a trial run and she spent plenty of time to figure out exactly what I wanted. She is easy to talk to and very personable.

bridesmaids all looked radiant but what she did with me was nothing short of a miracle...having only slept 10 hours that crazy week my skin was showing it, but she fixed me up and I was able to look amazing in every picture also! I highly recommend Amanda to every stressed Mother of the Bride out there =)

ething, but Amanda wanted to hear what I liked and what I didn't and made me feel so comfortable asking to change some things at the trial and then did exactly what I had asked for the wedding! She's great and you will not get anyone better!

ior bridesmaid's all with ease and great flexibility! I was the farthest thing from a "Pinterest Bride" and basically came in with little to no ideas as to what I wanted my makeup to look like and Amanda provided me with great recommendations and worked well with my eye color and dress color. She also worked very well with my maid of honor who basically had her own Pinterest board dedicated to her makeup. My makeup stayed on all wedding and reception without me having to worry about it, she provide us with extra lipstick and straws! She did a great job with my junior bridesmaid by not making her look too made up or too childish. Amanda was so cheerful and friendly that it felt like I was having my makeup done by my best friend!

ver felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and it was all because of her. Highly recommend!

h. From our first make up trial to the wedding day, Amanda was always responsive, picked up on my style right away, and a delight to spend time with. She kept me calm the morning of the wedding and was always on time and patient as our schedule often changed throughout the weekend. My mom and sister also had their makeup done by her and they loved the outcome-- subtle but bold at the same time. She is absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend using her for your big day if you are looking for someone that you can 100% depend on.

ok like a super amazing version of myself. She was recommended to me during one of my cake tastings and I'm glad that I never looked back. Amanda is quick to respond, easy to work with, and knows her craft. My husband loved my whole bridal look and therefore my goal was accomplished! Im proud to be an Amanda Ford bride!

ng of the wedding. I will not hesitate to work with Amanda again for any MUA needs.

rial and for the day of. I got TONS of compliments on my wedding makeup, and it photographed perfectly. My photographer has worked with her before, and when I met with him, he told me that I hired the best makeup artist in town. I believe him. Also, she is very thoughtful and easy to get along with - this is important when it's the day of the wedding and you're nervous! She even made sure that her nails were manicured so they would look good in the "getting ready" shots with the photographer. I would absolutely recommend her for any kind of makeup.

mom. She made us all feel beautiful and confident. I highly recommend her!

e conservative look, but on the day of I saw what she did with my sister's makeup and asked to go a little more dramatic. It turned out great! Everyone's makeup looked perfect and stayed on throughout the night despite lots of tears and sweat the comes with an outdoor Georgia wedding in August!

e hand and I could see how it would look. She was so down to earth and understood that I wanted to look natural and not over done. It was perfect! Thanks Amanda!
