Victoria was great! She did my makeup for my vow renewal! I am a very basic makeup girl. Wasn't too sure about what I wanted. I showed Victoria some conflicting I inspo pics and ...
she was able to see what they had in common. She put a great look together that looked fabulous got me to try some new things, but didn't look over the top! I got so many compliments on the look. I can't recommend her services enough; she is very talented.
Victoria is a true talented professional with an awesome spirit. I found her before COVID-19 began and at that time my wedding was being held in Virginia Beach. Well, my wedding ...
venue changed to Richmond after the pandemic began, but I liked her work so much I wanted to keep her and boy am I glad I did. She did an AMAZING job on mine and my daughter's makeup and truly feel like we gained a new family member that day...What a joy to have you included in my special day. May God Forever Bless you and keep you, my dear.
Victoria is not only an amazingly talented makeup artist but she also has a beautiful spirit. She is a consummate professional- who is extremely passionate about her artistry. When...
I first sat in her chair during our first consultation I felt like I knew her for years. On my wedding day, she not only executed my vision perfectly but she was super sweet to my bridesmaids and went above and beyond to make sure I was good! I’m just waiting for the next occasion to book her again! Highly recommend.
Victoria is absolutely amazing!! Victoria is easy to work with, she responds in a timely manner and is compassionate and kind. I used her for my engagement photos and wedding day (...
7 women total). She arrived on time, remained professional and most of all she made everyone feel beautiful! I cannot thank her enough!
Victoria was amazing from the very start. I had my trial scheduled with her prior to my wedding. During the trial we met at her home and two of my lovely bridesmaids accompanied me...
. From the moment we walked into her home, I felt at home. She was very personable and polite. She gave me a chance to express what look I wanted for my big day and proceeded to exceed my expectation. During the trial she didn’t just match my vision but gave her expert opinion. She suggested a red lip. At first, I have to admit, I wasn’t sold. But after she showed it to me, she gave me the confidence that I could pull it off for my big day. Fast forward to the wedding day. Her punctuality matched her previous politeness and warmth during the trail. The bridal party and I were more than pleased with her services. She stayed conscious of the time and at no point did we feel like she was rushing a look. All of the bridesmaids had a similar look which is difficult to achieve on all skin shades, eye types,etc. She literally nailed it! My look as the bride let’s just say the red lip was poppin’ and my bridesmaids couldn’t stop screaming in excitement. You would be doing yourself a disservice by reading this review and not trusting Victoria with your big day. I’m so glad I did. She is forever welcomed by the Bascombe’s. #BecomingBascombe
Victoria was a joy to come in contact with. She did my makeup for two of the best moments of my life! The first time she did it, she came to my house. She was punctual and her spir...
it was so kindred. She held conversation and I felt like I knew her forever! She also did my wedding makeup along with all of my bridesmaids (who also fell in love with her work) not only before my wedding but she stayed the entire time to touch me back up before my pictures! She is amazing!! She made me feel more than beautiful and she was so catering to what I wanted or envisioned for myself. I would like to refer to her as “Gifted Hands”. She will ALWAYS be my very first recommendation to anyone for a makeup artist!!
Victoria is truly a gifted makeup artist! She did my makeup for my wedding on January 19, 2019. She also did the makeup of three of my bridesmaids. Not only did so do an amazing jo...

Difficult to say how amazing Victoria was on my wedding day. I had numerous bridesmaids, all with different skin tones, and Victoria seemed to know exactly how to make each one loo...
k individually beautiful. She was such a blessing to work with even before the wedding. Very responsive to emails and texts and had an amazing way of balancing my preferences for the bridesmaids' makeup with her own professional opinion. Very punctual and kind. I wouldn't hesitate to use Victoria again for any function of mine.
Victoria is so amazing!

Victoria is such a genuine and gifted spirit! Aside from her amazing energy, she aided in bringing out the beauty in myself and the women I love on my wedding day. At my first brid...
al makeup trial she listened to what I “thought” I wanted and delivered. I contacted her later with a change of heart and she was more than delighted to put my new vision together with another trial. On the day of my wedding, Victoria was a true asset. Whatever makeup needs you might have for any occasion she is the one to book!
Victoria was amazing. She provided amazing customer service. She was very accommodating. She was the second make up artist I went to and I'm so happy I chose her. If I could do ...

nd day of! My bridal party loved her and we all looked fabulous! She heard my request for the day of look and nailed it! I recommend her to anyone that wants a professional makeup artist! This is your MUA!
Victoria was such a great spirit and kind hearted. She was very helpful on my special day. I never had makeup done before and from the first day we met up until my wedding day she ...
made me feel comfortable and I was able to trust her and her vision. I will be using Victoria again as MUA for any events and all events I have and would recommend her to everyone I know!
Victoria has one of the most beautiful spirits and was the absolute best MUA I could select for my special day. From the consultation, leading up to my wedding, and on the actual d...
ay she was always so personable, as well as informative and made sure she was knowledgeable about the looks I wanted for me and my bridal party. I will definitely use her in the future and would recommend her to anyone who is looking for a MUA that pays attention to detail and adds a personal touch to the experience.
I originally found Victoria on Instagram in 2014 and offered her as a suggestion to my girlfriend as her MUA for her wedding. She ended up going with Victoria for her wedding and w...
e were all blown away at how amazing we all looked. We were all impressed how glam her makeup application was without looking “overdone”! Being an African American woman, what really impressed me is that we were all of various skin tones and types (oily, dry, acne prone, scarring) and she matched our skin perfect! The finish was smooth and did not have that “ashy” or “caked-on” appearance... and best of all it literally lasted all night! It was only right that I vetted her for my March 2018 wedding! I’m super critical and picky... and was borderline a bridezilla ....I was very deliberate with my vendor selections for my wedding and she was at the top of my list. Victoria was very professional, responsive, punctual, and pleasant to work with. She took her time to see my vision and even politely redirected me when I was all over the place... lol! If I had to give any negative feedback... I would say Her work is meticulous and she takes her time to make application perfection... which is not AT ALL a bad thing! However, She is only one person so this may become an issue with very large wedding parties and wedding day timing. It takes about 45min for bridesmaids/Mother of the bride/ others makeup application per person and about 1 hour for the bride. She was really good about working with me and providing the timeline and coordinating the makeup schedule with the wedding day events. But of course even with all the planning, there were a couple of minor hiccups and miscommunications that caused last minute adjustments beyond our control. However she was very flexible, deligent, and at the end of the day got the job done!!! All I can say is always plan accordingly and always give a time cushion as I did and everything will be OK. Overall, I truely loved working with her and would certainly work with her again! ❤️
Victoria is so awesome! She is so sweet and calm. She did my bridal makeup and I absolutely loved everything about it! My makeup stayed on the entire night of the reception; and I ...
did not want to wash it off ! I had a great experience with her for she made sure I was comfortable on my day.
