I am so confused by all of the rave reviews. Maris was cold, frigid, and rude to me (bride), bridesmaids, and pretty much anyone who walked into the room. She has her thing, and really doesn’t change anything up. She creates the makeup line she uses and is not a fan of requests to use something else. The makeup appears to have a massive talc base, creating a very chalky appearance on darker skin tones. Not recommended unless you are looking for someone to kill the vibe, damper your excitement, and is a ruuuude elephant in the room. Also not recommended if you have darker skin tone.
Maris is absolutely amazing! All of the girls and I loved our makeup. Our makeup looked flawless all night, for 8 hours!!! My face stayed matte (and my skin type is oily) and my eyelashes stayed intact all night. Also, Maris is very professional and accommodating, and incredibly sweet!
Maris did my make up at my wedding over the weekend, along with my bridesmaids and mom. She did such an amazing job! I asked her to tweak a few things from my trial and I was blown away by how good I looked! It was so natural and beautiful. All the bridesmaids were thrilled as well. My mom does not wear make up and Maris did a wonderful job working with her and listening to her about what she wanted and she was so happy with it! Everyone looked like the best versions of themselves. Do not hesitate to book her for your wedding!!
Maris is so so amazing! She made me look so beautiful and completely natural on my wedding day. She also did makeup for a few of my bridesmaids and they all loved their looks. It can be difficult choosing a makeup artist for such a special day and I would not hesitate putting complete confidence in Maris. She is also such a fun, cool and sweet person -- it was wonderful spending hours with her on my wedding day! She is also super organized and prepared which I appreciated so much. I LOVE Maris!
Maris did my makeup, as well as my Mom, MIL, and a couple bridesmaids for my October wedding. She is simply brilliant. A total joy to work with and was super flexible with what I wanted. I looked flawless and wish I could use her every day so I looked that good all the time. Highly recommend!
Maris was incredible to work with for wedding day make up! I'm usually really picky when it comes to makeup, but Maris was perfection. All of my bridesmaids looked incredible too! Would definitely recommend!
Brides, look no further. Maris is YOUR GIRL!! I planned my wedding from 6 states away and if you're in the middle of deciding makeup you know- it's a HUGE decision! I started following Maris' instagram and after 1 week of seeing her posts, I booked her. No trial was ever done and yet she NAILED it on my wedding day. My bridesmaids looked stunning and I felt so so beautiful. If I could give her 10 stars I would. Not only is she magical with her makeup she is SO much fun to have around!
I love Maris and her make up! After our trial last September, I hate to admit I wore her make up the entire weekend because it was so pretty and comfortable! On my wedding day, it was so comfortable with Maris and her timeline. We were never in a rush and all my bridesmaids felt flawless. She even pleased my grandmother with her application who is blunt and speaks her mine. All of my bridesmaids and I couldn't even feel out make up on. Everything was so light and comfortable. Our favorite part we all commented on was the eyelashes! Normally eyelashes are scratchy on the sides and you know you are wearing them. Maris's eyelash application were the most comfortable we have ever felt. Maris is the most professional and talented make up artist I have ever worked with. I am so lucky I was able to book her for the most important day of my life.
Do you want flawless makeup that stays, still looks like you, and makes you look like the most beautiful version of yourself? Look no further than Maris at Pearl Beauty!!! I have been a bridesmaid in A LOT of weddings. A lot. And I've never been in one where every single girl LOVES their makeup. It's always too cakey, too "not me", too much. Every single one of my bridesmaids loved their look and felt so comfortable in their skin. I felt like a freaking rockstar all night, but most importantly I felt like myself. Maris is so lovely to be around and she is hands down the best makeup artist I've ever used. Just book her already!!
I can't say enough good things about Maris! She did such a wonderful job on my makeup for my bridals and for my wedding and she made my mom, grandma, and bridesmaids look fabulous! She is so talented and sweet! I was really nervous at my wedding and she really helped me calm down. I just wish I lived in the Austin area so I would have more opportunities to use her.
Maris for the WIN!
Wedding make up was beyond fabulous! She's talented, professional, and a great person over all. Everything from booking to day of was a breeze, definitely no stress! My make was flawless and stood up to a fun filled night of dancing. No need to look any further, just book her!
Maris and her team did such an amazing job with all of our hair and makeup. The trials were great practice, I used the makeup trial for my engagement shoot which was awesome. Would highly recommend them for your wedding. We even finished everyone's hair and makeup EARLY and gave us more time to relax before the wedding. When does that ever happen?!! thanks again Maris, makeup held up all day and night!
Maris was great to work with! I was going for a very natural look and she was very accommodating and made sure I was happy with the results. Thank you Maris!
I can't say enough great things about Maris! I used her for my bridal makeup as well as my five bridesmaids at Vista West Ranch in Dripping Springs, TX on 3/11/16. I had initially met her during our month our wedding makeup trial in her Austin location and from there I was completely satisfied with her work, attention to details, and kind heartedness. She is easy to talk to, listens and does a fantastic job with bringing a bride to her full potential for the most important day of her life.
Maris and her helper did an amazing job for my engagement pictures and wedding. I couldn't be happier! She was on time and organized for both events. (Very important when you have a bridal party of 9 girls, 2 moms, and myself that needed to get ready). Everyone looked great and received compliments the whole night!
My coordinator sent me an email the day before my wedding telling me she would no longer be working for my venue. I was in a major panic trying to figure out what happened between my venue and their employee. Maris emailed me right away letting me know she would still be there and that everything was going to be perfect. That's customer service, y'all! She even gifted me a lipstick on the day of. Small gestures aren't made like that anymore. She made me tear up!
I give credit where credit is due. And Maris, you're the bomb! Five stars for you and your team! Ladies, don't even think about using Pearl Studio. JUST DO IT! :)
Maris is absolutely PHENOMENAL! I am forever thankful that my photographer suggested her for my wedding day makeup - it could not have turned out more beautifully! Maris is friendly, professional, and a joy to chat with. She will forever be my Austin go-to for gorgeous make-up design!
I'm so glad that I choose Maris as my wedding makeup artist. I didn't have a bridal party, but she also did the makeup for my mother, future MIL & SIL. She is lovely, professional, and a true artist. She made all of us look the best that we ever have without making us look like different people. She has a great taste level and is able to say if she believes something will work for you or if it won't, she is also more than willing to try different looks on you to make sure that you are happy. She works very quickly but the quality of the makeup is not compromised, she is just that good. The airbrush makeup was flawless, the way it should be and stayed on from 11 am till well into the wee hours of the next day. I really loved the false lashes that she applies because instead of using a strip, they're all individual lashes which are so much comfortable and look so lush and full.
Molly did my makeup for my engagement pictures, bridals and my wedding. She also did my mom and 4 bridesmaids makeup. Wow. She did such an amazing job. I got so many compliments and have never felt so beautiful. It was so exciting seeing all my bridesmaids and mom in makeup too because they normally wear very little. She does such a great job and is very sweet and showed up on time. I keep thinking I want to get my makeup done again but don't have any reason yet, haha. This was the best decision I made for my wedding!!! Thank you Molly!!
Maris not only made me but my mom, bridesmaids, and sisters feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day. She is kind and makes you feel comfortable and she is an artist in every sense of the word. I looked exactly the way I wanted to that day, and I am so thankful for that!
Maris truly has a talent in makeup. She did my bridal makeup, as well as all of my bridesmaids. I'm not gonna lie, we were a pretty bomb.com/amazing bridal party. Makeup done beautifully and flawlessly. I did a trial with Maris initially, and I'm not used to a lot of makeup (I only put on eye liner, mascara, fill in my eyebrows, and blush). After letting Maris know exactly what I was looking for on my wedding day, she delivered. Everyone told me how beautiful my makeup was, and loved my eyes. I highly recommend Maris!!
Maris did my makeup as well as my bridal party's makeup for my wedding and she did a beautiful job on all of us. I am extremely picky about my makeup and in the past I've been known to wash off makeup that has been done for me because it never seems to look natural. That's how I knew Maris was the right artist for me when I had my trial, she made my skin look flawless! She was also professional and showed up on time and made sure I was 100% happy before she left. It should also be said that I cried a lot during my ceremony but did not need a ton of touch up afterwards and felt beautiful the whole night.
Maris is an extremely talented makeup artists who knows how to do makeup for women who want both simple and dramatic results. After my trial, I felt like the makeup was just too much for my personality, and Maris was extremely helpful in understanding what exactly I wanted. My makeup on the wedding day was absolutely perfect, and I received multiple compliments from family and guests! I would highly recommend her.
We got married on July 11th and Maris did makeup for me, my attendants and our moms. All of the makeup looked amazing - natural yet incredibly classy and elegant. Maris is wonderful to have around on your wedding day- she's so sweet and positive. I HIGHLY recommend her!
Maris was extremely professional, fun to work with and efficient on our wedding day. She was thorough and detail oriented, while still being very efficient and aware of time. She did an amazing job and everyone's makeup stayed all night, even through the Texas heat! Not only is she amazing at her job, but she is an awesome person and was fun to hang out with throughout the day! I highly recommend her :)
Everyone complimented me on my makeup and it lasted the whole night, through the rain and the humidity of Texas! I looked absolutely gorgeous and she completely worked with my nerves since I never really wear makeup.
Maris did makeup for my wedding for myself, my mother and two friends. The makeup was absolutely flawless for all of us and I cried and sweat (dancing!) and my makeup looked perfect all night! Maris is very professional and has a calming demeanor which was so easy and pleasant to have around on the wedding day when it's easy to get stressed out. She had a consultation appt. with me about 6 week before the wedding and mirrored that look exactly on the wedding day - I couldn't be more pleased or recommend her more highly!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Maris. She is such a sweet person and made me look beautiful. What's not to love!! :) But really, Maris did amazing work and everyone looked gorgeous. The best part was her masterpieces lasted all day. When looking back at our pictures, we all looked as fresh in the first picture as we did in the last. She did truly an amazing job. I can't recommend Maris enough!!
Maris did my makesup for all of my bridesmaids and myself for my recent wedding on 4/11/15. We had a mixture of girls wanting natural looks and some who wanted more heavy applications. All I can say is she delivered! All of my bridesmaids and myself were super happy with how our makeup looked. It's often scary, especially being the bride, to let someone do your makeup who you dont know and has never done it before. I had nightmares about having terrible makeup before my wedding and looking awful for the big day. All I can say is I was blown away and couldn't of been happier with how she did my makeup. It was everything I had envisioned! That being said, I would definitely reccomend hiring her to do your makeup!
Maris made my girls and me look hot! :) I can't say enough wonderful things about her talent. I felt gorgeous, and my makeup lasted all day long. The make-up really stood out in the pictures and made my feel like a bride. She knows her colors and how to enhance a woman's features. I would recommend Maris to anyone that wants to feel gorgeous on a special day!
Maris and her team are absolutely the best! She is professional, skilled and patient. I knew I would look great on my wedding day in her hands, but I never imagined how beautiful! Her make up is dreamy. Really, those lashes are so gorgeous and I was able to wear them all night without any problems. Sultry eyes and lovely lips!
As a wedding coordinator myself, I've been referring Maris for some time. Now that I've been in her chair/on the other side as a Bride I'll sing her praises even more!
Thanks Maris! Can't wait to see your work in the photos.
Maris did an incredible job for my, my bridesmaids and my mom on my wedding day. Her personality is so low key which is also a plus during a very hectic time. I wear very little makeup and Maris understood that and worked with me to find a happy medium. I was thrilled with how it turned out! She also worked around a very busy saturday schedule to fit me in for a trial as I do not live in town. I would recommend Maris to anyone without any hesitation!
Maris was amazing! Her make-up taste is the absolute best. She worked with my bridesmaids and me to create the perfect look for each one of us :). Not only is her work fabulous - she is a terrific person! So sweet and fun to work with. Thank you for making our day so special and beautiful! I could not have wished for prettier make-up :)!
Maris is a true artist. I showed her a picture and she made me look exactly like it. I have never looked more beautiful. She is very professional and kind. I couldn't have picked a better make up artist for my wedding. Thank you!
Maris Malone Calederon was my makeup artist for my wedding, and also did my bridesmaids, my mother and my mother-in-law. All of us do makeup very differently, and she captured exactly what we liked to have done and made it look 1000 times better than we ever could. I did a trial before, which I highly recommend, because even though I was happy and satisfied, she studied the picture of my trial and determined some subtle changes she could make to fully improve the look--which ended up making me look more amazing than I thought possible. She also responds to questions whenever you have them, and she's terrific, on-time, and great to talk to. The bottom line is that she's unbelievably talented, but having her be an awesome woman makes it even more fun to spend the morning with her!
Maris did a wonderful job doing makeup for me and six members of the wedding party. Before the wedding day, I met her for a trial, where she first talked through with me the look that I was going for. I wanted a fresh, natural look, and the makeup she applied at the trial definitely reflected that vision. She always offered to make changes if I didn't like anything, but I didn't even need to.
On the wedding day, Maris began makeup on my bridesmaids early in the morning in the apartment where we were getting ready. She had a very calm and friendly presence, working on one person at at time in the background while we all hung out and got ready. I wasn't watching the clock, but she worked very efficiently (without rushing) and closely followed the timeline she had given me, so we were easily done by the time I had requested.
Of course, I also should mention that she did a beautiful job on all of our makeup. She was able to cater to the preferences of each of my bridesmaids, and I know they were all very pleased with the results (as was I!). My makeup was last, around 12:30, and it looked great all night. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Maris to anyone looking for a talented and easygoing makeup artist on their wedding day.
Maris was simply amazing! She is so professional, calm, and easy going. She did a fabulous job on my makeup for my bachelorette party and on my wedding day. Her talent and expertise exceeded my expectations and relieved so much stress off me knowing my makeup was flawless and natural looking. She made me feel absolutely beautiful and my favorite experience of my wedding journey. I recommend Maris with all my heart and think so much of her. Thank you Maris!!!

Maris was great to work with. I had a trial with her at a salon ($100). I did airbrushed foundation, fake lashes and make up. The airbushed make up held up well in the heat. On the wedding day, Maris was on time and super laid back. She made it easy to keep my nerves in check. The $180 covered one hour for makeup. You have to plan to buy your own touch up make up and lipstick for the remainder of the time. My make up looked amazing and even looked great at out 3am pool party. Totally worth it!! And Maris was so easy and great to work with. I highly recommend her!
I can't say enough great things about Maris! She made my bridesmaids, mother-in-law, mother, and me feel and look so beautiful! She has a very soft touch and is just fun to be around, so the whole process was pleasant amid the chaos of the wedding day. We couldn't stop talking about what an amazing job she did and the makeup looked flawless throughout the entire hot & humid day. I hope to work with her again for other events.
Maris did a great job on my makeup for my recent wedding. It was lightweight yet provided excellent coverage and I just felt beautiful overall. She offers trial runs for an additional charge and I would highly recommend it. It gives you an opportunity to change anything you don't like (I ended up going with shorter eyelashes) and see how it lasts throughout the night. I would recommend her to any of my friends.
Maris is amazing! I first met her at my brother's wedding when she did my makeup as a bridesmaid. I was so impressed that I contacted her immediately about our wedding. I already knew her talent. She responded quickly and enthusiastically throughout the engagement. That was very important since I no longer lived in Austin and was planning wedding from 2 hours away.
Since everybody (mothers, grandmothers, and of course bridesmaids) wanted their's professionally done as well, Maris worked with us on the price and the timing. I must say that the day of the wedding was crazy since she and her assistant were in my hotel suite with about 20 other people while she was working. It didn't faze her a bit! And the results were amazing!! She made me feel beautiful, which is all a bride can hope for, as well as garner compliments throughout the day. I highly recommend her for her skill, her manner, her professionalism, and her patience.
I hired Maris to do my makeup and my bridesmaids' makeup for my wedding and was thrilled with the result! I only had my trial run the day prior (so I had fabulous makeup for the rehearsal!) and I felt 100% confident in her hands the day of. She did not disappoint! My bridesmaids looked beautiful and loved her as well. I felt absolutely beautiful on my wedding day and am so glad I hired her!
Maris did an amazing job on our make up! She is super talented. Definitely the best in Austin! And the make up lasts ALL day. My mom had a trial with her and went home and ran errands, cleaned the house, etc and her face was still perfect.
Maris did the makeup for myself, my 5 bridesmaids, my mother, and my mother-in-law for my wedding. She was super organized and flexible and easy to work with both before and during our big day! Her work was amazing and she did it quickly and professionally, while still giving plenty of time for each girl to not feel the least bit rushed. She was phenomenal to work with and she definitely made everyone look beautiful for our wedding day! I'd recommend her to anyone looking for a fantastic makeup artist!!
Maris is the best make up artist...not only in Austin but arguably anywhere. I first met her when she did my makeup in my friend's wedding and I knew immediately that I wanted her to do mine at my wedding a year later.
She made me, my mother, mother in law and bridesmaids feel like our most beautiful and natural version of ourselves. We all received overwhelming praise, more than I could have imagined.
She has the best technique and knows make up better than anyone else. She brings out the best in every person she works with and I would recommend her to anyone. She is also warm, kind and her peaceful energy made me feel at ease throughout my wedding morning and day prior to the wedding.
I can't wait for the next excuse I can find to work with her for family photos or another special event. She is a true artist and talent in Austin.
My photographer suggested I try Maris for my bridal shoot. She was great. I didn't have time to do a trial run before so I was a little nervous. Maris was so nice and make me feel comfortable immediately. Her work was amazing and my pictures turned our wonderful
Maris did my makeup for my engagement photos and wedding. I absolutely loved it! I felt amazing. I told her the look I was going for and she nailed it. I have recommended her to everyone I know needing makeup for photos. What I liked best about Maris was her ability of knowing exactly what I wanted to look like with just a few words. Her products she used were great and did not feel heavy. My bridesmaids loved her as well!
Maris is so incredibly talented, I felt lucky she was available for my wedding day! She had done my makeup for other occasions before, but she totally outdid herself on my wedding day. She has such a calming personality and it was totally welcomed on the wedding day. She always makes me feel like the best version of myself - without looking too "make-up-y". My wedding day was no exception - I truly felt so beautiful without being over the top. She also did my bridesmaids, and every single one LOVED their makeup (in fact, 2 have now booked her for their wedding!). I can't put in to words how great Maris - personality and talent combine - there is no other choice! I will always recommend Maris to new brides.
Maris is an amazing makeup artist! Her makeup services are extensive and flexible, and her professionalism and quality are unmatched. Not only were every one of my girls, each of different ethnicities/skin colors, pleased with the beautiful looks Maris created for them, I had never seen them so stunning! Maris used the timing and location of my wedding to create dramatic combinations that stood out on each face, but all came together beautifully.
Honestly, I would have been pleased with just that level of service, but Maris went above and beyond. She gave me tips and tricks on using the items in my own makeup bag, recommended colors and products for me that I'm STILL using regularly years after my wedding, and interacted with me like a friend rather than a client, while still maintaining her professionalism. After my wedding, I told her that she was the kind of person that I wanted as a friend, not just a service provider. Maris was truly a blessing in all of my wedding planning, and I was lucky to find her and be accepted as one of her clients. I cannot write enough about how talented, personable, and incredible she was. Maris is one of the few vendors I worked with that actually made me want to get married again so that I could enjoy the experience with her one more time.
Cant say enough good things about Maris! She is amazing and the best in the business!
Maris did makeup for myself and my bridal party on my big day. I am so glad I found Maris, because she was hands down the best choice. Of all the vendors I chose to help make my special day run smoothly, I was most happy with Maris. She is so sweet, professional, and extremely talented in her craft. Every bride wants to look flawless and she can make that happen for you in a natural way. She works with you to find the perfect look and makes you feel very comfortable. I would recommend her to any bride in the central Texas area. This is the makeup artist you want!!! Love love love Maris!
