Alexandra is a true professional and expert in beauty! I was so impressed and pleased with my hair and make-up for my big day. She just 100% knows what she is doing! When I was loo...
king for a beauty vendor for my wedding, Alexandra was responsive, communicative, and provided excellent insight into how I needed to go about organizing my getting ready session before the wedding ceremony. I had 7 bridesmaid and my mom all getting hair and makeup with me, and Alexandra was both up for the challenge and appropriately helped me set expectations and plan. I was overjoyed with my trial and wedding makeup, and my hair was just perfect both with and without my vail. I also went to Alexandra a week before my wedding for a facial, and I would HIGHLY recommend this service, as it was just the relaxation and refresh I needed before a week full of wedding prep and events.
There is no way to sum up Alexandra in a way that does her justice. This woman was beyond AMAZING to work with! Truly she was such a vibrant joy! She arrived well ahead of time, wa...
s so patient, kind and thorough with all of my 8 bridesmaids, my mother in law and mother, and me. Her energy is infectious and the way she interacted with us all, honestly added to the pure joy of the day.
Alexandra knows exactly what’s she’s doing. She took my limited explanation of “soft glam, as natural possible” and turned it into a look that made me feel not only beautiful, but understood. My look was ME in all the ways, even though we didn’t have a trial beforehand. I felt so comfortable in my makeup all day. Everything she used was high quality and blended beautifully with my skin tone, looked natural in the pictures and didn’t bleed off on my husbands tux when we hugged (which happened a lot that day of course!)!
If you’re able to work with Alexandra, I couldn’t recommend it more! She was such a pleasure to work with in every way, very punctual, kind and understanding, and she has a gift for bringing your vision to life. I was so grateful to have her as a part of my day and would hire her again in a heartbeat!
Alexandra is such a kind and genuine person. Her make up skills are excellent, but her personality is equally as stunning. She was such a pleasure to work with, and she perfectly c...
ustomized her make up to the needs of each of the people in my bridal party, some of whom rarely ever wear make up and wanted a very soft and natural look, and others who wanted full on glam. Everyone looked gorgeous and was very happy with her work, and everyone thought she was an absolute sweetheart. She even went so far as to stop what she was doing to go make my mom (MOB) a cup of hot tea and honey to try and help her get her voice back before the wedding. She’s an absolute gem and I would 10/10 work with her again.
Alexandra did the makeup for myself and my daughter for her wedding and for her sister who was her maid of honor. No e if us wear a lot of makeup on a daily basis. Our makeup for t...
he wedding was perfect for us. Not over done and very comfortable. We all got many compliments. I would highly recommend Alexandra to do your makeup. She was a joy to work with!
Alexandra is very talented, provides exceptional service , wonderful to work with and is prompt with communication. Very professional!
Alexandra was hands down amazing. My photographer fell through 3 hours before our wedding, and offered to take the photos and do my make up, I did in fact find a photographer very ...
last minute, but Alexandra was there to listen and get me through that stressful situation. My makeup was absolutely perfect and I can’t thank her enough, I truly felt beautiful. She is extremely professional and even kept in contact with me even 3 months before my wedding day, truly am thankful to have come across her. She is a wonderful person inside and out.
Alexandra was absolutely the best. From the first time I reached out to the day she did my make up she was timely, professional and over all genuinely the best! She made me feel be...
autiful and her makeup skills are some of the best in the industry. I was so happy she was available to do my makeup as she came highly recommended too!
Alexandra was a dream to work with at our wedding. She was very prompt and professional. I would highly recommend her work.
I booked Alexandra for my microwedding/elopement in Glacier National Park. I was referred to her from another makeup artist and I couldn’t have been more happy with the overall ex...
perience I had that day! I knew I wanted natural glam for my wedding day and Alexandra is all about that! She looked at a reference photo I had and absolutely nailed the look I was going for. She was very kind, down to earth and knows her stuff when it comes to picking what best suits your facial features. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience or makeup artist for my big day! I would recommend her all day long for anyone looking for someone in the West Glacier area! 10/10 recommend!!
Alexandra did makeup for me (bride) and my bridesmaids. She is so sweet and very professional, just the kind of person you want hanging out with you and your girls on your big day!...
My bridesmaids are a wide range of skin tones and ages and everyone looked beautiful! I did a trial with Alexandra a few days before the wedding where we met for the first time. I asked her for two specific things: 1) lots of coverage that somehow still looks semi-natural (I have melasma and genetic dark circles under my eyes) and 2) a natural lip color. I have tried looking for the specific color / look I described for years, but had given up and decided my skin color just doesn't go with the lip color I wanted. Well, Alexandra shows up a few days later with the best concealer I've ever used and THE. PERFECT. LIP COLOR. She did the impossible. To top it off, both were included in my touch up kit. I don't typically wear a lot of make up, or any at all very often, but I now use these a couple of times a week. I had a certain picture in my head of how glam vs natural I wanted. Alexandra started with a more natural glam and was very patient with me as I asked for more this and more that. She really listens, but also provides you with an honest, professional opinion regarding what might be over the top. I really enjoyed working with Alexandra and she uses really great products. I definitely recommend! (I'm the girl in the flamingo romper if you scroll through the pictures) Thank you, Alexandra!
Alexandra does a beautiful natural glam look for brides! She was super fun to spend the morning with and had some nice essential oils on hand to share that helped me relax. The las...
