Reviewed On 12/05/2016 by Laura P
I have received more compliments on my makeup from my wedding day than I ever could imagine! Jessica came highly recommended by my hair stylist. From the second I reached out to Jessica about makeup, I was put at ease and felt totally comforta...
ble with her and the entire process. Jessica worked one on one with me to set up a trial visit and gently and lovingly took me from an excited bride who NEVER wore makeup to a confident wife who wears makeup daily...I even get lashes put on monthly with Jessica now! And I LOVE it! The day of my wedding she arrived, on site, early with EVERYTHING she needed and more...down to her own lighting to ensure for a successful experience. Her kindness and compassion put not only me, the bride, at ease but all of my wedding party as well. We had arranged ahead of time to manage time with how many of 'my girls' wanted to get their makeup done. As soon as everyone saw what a beautiful job Jessica did...more of the wedding party wanted to have their makeup done. Jessica didn't miss a beat and was able to meet EVERY need that was brought her way. I am truly grateful for her skill and talent! She helped me to feel so beautiful on my wedding day! After the wedding I met with Jessica to learn more about the basics of makeup. We had a good laugh at the fact that I didn't even own makeup! Jessica taught me how to apply makeup and even went so far as to create a list of supplies she recommended for my personal needs....right down to which brushes are used for which makeup. We scheduled another appointment for Jessica to teach me how to use the makeup I purchased I currently am a client of hers for eyelash extensions. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day that I wanted to continue to learn more and work with Jessica to continue that feeling of confidence with makeup and lashes. I am absolutely at a loss for words when I try to describe how impressed I am with Jessica...because I know word can't do justice for her talent! If you are looking for someone who will make you feel comfortable, who will work with your schedule for both the trial and the big day, and who will become one of your biggest cheerleaders to educate you about makeup and being the most beautiful person inside and out-then Jessica Holtz is the woman you are looking for! When I grow old and reflect on my wedding day I have no doubt that I will remember how amazing Jessica was to me! It is without hesitation that I recommend her to you for absolutely stunning wedding makeup! Thank you, Jessica, for being you! I am blessed to have had you be a part of my big day! :)

She's in a whole other class compared to the majority of "makeup artists" out there. Book her, you won't regret it.

She never lets a client feel rushed, in fact she always leaves each client feeling educated about their skin, gives tips on beauty products, and she tailors each client’s makeup inspiration photo perfectly to THEM. Jess is so amazing to be around. She takes time to get to know all of her clients, and you feel fully taken care of when you’re in her chair. I’ve had the pleasure of Jess doing my very own makeup and it was FLAWLESS. She has done my lashes many times, and has also microbladed my eyebrows (which I’m still obsessed with, and it’s been one full year since having them done). I trust her with EVERY beauty service. She is an absolute expert in this field!

She is so skilled that not only does Jess do makeup but also does a number of other skin care and beauty things.

My fiance and I both live in NYC and decided to get married in Middletown, NY. My wedding coordinator had used Jessica for her own wedding and highly recommended her. When I looked at Jessica's website and saw the pictures of her work, I knew...
that she was the makeup artist that I wanted for my wedding. Fortunately, Jessica was available on my wedding date and was able to schedule a trial within weeks from our initial conversation. I do not wear heavy makeup at all and wanted a natural look but still wanted to be a bit "done up" given that it was my wedding. When I met with Jessica, I brought in inspiration pictures, and she captured exactly the look I wanted. I could not have been more happy with how my makeup came out for our wedding. Additionally, my bridesmaids all of which were of different skin tones, are still raving about Jessica and how beautiful they felt after getting their makeup done. We have all been in multiple weddings and all agree that Jessica is the best makeup artist that we have worked with. It is very difficult to find someone that can understand the nuances of working with different skin tones. I wish Jessica lived closer to the city, so that I can use her for every event I have. I highly recommend working with Jessica, and booking quickly as she does tend to book up far in advance.

own out of the water. Jessica's studio is cosy, CLEAN and inviting. Jessica was booked that day, so she had one of her make up artists, America, do my trial and it was a great experience. They listened to what I said, looked at the pictures I brought, and gave me advice (i didn't really know what i wanted except that I wanted it to be natural). Even though Jessica would not be doing my makeup, she stayed for the whole thing and gave her input and guidance as needed. That was huge for me - it showed her professionalism that she cared and wanted the best for me even though she wasn't doing it herself. On the day of the wedding, America was on time, super friendly and easy going. Her makeup skills are flawless. She does not rush at all, but manages to keep everyone on schedule at the same time. For someone who doesn't wear makeup regularly, I was a little nervous that I'd feel over done. But it was perfect. America understood that and made me feel beautiful and like myself. Finally, I should mention that my mother was so thrilled with her make up - and that is no easy feat! Like me, she never wears makeup so she was a little nervous too. She looked beautiful and she was so happy! Thank you America and Jessica for being awesome and making everyone look great and feel comfortable!

I had worked with her for one of my best friend’s weddings last July and when I got engaged I KNEW that I had to call her to see if she was available for my wedding. Both times I worked with her she did an absolutely fantastic job with everyone’s make up! The first wedding that I was in had 12 bridesmaids and every single one of them was very happy with their make up – which is no small feat especially with a bunch of NYC girls. When I worked with her for my wedding she once again absolutely knocked it out of the park. Everyone absolutely loved their make up, especially me. My bridesmaids were not used to wearing a ton of make up so she made them just look like the most naturally beautiful version of themselves which was perfect. She did my mother and mother in laws make up – which is also very difficult because they have no idea what they want and she did such an excellent job – I have never seen my mother look so beautiful! As for my makeup, she worked with me at the trial and then we took a little different route for the wedding, which I was absolutely pleased with! I felt beautiful and the best version of myself all day – which is all you can ask for. As for her demeanor Jessica is so sweet and friendly that you feel like your chatting with your best friend while getting your make up done so it makes you feel at ease on your wedding day! I absolutely recommend her for weddings – and actually was talking to her and were going to work together on some facials and getting my skin cleared up! Love love loved working with her!

Words cannot even begin to describe how amazing Jessica is, and how important she was to me on my wedding day and the months leading up to it. After I began to have some clarity after the initial excitement over my engagement, reality struck...
me like a ton of bricks: how am I going to look beautiful on the biggest day of my life with skin like mine? I had a gorgeous dress, yet I found myself in tears wondering if I could wear my veil’s blusher throughout the reception to hide my face. So many of us suffer from adult acne, and mine is stress-induced, so planning a wedding wasn’t exactly going to be kind on my skin. I did a little research, and after reading and hearing so many positive reviews about Simply Elegant Beauty, I decided to give Jessica a call. She set up a complimentary consultation immediately. We met at a local Starbucks (my comfort zone) and had a conversation I had been dreading due to embarrassment. Within seconds, I was at ease and in full-flow of questioning. She answered each one of my questions as I took notes. She educated me about different professional treatments available (which I ended up booking with her, as she is a licensed esthetician!), what types of products I should use and how to use them for my skin, and finally, how regardless my skin ended up looking, she would be able to use her high-end quality makeup to transform me into the flawless bride I was dreaming of. Here is the plan we came up with together: -a few, alternating facials and microdermabrasion -proper facial cleansers for my face -proper exfoliators -proper moisturizers -proper spot treatments—tea tree oil is my new best friend -de-stress by purposefully finding the time to do so -drink TONS of water and herbal tea -makeup trial This brings me to the next awesome part of my experience with Jessica: my makeup trial. She came right to my house to do my makeup trial, and after showing her a few pictures of the “look” I was going for, she hopped right to it! Afterword, I felt and looked amazing. It was exactly what I wanted: a dewy, fresh-yet-sexy look with lightly bronzed smokey eyes that made my blue eyes pop! (I am no makeup artist, but that was the description I gave her lol!) The next few months leading up to the big day, I visited her for facials and micro, where she would also provide me with more skincare advice that totally worked every time. **THIS WAS AWESOME. If you book Jessica for makeup and want facials too, book the facials with her—nobody needs to know your skin as much as your makeup artist, and by the time your big day comes, she will know it inside and out. Literally! My wedding day, Jessica arrived on-time and ready to go at 6:30AM at the hotel I was staying at. She took her time on every inch of my face, and because she did my eyes before my face makeup, I was able to see what I looked like before concealer and foundation. I cried a little when I actually felt that I barely needed any! Obviously I did for pictures, but it gave me hope for honeymooning in the Caribbean without makeup! Phew! I can honestly say that I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day, and it was because of Jessica’s skilled art in makeup application, and because of how Jessica’s easy-going, positive persona made me feel on the inside. I was relaxed as I was driven to my ceremony, in a state of complete joy and bliss—a feeling every bride should have.

I recently got married on June 7,2014 and Jessica was amazing to work with the morning of my wedding day and the months leading up to that day. Jessica was very easy to contact and talk to. She gave me tips on keeping my face clean and healthy...
with the leading months and days to my big day. Between me and my bridal party we were so pleased with the work that Jessica did! She made us all feel beautiful, especially me! I couldn't help but look at myself in the mirror for the rest of the day because I was so happy with how everything turned out. By the end of the night my guests could not believe that my makeup was still as beautiful as it was from that morning. With just a little touch up of lipstick and blush at one point during the night it was perfect. ( And through Jessica I purchased the lipstick and blush so that I could touch up the makeup if needed). I would highly recommend Jessica as your makeup artist for any occasion you want to feel your best and beautiful at. I could not thank her enough for what she did for me and my girls on my wedding day!!!

I had Jessica do my make up for me, my two bridesmaids, and my mom. We all came out beautiful. She took the time with each of us and did exactly what we wanted. I had some clumps of mascara and she took her time to get every little one out unti...

I had my makeup trial with Jessica today for my upcoming wedding and couldn't have been more pleased! From the minute I originally called Jessica, she put my mind at ease. Not only did she recommend a great hair stylist when I mentioned that i ...
still needed someone for hair, but her prices were totally reasonable and she was so sweet, professional, and accomodating about finding a weekend and time that worked well despite my living in the city. I sent her my pinterest board of inspirational photos and some photos of myself ahead of time, and when I arrived to her beautiful home studio today it was so clear that she had spent time really reviewing what I liked and thinking about what would look great on me. The make up she did was beautiful. I looked like the most flawless version of myself and couldn't be happier or more excited for my wedding day - I booked her on the spot! If you are a bride in the NYC or Hudson Valley area, I strongly suggest you call Jessica!

Jessica was fantastic to work with all around. She was early for both the trial & wedding. As she set up on location both times she was quick & meticulous about the cleanliness of her work space & ensuring the lighting was good. I had expec...
ted it to get a bit crazy with multiple people in such a small space as we were getting ready i.e hair/photographer but it never did she was very professional & worked well with the other vendors. During the make-up application she was extremely considerate at each step of the way to get my input. I brought pictures that she used to get ideas with which I would recommend. With the pictures, my input and faith in her recommendations my make-up turned out better than I could have even imagined. The pictures turned out great, no glare or runny make-up. She had left me with some lip gloss which she had customized. She was even able to talk my mom into getting make-up and doing a light, natural look for her that was so beautiful. I would highly recommend Jessica and would use her again in a heartbeat!
