Cierra and her team are so wonderful! I usually don’t apply a lot of makeup, usually just mascara and eye liner, so I wanted something simple, natural, yet glam enough to make me feel beautiful on my wedding day. I researched so many different ...beauty vendors in the RVA and surrounding areas until I found Cierra and her company. I saw her photo profile on her website and saw she had a range of glam and natural beauty styles from past clients which is what initially drew me into starting a conversation with Cierra.
She was always so timely with her messaging me back, we had a phone call where each question asked was answered in such a kind and reassuring way. I booked Cierra for my big day because communication and customer service was amazing, plus her past clientele work looked phenomenal. The day for my trial finally came and Cierra was so great! I was nervous but instantly felt relaxed with a positive atmosphere. Cierra asked for photos of inspo when I arrived which we then discussed in detail what I liked and disliked from those photos, what I wanted for my day, and what my normal day-to-day makeup routine looked like.
We had plenty of time for the trial, and I felt encouraged and supported throughout with what I wanted. We changed only a few things like foundation color, lipstick color, and eye shadow softness and Cierra was happy to do it all! She took many photos to keep what I wanted as the new inspo for the day of my wedding.
A few days before my wedding, Cierra personally reached out to let me know she was unable to come as she had a staffing issue occur suddenly. I honestly panicked a little being a type-A bride, but she reassured everything was great and she communicated with my new day-of artist what I wanted. On the day, my artist Keisha did such a PHENOMENAL job on my makeup. She listed to what I wanted, quickly got it done and made any changes throughout the morning, and was so encouraging. She made me feel beautiful just like my trial did with Cierra. I received so many compliments and I’m so happy we booked Cierra and her team.
