Awww thank you, Kelly! Loved working with you! So glad your lashes stayed on for a few days as well! 😊 Thats what I love about individual lashes!

She is a wonderfully talented makeup artist. Thank you again for everything!!!

Ashley!!! You are the sweetest! Thank you SO much for this kind review! You were amazing to work with as well! 😊 Congratulations again!
Dana was so wonderful and did an amazing job! She made me feel beautiful and confident with the amazing job she did and she was so nice and willing to accommodate any vision I had. You'll love having her be apart of your big day!
Dana did such an amazing job on our makeup! It was very humid and we did A LOT of dancing and my makeup looked just as flawless at the end of the night as it did at the beginning. I would definitely recommend her!
Dana deserves soooo much more than 5 stars. I don’t even know where to begin.... if you haven’t booked Dana for your special day yet, you NEED to. Not only is she incredibly talented— but she is kind, helpful, and makes your experience so much ...
fun!
When I contacted her for my wedding she had asked if I needed help choosing any other vendors or help with anything at all and I did...she’s who helped me choose my photographer and I’m SO grateful for that.
She truly was a dream come true. I can’t say enough about how beautiful she made my bridesmaids, my mom, and I look... and the makeup lasted all day and all night long- never needed a single touch up, except for lipstick (which she provides you with the color she uses for that ). Every single time I left her chair I felt so beautiful but what made me feel more beautiful is she’d look at me and give the sweetest compliments and I’d be so excited to look in the mirror to see what she did! I’ve had airbrush makeup done prior to Dana and never felt like myself and would always have to correct something. I never had to do this with her and always knew she’d do an awesome job. She truly is amazing and I couldn’t imagine my wedding day without her in it! :)
My wedding make up was amazing!!! Everyone in my party looked so beautiful and our make up stayed all night!! Even photos from 14 hours later I looked amazing!!! Dana was so nice and accommodating to everyone in my party and was able to match t...

encouraged me to give it another shot and it was perfect! Looked amazing in person and in photos as well. My entire team looked great. She managed to get 8 of us and 2 flower girls done in 4 and a half hours- make up AND lashes.
Thank you so much Dana!

Thank you, Erica for for the sweet review!! Loved working with you!
I was looking for a makeup artist for my wedding and when I came across Dana's website I loved that she used airbrush makeup and everyone's makeup looked so natural. Myself and my bridesmaids wear very minimal to no makeup so I knew I needed a ...
makeup artist who did the 'natural' look very well.
Dana is extremely quick to respond (even after the wedding). She listens and ensures you look exactly how you want to look. On the wedding day I asked her to tone down what we did during the trial and my makeup was absolutely perfect! My husband is not a fan of any makeup and he absolutely loved it.
Dana is amazing at what is does - she brings out natural beauty by enhancing it. I can't thank her enough for making me and my bridesmaids naturally stunning!
Response from the Vendor on 06/04/2019
Alison...thank you! I am so happy to be a part of your special day! You are too kind! Thank you for the review!
Dana was absolutely amazing! I did a trial with her a few months before the wedding. She listened to all of my suggestions and what I normally wear. She did not put so much makeup on me that I felt uncomfortable. The airbrush makeup made a hug...

Dana is the best! She did my makeup for my maternity shoot and my 1 year anniversary shoot. She makes your skin look flawless, is super fun, makes you feel so comfortable, and is very accommodating! Highly recommend her!
I booked Dana for my wedding for myself, bridesmaids, and mothers. She did an amazing job, was extremely professional and equally sweet! She got the look I was wanting perfectly. I definitely recommend her for any special event!
Dana is amazing!!!! Not only are her makeup skills phenomenal, but she is an absolute joy in every way. She went out of her way to accommodate me on the morning of my wedding, and listened to every note I made about my makeup. She is organized,...
professional, and so lovely. THANK YOU Dana, for doing such a beautiful job on my girls and me, and for being such a pleasure!!! It’s worth mentioning that I don’t wear much makeup to begin with, and was nervous about getting done up for my wedding (and especially nervous about airbrush!). Dana made me look so natural but still enhanced and beautiful, so don’t for a second think that airbrush is only for the “done up” bride. Everything was gorgeous, and I couldn’t be happier!

Thank you, Courtney! Your wedding was so beautiful! Still aweing over your pics:)
True Beauty by Dana stands by its name. Dana is the definition of a make-artist. Not only is she professional, but also such a sweet person. She listened to everyone's wants/needs and nailed every, single look. Dana worked with our schedule and...

Dana is the absolute best! She makes you feel super comfortable and relaxed while she's working, and the outcome is AMAZING. I didn't want to take my makeup off! Will definitely be using her again, and would absolutely recommend!!
I had my wedding this past weekend and cannot say enough good things about Dana. Not only are her makeup skills amazing, but she is exactly who you want around you on the morning of your wedding. She made my bridesmaids, myself, my MIL and my...
mother feel so comfortable.
I am also extremely picky about my makeup and somewhat of a perfectionist - with that being said, my makeup was PERFECT. It was better than I could have ever expected. I would highly recommend using Dana for your wedding day.

I have been using Dana for every special event for the last year and I have always loved what she has done! Dana glammed up myself and my bridesmaids, as well as my mom for my wedding day! She did such an amazing job with everyone! Dana is a sw...
eet woman and so knowledgeable. I hardly ever wear make up on a daily basis (if I do, it is only mascara) and she gave me some ideas on what I might like for my wedding day. We talked about different colors that would look best with my wedding day theme as well as my eye color, hair color and complexion. My wedding went by flawless as Dana showed up early and ready to get started. She was done ahead of schedule, which gave us a chance to have a breather before the craziness began. I will definitely be using Dana for all future make up needs! Thank you so much for traveling to Michigan for my dream wedding day!
Working with Dana was a treat! Not only is Dana an extremely talented makeup artist, she is fun to be around :) Dana accommodated my large bridal party and group needing their makeup done. Dana was alway quick to respond to phone calls, texts a...

Dana is not only a talented makeup artist but also a wonderful person. I purchased her services for my best friend as a wedding gift. Dana was well organized and kept in communication with the bride leading up to her big day. When the day was t...

Awesome work by True Beauty By Dana! I don't EVER wear makeup and I felt beautiful on my wedding day! So did all of my girls! Very accommodating too! She traveled over 50 miles to do our make up! Thank you so much Dana!
Dana is absolutely incredible. She made me and all of my bridesmaids feel gorgeous. She was a blast to work with and I will recommend her to anyone I know.
She was so personable. She made everyone feel comfortable and beautiful. I absolutely loved my makeup and wouldn't have wanted anyone else doing it for that special day!
Dana did my makeup recently for my daughter's Wedding and she was phenomenal! She did my eyes exactly as I wanted and was extremely personable. I highly recommend Dana for any weddings or events!
Love love love Dana! I can not tell you how many compliments I got about my eyes. I felt beautiful all day. Dana is a must for all of your occasions.
I usually don't wear makeup, but decided that I would for my special day. Dana did an outstanding job; making sure all of my requests and wants were met. The makeup lasted the entire night. I will definitely use her in the future and I highly r...
ecommend her!!!
Thank you again Dana! It was truly a pleasure getting to know you and having you play such an important role in my big day!
I can not say enough good things about Dana and her customer service! She is by far one of the nicest vendors I have worked with thus far. Having a destination wedding is tough when you do not know vendors in the area. Dana has gone out of her ...
way to not only recommend other vendor to help me in the planning process, but has also contacted vendors for availability. Kudos!! Thank you!
Dana was a pleasure to work with for makeup for my wedding- she did a great job making myself and bridesmaids look great!
I used True Beauty a couple months ago when taking part in my best friends wedding. Dana was recommended to me by a couple of brides who used her services prior. I was in charge of finding hair and makeup for the wedding party and was confident...
in my choice with Dana! Dana is so bubbly and kind, and exactly the type of personality you need to have around you on your wedding day. She is very time efficient and does flawless work in a very timely and consistent manner. She comes with all the right tools, including a ring light, which made everyone very confident that their makeup will be photo ready. The products she used are very reputable and she comes with a massive selection. Being in contact with Dana was a real pleasure. She is definitely a skilled business woman as she responds very quickly and stays in excellent contact. She was willing to work her schedule around the bride's when scheduling a trial on my best friend, and she was very punctual on the day of the wedding. I will refer Dana to anyone seeking makeup artistry services in the future! I even carry a couple of her business cards in my wallet.
If you're looking for a makeup artist look no further!!! Dana is the absolute best at what she does. She is professional, friendly, comes prepared early, enjoys what she does and will make you look amazing.. and the best part...it will last all...
day/night. Don't hesitate use True Beauty you won't regret it!! Thank you Dana for making this decision easy and stress free.
Dana was an absolute pleasure! If I could rate more than 5 stars I would. She is extremely talented! All of us girls looked absolutely flawless, and for the first time ever my make-up actually LASTED ALL NIGHT! I received more compliments on my...

Thank you so much, Lisa! You were the sweetest bride to work with! I wish you all the best and please keep in touch! I can't wait to see more of your pictures!
I used Dana's makeup application services for my wedding in September and I can't share enough praise about how happy we were with her! She is an amazing artist and every single one of my bridesmaids were SO happy with how their makeup turned o...
ut. (And there were 11 of them!) That's very rare for a group that size. I loved how my bridal makeup turned out and it lasted all night.
All of us did airbrush and fake lashes. It lasted all night and looked very natural. Perfect for pictures.
Dana was so much fun to spend the day with and I'm so glad she was available for my date! Thank you Dana for everything - we love you!
