Vanessa Rose Makeup

nswered all my dumb questions like it was the first time she'd ever heard them and thought they were great questions to ask. So, from the get-go I knew Vanessa was the right person for the job. Anna was the actually human that did my hair and makeup the day of and she made me feel SO confident. I don't often dress up and I don't always like the spotlight on me and I knew I was going to feel out of place that just wasn't the case. Anna and I chatted about our similar weddings, food, anything. She really made me feel like this was natural. Not only that but Vanessa had told me to bring pictures of what I wanted (I had no idea what I wanted so I just pinned a few things on Pinterest). Anna took like 3 minutes to look and was like "Oh I totally get your style, lets get all this hair up and out of the way" and it was PERFECT. I'm so grateful to both Vanessa and Anna (who also changed times last minute) because they really made me feel so special and beautiful. So, book them!

y!

d that AND some. I cannot thank Vanessa and her team for making me feel the most beautiful I have ever felt! Demi was also phenomenal, her and Vanessa made my bridesmaids look stunning. Michelle, who did our hair, was INCREDIBLE. She went through 9 women, including me, and was ahead of schedule. Michelle is quick and detailed, just overall a phenomenal hair stylist! All of my girls looked gorgeous! I cannot thank Vanessa and her team enough for making my wedding day even better by bring out more of our beauty!

ly highly recommend!!!

. If you're looking to have your makeup done, Demi and her team are your girls. Thanks again!!

anessa was patient, understood the change I wanted, and it turned out perfectly. My mother must have changed her hair three times (simple style, but still), and Anna was also patient and kind as she tried to be sure everyone was happy. We had a few hiccups with our venue and where we'd be getting ready, but Vanessa rolled with the punches and came prepared with lighting on our gloomy morning. She was very accommodating with my limited availability for a trial (I was coming from Texas) and for that I was especially grateful. Take a look at her portfolio and if what you see is the hair/make up style that you like, book her! She will be a wonderful addition to your wedding vendor team!

the bride “trial run.” Highly recommend!

sweet throughout the entire process! Vanessa set me up with Bethany who is the sweetest, kindest person ever. Bethany was flexible with the dates and times I was available, she even offered to go to help me find the perfect nude lipstick for me! Bethany did a fantastic job at making my bridesmaids, my mom and myself feel and look absolutely beautiful the day of my wedding. Bethany and Vanessa genuinely love what they do and i would highly recommend them to anyone. Everyone still raves about how natural and beautiful our makeup looked that day. No flashback in photos, nothing heavy looking, natural and perfect. It was an outdoor wedding and it was hotttt but our makeup stayed in place ALL night. Thank you Vanessa and Bethany for your professionalism, your kindness and your willingness to go above and beyond for me and my bridal party!

le to do a trial, loved her makeup on the day of as well! It goes to show how skilled Vanessa is at her craft. Vanessa was flexible and accommodating with all of our wedding details and we would highly recommend booking her! She truly contributed in making our wedding day one that we will never forget!

and mom-in-law. They were also so calm and fun. Absolutely recommend (and I'm so picky)!!! Thank you Vanessa!!

vagant hair or simple, dramatic make up or natural, they really work with you vision. They are efficient, responsible, and talented.

f time to spare! She was also so much fun to work with!

ame hair do twice, unless the bride wants it that way! Aside from their talent and skill, they also are extremely quick! They never put a Bride behind schedule and for us we were way ahead of time! My hair and make up were out of this world and I felt like a goddess! I've never had so much confidence, thank Vanessa for making me a Princess for a day!

ay and executed it with absolute precision. I ended up changing my mind about my hairstyle and did a second trial with Anna. I showed her pictures of what I wanted and she recreated the style and made it even better than what I originally wanted! The makeup Vanessa did was elegant, classy and enhanced my best features without looking too done up. I would absolutely recommend Vanessa Rose for any event and hope to work with them again in the future!

ho does not wear a lot of makeup, I felt very comfortable and confident with the look she created. I would absolutely recommend her.

nce that's what I'm used to. It looked amazing. She also turned me on to my new favorite lipstick (and lipstick in general). The day of the wedding, my makeup turned out even better than the trial. My skin was flawless and everything stayed put all night long through the dancing and sweating and hugs, etc... If I were to do everything over I would 100% book Vanessa Rose Makeup and Demi again!

ed exactly what I wanted for my bridal look. I would highly recommend using Vanessa Rose Makeup!

d to take things in a different stylistic direction after the first trial. I don't wear much makeup at all day-to-day, and Vanessa was able to help me achieve the minimalist look I was hoping for! I felt the best I ever have! They are so kind, funny and good listeners! My mom was particularly nervous about her hair, and Bethany nailed it on the day! My bridal party looked like absolute babes, and I am so happy with Vanessa and Bethany's service that I would recommend them to anyone looking for an excellent beauty team for their wedding!

ning! They were as beautiful as I've ever seen. Her work was flawless and very natural, which is exactly what we were going for. And it lasted the whole day / night through! Would definitely recommend this company to all the future brides out there. Thank you for helping make our day so memorable!

my bridal shower. On the wedding day we got ready at my parents house and Ryann fit in with all of us like we'd known her forever. She did an amazing job with all of our different skin tones and desired looks. I wanted to tweak one thing from my trial and she was responsive and got the look that I wanted. I would recommend Ryann for anyone looking for a natural, elegant, look!

he morning of our wedding. She was extremely responsive to all of me emails and questions. Coming in for a hair and makeup trial was great and gave me an opportunity to see what I liked and didn't like. The day of my wedding, the stayed on schedule and did a fantastic job. Everyone looked amazing! I was very happy with my hair and makeup my wedding day, and my seven bridesmaid, mom, mother-in-law, and flowers girls were too! Thank you Vanessa Rose Makeup for making being apart of my dream wedding!

be more pleased with our choice to have Vanessa on my wedding day!

d I received a million compliments!

up and we looked beautiful! As a very important side note, I live in Florida and got married in Chicagoland and therefore could not do a trial. As scary as this was, I felt confident using Vanessa Rose Makeup, and they ensured I looked beautiful in this not ideal situation.

was nervous, as it was her first time getting her makeup done, but she was in excellent hands. Vanessa made her look stunning, and she was so happy! Anna cranked through myself, 6 bridesmaids, 2 flower girls, and the MOG in less time than we originally planned for, and everyone's hair looked AWESOME! She did my hair exactly how I wanted, in fact it turned out better than I had even envisioned. Some girls came to her with ideas, some didn't, and she was an absolute pro and the up-do's were so beautiful and creative! Everyone raved about their hair. I can't say enough good things about Vanessa and Anna! They are so professional, but also genuinely nice people and it was fun to have them as part of my wedding day! I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend them to any bride!!

long as they had natural light... Anna even set up on a balcony off of my bridal suite overlooking the golf course, which was so fun! They were also patient with me when I ran back and forth to the mirror several times to ask for more or less of something to be used. My make-up lasted all night, and I didn't worry about it at all after it was finished. Additionally, Vanessa was so easy to work with on scheduling and anything else that I needed, prior to my wedding. I would definitely recommend Vanessa Rose to friends (actually, I already have)!

makeup looked. Would definitely recommend Vanessa Rose Makeup to anybody!!! Love, love, love!!! The girls were also super fun and so sweet, we had a great morning hanging out with them!!!!!

executed, and she was able to stay on schedule, even with how distracted everyone was. Bethany did our hair the day of, and she was just as amazing! Both my hair and make up held up well through the August heat and dancing all night. They did a wonderful job for me and all my bridesmaids!!! I can't believe how well everything turned out!

the scheduling and planning so easy. I had a pretty big bridal party (8 bridesmaids and then my mom and myself) and her team made each of us look beautiful! For make-up, Ryann and Demi were both amazing. Megan did our hair and also did an awesome job! I was so happy with my appearance and everyone else felt the same way. I highly recommend them!

awesome and made the day run smoother. She arranged for the hair person too. She was super knowledgeable and helpful! Definitely recommend her team they were awesome!!

henomonal job. Everyone was complimenting how great they were to work with. I would reccommend them for any hair or makeup services you may need!!

my big day!

ho have booked Vanessa's team for their upcoming weddings. I would highly suggest booking them!

p trials. They were extremely professional and talented. I would without a doubt recommend Vanessa Rose to any of my friends that are getting married. Both Vanessa and her team showed up on my wedding day on time and and even finished early with time to spare! I cannot wait to see the professional pictures from the wedding and again, I could not be happier with Vanessa Rose Makeup!

anning. Vanessa Rose's team by far exceeded any expectation and vision I had, for not only my own hair and makeup, but for that of 5 bridesmaids, 2 mothers, and our officiant. To consistently be able to deliver stunning looks on 9 very different women; women with different hair length/textures/colors, and different skin tones, of different ages, etc; is nothing less than a momentous feat! And they nailed it. With. Every. Single. Woman. Every woman in my wedding party told me they felt beautiful, and I could see it on their faces (literally!); which is all you ever want to hear and know as a bride. I met Vanessa through a referral and once I had my trial with her and her team, I didn't turn back. In addition to being communicative and easy to work with/accommodating, they brought so much positivity and energy into the "getting ready" portion of the day. It was just FUN to be around them and they felt like a perfect addition to the party. I was so sad to hug them goodbye after my hair and make-up was complete, because I just wanted to keep working with them! I would strongly recommend Vanessa Rose as a bride and for your entire bridal party. I witnessed first hand how talented they are. You will not regret working with them as your hair and makeup vendor! I hope I get to have the opportunity to work with them in the future for another occasion!

uge thank you to Vanessa for helping me out by answering all my questions along the way and for sending these two awesome ladies to make me look beautiful on my wedding day.

l the ladies looked "uniform". I would work with her again in a heartbeat!!

anted to talk to her (something that didn't happen with all my vendors). She was always on time and we were even able to get everyone's makeup finished earlier than we planned. My makeup lasted all day and looks great in pictures. Would highly recommend working with her!

look. Vanessa was FANTASTIC! I was blown away by her talent and demeanor. She asked specifically what I liked and how I prefer to have my makeup. I received many compliments that evening on how well my makeup looked. It lasted all night (I did airbrush) and the only touch-up I needed was a hint of lipstick after dinner. She also gave me tips on wearing everyday makeup (I'm more of a 'plain Jane', so how to amp up my 'everyday' look) Vanessa was super easy to talk to....it was like talking to my best friend. I enjoyed her so much that I have actually hired her to do my own wedding in 2017. Vanessa is amazing. I'm looking forward to having her do my makeup again!

amily to have their makeup and hair done for a special occasion. Thank you so much to Vanessa for helping me and sending these two awesome girls to make me look beautiful on my wedding day.

ed all day and night

we did the trial she looked and adjusted accordingly with my feedback and it was perfect for the wedding. My makeup snob friends were blown away but her attention to detail and how amazing her skills were (thanks to her I am also now obsessed with fake eyelashes, because she makes them look so awesome). Thank you Ryann for helping me feel like I was the prettiest woman in the room. That was a first and the way every bride should feel on her wedding day.

autiful and barely had to touch up my make-up during my wedding (besides the obvious lipstick from all the SMOOCHING). lol Honestly, she was phenomenal and my day wouldn't have been complete without her. Vanessa also dolled up my bridesmaids and my mother and they were beyond stunning! Any brides out there that are looking for a makeup artist VANESSA is your girl!

it with the chaos that was with planning my wedding. The day-of my wedding was just as flawless as my trial. Vanessa traveled to where I and part of my bridal party were getting hair services done. We had a great time listening to music and talking while they got everyone all made up. The makeup lasted all night without a smudge, and even thru all the tears! Airbrush is definitely the way to go and get lashes! I couldn't have asked for a better make-up artist! She did my makeup exactly how I wanted it done. She was quick and efficient and made myself and my whole wedding party, look stunning. I will absolutely be using her services again!

y for the big day. I would absolutely use her services again!

were very happy with their makeup as well. I would recommend her!

something beautiful - her talent is evident! My makeup lasted all day, and did not feel cakey or overdone. She worked with me to create a prep schedule that coordinated with hair appointments scheduled at a nearby salon, and made sure we stayed on track for photos and departure. Vanessa also did makeup for my bridesmaids and mom, who turned out equally as beautiful. My bridal party raved about their makeup for days after the event, and one of my bridesmaids who will be married in Oregon even used pictures of her makeup done by Vanessa to show her artist out west. Do yourself a favor and book Vanessa. She is awesome and highly recommended! She is also just a generally fun and nice person, which makes the experience even better!

ys/times), and made big improvements between then and the wedding. I was more nervous about the changes needed for my hair, since we didn't really nail down my "look" at the hair trial, but Heather really stepped up and learned some new techniques for me. The makeup stayed well, but the hair fell both on me and on my bridesmaids, who were styled with half up-half down large curls. It was really chilly and humid on the wedding day and we went outside for photos for a couple of hours between hair and ceremony, which may account for some of this, but I feel like it should have stayed nicer for a little longer. Thank goodness we had a friend on hand who brought her heatproof glove and a professional grade curling iron to do touch-ups before the ceremony. Overall, I would still recommend Vanessa Rose Makeup for professionalism, value and makeup style, with some reservations about the stay-put of hairstyles.

have our trial and she was very accommodating to reschedule. The day-of was so much fun. Vanessa and her girls were so easy to get along with. They came to my apartment in the city and we had a great time listening to music and hanging out all day while they got everyone all made up. The hair/makeup lasted all night without a smudge! Airbrush is definitely the way to go and get lashes! I had a few girls who were skeptical but Vanessa uses individual lashes not strips and they looked very natural and were lightweight. I couldn't have asked for a better group!

needed vanessa did. I asked for a little extra touch on my eyes and she did it without question. She made sure to touch up my makeup before show time and added a little extra sparkle so I would shine! Every one of my bridesmaids loved what she did with their makeup. Each one was just a little different than the other and she matched their style to their dresses. I have recommended her to every bride I know. In fact she is doing my friends wedding this coming June! Vanessa has alot of knowledge on technique what looks appropriate and how to really give you the flawless look. I have never seen or had such a flawless look!! The airbrush was beautiful and I was glowing in pictures. She even did complimentary blush and sparkles on my flower Girls. I wish I could get married every year so I could have vanessa doing my makeup. Even the girls that wear no makeup vanessa showed them how amazing they look with it on!! I HIGHLY recommend vanessa to anyone and her prices are beyond reasonable!!!

e was off and you felt like you could be honest about your opinions. The day of the girls were all very punctual and came very prepared and ready to work. They were fast and efficient and very sweet additions to the day. Vanessa does an amazing makeup job. Everyone who got their makeup done felt like they looked so pretty because her talent is honestly top notch. Her hairstylsts were really good all my bridesmaids really liked their hair. My hair didn't turn out exactly how I wanted it and ultimately I didn't really like it but I think I should have spoken up more instead of being placated. Overall, great job.

y. I really loved my makeup and my hair that day. I did a trial and was not so happy with it so they changed my hair completely that day and it made such a difference. Vanessa made me look like I had gotten all the sleep in the world that day! I had a rather early ceremony and failed to tell her ahead of time that I needed extra people, however she came in at like 4:45/4:30 with a smile on her face dealing with my tired and crabby bridesmaids (haha.) She airbrushed all of my bridesmaids for very little additional cost without me even asking due to the time she had to come in to get my large bridal party finished. As much compliments that I did get that day, I feel like my sister got more. My sister has Downs Syndrome and can often look silly with makeup. People kept coming up to me and telling me how beautiful and natural she looked and how they have NEVER seen her look that way. Way to go Vanessa Rose! A good and friendly makeup artist can really make or break a wedding in terms of getting the best pictures and videos. In addition her calming and friendly nature also set such a positive tone for the rest of an amazing day. I really can not find anything negative to say.

nderful team. I cannot express how happy I am that I found them. My trials with both of them were great- they truly listened to what I wanted and gave wonderful truthful suggestions as well. They were friendly, honest, and prompt during the entire planning process. Day of- they were right on time, literally on the dot, to set up and got started and finished with time to spare! They do amazing work and use quality products. Vanessa did all our makeup and I cannot honestly say my wedding party and I have ever felt so beautiful! She did amazing airbrush for a super affordable price, fake lashes(which I was at first scared of until I saw how natural and amazing she does them). Heather made everyone's intricate hair styles that each girl showed her come to life. The curls all held and everyone's hair turned out PERFECT! They were super fun to work with too! The makeup and hair started at 9am, with my ceremony not starting until 5 I was nervous...but the makeup and hair looked just as good by midnight! Through crying and dancing, it was amazing! I HIGHLY recommend this team. Fun, flexible, affordable, true quality, reliable...what more could you ask for on your special day!

especially if you are looking for excellent precision with wedding hair & makeup.

it perfectly into what I was looking for. The air brush and eye makeup lasted very well throughout a long day and taking pictures outside. She also did a fantastic job with all of the different skin types and varying comfort levels with make up. I would absolutely recommend Vanessa for wedding or other special occasion make up. Only watch out is to be sure that whomever is paying has cash as she does not take checks.

uldn't be nicer and is so flexible in offering to come to you on your wedding day. I would definitely recommend Vanessa to any bride in the Chicagoland area!

s stuff once it's on, and it looks so natural. She really has a talent for what looks good on camera too. She made my bridesmaids look absolutely incredible! I looked like a more beautiful version of myself, which my groom and I both really appreciated. Thanks Vanessa, you did an awesome job, and really made us all look amazing.

her. The day of my wedding I truly feel that my make up pulled my whole look together. She is also VERY affordable in comparison to the other make up artists I looked into. USE HER! You will not regret it.

, but WOW are they worth it. On my wedding day Vanessa and Anna were on time and so accomidating with the entire wedding party. I have never felt so beautiful and I would recommend them a million times over!!! Thanks Vanessa and Anna - you two are absolutely amazing :)

n-law. My makeup looked outstanding and lasted the entire day. The makeup was applied around 11am and it was still completely perfect by the end of the reception that evening at midnight. I received so many compliments on my makeup. Three of my friends at my wedding are currently planning their weddings and they all asked for Vanessa's contact information so they could set up consultations with her for their big day. The other three women that received airbrushing for my wedding were completely impressed as well. Their makeup looked great and lasted the entire day and night, through sweat and tears. I would use Vanessa again and would highly recommend her.

esome pricing! Would recommend them to anyone!

really lasted all through out my wedding! I love her!
