Michelle did my makeup on my wedding day, as well as my bridal party. She was FANTASTIC. I can honestly say I felt flawless and beautiful. She brought out everyone's natural beauty, while giving each of us us a unique and beautiful look. Michelle is truly a talented artist. Very professional and reliable and listens to what you want. Highly recommend!

I was so grateful to have found Michelle! As an overwhelmed bride who had recently had a horrible makeup trial with someone else, I could tell that Michelle was a good find as soon as I met her. She is classy, and her own makeup was perfection (I think this is an important detail when searching for a makeup artist capable of making you look your most beautiful!) She was understanding and patient with me in figuring out what I like and dislike and answered all of my questions (to airbrush or not to airbrush plus a million others). I enjoyed her personality and found her demeanor to be extremely calming. Her fees are certainly on par with most other Manhattan makeup artists and worth every penny (if not more)! If I could do it all over again, I would have done my first and only trial with Michelle and saved myself time and money. So many people were in awe of my makeup and have since requested her information. We just recently watched the highlight reel from the wedding for the first time and I was shocked at how my makeup stood up to the long day. I wholeheartedly recommend that you use Michelle for your big day – you won’t find a more talented artist. Thanks Michelle!

Michelle is AMAZING! After doing a trial before my engagement photo shoot I was sold! I used her for all of the big events leading up to the wedding (shower, rehearsal dinner, etc.) and of course on my big day. Michelle did the makeup for me, the mothers, bridesmaids, etc and we couldn't of been happier. She did a FABULOUS job! She is a joy to work with, very responsive and professional. I highly recommend Michelle.

michelle was great to work with. she listened to what i wanted done with my makeup and was respectful of my fair of being over made up. she gently nudged me to do a bit more than what i had originally wanted and i couldn't have been happier. my makeup lasted all night and i got tons of compliments. would definitely use her again.

Michelle was great. She was responsive, available and worked with me to find the exact budget and look I was aiming for. Highly professional, flexible and good at what she does. My bridesmaids, mother and I were all very pleased.

I had a great experience working with Michelle. I don't really wear a lot of make-up so I explained to her that I wanted a very natural look with a bit of color. I wasn't even really sure what that meant when i said it but I got the look i wanted and more. I felt beautiful,what more could a woman want on her big day. To top it all off she made all my bridesmaids look fantastic as well. I was really happy with her work. She kept in contact with me leading up to the event -- she was on time, was professional and friendly. I would recommend her for any event.

I found Michelle because of all of her wonderful reviews online. They couldn't be more accurate! Michelle arrives on time, is completely professional and does an amazing job! Even when she has someone like me who can't stop blinking when eye makeup is being applied. The makeup lasted all day, even in the July heat! I looked my best and so did all of my bridesmaids and the mothers! I'm so happy I used Michelle. I highly recommend her to any bride!!!

Michelle did a beautiful job with the makeup for me and my mom and sister and friend. She is a wonderful, calm presence and an absolute professional. I loved working with her and I loved how I looked on my wedding day.

My sister got married last year and the one vendor that I knew that I had to have was Michelle. She is phenomenal. I don't traditionally wear much make up at all (read - a little bit of cover up and the occasional eyeliner for a "dressy" event) and somehow Michelle managed to make me look spectacular but still just like me. On behalf of me, both my sisters, my mother, and *ALL* of my bridesmaids (a multi-ethnic group of ladies!) ---> Michelle is awesome. You have to have her.

Michelle applied make up on me, my mother and my sister on my wedding day! She did an amazing job and we all received many compliments and looked great in photos! She was reasonably priced, very professional, accommodating, and fun to work with!

Michelle really saved the day. As the mother of the bride, I had someone lined up to do makeup. The someone came, did the makeup, and it was a DISASTER! Michelle graciously took me on a moment's notice, wiped me up and started again, to great results. I would recommend her to anyone looking for professionalism, a pleasant attitude and great makeup. Thanks, Michelle!

Thank you again for everything this weekend! Everyone looked and felt beautiful. The make up stayed all night and all the girls loved their eye make up!

Michelle is an absolute pleasure to work with. My family hired her to do our makeup for my brother's wedding. As the sister of the groom, I was absolutely thrilled with how my makeup came out and I can say that my mother and grandmother never looked better. Our makeup was flawless and lasted perfectly from picture time until the end of the evening. I only wish I knew Michelle when I got married! I would highly recommend her.

Michelle came highly recommended to me by 2 of my friends that used her services for their wedding. Prior to my wedding day, Michelle did a make-up trial with me, and made sure I was completely happy with the results. She then noted all the products she used so that it could be replicated on my wedding day. She is very patient and listens to feedback very well, and most importantly knows how to apply make-up to enhance your beauty, without making it look overdone.

Michelle did my makeup on my wedding day, as well as my bridal party.
No easy task since there were 4 of us all needing to be ready at the same time, and only 1 of her !! Plus, there was a range in ages from 13-40. Not only did everyone look age appropriate, (and by that I mean the 13yr old didn't have makeup of a 35yr old), but she gave each of us a completely different, beautiful look.
I myself was worried because I've been doing the "same old-same old" thing with my makeup for years and have never been satisfied when I've let people do my makeup, but Michelle is truly a talented artist !!!
She's not only professional and reliable, but she listens to what you want and doesn't do what "she wants". She is a beautiful, fun person to work with. We had a memorable, fun experience, which is what the morning of your wedding day should be !!!
To this day she has remains a friend of our family :)
I HIGHLY recommend Michelle !!!!!!!! She's simply, THE BEST !!!!

Michelle and her assistant were AMAZING! I used them for myself, my mother, and my 6 bridesmaids - she worked quickly within our time frame and everyone looked absolutely stunning. She drove over two hours that morning to get to the wedding location and was actually early. Michelle was a HUGE help on my big day and I would highly recommend her to future brides!

Michelle is simply amazing! I immediately booked her after my trial which of course I loved. She made me feel comfortable right away. During the process, she was always responsive to emails and attentive to concerns. She helped plan the day of schedule to make sure things would run smoothly which they did. She brought along a second artist, Deanna, who was amazing as well. All my friends and family who got their make-up done were extremely pleased with the results. We all looked beautiful and can't thank them enough. I would recommend Flawless Beauty to any bride looking for great service and wonderful make-up. She truly did fantastic work and I could not be happier!

I cannot recommend or thank Michelle at Flawless Beauty enough!!! Not only did she make me and my mum look truly beautiful on my wedding day in September (which was tough considering we were both jet lagged) she was kind, thoughtful and always really quick to respond to any questions I had. It was more like having a very talented close friend do my make-up on the day opposed to someone I had only briefly met.
Based in England me and my hubby decided to get married in New York in September, I first contact Michelle via wedding wire back in the Autumn of 2009 and straight away she put me at ease and responded to all my questions (and there was a lot). When I came over from England with my mum before the wedding, she spent a great amount of time with me getting to know my style/likes/dislikes and created the perfect look for me. Being from England I also needed recommendations for facials, hair dressers even bars and restaurants...and Michelle was always only a email away, nothing was too much trouble!
On the wedding day she arrived on time and well armed with lots of fabulous Bobbi Brown Make-Up (which is by far the best makeup out there and great value given its quality). Michelle took so much time and care doing mine and my mum’s make-up. The quality was unbelievable.
I truly loved my wedding makeup, it looked great on the photo’s AND I never had to touch it up once (my makeup lasted from 1pm till nearly midnight – impressive to say it was a hot and humid New York summers day!!!)
My only regret is that I cannot take Michelle back to England to do my wedding party back home!!!
