Raya and her team were punctual on our special day. They came with full set up equipment. They stayed all day with me and my girls from 8am to 7pm with last minute requests from all of us! I wished I had them longer but I knew they were extremely exhausted! I am sorry! The makeup was so extreme that our face recognition on our phones did not recognize our faces so make sure you have a pin code on your phones also! The makeup for our photos came out great! Me and the girls are not used to all the makeup but understand why. Thank you so much for everything! If I could post more pictures I would but Thumbtack won’t allow it! Boo!!!!

Raya did a fantastic job and my makeup lasted till pass midnight. She is oriented to detail and easy to work with. She had a great pulse to address coloring, shades, foundation and what is best for you. I will definitely ask for her services again when need it. Highly recommended ladies!

Where do I even start!? Raya was amazing! She made me feel so comfortable and special. She listened to everything I had to say and wanted, took mental notes and captured it. I’m not a girl that wears makeup because I don’t like the feeling of it, but the way Raya did it made it feel like I wasn’t wearing any at all. Don’t get me started on my Hollywood waves, everyone loved them! Thank you so much Raya for making my day even more special! 💕

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing can be discounted based on the amount of clients I will be servicing. Also I do offer a referral discount.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to find out every detail; From skin, to what attire will be worn, the accessories and accent color. I like to see potential inspiration for the over all look and find out the level of comfortability with makeup.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
I wasn't a makeup gal until I had my daughter and started getting dark circles from not sleeping. I learned how to conceal, from there foundation, then eyeshadow...The rest is history.
