Alissa is an outstanding makeup artist and an even better person! She is very professional and punctual with excellent communication plus has a great congenial nature and sense of humor. She ensured I was happy with the results and also provided a touch-up kit should that be required, which it turns out that it was. My mind was put at ease about my appearance and that allowed me to focus upon acting, which is a wonderful feeling. I will definitely look to hire Alissa again for any future projects requiring makeup. Thank you for the fantastic experience as well as speaking about life with me 🙂

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
All my service prices include personalized skin care based on your needs as well as a little touch up kit for you to keep. I discount my services for groups, especially young ladies and lads under 14years old.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We can discuss the look you’re going for, your specific/unique service requests, location of makeup application, the event, and your customized price. Come the time of our makeup meet up I will ask you just a few questions about your skin, how you normally do your makeup, if you have any allergies, if you have some pictures of looks that you love, and we will clarify the aesthetic you want.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have attended a plethora of cosmetic courses, seminars and 1 on 1 training through FabBrows USA, MAC Cosmetics, and Volta Beauty by Insomniac. I have also been internally certified by MAC Cosmetics.
