Praise was amazing. Very professional yet personable. We talked and laughed (a lot) during our session. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED!! My makeup when she was done. She asked what looked I wanted and she delivered. I immediately booked her for another event a few weeks away.

Parise is absolutely fabulous!! She did an incredible job for my daughters 11th Golden Glam Birthday. We were running late and she worked super fast to get all the girls’ makeup looking absolutely beautiful. She made them feel so special and I couldn’t be more grateful!! Thank you, thank you for making my girl’s day so special!

Let me start by saying I was soooooo nervous because I've never had my makeup professionally done. My previous experiences with makeup did not match my complexion, so embarrassing. I hired Parise to do makeup for the headshot of my business so, this process was very important for me. From beginning to end Parise was patient, considerate and hilarious which really helped with my nerves. Prior to meeting I sent her pics of what I'd like my makeup to look like. I didn't really expect to look like the pic b/c honestly how often do we look like the model wearing the item we like (rarely ever). Well, Parise executed the look precisely. All day people were driving by my photoshoot screaming " You are soooooo beautiful!!!" That has never happened to me. She followed up with me afterwards to make sure the shoot went well. She gave me tips and a little of product to help me keep my look fresh throughout the photoshoot. She just went above and beyond. She works from the heart; I felt it in her energy and saw it in her amazing work. She is truly gifted and a Godsend. If you're questioning or unsure, don't be; she is skilled. This is coming from someone who can be kinda picky and a bit standoffish. Thanks so much Parise! You are incredible.
Details: Photo shoot • 26 - 44 years old • Standard (brushes, sponges, etc.) • 1 person • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

I’m more than happy and overjoyed with Parise from our first conversation. She did all of my female wedding party makeup which was 7 people including myself. None of us wear makeup on a regular basis but she made everyone feel comfortable and natural. She helped me in ways I didn’t expect. Very professional skilled ,and knowledgeable. She was on time and respectful of our time and was sweet and thoughtful to relax me for my wedding and my now husband. I received dozens of compliments on looking younger I would hire Parise again in a heartbeat.
