I am not a normal makeup wearer! Special bridal shower occasion! Dionne made this a great experience! Her response to my request was prompt! She was clear with her contact, pricing, travel and arrival! She understood my desire for a natural look. I was very happy with my final look! Thank you!

This is the best makeup artist I’ve had in my whole entire life! Needed Dionne for a last minute wedding. I’m still navigating motherhood and look a mess lol but Dionne bought me back to life with a glam look that was simply beautiful! I received so many compliments!
She was on time, gave me extra skincare tips, and my makeup stayed on even in the heat!

Dionne Ford Makeup was very responsive and made me feel extremely comfortable. I am not familiar with artists or getting my makeup professionally done, so this entire process was new to me. Thankfully, Dionne Ford called me within minutes and took care of everything. She connected my request to a Facebook group she belongs to and provided me with a point of contact who could better fit my tight schedule. Although I did not book with her directly, her involvement helped me schedule my makeup appointment. Thank you, Dionne Ford. I am very grateful!

Dionne did an excellent job with my daughter’s makeup. In addition to being an amazing makeup artist, she has a wonderfully personality and contagious positive energy. We enjoyed working with her and my daughter’s face made it through 2 events and record high temperatures.
