Absolutely amazing! I can't say nothing but great things. This was the first time I've ever gone to a makeup artist and I couldn't ask for a more perfect experience! I was so nervous going to a makeup artist for the first time but she created such a welcoming, positive, happy, fun environment. I loved her company and she is a joy to be around. She is an amazing artist and worked miracles on my face, I never thought I could look so beautiful. If you are looking for a talented artist that is just amazing to work with look no further. I will definitely recommend her to anyone I know who is looking for a makeup up artist, she is the best!

Akilah was amazing! She did makeup for me and my mother before a special family celebration. We wanted to look good since we had a professional photographer for the event. Akilah listened to my needs and applied the makeup so that it looked very natural. Akilah was on time and worked at a good pace so that we were not late for our event. Akilah played spa music while applying makeup which made me very relaxed before the big day! I would highly recommend her to anyone that wants to look beautiful on a special occasion!
