Betsy is great at what she does, I am so happy I choose her to do my makeup for my big day! I don’t normally wear much makeup & I was a little timid with having my makeup done professionally – I wanted to still look like “me”. She really understood my desire for a natural look & I felt so beautiful on my wedding day, yet still myself, which was really important to me. And she did it all with very little help from me, because I didn’t really know what I wanted! But she is a professional, asked the right questions, listened patiently & gave me the look that was right for me

Not only did she do a great job with my makeup, but she was available on short notice & happy to be there very early (10am wedding; girls you know what time that means you start getting ready!) She has such a calming presence (& everything she uses smells great!), which was a huge blessing the morning of the wedding. As you have read, she gives you a little pouch with everything you might need, and even though you don’t really need it, you know that it is there just in case, which is HUGE. One less thing; this is big when you have so much else to think about. She just makes the process simpler & less stressful.

Betsy is very easy-going, friendly, & considerate. I have known her most of my life (she is my neighbor), but I still wasn’t sure about having someone else do my makeup (I have had a few bad experiences with getting my makeup done that were NOT the natural look I pleaded for). After the trial run, I was confident that she understood me & I was able to trust her completely with my makeup. I assure you that you can trust her too – she is better than I could have ever hoped for and I can’t thank her enough!
