Makeup by Rachel Bush

Rachel did a beautiful job for my practice session (the same night as my bachelorette party) and my day-of wedding make-up. I think that wedding make-up is so darn expensive, so after I saw a couple of non-prof wedding pics, I was really regretting my decision to spend so much on make-up. Then… I saw the photog’s preview and our highlight video and am so, so glad that I had Rachel do my make-up. It looked GORGEOUS! She was so friendly and also very quick to respond to emails. Definitely worth every penny!

Rachel did an amazing job on my bridal party and myself. All of my bridesmaids looked absolutely beautiful and I've never seen my mother so gorgeous! My makeup looked so wonderful and I received so many compliments from my guests and my groom!

Exactly what I wanted. When I saw Rachel's portfolio, I knew that she was amazing makeup artist. She had a variety of models and styles of makeup, so I could tell that she really listened to what her clients wanted and were comfortable with. The trial went perfectly, she was on time, and we spent a little while going over what I was looking for and how I felt about makeup in general. She knew I wasn't comfortable with makeup, but that I definitely wanted to be glamorous on the day of. She made me look flawless! She really played up my eyes, making sure that they stood out, and the rest of my face was a very natural palette. I went with airbrush, my mom and sister had the traditional makeup and my 4 other bridesmaids had their eyes done. She was amazing with everybody, really doing a good job bringing out each individual girl's personality and yet still making us look like one cohesive bridal party.
If you want you and your girls to look perfect the day of - then you definitely want to go with...

Rachel was fabulous, I highly recommend her. Rachel was very friendly, always quick to respond to emails before the date, and great at working with each person to have a beautiful individualized look. I had the airbrush service and I received at least 20 compliments on my makeup. I couldn't believe how long it lasted too, as I washed my face before bed my makeup looked just as great as it did that morning.

Thank you so much for your great work...

I had one month to my wedding, and was desperately looking for a makeup artist. Rachel was my number one choice, and she was available! Her prices were very reasonable. She was extremely professional from our first e-mail. Rachel did my airbrush makeup, my moms, my mother in laws, 2 bridesmaids, and covered 2 tattoos. The tattoos were covered very well. My makeup lasted the entire day. She finished everyone ahead of schedule. I loved that we were able to talk about things and make adjustments. Everyone said I wouldn't be happy getting my makeup done professionally, since I always wear a lot of makeup. I was thrilled with her work, and would highly recommend her!!! Thank You Rachel!!!

Rachel's service was amazing! I couldn't have been happier with the overall result. Besides achieving a timeless and flawless look for my wedding day, Rachel was professional and went above and beyond. She was able to accommodate a few of my bridesmaids, who at the last minute after seeing my makeup, decided they wanted theirs done too. She is very talented!

I had NO clue who to use for my make-up and then I received an email from David's Bridal that included an advertisement for Rachel Bush. I checked out her website and sent her an email. She was very friendly from the beginning and I felt really comfortable with what she was offering. I am not one to usually wear full make-up, so I was somewhat concerned with how the airbrush would look and how I would have my makeup done. Rachel did a fantastic job! The make-up felt light and didn't appear over done or tacky. It was defined, but very natural. She also did the MOB and MOH make-up for my wedding and we were all getting compliments throughout the entire night. Rachel was really affordable, she even offers a generous military discount. I was very happy with her service and the overall experience. I highly recommend her services for those looking for a light, but elegant make-up look.

Rachael was absolutely wonderful! She was very professional, was easy to reach by email and was always quick to respond! She was super friendly and made sure I liked how I looked before continuing. She definitely is an expert at what she does! The makeup she uses is the best quality and the airbrush made me look flawless. For both my trial and my wedding the makeup lasted the whole night! I would recommend having your trial scheduled on a special occasion so that you can wear it out, you will definitely want to show it off! I had my trial on my engagement picture session and I received many compliments on my makeup from my friends and family. I am really glad I went with her for my wedding! Thank you so much Rachael!

I am so happy I found Rachel! Our consultation was perfect, but afterwards I told Rachel that I wanted her to tweak my makeup a little for the wedding day; she knew exactly what I envisioned! Rachel exceeded my expectations and did an outstanding job on not only my makeup (which was flawless), but on my mom and matron of honor (who looked fantastic)!! Rachel is an absolute doll and I highly recommend her to all brides! Ladies, if you can think it... Rachel can do it!

From the moment I met Rachel & had my trial, I knew I had made the best decision. I showed her a few pictures and gave a brief explanation of what I was looking for and she nailed it on the first try. AMAZING! I looked like myself but a better version! Then came our wedding day, she was about 10 or 15 minutes early which is always appreciated; She had 4 girls to do in a 2 hour period (1 Airbrush & 3 traditional) and managed to make everyone absolute perfection. All of my bridesmaids are naturally beautiful and Rachel simply enhanced their beauty. Each one of us looked & felt beautiful. Our eye color popped with the color palette she used and we didn't look or feel too made up. If you want to be flawless and feel beautiful on your wedding day (or for any other event), then Rachel is your girl. THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING RACHEL!

Rachel did an excellent job on my wedding makeup. I do not usually wear much makeup, so i knew I wanted to feel comfortable but also look as great in person and in my photos as possible. We definitely achieved the look I wanted. The airbrush makeup held up beautifully all day. Rachel was very easy to work with, professional, friendly and EARLY on the day-of. ;-)

Rachel is absolutely amazing! From the very beginning at my makeup trial, she made me feel comfortable and confidant. She expertly translated the look I wanted into a beautiful finished look. She also did the makeup for all of my bridesmaids, and each look was different for each girl's unique complexion. With her expertise, I felt so beautiful on my big day!

I got engaged and married in less than 1 week! (Yes, it is possible!) I got married on a Saturday at 6:45 A.M. I didn't find my makeup person, Rachel, until Wednesday. Since the wedding was so soon, we didn't have time to do a trial run so needless to say, i was worried. Rachel did an amazing job! She did my makeup and 3 other family members and everyone looked fabulous! I opted for a more natural look while a few of the others wanted a little more dramatic. Everyone's makeup turned out wonderful and I would definitely recommend her!!! Thanks again Rachel!

Rachel is the Best! posted 10/22/2011
Rachel gave me exactly the look I wanted for my wedding. I had a trial with several others and felt "made up". This was not the case with Rachel. She listened to what I wanted and delivered. She is very professional and worked well with my hairstylist & photographer. My makeup stayed on all night and looked just as fresh at the end of the night as when I started. I will use her for any special occasions.

Amazing and totally worth the money! Rachel is truly an artist. The airbrush make-up she applied to myself and bridal party was flawless and beautiful and amazingly enough, stayed on all day and evening for our outdoor wedding despite temperatures upwards of 100 degrees. Thanks so much Rachel!

The best make up artist in the valley. She was professional, flexile, great personality,fun... well all the above. She asked all the right questions, worked so quickly with my bridal party of 9. My bridal party and I got SO many compliments on the makeup. Not only did she do my make up she also recommended the best hairstylist and they were a wonderful team they made me look and feel like a movie star.

Rachel did my makeup and my whole wedding parties makeup (that is around 10 girls!) and did the most wonderful job. She is creative, punctual and will work with you to find your best look. I had a picture of makeup that I wanted and Rachel was able to make me look so much like the picture that it really impressed me. We had two trials and my wedding day and she was early to every appointment and ready to go. Her personality is great, fun and I felt very pampered when working with her. My friend who is getting married in November decided to use Rachel too. You really can't go wrong with Rachel and she is guaranteed to make you look your best on your wedding day. I vouch for her services 100%!

Rachel exceed ALL my expectations!!! She was professional and fun and made me feel right at home. She asked all the right questions, worked around my allergies to certain makeup and "got" exactly the look I was going for. I got SO many compliments on the makeup and all my bridal party was jealous they didn't do the airbrush makeup, too! I'd use Rachel again in a heartbeat and would recommend her to anyone looking for the perfect look for their special day! She's nothing short of fantastic!!!

Rachel exceeded my expectations for my wedding make up. She was flexible in scheduling a trial so that I was able to have fabulous make up for another special occasion prior to the big day. Therefore, I got to feel movie star beautiful twice thanks to Rachel! So many people asked me, "WHO did your make up?" And I am eager to recommend her to anyone else needing beautiful professionally done make up. Rachel was very professional and fun, and I can't thank her enough for helping me look my absolute best for my wedding day.

Rachel was extremely professional and she did a beautiful job with my wedding makeup. I got a ton of compliments about how beautiful I looked and how well done (and natural looking) my makeup was. Because Rachel uses airbrushing, I barely even felt as if I was wearing anything and it stayed put throughout the evening. Rachel even graciously accommodated my last-minute venue change. I would absolutely use her again for a major event.

I was lucky enough to find Rachel via the internet, and from the moment I contacted her with my first inquiry, she was nothing but professional, flexible, kind, and clearly experienced! She ended up doing makeup for me (the bride) and 6 members of the wedding party - all in less than 4 hours! Initially, only 4 members of the party had planned to get makeup, but seeing how great the other girls looks, 2 more asked for makeup the day of and Rachel gladly fit them in! Additionally, at the trial I told her I wanted my makeup one way, which she did a beautiful job of, but a couple days before the wedding I completely changed my mind and emailed her and she could not have been more accommodating and understanding. My makeup was finished at about 1:45pm on Saturday, and it still looked FLAWLESS after 24 hours of serious amounts of tears, sweating, dancing, pictures in the sun, sleeping, and then getting up and going to a brunch. (Maybe a little gross but heck, it looked perfect why take it off yet!) I probably spoke to about 10 different makeup artists in the Valley and Rachel was by far the most professional, talented, welcoming, and still surprisingly affordable! option. I would highly, highly recommend her to anyone looking for makeup services.

Planning a wedding is stressful, needless to say. Finding the right make-up artist for the ONE day you want to look your absolute BEST doesn't make it any easier, especially when you are overhwelmed with the countless options and price ranges. I took a chance, and called Rachel Bush. I am so glad that I did!!! She was not only affordable, friendly, and responsible...she also did an incredible job!!! I felt and looked beautiful! I received SO many compliments! I absolutely recommend Rachel!

Rachel did exactly what I wanted. The makeup was so beautiful and perfect! It stayed on all night too! We planned it sort of last minute and she was very flexible which I appreciate. Would definitely recommend her!

Rachel was very flexible with time and did a great job on my makeup for the wedding!
Thanks Rachel!

I've had the pleasure of running into Rachel a few times while out doing Wedding Videography. One of the things I noticed was how the brides she worked on looked great all the way to the end of the night. And unlike at some other weddings I've been to, I did not hear any of them complain that their skin felt dry or uncomfortable. I highly recommend her.
