If you are Asian, please double check and make sure the makeup artist knows how to do Asian makeup if you want to look natural yet beautiful for your wedding. Do a trial session first if you can. Although everyone is very nice and professional, I was disappointed with the hair and makeup done by Melissa. However, I have read stellar reviews from other Asian Yelpers about getting a good makeup experience so it really depends on who you get as the makeup artist.
My appointment was for an in-room wedding makeup and hair session at the Bellagio. I was told that the makeup artist would arrive 15 min prior to the appointment time which should have been 12:45, but Melissa came just a couple minutes past 1pm. No biggie, but I felt it was quite rushed for her to do both makeup and hair by 3pm.
I told her of my previous poor experience of getting makeup done that made me have dark black eyeliner and dark eyebrows that made me look old, and she assured me she is much better. So I was quite shocked and disappointed when I look 10 years older when she was done. The eyeliner was also uneven when I checked after she left. There were gaps in between the fake individual eyelashes that she had put on.
For the hair, I told her to leave strands of hair to frame my face to make it less round, and she made a big curl with my side bangs on the left side, which got into my eye and face in most of the wedding shots in a big clump. Then on the right side she pulled my hair back which made my face look bigger.
I really wish to have just done my own makeup. After the wedding I asked my friends, and they commented that the makeup made me look older and more Asian with the dark eyeliner. Even my mom told me I look better when I do my own makeup and hair. It was quite clear that the makeup was too heavy in close up photos. It looked very unnatural. I had also thought there would be airbrush foundation.
Overall, I was IMPRESSED with the customer service and friendliness of the staff. Nevertheless, after looking through the professional photos from the wedding, I was quite disappointed with the makeup and hair. I want to emphasize again that you should try to meet with the makeup artist before your big day so you can be sure it's the kind of makeup you want, especially if you have Asian features because I was unable to get the desired makeup and hair result for my wedding. This makeup company still is very reputable and professional.
