All Dolled Up by Charisse

I hired Charisse to do makeup for me, the bridal party (5), my mom and my grandmother. She brought an assistant, Ica, because of the number of people so we wouldn't have to get ready as early. Researching and selecting the right makeup artist was incredibly important for me because I had used others who did not listen to my own personal style, or had seen people whose makeup did not wear well in real life. I wanted to look fresh, glory, and glam but natural in photos and in real life. I also had a very diverse bridal party and wanted someone that I felt confident would be comfortable with skin tones and types of all kinds - in the past, I had struggled with this as some makeup artists would use the wrong undertone or shade because they were not used to this.

When I came across Charisse, I knew she was the right one. I instantly love talking to her and her fun, sweet personality. She responded quickly, answered all my questions, and addressed any concerns. Her prices are reasonable, and her and Ica did a phenomenal job on my big day.

I did a bridal trial in advance and she provided skincare recommendations that made the makeup wear so much better on the real wedding day. The day of my wedding was insanely hot and humid (far worse than normal), but everyone's makeup still held up very well. She offers touch-up kits for purchase which included q-tips, eyelash spooly, blotting paper, lipstick or gloss, and more. Knowing how humid it was going to be, I purchased additional blotting paper in advance and put it in my emergency kit as well.

Her and Ica arrived on time and did everyone's makeup beautifully, while taking into account their individual preferences. She is flexible, and experienced. My mother and grandmother also looked stunning, and even wore false lashes. At the very last minute, my mom asked them to do my aunt's makeup as well which was entirely unplanned. I was worried about time and they were conscious of this and committed to prioritizing the bridal party and taking the time to do a good job, while still adding her on at the end.

All in all, I could not recommend anyone better to do your makeup for a special occasion, wedding, or just for fun. Definitely choose Charisse's team!!

Charisse is a very friendly and bubbly person. A trait you wouldn't think you need for your a makeup artist. She made everyone including me very comfortable. She is very efficient and always on time. Very easy to talk to and she doesn't mind answering questions or concerns that you have during the process. She was very reliable about scheduling all my girls on the day of the wedding. She even managed to change my schedule even though it was last minute. I didn't have any stress about the hair and makeup the day of my wedding. She also made sure her assistants were on time and on the loop with the changes. I had so many compliments with my makeup on my wedding day. Thank you Charisse and your magic hands

Charisse and I are friends from years ago when we worked together. and when she decided to do make up full time I knew years ago that she would be the one I ask to be my make up artist for my wedding.
Charisse was able to give me the EXACT look I had envisioned for myself (1920's vintage), and she went above and beyond to the point where I cried when I got to see the finished product.
All my bridesmaids and both my mom and my husbands mom were thrilled with the way their make up turned out. They all looked absolutely stunning.
She listened to exactly what we wanted, provided us with some spare lipstick to tough up with before the ceremony. She even helped me dry my eyes as I was tearing up WHILE she applied my make up. The airbrushing looked flawless and light.
If I ever need my make up done again, Charisse is the one I am calling.
Thank you so soo much Charisse, from the bottom of my heart. You made me look exactly how I wanted to look on my wedding day - and it truly means a lot that you got to be a part of that.

Charisse did my make-up for my brother’s wedding and my own wedding. She’s highly recommended by a few of my friends who got married before me, and of course I highly recommend her work after experiencing it first hand. I wanted a simple, natural look on my wedding day and that’s exactly what Charisse did. Her team also did an amazing job with my large bridal party’s make up! 9 girls in total. Thanks, Charisse!

I had charisse do my makeup for my wedding and couldn’t be happier with how it came out! The airbrush makeup looked absolutely flawless and lasted the entire day! Aside from my bridesmaids, she also did my mother and mother in law’s makeup. Prior to this they have never had their makeup done professionally, and although they were hesitant Charisse made them feel comfortable during the whole process and in the end they loved how they’re makeup looked! I will 10000% be being reaching out to Charisse again for makeup services I may need in the future! Thanks again Charisse for my beautiful glam

Being a bridesmaid 8x I've had my makeup done by several makeup and hair artists. Charisse definitely set the bar apart from all my past experiences and I loved having her as a vendor.

Used Charisse and her team 3 times this year for various events and always looked amazing.

I’ve used her for my engagement photos, as a bridesmaid for a family wedding and my own wedding as a bride.

She’s well organized, is covid certified and was a pleasure to work with. Myself and other bridesmaids got so many compliments on our hair and makeup. Definitely would recommend her services for any events. Thank you Charisse and Gretchen!

Ate Charisse truly love what she does!!! She will take her time to make sure that you look absolutely beautiful on any occasion. She did my engagement And wedding make up. Her work made me look confidently beautiful ???? and i wish i can get married again so she can beautify me All over again. I highly recommend ate charisse!!! Thank you for all your hard work and making it a fun experience for me. Love you and your work!!!!

My sister in-law recommended Charisse to me for my wedding day. After my trial with her, I knew she was THE ONE!

She listened to my ideas and knew the look I was going for. I get super nervous around makeup and Charisse just made me feel so at ease with everything. It's so important to trust your MUA, and I really got that with her! She also recommended my Hair Stylist that day and the two of them together made an incredible duo! My bridal party looked so amazing!

From start to finish, Charisse was such a pleasure to work with! We all loved her and her team, and my girls and my mom had nothing but great things to say! I truly recommend her to anyone looking for a MUA (you won't regret it!!!)

Thank you so much for helping me look and feel my best on my wedding day, Charisse! It was so great to have you be a part of our special day! I'll never forget you!

So grateful to have met Charisse as she is amazing at what she does. Charisse did my makeup as well as my bridal party on my wedding day and she made us feel beautiful inside & out. Love her professionalism and super fun to be with! I would highly recommend her services be it makeup or hairstyling. You will surely be in good hands. Thank you for everything Charisse xo

Charisse was so pleasant to work with and swooped in to make the big day as smooth as possible. She listens to the style you want and dabs in a little style of hers. A bright, easy morning on your wedding day is truly important amongst all the other things happening around you. If you’re looking to have a great makeup artist to ease you in, and sets a cheerful mood for you and your wedding party - not only through her work but through the positive personality she exhibits, you’ve found the right girl - she’s got your back.
