Hair and make-up artist??

[melfaybik]

Hi Everyone!

 

 

I am getting married at Azul Beach Hotel on 5-28-11 at 4 p.m. and wanted to book Fernando but the latest he is available is at 12 p.m.  Do you think this is too early to get my makeup done?  I wanted to get makeup done as late as possible so its fresh but I have heard so many good things about Fernando.  Also, his partner Julius from The Makeup Pros is available but i have not heard any reviews on Julius.  Have any of you heard of him or has anyone used him? 

 

I am also looking into Norma from MAC but can't decide who is going to do the best makeup? Has anyone used Norma? If yes, what did you think of her?

 

I have to make a decision soon....Fernando at 12 p.m., Julius or Norma? 

 

Please help and send photos if you have!  THANKS!!!

Hi Melissa,

 

I was wondering who you ended up going with? Your makeup/hair looked great! I'm trying to decide right now between Fernando and MVP....

Im just wondering if anyone has heard of Krystie Ann???

I was referred to her, but wondering if any other future mexico destination brides have heard of her or booked her looking for some feedback!

thanks!

My sister is a master hair stylist and has been doing my hair my entire life, so naturally I want her to do my wedding hair. I'm not sure if she would even charge me, but if she does, her normal prices are WAY lower than what I've seen on this thread and I know for a fact I'll be 100% happy.

 

I also think my sister or another stylist guest I have coming could do a great job on makeup (even though that's not their specialty). Have any other brides brought their own make-up artist or done their own, i.e. - NOT used someone from Mexico? My only concern is that the climate/weather will be too different and the products/application techniques we're used to back here in the states won't work well down there. Any thoughts or suggestions on this??

I initially was going to bring my make-up artist from home.  However with the cost of flying her in, & paying for her stay Solely for make-up that disappeared.  Then I thought, I would just pay her to show one of my bridesmaids but then weighed in the climate,weather.  So with that side, I booked Norma Perez from MAC in Mexico.

 

It is way cheaper than the above, she's worked with my photog before and she uses the products I love along with having great reviews on all skin types.

Does she come to the hotel, or you need to go to her?

They all come to your hotel. Depending on what resort you are at some will charge a day pass for each person.
