Beautiful bridal makeup and hair

I have nothing but the kindest words for Jocelyn! I asked for a more natural bridal look and she definitely delivered 😍 My mom and bridal party also loved their looks and the makeup lasted all day (even through the rain!) Jocelyn makes you feel so beautiful and comfortable and compliments your natural features! 10/10 would recommend to any bride or anyone looking for a talented makeup artist! Jocelyn also did my bridal hair which turned out gorgeous.

Exceeded all expectations.

Jocelyn was beyond a pleasure to work with. Right from the beginning she made everything easy. She was super responsive, helpful, professional, very knowledgeable, and incredibly talented and skilled in the artistry of makeup. My makeup turned out beautiful, both for the trail and on the big day. Jocelyn is a super kind and sweet person. I loved having her as a part of my tram, and I was super grateful for all she did to make it extra special. Her thoughtfulness, and the detail in the experience she provided was beyond what I could have hoped for. By far one of my favourite vendors on my wedding day.

Stunning + Thoughtful

Jocelyn was absolutely amazing! I've never felt more beautiful than on my wedding day!! My hair and make-up were STUNNING. Throughout the process, she was proactive with her communication and reached out with messages of encouragement and positivity leading up to the day. She took care of EVERYTHING. Arranged a team of hair and make-up artists to glam my bridal party and family (10 people), put together a schedule for the day, provided tips to share with my girls, and even gave me the most thoughtful touch up kit including a paper straw to keep my lipstick intact. Jocelyn asked for inspo pics before the trial and was open to trying a variety of lip colours (I was most concerned about my lips!). She gave me advice on hair, facials, lip care, and skin care to help me look my best for the wedding day. On the wedding day, she arrived early to set up and was incredibly patient with me as I was pulled in different directions and had to get up a couple of times to greet someone or respond to a question. Jocelyn and her team kept on time to schedule and were flexible to accommodate last minute changes. The night before the wedding, my grandmother fell and bruised her face pretty significantly. Originally, my grandma didn't want make-up and changed her mind on the day. She didn't want the bruising in family photos. Jocelyn was SO sweet and jumped right in to touch her up!! This gesture was appreciated beyond words by my grandma and mom. Everyone was THRILLED with their hair and make-up! My mother-in-law changed her profile pictures to her at the wedding, and she almost never wears make-up. I cannot thank Jocelyn enough. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!

Incredible Experience!

Jocelyn and her team are amazing!! Jocelyn did the makeup for my wedding and she was incredible, from meeting us over zoom to our bridal trial for the bridal shower, all the way to our wedding. Because I had so many ladies to be made-up, Jocelyn brought a team of makeup artists to our venue on the day of the wedding, and every one of them did an incredible job. Jocelyn did my makeup, my mom’s, and my mother in law’s, and we couldn’t be happier. I will gladly recommend Jocelyn to anyone for any event, especially the most magical day of your life!

The best makeup artist!

Jocelyn is truly the best makeup artist! From the day I booked her for my wedding she was so helpful with everything. She even went above and beyond and created a getting ready timeline for the day-of the wedding to keep us on schedule. Myself and my bridesmaids absolutely LOVED our makeup for the big day!! I highly recommend Jocelyn for any occasion :) thank you Jocelyn for everything! You truly are amazing!

Absolutely Amazing!

Jocelyn was one of the vendors I was most excited about. I loved her work from everything I saw online and the end result ended up being better than I could have imagined! She was so professional and just a joy to work with. Through every step of the way she would make sure I was happy with what she was doing and would be super open to feedback. Will definitely be reaching out to her for other events in future!

5 stars - highly recommend

Jocelyn was a pleasure to work with! She made me feel absolutely beautiful on my special day. Although it was my wedding day, I still wanted to feel and look like like myself. She used techniques to enhance my natural beauty and made me feel super comfortable throughout the entire process, often checking in and asking for acceptance before moving forward with anything too bold. She even gave me a little touch up kit so that I could freshen up throughout the day. She worked great with my hair stylist too. Couldn’t have been happier with the end result. Thank you Jocelyn!

Professional and Excellent make up artist

A true professional make up artist who listens to what the customer wants. I am a very picky person in terms of what type of make up and how much of make up to put on and she did exactly what I expected. I loved my experience and will hire her again in a heartbeat.

Jocelyn was everything I could've asked for in a makeup artist on my wedding.

I was specifically looking for a person with makeup experience in women of colour. She did a great job at matching my skin tone and my bridal party and family members. Her and her assistant were able to do such beautiful work on a variety of skin complexions. She took her time during the trial to find the perfect lip shade that I was happy with which I greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend her for your wedding or event makeup.
