Testimonials
Words from our clients.
"I was always awful at applying make-up so I basically never wore anything but lipstick. Now I'm in my 50's and really needed expert guidance on application and products. (I tried emulating some Youtube videos but they were hopeless). I needed professional help or I'd just keep wasting more money at Sephora. When I found Maria's website I was totally blown away by her talent. I knew she could help me so I scheduled a tutorial with her. Maria took her time advising me on skin care, moisturizers, the best colors for my skin tone and showed me step by step how to apply everything (primer, brow pencil, eyeliner, foundation, blush etc..) and what techniques to use. She completely transformed me and not in an unrecognizable look at all the make-up way. She made me look like me but 10 yrs younger, totally refreshed and simply beautiful. The true test was when my husband saw me after the session and raved about how gorgeous I looked. I know he meant it because he detests makeup that's conspicuous or overdone as much as I do. In addition to being a true artist Maria is so lovely and an absolute joy to work with. If you want the absolute best contact her.".

“There aren't enough positive words to describe working with Maria. She's truly an artist, and made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself on my wedding day!
Maria takes your inspiration and is so incredibly thoughtful in using it to curate a look that perfectly suits YOU. (My mother and mother-in-law agree with the sentiment!) The cherry on top—she brought such a calm, grounding energy to a time that could have so easily descended into chaos. I couldn't recommend Maria/BBMC more!”

"Maria is simply wonderful, and I could not be happier that I had to opportunity to work with her for my wedding! She and her team did hair and makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, and the mothers of the bride/groom and created the most beautiful, natural, elevated looks for each of us. Not only is she extremely talented, but she’s absolutely lovely to be around. I cannot recommend her enough!."

“MC is a wonderful person to work with in any capacity! She goes above and beyond to achieve the look that her clients are aiming to create…I was so pleased with her work and calming personality. When she walked through the door, my nervous energy instantly shifted as I could immediately tell I was in good hands.”
