Be Pretty

  • Serves Lyndon Center, VT

Hi there! Thanks for checking out my listing! Here is a little bit about me - I grew up in Belgrade, Serbia, where I earned a Batchelor Degree in Textile and Clothing Design. Prior to the design program and parallel with high school, I got training and education at one of the most prestigious Fine Arts Schools in the Balkan region - Šumatovačka. I always had a passion for art, beauty and skin care which organically led me into makeup artistry and esthetician license. During my ten year career in this particular industry, I focused on Custom Bridal Makeup. In addition I also work as a licensed esthetician.

Anica’s style is very natural makeup, so I had full faith that I would look like me just a better version. She is great at listening and making adjustments, and because she has so many years of experience, I never doubted for a moment that I was in good hands on my wedding day!

We had a wonderful experience with Ashlyn leading up to and during the wedding - her booking was easy, her pricing transparent, and when it came time for hair and makeup trial & day of looks, she was an absolute perfectionist - incredibly talented, thoughtful, and willing to put in the work to help you achieve your dream look. She was also super easy to communicate with, friendly, fun to be around, and she and another artist she works with, Sarah, brought a great vibe to the wedding day getting ready. Everyone in our party was extremely happy with their looks!! I don't have my professional photos back yet and didn't get many of my own photos but I am attaching one from the trial for my makeup - she did an AMAZING job - and one of my hair from the wedding day. Both were even better than I had envisioned! I'd encourage all Vermont (and beyond) brides to book with Ashlyn!!

Sensational and sincere are two of a bounty of words that describe Alayne Curtiss, the talented and innovative entrepreneur behind Make Me Fab.

From print to performance, Alayne’s work has been featured on the pages of Glamour, Women’s Day, Martha Stewart, Self, Instyle Hair, Well Wed, and Biker magazines. Her eyebrow waxing and shaping are legendary for literally changing women’s faces.

Julie's warm and friendly personality immediately put me at ease, and she made me feel like a model but also still looking like myself. And Lilly did my hair which stayed locked in place through rain and hours of dancing. The entire team at Make Me Fab contributed to making me and my bridal party feel so beautiful and confident on my special day. I couldn't recommend them more highly.

Sabrina and her team were my hair and makeup artists for my wedding, and they were an absolute dream to work with. As someone who is far from adept with hair and makeup, I was pretty much clueless with how I wanted to look on my wedding day. During my trial, Sabrina and Rachel were so patient and eager to help guide me to choose the look that felt right for me. On wedding day, Sabrina and Jenny were so timely and communicative. We had a relatively strict timeline in order to complete our wishlist of photo shots. They were so adaptable throughout the whole process and helped me manage my stress throughout the day. As for her work - Sabrina is truly an expert at her craft. Not only did she help me select a look that worked best for my features and executed it perfectly, the products she used were fantastic! After many tears, rain, and three outfit changes, hair and makeup remained flawless. Beyond their work, Sabrina and her team are some of the kindest, most genuine people I’ve had the pleasure of meeting throughout my chaotic wedding season. All it takes is one conversation with Sabrina to see her goal shine through: to make you feel your very best, and this goal was certainly achieved :).

I did a destination elopement, so I didn’t have a chance to do a trial, but Tayla understood exactly what I wanted from my Pinterest board and a phone call/email. She brought multiple options based on my likes day-of and created a beautiful look that was everything I’d hoped for. I don’t wear makeup often and I’m not great at describing the makeup styles I like, but Tayla listened and explained my choices very kindly and professionally, and the result was completely perfect. She also made sure my makeup would stay on and look natural and balanced outside even with my wintertime runny nose. Can’t recommend her enough!

Kelsey has been cutting and coloring my hair for many years and it was a no brainer to ask her to do my hair for my wedding. Kelsey was professional and accommodating through the many challenges of being a 2020 bride. I’m not the type to do a lot with my hair so it was great to have someone so skilled do such a great job with minimal direction. Kelsey took the time to understand what I wanted and she nailed it! I would highly recommend Kelsey to any bride and am looking forward to her doing it all again in 2021!

On the wedding day, her warm, calming presence immediately put me and my bridal party at ease. Her artistry was flawless — we all felt and looked stunning, and our makeup looked beautiful throughout the entire event. I can’t say enough wonderful things about Alycia.

She handled makeup and hair for me (including lashes and extensions), plus both MOB and MOG glam, and even a groom’s touch-up. She kept us perfectly on schedule, made the morning feel fun and relaxed, and delivered beautiful, polished looks for everyone.

I’m so grateful I found Liv to be part of my special day. Not only did she absolutely crush it day of, but she helped me to become so confident before the day arrived. I’m not a huge make up person, I’m actually pretty terrible at doing it myself. I generally stick to mascara and an eyebrow pencil so knowing what I “wanted” was overwhelming to say the least. Liv walked me through all my options and encouraged me to speak up when I didn’t like something (being a pathological people pleaser, this is hard!!). My skin is very dry so when I left everything looked amazing but as the day went on, I noticed caking. I let her know and she explained why what happened had happened and we talked about what I could do day to day to help, along with scheduling facials to prep my skin before the big day. It truly paid off. Not only was it a great pampering but my make up day of stayed ALL DAY AND NIGHT! Even through the happy tears and heavy dancing that took place! It was unbelievable. If you’re looking for someone who is down to earth, easy to talk to and collaborate with, a great listener, and a master of their craft, look no further. Liv is your girl!!!
