  • The WORST wedding makeup ever

    •Verified review
    •Kiara•Mar 24

    Tori did makeup for my daughter's wedding in October 2024. She did makeup for the bride, bridesmaids, and me (mother). It was the WORST experience we all have ever had with a beauty professional. Right from the beginning we should have known as Tori was not personal or kind in any way. Her interactions were short, robot-like, and stoic. During the trial makeup she barely spoke to the bride. Didnt even ask her one questions about the wedding. The makeup itself was done sooooo poorly. There were streaks and it clearly did not even come close to matching her skin tone whatsoever. She did not even use lipstick for the trial. We thought maybe she was just having a bad day and struggled with good communication during the planning but for the wedding it was just as awful. We all looked absolutely horrible and ended up having to rub off our makeup and doing it ourselves. I asked her to please redo my makeup as I literally looked dead and she said basically no. The price she charged was outrageous for such poor quality work. In addition, the quality of the makeup was CHEAP and she had limited selection for colors. She was not personal in any way and in fact was very RUDE. Do not go to this girl. She should be ashamed of herself for how she treated us all.

    I am still in shock at how beautiful my makeup was on my wedding day! I am a person who has such anxiety getting hair and makeup done because I am always nervous that it will look too heavy or unnatural. After my trial I was so relieved that Tori did my makeup exactly how I wanted it. I literally looked like a more beautiful version of myself which is exactly what I wanted. She is extremely friendly and professional and I felt so beautiful. My professional pictures came out wonderful but my makeup also looked flawless in unedited candids that people took throughout the day. My makeup looked amazing on just regular iPhone photos, that’s how wonderful Tori is!!

    I am really torn to be writing this review for Tori. She is very talented and does great work. The make up she did for my wedding came out beautiful. And I felt very beautiful! If you’re looking to book with her, be prepared to over communicate with her and make sure you double check if she’s bringing another person with her to assist, because she won’t communicate it to you. About a month before my wedding I sent Tori my proposed timeline for getting ready with the time slots I had for each girl. Two weeks before I had one more bridesmaid who decided she wanted make up done, so I emailed Tori asking if she thought there would be enough time to add her in. She said yup no problem but never told me she’d be bringing another girl to help. Mind you - leading up to the wedding she never told me I had her scheduled too early in the day for the amount of girls I had. I knew she worked fast from my trial, but she never advised me that the time I had set to start would be too early. On my wedding day she comes with a second girl - which she never communicated with me about leading up to the wedding. The two of them worked really really fast and I wanted my make up done at a specific time. I felt rushed, my bridesmaids felt rushed, and I felt pressured to get my make up done when I wasn’t quite ready for it. One of my bridesmaids even wanted an eyelash glued on better and her second assist said “oh you’re fine” and she had to keep regluing her eyelashes through out the wedding. I emailed Tori after my wedding thanking her, telling her I felt beautiful but expressed all of these concerns. Her response was that my bridesmaid was being catty and made her feel uncomfortable because my bridesmaid could tell I was feeling rushed. Yes, she did work fast which I knew, but I would have really appreciated the guidance on my schedule for make up times. And had I known she was bringing a second person I would have had her come later rather than earlier. Like I said, she does great work and is really talented. But if you book her, work with her in great length on the timeline. Double and triple check with her if she’s bringing an assist and if she needs more or less time. I was relying on her expertise for mine and she just didn’t provide it the way my other vendors did.

    Tori is the most incredible person. She has a talent like no other. Tori is friendly, kind, caring and very passionate about her work. She makes sure the bride and bridesmaids are happy with their final product. I highly recommend Tori to do any makeup you need, she is very easy to work with and will perfect your makeup on the big day.
