GEM Makeup Artistry & Hair

oks! And they were INCREDIBLE at my bridal hair and makeup. I showed them a photo of the style I liked and they exceeded my expectations. Like it looked even better than the first time, and I had no trial because it was a destination wedding!! I knew I made the right choice as soon as I got in contact with her on Instagram... Gigi is SO SWEET and her and Vanessa brought the best vibe to the house getting ready. We had so much fun with them. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone -- did I mention they travelled to Key Largo for me?!

professional hair and makeup. We did not have a full bridal party so I initially hesitated. I also had never liked my makeup when I myself was a bridesmaid. But GiGi did a wonderful job starting with my trial! Her and Dorothy (for hair) came to my house and did my trial. It was so chill and they both played around to get my hair and makeup exactly the way I wanted it (natural looking with a touch of mauve on cheeks and lips, glam ponytail). GiGi added a few false lashes which was the perfect subtle touch. They were flexible and receptive to little changes I wanted and made it a great experience. They flew through me, my mom, mother in law, sister, and touch ups for nana on the day of. I mean that in the most positive way. They were timely and didn’t have us having to sit around all day. It was perfect and everyone was happy. Even nana who is a beauty queen and never lets anyone help her. She was thrilled. Hair and makeup stayed perfect until I washed it off before bed in the wee hours of the morning. The hair and makeup looks great in the pictures and I still felt like myself in person too. Highly recommend.

ible and talented person. Even without a trial (due to short notice/lack of time schedule on my part), I felt so confident in her after our conversations. Gizella is talented in her ways. Not many people can pull the natural yet soft glam look, but she can! Thank you Gizella! You're amazing!

feel absolutely radiant on my wedding day! I had a NYE wedding that ended at 5am, Gigi was done with my services by 4pm and no matter how much I sweat, my makeup never budged. She is a true artist and such a vibe! She has such a calm way about her, which is what every bride needs on her wedding day when there are so many other thoughts happening! Leading up to the day, her communication was absolutely on point, I never had to worry about following up. She always responded in a timely manner and always with great advice on helping me pick the best look for my wedding. I cannot praise her enough and truly recommend booking her right away!

eached out, resulting in me booking her immediately.  She is a master of soft glam. I've been in previous weddings where I've felt makeup artists will overdo it when I ask for an elevated natural, but Gigi truly gets it.  My bridesmaids were also extremely happy with theirs. Thank you again Gigi!!!

turned out.

to find the perfect makeup fit. I knew instantly when I found GEM Makeup Artistry this was gonna be the one. Flawless application bringing out the best parts of all her clients and brides. Her talent speaks for itself. One bride truly more beautiful than the next. She was one of the most responsive vendors I had- and if you have or are planning a wedding during a world pandemic I knowww you can appreciate this even more!!! I was SO LUCKY she was available. Honestly it felt like fate- I just about cried with happiness! So then you might ask yourself- wellll do I really need a trial? Nice and loud for my brides in the back.... YES. YES. YES, you do. That was me. I was one of those brides trying to cut things I didn't think I "needed". Do not waste one second even questioning. Gizella was SO accommodating, and was able to squeeze me in so I could use my trial for my bridal shower. Amazing! I received so many comments on how beautiful my makeup was. Then came the day of my wedding... When I tell you my pictures are STUNNING, believe me b/c that is the recurring comment I received from every single guest. It was the most beautiful I ever looked or felt! And have no fear, the airbrush makeup lasted the entire night- I did not have to touch up anything even through my happy tears! I really could go on, but if I can say anything else it would be to not cut corners or skimp on your MUA. I can confidently say Gizella is whole heartedly worth it, hands down, without a doubt!

y made everything and everyone feel so amazing and beautiful. Gizella did my makeup and made me feel absolutely flawless, making everything seem so easy. Virginia did my hair, she put in all my clip-in extensions and did the hairdo I wanted, it came out absolutely stunning. Without me even having to second guess anything, this whole entire team made everything and everyone feel so stress free. I can’t thank you all enough for everything you did. You truly made my wedding day, a day I truly will never forget. THANK YOU for making us all gorgeous. They all truly worked their magic. I 1,000% would recommend you all to everyone.

nd available. They were great with my maid of honor and mom. I really enjoyed working with them.

. She was so flexible and understanding when we squeezed in a bridesmaid at the last minute. Day-of, my wedding was held outside in a tropical storm (2020, amirighht?) and her skills were so good that my makeup was pretty much the only thing that survived the wind and rain! Highly recommend for her talents and experience but also because she’s a sweet and down to earth person too!!

I would find anyone who could do my bridal makeup the way I wanted (natural yet bridal). Thankfully, Gizella squeezed me in for a trial when I'd be visiting Miami (during the holidays, no less) and I was sold! I looked like me, but better! She is quick, calm and efficient. My makeup looked BEAUTIFUL! It stayed on all night long (my makeup even looked good in pictures at the after party at 3am!). I am so lucky I found her. Every one of my bridesmaids loved their makeup as well. I was shocked that no one asked her to re-do any part of their makeup while getting ready - it was perfect on the first try. We were actually ahead of schedule because she did such a great job! THANK YOU!

patient, listened, and created the perfect look that I had dreamed of! She did mine, 6 bridesmaids, and my mom's make up all in one day and everyone was raving about her. She uses the best products and truly tailors each look to each client. I would 100% recommend her!!

ess!

time every time, and super professional and fun. The pricing is very reasonable and includes lashes and airbrushing for only $10 more (which is 100% worth it). They handled 13 women like super girls and everyone looked STUNNING! I would 100% recommend them to every bride and choose them every time.

rs of planning! I had two makeup artists either do a horrible job or cancel on me, and then I found GEM! So lucky she was free for my wedding. Loved the makeup on the trial, and loved my wedding day makeup!

ok too heavy or not like myself. After I did my trial I was so happy and confident that my makeup would look great for my wedding , which it did! I loved my makeup I looked like me but a more glammed version that still looked super natural the exact look I told her I was going for not only did it look great but my makeup lasted the entire night and didn’t feel like I was wearing a ton of product. She is also just super chill and down to earth. She arrived early, was great on time execution, took the time to listen to all my bridesmaids request who all equally loved their make up and asked for her contact info. I will 100% use Gizella again in the future and can not recommend her enough.

ella not thinking she would even be available on the day of my wedding. She was so sweet and accommodating though! She and another from her team were able to show up early to the getting-ready hotel the day of my wedding and prep me and my bridal party, squeezing me in before another one of her bookings. She arrived on time and left with plenty of time for us to take our pictures! She was fun to talk to while we prepped, and hair/makeup came out AMAZING!!! The whole night I received SO many complements and praises for the way I looked. My makeup held up perfectly the whole night, and my hair never bothered me throughout the day. Even now, three months later, I'm still receiving complements. Seriously could not have asked for someone better!!!! So glad the other person fell through!

autiful at my wedding and couldn’t ask for a better makeup artist! I would highly recommend her for your wedding day! :)

ttended to each person’s preferences and showed the utmost kindness caring to my two flower girls. I cannot recommend Gizella and her team enough!!

ed absolutely stunning! It was the perfect natural dramatic look. I would use her again and again if I could relive my wedding day everyday!

. (I was walking down the isle at 1:30 and had 11 bridesmaids)..... so yea I wanted everyone to be able to sleep in as much as possible and not put myself in a situation where we would be running late. Gizella and her team happened to be available and did an INCREDIBLE job with my bridal party. They even finished early enough to do hair and makeup for one of my guests. Definitely recommend Gizella if you're in search of a hair and makeup artist

t, I will most certainly be using them and referring my friends/family

uickly, and did a beautiful job for me as well as my bridesmaids! Everyone looked stunning and everyone loved their makeup!! She even stayed throughout our pictures for touch ups. She accepted Venmo for payment which made everything seamless and convenient. I highly recommend Gizella your wedding as well as all of the pre-activities! Thinking back on it, I would have loved for her to do my makeup for my bridal shower as well! 5 stars!

her job. Everyone’s makeup was absolutely beautiful. I chose to do the air brush and my makeup lasted from noon all the way through the night. I was also an emotional bride and the airbrush and makeup lasted. She is great at listening to exactly what you want and helping your vision come to life. I would highly recommend Gizella.

ot disappoint. She was very professional and knowledgeable. I articulated some version of what I thought I wanted my makeup to look like on my wedding day and she assisted me with figuring out the look that I truly wanted. Her knowledge and experience was really welcoming. She was always prompt and even coordinated the hair and makeup schedule on that day to ensure that everything ran smoothly. I had myself, six bridesmaids, mother of the bride, mother of the groom and my little sister. Gizella arrived at our hotel at 6 am and finished makeup for all of us with time to spare. She was able to highlight everyone’s natural beauty in a way that was elegant and flawless. I had the opportunity of working with Gizella for my bridal shower as well and I plan to work with her in the near future. Gizella is amazing and I would highly recommend her.

ids. I still get comments about how great everyone looked at the wedding. Cannot wait to have her doll me up again. Wouldn’t go to anyone else!

great support person if needed especially when things are going not as planned! Look no further to her services, she literally is a GEM. Her makeup skills are too knotch and what I love is she listens to everything you say! You want more glitter? No problem! Less on the eyes? Sure thing! Great individual and great at what she does!

GEM because she highlighted how she loves the natural look. Then, I was totally sold after the trial. Gigi has SUCH a calming presence and is so knowledgable about everything makeup. I did airbrush, and she explained everything to me during the trial so I felt totally comfortable. We made some tweaks to my eyeliner and lip color and she remembered everything. Day of, she arrived early and set up quickly. She was ready before we were which was so calming! Gigi did my makeup, two mothers, and 2 bridesmaids. She also threw lashes on some of my other bridesmaids for no charge, and she gave me a touch up kit (see the photo of my little cousin touching up my lip color - so cute!). She also accepted venmo and chase quickpay which made things so easy! I would highly recommend GEM to anyone in the South Florida area. I have never felt as beautiful as I did on my wedding day! Thank you!

r wedding day as well. I will definitely recommend her for any future events!!

outstanding. She came to the hotel where I was getting ready and was very efficient. I still have been getting compliments on the makeup when I show everyone pictures. Not only did I look and feel the most beautiful I have ever felt but the makeup will not smear!! It stayed perfect through the first kiss and all the happy tears that followed throughout the night. She is a must have for anyone who wants to look drop dead gorgeous on their special day. Thank you gizella!!

r needs she’s extremely knowledgeable on what reacts to each certain type of skin and gives you recommendations!!! I felt so beautiful on my wedding and bachelorette I could not have asked for a better make artist. You can literally show her a picture of what you want does exactly what you like and is honest! I love trust an honesty of something doesn’t look good on my face particularly she will always show you different options where you don’t look crazy lol but still get what you want!! I was so blessed!!! Thank you Gigi for making me feel like a princess on my big day!!!

to emails and is always early! I have used her for other events as well when I was a bridesmaid in a wedding and for my engagement photos! If you want to look flawless and not over done I definitely recommend!

ng.

. She was on time and on point with everything. I actually use her for every occasion I have now because, well..... you can’t get better than her! Absolutely try her out, you will not be disappointed.
