Rae Cosmetics

ithin 4 hours. And they did everything BEAUTIFULLY and made the entire process relaxing and fun! They put me immediately at ease, and they both are so incredibly talented. The makeup itself is a work of art in itself - my face looked no different at 3am the next morning than it did at 11am on wedding day, and now afterward my skin just feels refreshed and is still glowing. Thank you Rae Cosmetics!!!

erations, Lisa was extremely easy to work with as well. Lisa always answered my questions and responded very quickly. I didn’t make it easy on them, I had to add/ subtract several services, several times (Moms, flower girl, grandma) but Rae Cosmetics was consistently ready to accommodate whatever I needed. Alan did a FANTASTIC job with my makeup on my wedding day and I loved how Shelley did my hair. All of my bridesmaids were extremely happy with their results as well (which is definitely not the norm).

ur makeup. The main reason I chose Rae was because of their more natural makeup, as I have really sensitive skin. I loved all of the artists that they brought on the wedding day. They all kept us having a good time, and Allan did such an amazing job on my bridal makeup! I highly recommend them, and can't wait to use them again for my next big event!

oks like your skin, but flawless. The team at Rae is wonderful. Scheduling is easy and Allan and Shelly did a phenomenal job. I chose to do my hair and makeup trial prior to our engagement photos, it was the perfect opportunity to see how well my hair and makeup would photograph for the big day. The wedding day went perfectly. Shelly and Allan were so fun and made getting ready an absolute blast! My mother was even impressed with her makeup, which is an impossible feat. They handled four discerning women with ease. I highly recommend them!

tin for a hair and makeup trial, but I could not have been happier with my hair and makeup for the big day. Every person that we interacted with at Rae Cosmetics was professional and happy to answer any questions or concerns we had. Our hair and makeup lasted throughout the entire wedding day and night without any touch ups! Usually I have very sensitive skin so I have to be careful what type of makeup I use, but I had no issues with any of the Rae Cosmetics products. I highly recommend Rae Cosmetics to anyone looking for a makeup artist and hair stylist for a special event!

d that Rae is cruelty free. Always a plus! Thanks very much!

ost importantly everyone felt like themselves and not like they had pounds of makeup on! Thank you for making me feel comfortable with my makeup and I absolutely loved my hair, especially Friday night for the rehearsal dinner! Thank you again for making me feel beautiful and confident! I did not have to stress about my hair and makeup at all!!

ey truly cared about making sure I looked my best and all my bridesmaids! Would give them 10 stars if it were an option.

trials with other companies and was extremely unimpressed. That's when my wedding planner recommended Rae. At my trial appointment I worked with Shelly. She was absolutely fabulous and I had such a great time while she was doing my hair and makeup. I love that their makeup is sweat proof. After the trial, I put it to the test when I got home by digging a hole for a new lime tree. It was 90 outside and I still looked like a total babe after digging that hole. Day of Shelly was fantastic. She kept me cool calm and collected. We did a last minute change from wearing my hair down to wearing it up because it was going to be so hot. Everything looked fabulous and I was able to dance the night away without my makeup budging. I am going to start getting my hair done or something at Rae so I can keep working with Shelly. She is fantastic. Thanks so much Shelly and Rae.

edding and would highly recommend them.

take when I looked in the mirror. I loved my final look and they were both so kind and easy to work with!

e did both my trial and day of makeup and it turned out amazing. She is truly talented and one of the sweetest people. You can't go wrong with any of the artist! The staff was on time, efficient and everyone loved their look.

was fantastic and kind, and when I raised a concern after the trial, she bent over backwards to work things out and exhibited great professionalism. Allan and Shelly were my hair and makeup artists on my wedding day. They came to my wedding venue to get us ready and were both super easy to have around that day. Plus they did a great job! Everyone I interfaced with at the studio was great. But props to Shelly, Lisa and Allan especially. I've already recommended them to someone else planning a wedding in Austin and my wedding was only a few days ago. Thanks for everything!

their products are amaze and did not irritate my skin at all. The makeup looked so natural (not caked on), lasted all night, and actually made my skin feel smoother afterwards. Shelly gave me exactly what I wanted for my hair, and was in direct contact with me between my trial and wedding day to make sure we were on the same page with my look. So basically, Rae not only delivered, but they went above and beyond and I'd highly recommend them!

make up trial, and wedding day, and he did a fantastic job. I love that all of the artists really listened to us, and created individual looks for each girl. The bridesmaids remarked that they felt comfortable in the make up and still looked like themselves. I will definitely use Rae again when getting my make up done for special occasions!

dn't be happier.

al pro. She consulted with me every step of the way, and created exactly the look I was hoping for: very natural makeup, and a beautiful updo that incorporated fresh flowers. She was lovely and easy to work with, and made the whole experience an absolute pleasure. The whole Rae Cosmetics team was terrific from beginning to end—plus my hair and makeup stayed put through a whole day of Texas heat, humidity, and dancing. Highly recommended!

ob and gave me exactly what I wanted.

a was great to deal with: quick to respond and easily made adjustments to accommodate our group. I would highly highly recommend Rae!

r at my wedding than at their own. Highly highly recommend.

r my wedding day, there was absolutely no question who I wanted to work with. Anastasia did a beautiful job creating a natural, romantic look for both my engagement photos as well as my wedding day look. Initially I thought they only offered makeup services, but it turns out they also have amazing bridal hair stylists on staff. I was lucky enough to work with Lacey who really brought the entire look together. Anastasia & Lacey are not only gifted and passionate about what they do, but they bring so much fun to the bridal suite on wedding day. They kept the energy up and engaged with my entire bridal party. They truly are a dynamic duo and I'm so thankful that they were able to make my day so special, and beautiful!

next day after sweating the night away on the dance floor! And my groom didn't have any of my makeup on his suit! Best makeup and artists In the Hill Country! I can't thank Lacey, Kristy, and Rachel enough to for making me and my bridal party and moms feel absolutely beautiful!

aids & mother-in-law. I didn't have to give Lacey much direction and she made me look flawless. My bridesmaids & mother-in-law were absolutely stunning. I can't say enough about how much I enjoyed my experience with Rae Cosmetics and will definitely use them again for any event I have in Austin.

ncing and was virtually perfect at the end of the night. My only complaint was that they ran a bit later than expected--about 30 minutes--and my sister's hair stylist was late. However, we all got tons of compliments and it worked out well. The hairstylist was so patient too and made sure I didn't leave until I was happy with my hair. Thank you!!!

or my bridesmaids. Each of them was phenomenal and made us look and feel so beautiful. Lacey listened to exactly what I wanted and executed it even better than I could have imagined. My bridal party and I had so much fun getting ready with these ladies (Lacey is hilarious). Can't recommend them highly enough!

a disappointing hair trial with someone else, I just HAD to choose RAE for hair as well. Something just clicked with Lacey and I could not have been happier. Anastasia is who I dealt with over email and phone and she made the process extremely easy! Thank you all for making me look gorgeous on my wedding day!

e look amazing without too much makeup. That is exactly what Rochelle achieved. I could not have been more pleased with the end result. She is a true talent and a pleasure to be around. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra cash to have Rochelle herself do your hair and makeup. You won't be disappointed!!

look flawless for my Texas summer wedding - Rachel delivered perfectly! I honestly have never liked professional makeup application in the past - it always looked and felt heavy, greasy and fake, like I was a mature lady on The View. Not with Rachel. During my pre-wedding day makeup application trial run, Rachel patiently crafted the exact makeup look I was going for, and was fun, helpful, and not snooty at all! She also set me up with a great day-of hairstylist that day as well. They both arrived at the 4 Seasons early on my wedding day, and worked diligently and efficiently, helping to make my day-of getting ready experience stress-free. I highly recommend Rachel to any Austin bride who wants a magazine-ready look as well as a fresh feeling face. Rae cosmetics are also SUPERB. My makeup never once melted off during my partial-outdoors wedding at Barr Mansion in late August - amazing! It felt comfortable and light the entire evening, and looked beautiful. I bought a few items and it will now be my go-to makeup ( although I'm not a big makeup person.) GREAT experience all around - Thank you Rachel and Rae Cosmetics!

tay relaxed as I got ready for the wedding. They are both clearly experts - my hair and makeup looked great and lasted the whole day!

ssional and skilled. They made our special day perfect. We even purchased several of the products they used and sell in their line. I highly recommend them for your special occasion, we will use them again!

could've ever hoped for. Anastasia and the rest of the team were also great at communicating any scheduling changes or updates. Very professional team and fantastic hair and makeup stylists. I would highly recommend Rae Cosmetics to anyone looking to have their hair and/or makeup done.

absolutely fantastic! Lacey worked with me during the trial run to help me figure out what I wanted and then talked to me over the phone a few weeks later when I changed my mind! They made the whole getting ready experience so much fun and I absolutely loved my hair and make-up! I would very highly recommend them!

s (bride and groom) because we were all getting hair and makeup done. I can honestly say that I was completely blown away by how amazing a job Rae Cosmetics did. They come to you, so no need to travel the morning of your wedding. Also, my pictures look unbelievable. I could not have been happier on my wedding day with how I looked, and now that I have my pictures back, I know I picked the right vendor. I think my hair and makeup was Pinterest worthy! Please go do a trial with Rae cosmetics. They were recommended to me, and I am so thankful I used them!

bout. We were offered beverages and told to make ourselves at home. Chassie did my hair and makeup and the whole process was so fun, the fun music(Spice Girls, hello! Perfect girly music to get ready to for your wedding), the studio bright, clean and happy looking, and the ladies were like your best girl friends doing your hair, joking with us the entire time. My hair turned out just like the magazine picture and I was walked though the entire process as she worked to make sure it turned out perfect. I never touched up my makeup once on my wedding day..even after crying and hugging guests, it stayed on perfectly. It was even raining and misty that day. It never even felt like I had on makeup because it was so light and breathed. I will be going back and buying makeup from them for everyday use. Highly recommend them!

ted for my bridesmaids and myself. I was worried that makeups would make my eyes running and itchy, but it is not because it is mineral kind that didn't make my eyes running and itchy. AMAZING! THUMBS UP!

ight without needing any touching up which is so nice to not have to worry about!

on my bridesmaids (and well me too, haha) is FLAWLESS!! They looked absolutely beautiful. My makeup was exactly how I wanted it and the best part was working with all the women who came to to Horseshoe Bay to do our Hair & Make Up. Sarah, my hair gal, was so sweet. She was very excited to see our little flower girls that she curled their hair and applied lip gloss at no charge. And I can't finish this review without saying that Lauren was Ah-Maze-Ing!! She is the one who did everyone's make up, and I like I said: FLAWLESS! Plus she was super fun and sweet to work with :)

entire time. Lacy did exactly what I asked for, and enhanced rather than changed the way I looked. I would highly, highly recommend Rae Cosmetics and Lacy.

dding while still looking "like me". The products she used were very flattering and stayed put through a long evening of dancing.

dle hair and makeup on women of color (despite my planner's insistence). My first trial is one for history - I showed up at her studio with my MOH in May. After the trial I went to the gym (had to workout for my dress!). Then, I worked in my backyard for about an hour. It was 100 degrees that day. Later I then went on a 5K walk around the neighborhood at around 6PM that evening. I was taking another shower around 7:30 that evening when I noticed that I *still* had a face full of makeup!! It was unbelievable! That's when I knew she wouldn't have any problem with my wedding party. Rochelle did a fabulous job on my wedding day. Her makeup was so good that ALL the women bought her foundation, powder and eye shadow. I gave her a picture of the hairstyle I wanted - she made me look like a romantic bride. She worked with my extensions at the trials. By the day of the wedding we knew exactly how much hair would be needed for the final look. She works very fast - she got in, got out, and had us ready on time for the pictures. I'd highly recommend her for any wedding party.

p still looked great after all of that! It held up for the wedding, of course, as well. I have very dry skin and have a hard time wearing base, plus my cheeks turn very red. The makeup was perfect for both of these issues.

eady to go. After asking me a few questions, she got started and had my makeup done in under 45 minutes. She checked with me along the way to be sure I liked what she was doing. The makeup she used, Rae Cosmetics, felt light on my skin but still gave great coverage. She was a great choice for me.
