    Doreen was amazing! She is so talented, but also very flexible and willing to work with your crazy 'day of schedule'. I called her the night before (from my rehearsal dinner) to make a few last minute changes. She arrived early and was ready to go even before we were done with our hair. She is a super sweet lady with a beautiful passion. One of the people in my bridal party said to me, "you can tell she loves her job, she stood back and looked at your makeup when it was finished and had a huge smile on her face". I would recommend Doreen to everyone! She is very reasonably priced, sweet, talented and a pleasure to work with :)

    Friendly and professional

    I had an excellent experience. Doreen was right on time and brought donuts! She took into account everything I wanted and what what work best on me, which was great as I know nothing about makeup. I felt beautiful all day at the wedding and had a ton of complements. I’d recommend her to everyone!

    Meraki Esthetics's reply:

    It was so nice to be pampered on my wedding day. The quality of the makeup and artist is wonderful. In my wedding pictures my skin looks flawless and right out of a magazine. It made all the difference getting it done instead of me or a friend doing it. It lasted the whole night!

    Loved my wedding makeup

    Doreen did such a wonderful job and was so accommodating on such short notice. I loved the way my airbrush turned out for my wedding. I have very oily skin and even after a long day, my skin did not look super oily and the makeup still looked perfect. I normally hate wearing false lashes because they are uncomfortable, but she applied them so I didn’t even feel them! I actually forgot I had them on and that is something I never thought I’d say. Overall, great experience.

    Flexible and pleasant to work with

    Doreen did my makeup, two of my girls, and my mother in law. She is very flexible and willing to work with you. She was supposed to do my mom's makeup, but when something came up she was more than will to switch to doing the mother of the groom instead. All of our makeup looked beautiful and held up all night. Can't thank her enough.

    Great experience!

    I chose Doreen for my bridal makeup and couldn’t be happier! After my trial I booked a few other services and was so pleased with how healthy my skin was for the wedding. There was a huge difference In how evenly the makeup went on and the photographs turned out even more beautiful because of it!

    Great Experience!

    I don't have enough kind things to say about Doreen of Airbrush Images Studio. She did my bridal make-up, as well as my bridesmaids, and my mom on my wedding day. We all wanted something different and she delivered! I don't wear make-up, ever. I'm talking some lotion and Burt's Bees lip balm and that's it. However, I wanted to look my absolute best on my wedding day, and Doreen came highly recommended. I was not disappointed! During the trial, I explained that while I wanted make-up, I still wanted to look/feel like myself. She did a great job making me feel comfortable and delivering on what I was asking for. On the day of the wedding, she finished everyone's make-up ahead of schedule, and everyone looked great! I also didn't have to worry about how my "look" was holing up all day because it looked just as great hours later! My wedding was in the Pittsburgh area, and she was willing to travel to us while we got ready! I'd recommend Doreen to anyone and can't wait to have a reason to use her again in the future!

    Meraki Esthetics's reply:

    Thank you so much, Rachel, for the kind words! You made the last day of what has been a challenging year worth it all.
    It is always an honor to be chosen to be a part of such a special day doing what I love.
    I wish you a blessed, happy, healthy and prosperous new year in your life and marriage and would look forward to working with you again in the future! :)

    I could not have picked a better makeup artist for my wedding!! Doreen treated me and my girls like we were her masterpieces, making sure every detail was perfect! She was very accommodating and came to us at the venue so we didn’t have to rush around the morning of the wedding. She also had us send her face shots and make up ideas so she was prepared the day of the wedding for each individual girl so everything went smoothly! She also took her time during my makeup trial to make sure my makeup was exactly what I wanted! I was very nervous to have airbrush makeup done because I was in a wedding a year prior and hated my airbrush makeup and what it looked like in pictures, but Doreen did an amazing job!! She is very talented at what she does and my makeup looked natural and beautiful!! I would definitely recommend her to everyone I know!!

    Having Doreen do the makeup of my bridesmaids and myself was one of the best decisions I made during the entire wedding experience. The makeup lasted all night and looked flawless. She was so fun to work with! She worked extremely efficiently in order to ensure that 10 girls would have amazing makeup. I cannot thank her enough for the astounding service she provides.

    Doreen was prompt, friendly and professional. She was very easy to work with. She did a beautiful job on myself, my matron of honor and my niece. She was able to provided everyone with a personalized look that they loved! Everyone’s makeup looked gorgeous, and several people commented on how beautiful my makeup was. It lasted all night long too! It didn't look like I had caked on makeup. VERY natural and light. My face felt like my face! We were all very happy with her work.

    I love Doreen. LOVE. She did a phenomenal job, and I was so unbelievably happy with my wedding day makeup. I planned my entire wedding in a month and a half from out of state. Doreen was super flexible with my insanely short timeline and made my wedding day so stress free. I loved my trial makeup, but day of made a few minor changes and she rolled with it, and my makeup turned out amazing. She captured the classic romance / fairy tale look I was going for perfectly. She was super quick in her responses while we communicated and helpful. She even helped me find my amazing hair stylist when she found out I was struggling to find one available on such short notice! She also did a fantastic job on my mothers, maid of honor and bridesmaids makeup. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding day makeup artist. Go with Doreen, you won't regret your choice!

    Doreen is my most intelligent choice on getting a perfect make up in my wedding. Why? Her website revealed the appealing flawless make up that concealed everything in my troubles to hide my actual age during my wedding. Yes, I experience the excellent of Doreen's service for bride like me. She is also the best make up artist for older women and all ages without limitations. True, her advancement and professionalism in handling on my face and had done my wedding in success. I gained admiration in the social media on my bridal make up. Voila! Some ladies in my wedding entourage liked also my make up effect in the camera pictures. I loved Doreen's precision in applying everything in my face, eye shadows, cream airbrush method, eyelashes etc. Amazingly I am a happy bride with Doreen's make up development in me! Whatever occasion in this Ohio area from Youngstown , I would gladly recommend Doreen and her prompt personal service is very valuable. Really, I would really treasure her in my future activities which I would call her again. I will boast Doreen's website and her phone number to anyone who would need her for advanced make up and other skin treatment! Nice and remarkable experience with Doreen! Thank you Doreen!

    I am not somebody who typically wears makeup as I don't always have a knack for picking out the right colors or styles for my face and my features. I do, however, love looking nice for special events. I was a bridesmaid this past weekend where Doreen was asked to do our makeup. I must admit that I was a little nervous as I am always afraid makeup will be too heavy or I won't look like myself. Doreen did an AMAZING job enhancing my natural look and my features. She chose the right colors snd really made my lashes pop. She was very professional and very helpful leading up to the day of the wedding. I received multiple compliments all night and I am continuing to receive them on the photos I posted on social media from the wedding. I wish she could do my makeup for me every day!!
