About Face Make Up Artistry

Page was AMAZING! My hair and makeup turned out even better than I imagined! She was not only on time, but she was early! and then she helped save the day by getting me into my wedding dress! Page was awesome to work with and I would highly recommend her to anyone!

As my previous review states I have observed Page providing services for others but recently had a good experience with her providing my own makeup and responding to a skin problem that was concerning me. I have never been someone that wears makeup but as my skin is getting older and drier I have been thinking I should probably start paying more attention to that. Then out of the blue I got Rosasea — bumps and redness on the cheeks. She was able to get me some makeup that is perfect for concealing the redness — it’s got a touch of green in it — and it adds some moisture which I really need. Plus it’s super easy to put on in the morning — and as she recommended — just on the areas that are pink so it will last a long time.

Picture perfect! Page and her team are great together and helped make my wedding day go as smoothly as possible. My hair and makeup were flawless! Since I had both an Indian and American ceremony, I had a hard time finding an artist who would be able to do a natural look while incorporating lots of color. I came across page, and once I met her, I knew she would do the perfect job. Not to mention she was so accommodating, I had two touch-​up sessions and she came back to meet me at each location! Talk about service! The pictures look absolutely amazing :) She was also great with working on the bridesmaids and was able to pull off so many different looks, from my mother to my junior bridesmaid, everyone looked beautiful! I don’t have enough words to say how great Page is!

Page does a great job with makeup — as a photographer, having someone do makeup properly is very important to the outcome of photos and I can count on her and her team to get it done right.
If you have a look you’re going for, let her know and she’ll nail it.

I have worked with with About Face Make up Artistry for our company’s fashion show. Page is absolutely one of the best make up artists I have worked with in the fashion business. She carries herself with great professionalism and style. She communicates well with her southern charm. Her translation was the exact look I had requested. Keep up the great work Page!

While I adore Page and thought she was lovely, I wasn’t thrilled with my hair as a bridesmaid at a recent wedding. I have been a bridesmaid several times and my hair is super easy to do. Pull it back, throw in some fake extensions and call it a day. My hair looked VERY promy, but Page redid it and it looked good for about an hour. Before we left for the wedding, the bride herself was fixing my hair that was falling down.
But, let me start at the beginning… Page and her make-​up partner, Cindy, arrived on time and set up. I, as well as the bride, had been in contact with Page several times and MONTHS before the wedding. When they arrived they both said they were «expecting» more people to get their make-​up done. WHY? I have no idea. So, while I was getting my hair done, Cindy complained out loud that she had other appointments that she needed to get to. We booked them for the wedding… she should have been there for when we and the people who were getting their make-​up done needed her. I also reminded them that NO ONE wanted air brush. Apparently, Cindy only does air brush make-​up. This should have been brought up in the beginning. But, it was just another thing for Cindy to complain about.
When the bride arrived, I decided that I would suck it up and get my eyes done so Cindy would stop complaining and giving everyone dirty looks because she was «sitting around.» My eyes cost $ 35. My eyes water a ton in general (which I warned Cindy about), but she kept packing on the frosted eye shadow. I asked her to stick with the matte colors, but it didn’t do much good. Then… came the lashes. And… The lash glue. It was a disaster. She got eye lash glue all over the place. When she said she was done, I went into the bathroom and saw one lash on crooked and the other eye with make-​up running down my face since my eyes were stinging. So, I took everything off and started over myself.
Then, we had to pay Cindy — who THEN complained that she only took cash and who told us we could pay with a check? I did pay her the $ 35 and gave her $ 40 in cash. Seeing that I no longer had my make-​up on since she almost blinded me with eye lash glue, I thought she would offer my a discount or to redo them, but took the $ 40. When I asked her for my change, she said she didn’t have any and had to ask Page for some. (Page did offer to redo my lashes, but at that point, we had to be getting dressed for the wedding.)
Overall, Page was great… the price was right and she was very sweet, but if you want modern and messy up-​dos, she’s probably not your girl. Cindy, isn’t anyone’s girl. She was just unpleasant the whole day.

I am a wedding coordinator in Santa Barbara. I work with a lot of event professionals. Page is a class act. She is professional, personable, kind, thoughtful and skilled at her craft. My brides love her and so do I. She’s easy to communicate with, quick to respond, and a great energy to have around on what can be a stressful day. I highly recommend her services.

I provided DJ services at a fashion show last month. Page did the makeup on the models and they looked BEAUTIFUL! I can only imagine what happens on a bride’s wedding day. Page knows her stuff and I believe anyone looking for a makeup artist on their wedding day need look no further.

Page Berse and her team get up early and stay up late to accommodate their various beautification missions they go on.
I’ve seen them do bridal parties and crack out the air brush, I’d seen them do models for ads and seen the calm competence as they find and high light positive features.
Page has experience, people skills and cross over skills to calm troubled waters at events.
I highly recommend her business About Face Make Up Artistry.
