I am a professional makeup artist and skincare consultant with over 11 years' industry experience with such lines as Estee Lauder, Lancome, Laura Mercier, True and Trish McEvoy as well as some dabbling in high-end fashion. Aside from the obvious makeup for weddings, proms, anniversaries, quinceaneras and birthday parties, I also provide personal shopping and image consulting.
When choosing a makeup artist, it's always a great idea to set up a trial with several artists for your big event to make sure that you are getting exactly the look you want as well as making sure that the artist is a good fit for your personality and style.

Having your makeup done for a special event doesn't get any better, friendly or more fun than Chez Murphy. Enough said. But I'll say more! :)
Chez did my makeup for my wedding day. For a bit of context: I am not into makeup. I wear very little and don't fuss in front of the mirror, ever. I was dreading having to deal with wedding makeup and didn't want to look like anyone other than my natural self. At the same time I knew having a bit of extra color would add a nice touch to our celebrations.
Enter Chez: she worked her magic, and I could not have been happier! I got a natural

Chez did did my fiancée's makeup for the day she (my fiancée, of course) became my wife. As a guy, I clearly don't know much about makeup, but I do know about its effects, and I can report that Chez did beautiful work. I would recommend her in an instant.
Not that my wife needed a boost or anything -- you get the idea. Gosh, it's hard to write Yelp reviews sometimes!

Chez did FANTASTIC makeup for my wedding! I recommend her wholeheartedly-- but let me say first that another reason I recommend her is she is extremely responsive and communicative. I needed bridal makeup on short notice, and I felt completely at ease because she is a great communicator. To me, this is a must for any vendor to receive a five star rating.
I had decided I wanted a little bit of an old-hollywood look with very red lips. I wavered about going with more of the standard for "bridal" makeup but wanted a bold statement that worked with my dress. Chez offered great advice and

Like the post below, I am not much of a makeup person. For my wedding, I decided to go with a professional. After many Internet searches and deadened phone calls, I came in contact with Chez. From the beginning, I could tell she was very personable and professional. We had two makeup trials prior to the wedding, which helped me figure out the makeup style I desired for the big day.
On the day of the wedding, she traveled to the location I was getting ready at and did a beautiful job. She was also able to do the makeup of two of my bridesmaids (who also loved the results). Her pricing is

Chez was a joy to work with leading up to, and on my wedding day. From our initial email contact, she was professional, courteous, funny, and full of very helpful questions and tips to prepare me for the big day. She knows her stuff, and is so helpful in sharing info. on products and services specific to your skin type. She came to my house before the wedding, was right on time, and super fun to work with. I strongly recommend her services for any type of event!! She's wonderful!!

I'm not much of a makeup person, and neither is my mom, so I decided early on that it would be worth it to have someone do my makeup and my mom's for my wedding in June. I found Chez through Project Wedding, and I really liked that the makeup in her pictures showed people looking good, but not overly made-up. That is the perfect description of what she did for my wedding, and I couldn't have been happier.
Chez was really easy to work with and to talk to -- I felt like I was talking to a friend more than a hired consultant. She made me feel really comfortable with makeup, and even
