One look in mirror, jumped back...

Monique did an amazing job on my Jessica Rabbit make up. When I first looked in the mirror, I jumped back. It didn't even look like me. She was on time, super friendly & nailed it. I won the costume contest at work. Make up was on point from 7am until 2am the next morning while dancing away.

INCREDIBLE!

We hired Monique to help with our event in Anaheim for the week. She was punctual, professional, and an overall joy to work with. I received nothing, but positive feedback from our staff/guests with their overall satisfaction with Monique. Her makeup skills were just what we were looking for. We will definitely be calling Monique again next time we are in Anaheim!

moniques makeup rocks

Monique did my makeup for a haloween costume party. She used her airbrushes and made me look like an authentic Japanese Geisha. I won first place :+) She also does high fashon. Monique has a bubbly and very friendly personality. She is very fun!!!!

Influences and inspiration

I have been fortunate in my makeup artistry career to have worked with people from all across the spectrum. I strive to be hard working and positive. Reliability and a great attitude can be a difficult trait to find in this industry, however, I have made it a point to make that a number one priority. Always make my clients happy!
