I am so grateful to Barbara and her team at Sugar Cute for all her wonderful work she has done on my makeup and hair and the whole bridal party. Leading up to the big day Barbara sent me beauty tips and reminders. She also was easy to contact in regards to scheduling and to answer any of my questions. On my wedding day Sugar Cute team showed up at 5:30am to complete all of our looks. We all looked and felt fantastic. Thank you again for the beautiful job!
Barbara is the best! She made me and all the girls in my bridal party look and feel like celebrities! She and her team are very talented. I also paid her to stay for touch ups after the ceremony. Thank you for making my day as special as it was.
Sugar Cute did an incredible job with the hair and makeup for my wedding! The team consisted of a makeup artist and a hair stylist and worked on me and 4 bridesmaids. They traveled to my hotel and were both efficient and lovely! The hair and makeup lasted for the entire day and night, even after the after party at midnight, we all still looked great. I wouldn't go with anyone else!
Barbara is absolutely amazing.
Not only was her work impeccable, but she has the sweetest personality. PLUS her price was better than any other artist I contacted in the Long Island area.
She came to my house for the trial and used this great sugar/honey concoction to exfoliate my skin before applying the makeup. She also gave me some diet tips and awesome lipstick recommendations.
I got so many complements on my makeup on my wedding day and felt like a million bucks!
I recently hired Sugar Cute to handle the makeup for myself and my friends for a bachelorette party in Atlantic City. Sugar Cute was very reliable and knew exactly what makeup look I wanted. They were very efficient and the makeup looked amazing! Photographs very well! I would not hesitate to book Sugar Cute again for an event :)
My parents celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary and me and my sister decided we should get Mom a makeover. Barbara came out to the house to do a free trial and she was so patient, she even managed to convince my mother to try false eyelashes!! The way she made Mom feel so comfortable and beautiful was amazing. On the day of the party Dad said Mom looked exactly the same as when they got married. It was so sweet. When I get married I am definitely going to have Barbara do my makeup.
Half way through my complementary trial I knew I was booking Sugar Cute for my wedding. My bridesmaids, mother and I all looked sensational. The makeup artist was sweet and easy to talk to, and made me feel totally comfortable. She also listed to all my preferences and the quality of the makeup was high end. The makeup stayed on all day and night! I will no doubt use Sugar Cute for special occasions going forward.
My friend recommended Sugar Cute to me after having her make up done with them. After contacting several make up artists I booked a trial with Sugar Cute because they were by far the least expensive. Since my first contact with Sugar Cute, they were very responsive and knowledgable. Basia did my trial at my home and I loved my make up. On the big day of my wedding she showed up early and was so positive and confident that it made me feel relaxed and pampered. She also did make up on my mother and my bridesmaids and all of us were beautiful and really happy with her perfectionism and professionalism. I can highly recommend Sugar Cute. I can't thank Basia enough for the wonderful job she did with my make up for my wedding. She made me fell gorgeous!
As the grand-daughter of a famous artist, and the daughter of an Advertising Artist for Abraham & Strauss (former dept. store) and being a former N.Y.C. Teacher of Fine Arts ( as well as NYCATA Art Teacher of the Year), I know what excellence is! My make- up by Sugar Cute looked excellent! I felt like a movie star upon completion!
I hired Sugar Cute to do makeup for myself and the entire bridal party. Everyone had a natural but glamorous look and the makeup lasted the whole day. It also looked awesome in the photos. Barbara traveled to me on the day of the event - it made it so easy! I would definitely recommend for wedding makeup - great quality and price.
Barbara did a great job! She did my makeup and my daughters for a wedding we attended. I felt beautiful and the makeup lasted all the whole party.
Barbara was very professional and very easy to work with. The makeup she did for myself and my wedding party looked great. She took care of my makeup for the wedding and bridal photos. I absolutely loved the way I looked!
Barbara from Sugar Cute did such a beautiful job on my makeup for my wedding!! She also did makeup for the bridal party, 3 bridesmaids, and two moms. She put on false eyelashes for everyone and worked so hard finishing everyone's makeup ahead of schedule. She was easy to work with, very communicative, and I would highly recommend her and Sugar Cute to anyone looking for a great makeup artist! She made me feel more beautiful than I have ever felt on my wedding day. Thank you!!! I would pick her in a heartbeat again for makeup, and will if I ever need makeup.
