Makeup in Portland

“Wow! Heather is TOP NOTCH! I had some hair trauma from my past salon and she talked me through how we could get to where I wanted to be. She NAILED my blended color and topped it off with a nice easy maintenance cut. To make all things even better she was super easy to talk to and made me very comfortable. The icing on the cake was the super reasonable price. VERY glad this was the first salon and stylist I tried after moving here! Thanks Heather!!“

“Visited Julie for a color analysis; something I’ve wanted to do for ages. I used an AI analysis app and it said I was a “winter,” which didn’t seem quite right.Julie’s home is very inviting. She conducted the analysis in her office space. She started with skin care and makeup colors. She did draping to show me the impact of colors against my face. I am an “autumn.”We went over my “power colors” (deep tones) and she gave me a book of color swatches, which I now live by! I got rid of a ton of black clothing I had, which was not the color for me. So thankful to have some guidance on my color palette.Since dressing in my colors, I receive compliments non-stop and I feel super confident. While I love navy and eggshell white, they make me look drab and had to go.Julie was kind, funny, real, and just lovely to interact with. If you want a true professional in-person color analysis, she is the real deal! Highly recommend this service. A great gift for anyone, especially those who are interested in style and fashion.“

“I couldn’t have chosen a better person to do my hair and makeup for my 10/14/23 wedding! Right from the trial, Kong was very receptive to what I liked and didn’t like and had so many suggestions for what she thought would compliment my hair and face best. Her main focus was making sure I was happy with how I looked and I couldn’t have been any happier with how the whole morning went. All of my bridesmaids and mother of groom/bride kept telling me how amazing their experience was with Kong as well. She made sure everybody felt comfortable while in her chair. I 100% recommend Kong for any and all bridal needs!“

“I am a number 1 fan of Beauty Mark! I am beyond grateful that I found Jenn and the team while vacationing in the Portland Maine area a number of years ago. I experienced the best facial of my life and began a skincare routine that is a game changer ! Despite living a few states away I am in frequent contact with Jenn and the others. I often have quite the dialog going with Maureen and Jenn even consults with me via FaceTime! Who does that???? They are beyond amazing. Run don’t walk to experience this treasure!!! Thank you for taking such good care of me!!! Xo“

“Brenda at Adore Rouge is incredible! She did the makeup for my wedding and it was everything I had hoped for. I wanted an “enhanced” look: enough makeup to translate well in photographs but not so much makeup that it looks unnatural in person. Brenda struck the perfect balance. I have never had makeup I liked as much as the makeup I had on my wedding day. Brenda really brought out all of my best features–and did so in a way that worked perfectly for the venue and for the season. She also did my friends’ makeup, and they all looked incredible. One of my friends even said it was better than the makeup she had for her own wedding!What really amazed me, though, was how well the makeup held up. My wedding was outside and it was over 90 degrees that day. It was so hot for the first few hours, and I kept checking my makeup assuming that it had run or there were creases in my eyelids or I looked oily or something–but each time I checked it, it looked perfect. At 2:00 AM–after lots of sweating and dancing and partying, I went into the bathroom to take off my makeup and, before I did, ran back out and said to my husband “LOOK AT MY FACE MY MAKEUP LOOKS PERFECT!” He was maybe less excited than I was but admittedly impressed. What kind of magic is that! I couldn’t believe it.Brenda is also a lovely person and a calming presence–which is more important that I realized for the day of your wedding! I cannot recommend her enough!Service: Makeup services“

“I cannot stress how incredible my experience here was! Jessica has some serious magic when it comes to hair! The atmosphere was so inviting and comfortable, and all the staff was very kind! She fixed my hair better than I could have ever imagined, and explained everything to me wonderfully. If you want your hair to look award worthy GO HERE!!!!Service: Balayage“

“Katie & Stacy are AMAZING! I hired Ollo for my wedding H&M and wow- everything was perfect! They can do any style/look you want, are on time and extremely professional. All of my ladies were so happy! Hiring them for my wedding I thought it best to go to the salon for my regular hair cuts as well and I am SO HAPPY I did. Katie is great and has become a quick friend. I can’t recommend this place enough!“
