Amber and Sarah, thank you for making my special day even more outstanding!

To put it simply, I feel anxious when others do my makeup, except for when Smudge does it. Smudge always makes me feel incredibly gorgeous! ❤️

My wedding makeup was flawlessly done by Amber!! Since I'm not accustomed to wearing cosmetics, I desired a subtle appearance (as I had no clue about it), and she precisely created the exact look that I had envisioned for my significant day. She ensured that I felt confident and stunning, and offered advice without being forceful. Her nature is fantastic, and it's very calming on such an important day! I would undoubtedly suggest Amber's services for any exceptional event.

Amber provided exceptional service and demonstrated immense professionalism. The talented Smudge artist, efficiently styled my hair and did my makeup brilliantly! I discovered Smudge through CrackerJack and they made themselves available for my trial in NJ, as well as traveling to VT for my big day. My bridal party and I were thoroughly impressed by their hair and makeup services. Irrespective of skin type, Smudge delivered gorgeous airbrushed and eyelash-enhanced makeup that left us feeling flawless. Their skills in executing various hairstyles from updos to blowouts were unmatched. Moreover, the makeup was so good that our photographer complimented us, saying how it made us all look like better versions of ourselves. Smudge artist brought my vision to life and turned me into a perfect bride. Their open communication and responsiveness were exceptional, making me feel confident that they were always reachable. Smudge was highly organized, bringing their own makeup lighting, chair, and tools, further conveying their professionalism. Overall, I give them a 10/10 rating and would highly recommend them to anyone. They played a significant role in making my wedding day perfect, and I couldn't imagine it without them.
