Dani is incredible at her craft. She was so easy to work with, was extremely collaborative during my bridal trial & I felt so beautiful on the day of my wedding. She came highly referred by other makeup artists in the city & now I know why. SO talented, so kind, so amazing to have with my closest friends & family as we got ready for the big day. Thank you, Dani!! You are a dream!

I am so glad I chose Dani for my wedding. I asked for a soft glam glow & she delivered. I had so many compliments on the wedding day & my makeup stayed on all day & through the night. I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup so I was a little nervous at first but she assured me that it will turn out really pretty in the pictures. It came out BEAUTIFULLY! She also wasn’t pushy. She made sure I was comfortable & would make any changes to make sure I’m happy. She’s just so kind & awesome.

I cannot recommend Dani enough! She is incredibly talented & warm. I could not be happier with my wedding day makeup. Dani & her assistant Madison did makeup for me, 9 bridesmaids & 2 moms. People could not stop complimenting all of our makeup & it lasted so well. There were many happy tears shed & the makeup did not budge! Dani showed up early & stayed exactly to schedule. After my makeup trial she took the little bits of feedback I had & made my wedding day makeup perfect! I can’t thank her enough for making all of us feel so beautiful & pampered.

Dani is genuinely one of the most talented makeup artists I have ever had. I have been in so many weddings and also had makeup done for other events, but no one can make it quite so natural, spotless & comfortable like Dani. She uses a mix of airbrush & regular makeup & it results in this super natural looking glow that lasts all day/night. I am not exaggerating when I say my husband told me that when we did the first look, the first thing he noticed was not my dress or hair but my glowing face. I felt like a true princess & cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for a reliable, friendly & professional makeup artist!

PICK DANI. Dani did an absolutely FABULOUS job with my makeup & I could not have had a better natural glam look on my wedding day! Which by the way, HELD ALL DAY & ALL NIGHT despite how hot it was. She matched my skin tone & coloring perfectly & did the same will all my friends. I felt so pretty all day & my lashes stayed through it all. Also, I was incredibly impressed with my grandma’s makeup, not too much at all & she looked so good! She also worked with my entire bridal party with all skin tones. She really can do it all. Additionally, she is incredibly CLEAN. She sprays all of her utensils religiously & wipes everything down so frequently. I was really pleased to know the extent of her cleanliness. 12/10 stars!

Please book Dani for your wedding. She was so helpful for me on my wedding day & was a critical part of my “dream team”. She has high levels of professionalism & communication, so no need to worry about any bumps in the road with her. Her guidance & expertise in the field were all invaluable to me & I have never felt so beautiful as on my wedding day. I did makeup services with her with 1 trial period a couple months before the wedding. Getting to know her & being able to figure out things like how I like more peachy blushes over pink blushes was fun, informative & very helpful in my confidence leading up to the wedding. I also booked Elegance by Kim for my hair services & these two worked together like peas in a pod. I have never felt so supported by two strong POC businesswomen like themselves. Such great talent & I cannot recommend working with Dani enough!

Dani is amazing! I’m so glad my bridal hairstylist Kim referred her to me. Dani gave me exactly what I was looking for: natural but elevated, me but better. As a Korean American woman, I especially appreciated how Dani was able to enhance my features, rather than avoid them or make me look matronly, as other makeup artists have done in the past. Dani was extremely kind, professional & communicative throughout the entire process. She also did makeup for my sister & mother on the day of & both of them loved their looks as well. Thank you so much, Dani!

Dani is simply the best. She did the makeup for me & my wedding party that included 6 different faces, skin tones, ages & personal preferences. It was important to me to find someone who could do a diverse range of women & she really delivered. Everyone looked amazing & most importantly, still like themselves. Her warmth made everyone feel comfortable as soon as they sat in the chair. Her calming presence went a long way during a time that can sometimes be a bit stressful. Dani was also extremely professional. The booking process was quick & easy. She was buttoned up & very responsive to questions, updates & feedback throughout the entire process.

She was so amazing to work with, from the initial communication all the way up to my wedding day. Dani answered all of my questions, gave great tips & really listened to create the makeup look I was going for! She made me, as well as my bridesmaids & mother-in-law, feel absolutely beautiful. By the end of the evening our makeup still looked flawless. I cannot thank Dani enough! Look no further & be sure to book with Dani!

I first worked with Dani when she provided makeup services for my sister’s wedding in 2017. After my great experience with Dani at my sister’s wedding, I knew I wanted Dani to do makeup whenever I was going to get married. Fast forward to 2023, it was such a blessing to have Dani provide her services for my wedding. My bridesmaids & I all felt extremely comfortable & Dani did a great job of customizing each makeup look to fit the preferences of the person. Dani is so kind & personable & I loved being able to work with her!

Dani was my makeup artist for my wedding in September 2022. She also did the makeup for half of my large wedding party, including my mom, MIL & MOH. Dani made the entire process from initial communication, to booking, wedding planning & the big day a breeze. She answered all my questions & when I had a last minute change to my wedding (completely unrelated to her) & was full of anxiety, I reached out to Dani for advice & she helped me by giving me options & reassurance. I really appreciated this & felt like Dani was one of my friends. On my big day, she showed up early & was ready to go! She gave me tips on how to keep my makeup fresh all night. Dani wears a mask the entire time to take the highest level of precaution because she takes her job & commitment to her brides so seriously – something I find so admirable. I look forward to the next occasion I could use as an excuse for Dani to do my makeup again!

Dani Lou is simply the best! When I had my makeup done by her as a bridesmaid I knew I needed to work with her for my wedding one day. Two years later I got engaged & as soon as I had a date set I reached out to Dani Lou. She was an absolute pleasure to work with… very professional, kind & responsive. She did a fantastic job & made me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. If you are getting married you ABSOLUTELY need Dani Lou! Cannot thank you enough!

I loved working with Dani Lou! Her tagline of “beauty that lets YOU shine through” could not be more accurate of her work. In addition to my own wedding, she has done/will do the makeup for those of at least 3 of my relatives. We all have different styles & Dani Lou skillfully captured them as she did our makeup. On my wedding day, she styled me perfectly – from the blush, to the lip color, to the lashes to make my eyes pop. Everything was stunning. Because there were 10 people getting makeup done, she was joined by her colleague, Tricia, who is also incredibly talented & shared the same great qualities. Lastly, Dani Lou is incredibly friendly & informative. Overall, it felt like working with a friend. If you are a bride in the Chicagoland area, I cannot recommend Dani Lou enough!

I’m so happy I went with Dani as my wedding MUA! I had her bookmarked on Instagram months before even getting engaged because I absolutely loved her signature style of makeup that’s both natural, but also photographs well. She was so professional & flexible, especially with our extremely long email thread with multiple last minute changes. I like very specific things with my makeup that can be hard to put into words, but at our trial, Dani 100% got what I wanted & the day of it was absolutely perfect. My bridesmaids are also notoriously picky & they loved their looks! The most impressive part was that at the end of the night, after 12+ hours with almost no touching up & a lot of dancing, the makeup still looked flawless, I actually felt bad removing it!

From the trial to the day of she gave me the space to try new things, but also do what I was most comfortable with & at the end of the day remained true to my biggest request – to look & feel like me! She is so attentive, sweet, kind & talented! She made my bridesmaids & mother look & feel their absolute best. I hope to work with her again in the future! Thank you, Dani, for making me look & feel my best on my wedding day!

Dani is the absolute best! She was a dream to work with from initial communication through my (two) wedding days. I had a couple bad experiences with makeup trials & Dani immediately made me comfortable by listening to my concerns & tailoring the look to be exactly what I wanted. For both weddings, Dani made me feel like the most beautiful version of myself. I had a variety of skin tones & hair colors in my bridal party & she made all of them look amazing – everyone told me how much they loved working with Dani & her assistant. She also made my mother (who has never worn makeup) feel incredibly comfortable & beautiful. The short version is that you won’t find a kinder, more talented makeup artist than Dani. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Dani is absolutely amazing. I initially hired a different vendor for makeup, but we parted ways after the wedding was postponed due to COVID. It was a blessing in disguise, because Dani did an infinitely better job on my makeup than the previous vendor. She did my makeup, makeup for 3 bridesmaids, as well as makeup for my mom & MIL for my November 13, 2021 wedding. Despite there being a variety of skin types, ages, etc. among our group, she did such an incredible job on EVERYONE. All the ladies looked so stunning & they were genuinely happy with the outcome of Dani’s services. They seemed to glow as they walked away from Dani’s chair. Dani is kind, talented & so easy to work with. She was quick to respond to emails and ease any of my concerns leading up to the wedding. As for my makeup, it lasted all day (10:30 am – 12 am) despite being tested with Chicago’s lakefront winds & later dancing at my reception. I received compliments all night! I highly recommend Dani for wedding makeup & would hire her again for another occasion.

Dani is the best! From communication to execution, she exceeded my expectations through & through. Her communication was always super clear & I appreciated her promptness in replies.

My bridesmaids were a mix of Asians & Caucasians & all of them were pleased with her work. Dani is friendly & professional. I would hire her again in a heartbeat & would recommend her to anyone with my whole heart!

I felt the most beautiful & she’s so talented that I still felt like me, as opposed to feeling like I had a face full of makeup. She’s worth every penny & I am so glad I was able to work with her, no doubt the best investment! Her sweet personality was a bonus, she was responsive & friendly from day one.

Dani was amazing to work with! Our wedding was March 14th, 2020 – the last wedding before the world closed. She came to do my makeup, as well as members of my bridal party & was fully prepared to sanitize in between each person, while still making sure all of us looked beautiful & ready on time. She worked with me during my trial phase & helped me plan my perfect wedding day look. Not only is her work top notch, she is such a sweet person & very easy to talk to.

Dani is the BEST makeup artist! I am a hairstylist who has worked with many MUAs & have had my makeup done by plenty of them. I can confidently say, Dani is by far the most professional & easiest to work with. I showed up to my trial with acne & no sleep, Dani still managed to make me look gorgeous & suggested some fabulous facial products that I am still using today. I am an anxious person & was a very nervous bride, but after my trial with Dani, I felt comfortable & at ease. The makeup was flawless & lasted all day & night! This was so amazing because most of my bridesmaids never wear makeup & were hesitant to get their makeup done for the wedding, but after seeing her work they trusted me & wanted to book. EVERYONE was raving at the end of the night about how their makeup still looked amazing & they hadn’t touched it up at all! Dani was extremely professional, punctual, cleaned all of her tools between faces & even brought an equally amazing assistant to accommodate ALL of my bridesmaids. I HIGHLY recommend Dani for many reasons, but mostly because with all of the stress a wedding can bring, you want a reliable makeup artist that you can count on & trust.

Dani did an amazing job on my makeup for my wedding! She was such a pleasure to work with during the entire wedding planning process. I loved her genuine personality, professionalism & her amazing skills in makeup. She truly brings out your natural beauty. During the makeup trial, Dani takes the time to listen to your needs & wants. She even provided several tips to prepare my skin before the wedding. Even though my wedding was postponed several months later due to COVID-19, Dani still remembered everything from my trial including any changes & tweaks to my makeup. For example, my mascara always smudges & flakes under my eyes. Dani truly shines in her craft & made my makeup flawless for the wedding. Despite all the crying & having to wear a mask, my makeup, including my mascara, stayed intact throughout the entire day! I promise you will not regret using her for your wedding day!

After finding Dani on Instagram & falling in love with her devotion to enhancing brides’ natural beauty, I knew she had to do my wedding makeup! On the big day, Dani was professional, organized, friendly, flexible & efficient. She & her talented assistant, Madison, had my bridal party & me ready ahead of schedule! She never made anyone feel rushed & adjusted her timeline throughout to accommodate my hair stylists’ progress. Dani thoughtfully took feedback from my trial to achieve the look I envisioned: a natural look with a touch of “fairy” glam – perfect for my whimsical day. I felt simply beautiful! She & Madison created natural, polished & cohesive looks across the bridal party. Would definitely recommend for wedding makeup, or other special occasions where you’d like to feel “sparkly”, yet still yourself.

I found Dani on Instagram & could not have been happier! After looking through my friends recommendations, I felt their makeup artists really “caked on” the makeup & didn’t let their natural beauty shine through. While you certainly need to wear a lot of makeup for pictures, I thought Dani had a great approach to getting you wedding day/camera ready while still letting my own beauty show. She was incredibly organized & professional & even gave me some really good skin care tips to get my skin ready for the big day. My bridesmaids all loved their makeup too – book her!

Dani & her assistant did the makeup for my November wedding. We had a large group (myself, seven bridesmaids & two mothers). They handled everything perfectly to ensure we were all ready on time & looking our best! Leading up to the big day Dani was very responsive & easy to work with. Through the trial appointments she was able to help me find the perfect makeup look even though I was having trouble putting it into words. She developed our schedule for the morning, arrived on time & delivered looks that allowed everyone’s natural beauty to shine through. Thank you Dani for helping us to all look & feel our best!

Dani is the absolute BEST! I’m so thankful that I stumbled across her Instagram, I knew she HAD to be the one to do my makeup for my wedding! She’s super sweet & so easy to talk to! I don’t wear too much makeup daily, really just wanted to look natural for the big day. Dani was able to do just that. One of the main reasons why I don’t wear makeup is due to my sensitive skin & how dry it could get. During my makeup trial, Dani was able to recommend some AWESOME products to help prep me for the big day! My makeup held up on the wedding night, even after all the dancing! I’m so appreciative of Dani!

Dani Lou made me look amazing on my wedding day! She gives you that “done up” look where you kind of don’t feel like yourself because you look so amazing, BUT you feel like yourself because she keeps your makeup simple, natural, where you look 10x better… the upgraded version of you (I hope that made sense)! Of course every woman is beautiful, but that’s what makes Dani Lou stand out in this industry, she brings out the real beauty in every woman/bride with her amazing skills & magical hands! I always knew I didn’t want to look like I’m covered with heavy makeup on my wedding day, Dani Lou delivered that! I feel great looking back at myself in all my wedding photos & that’s mostly because of her! The makeup lasted all day & night, even through multiple crying episodes (I was very emotional that day). Thank you a million Dani Lou! I am forever grateful!

Her makeup style is truly amazing, it’s all about enhancing your features rather than making you look like a completely different person. I honestly was so pleased, she did an amazing job! I will for sure be booking her again for many, many other occasions. Thank you, Dani! You’re the best!

Dani is such a pleasure to work with! She was very prompt with my initial inquiry & gave a detailed, clear explanation of rates for my bridal look & bridesmaids, including travel to a farther suburb. Her correspondence is always friendly, upbeat & organized – which helps so much when you’re planning a big event. My skin is sensitive, so it’s hard to tolerate a lot of products, but I LOVED the products she used for my trial. She was kind enough to send me detailed links of what she used after our trial, so I could go buy them. Not only did my skin feel wonderful, my makeup stayed all day & I felt like the best version of myself. My bridesmaids also looked lovely & were happy with their looks. My sister & I both appreciated she can enhance beauty & celebrate diversity in all features, since not all artists are able to do as well with Asian features like ours. I highly recommend to work with Dani for any special occasion where you want to feel beautiful! She’s super fun & sweet! Thanks again, Dani!

Her & her assistant did such an amazing job, my bridesmaids & my mother (who is very hard to please) all loved their makeup so much! I loved how all my girls looked.

I was so worried about getting makeup done for my big day because I thought I was not going to look or feel like myself, but Dani did such a BEAUTIFUL job! She made me feel so beautiful & NATURAL! My husband is not really a fan of makeup & he kept telling me throughout the day how Dani did such a great job, not only on me, but my entire family. They were so happy with her work. Especially my mom, as she got older, I think she forgot how beautiful she is. Thank you for reminding her, Dani. From the bottom of my heart, I’m so grateful I found you on Instagram. The makeup stayed on ALL day I seriously didn’t even go retouch once! I highly recommend Dani! She was on time, beautiful personality & patient with all the bridal madness going around. You will not be disappointed!

One of the things I was most looking forward to for my wedding day was having my makeup done & pampering my bridal party. When I was referred to Dani & got in contact with her, I knew I was going to be in great hands! I met her for my trial & immediately felt so comfortable with her. She is extremely thoughtful & really listens to you. She also had wonderful recommendations on products to use leading up to the big day, along with products to have on-hand for the day of. She was really patient with my mother (it was her first time getting her makeup done professionally). Dani encouraged her to only go with what she felt comfortable with & my mother felt gorgeous! My wedding party was so pleased with their makeup. Everyone looked stunning! I absolutely loved my makeup, it was even better than I had hoped! When she held the mirror in front of me, I was so happy I could cry, but of course had to hold back the tears so I didn’t ruin my makeup! If you are in need of an amazing, caring & talented makeup artist, Dani is your girl! I wouldn’t have changed a thing & highly recommend Dani!

Dani did my makeup for a wedding I was standing up in & she did an amazing job! She was very professional & has such a lovely demeanor. Working with her was a dream! My skin has some acne & redness to it, she covered it up completely, without making the foundation feel or look too heavy. She explained everything she was doing, as she did it, which was helpful for me as a first time makeup client. When she was done, I felt absolutely beautiful & the look lasted all day & night. Thank you, Dani!

I wanted to go for a more natural look & she knew exactly what I wanted! She made sure I was comfortable the entire time & she was great about telling me exactly what she was applying step-by-step! Also, this was my first time having airbrush foundation & let me tell you, it lasted all night long, I was SUPER happy with the results! Dani was super sweet & so calm on the day of the wedding, even with little ones running around! I would definitely recommend her for anyone looking for makeup services!

She literally said it was her favorite part of the wedding, aside from marrying her husband, of course! With that type of recommendation, I had to see if she was available! Luckily she was! I booked her for a trial & left feeling so beautiful. I showed her some inspo photos, so she could see what I was loosely going for, then she quickly got to work. I wore the makeup all day & didn’t want to change a thing. After my trial, I booked Dani & one of her assistants to do my makeup, all of my bridesmaids, my mother & husband’s mother. Both girls worked quickly & made us look & feel so glamorous. You can see in our wedding photos that she did an amazing job! I highly recommend Dani. She’s super sweet & fun to work with.

Dani was absolutely amazing from everything before the wedding to the day of. She is so friendly & warm. She really takes the time to listen to your wants & needs. On the day of my wedding, she remained calm when I was freaking out a little bit. All my bridesmaids loved their makeup! Dani catered to each style of makeup to fit each bridesmaid’s wants. Would highly recommend! Two thumbs up!

Finding the right makeup artist to me was just as difficult as finding the dress. When I found Dani Lou it was fate & so easy to book a trial. Meeting Dani Lou was like meeting a long lost friend. She was caring, warm & talented. She worked with my skin tone & even with my past makeup nightmares found a fresh & great look. The big day was nothing short of perfection. Dani Lou made me feel confident, sexy & flawless. Thank you for making me feel like a queen on my day. She’s the best & have recommended already.

Dani was amazing to work with! She has a great eye & knew how to make me look my best for a friend’s wedding. She made the hour I was with her fly by! I felt so comfortable & confident that night thanks to her. She truly has talent as a make up artist! I can’t wait for my next event just so I can use her again! Thank you, Dani!

Dani did my makeup for a styled wedding photo shoot. She is so incredibly talented at what she does! She paid close attention to details & made me feel absolutely beautiful. It was really hot & humid & my makeup didn’t even budge! She was also very professional, easy to talk to & so sweet. I would highly recommend her to any bride – she’ll make you & your bridesmaids look & feel amazing.

Dani did my makeup for my girlfriend’s wedding in September & I am so beyond happy with how it turned out! She is so fun & sweet to work with. I showed her two pictures of how I wanted my makeup done & she nailed it. She did an even better job than what the pictures were. I would highly recommend her to anyone that is getting married or has a special occasion. She seriously made me feel so beautiful that day!

I was fortunate to have my makeup done by Dani twice as a bridesmaid & a bride! Dani was recommended to me by one of my best friends who booked Dani for her own wedding. I reached out to Dani & she was quick to respond & set up a trial. She emailed tips & suggestions for skin prep for trial day & day of, that I found very helpful! She also had great suggestions & we played around with palettes until it was something I loved. There was a certain lip color I wanted to use & she was very open to my preferences! For someone who is not used to getting their makeup done, she makes you feel comfortable & I didn’t feel like I had “caked” on makeup at all. All my bridesmaids who got their makeup done loved her & their makeup. I would definitely recommend her. Do not hesitate to set up a trial!

I was lucky enough to have Dani do my makeup for a recent wedding I was in. Her application is flawless & stayed perfectly in place through hours of dancing (& sweating)!!! I absolutely loved the way it looked in person & photographs. On top of that, it felt so lightweight & comfortable. Every part of the experience was positive & I would highly reccommend her for both her professionalism & skill. I can’t wait for another event so I can book her again

I’ve been wanting to get my makeup done by Dani for a long time & finally had the opportunity last night. She has blown me away with her amazing talent! There were 7 women in our group & she made everyone look & feel absolutely gorgeous! The makeup stayed on the entire night – not a smudge of eyeliner beneath my eyes or eyeshadow creases by the end of the party, which I’ve experienced with other professional makeup applications. Thank you, Dani, for making all of us look our best! I can’t wait to have you do my makeup again!

I discovered Dani on Instagram in search for a professional makeup artist for my lovely mother, nana & bridesmaids. I’m so glad I chose Dani! From the start her communication & professionalism was A++++. She was so easy to work with & I really felt she genuinely cared about my special day & making it the best she could! The day of the wedding she arrived in a timely manner & exuded a happy spirit & energy! I was very impressed by her set-up & kit. I had a very specific look I wanted for the makeup on my girls & she created my vision perfectly! My girls looked amazing & felt beautiful. Thank you, Dani for taking such good care of my girls & for being such a delightful gem!

Dani did my makeup for a wedding in June & I loved it! She kept everything very natural & I felt like myself. My makeup stayed on just as she applied it all day through the 100 degree heat, sweat, & many tears. I wish that Dani could do my bridal makeup for my own Boston wedding coming up!

I discovered Dani through my cousin Jeni & I’m so happy that I did! She is so friendly & fun to work with. She made the booking process effortless & had such reasonable pricing. She is very organized, prompt with her responses & it made our communication easy going. As for my makeup trial, I absolutely loved it! I had it done on a day I had a wedding to attend to, so it was perfect! She was even willing to accommodate on a special weekend if you’re planning your bridal shower or bachelorette. She was helpful in offering her suggestions on things I wasn’t sure about & she was open minded to hearing any changes that I wanted after my trial. I normally have oily skin & she was able to control that on the day of my wedding. My face didn’t shine through, especially during the 90 degree weather! She made me look extra amazing on my wedding day! I would definitely recommend her!

Dani did a fantastic job with my makeup as a bridesmaid in my friend’s wedding. She listened to me describe the look I was going for & made me feel beautiful for the full 12 hours that I was on duty. I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup & my fiance hates the “overdone” look, but my look on this day passed the test! I only wish I lived closer to her so I could book her for my own wedding in a few months!

I was so lucky to have Dani help at my wedding! She was so kind throughout the entire process. From the trial to the day of the event, she was a pure delight. She arrived early & was wonderful with my entire family. She made my mom & sister feel (and look) amazing! I will suggest her to all of my friends. Loved her & would 100% hire her again.

I worked with Dani for a lesson. She was so knowledgeable, was able to match me with all of the right products & had great recommendations. I looked great for my night out & now have all the tools I need to do it myself. She left me with step by step instructions with every detail. Wonderful experience.

I’m so glad I met with Dani for a makeup lesson for my wedding! I’m not very makeup savvy. I normally do not wear much makeup & I didn’t even know where to start or what products to buy for my wedding look. Luckily, Dani took plenty of time to listen to what I wanted & to teach me. She was so patient, thorough & the look she created for me was perfect! I felt beautiful & not too overdone. Dani was also extremely helpful in suggesting which products to buy. She wrote out detailed instructions with links to the right products. I have used my new skills & products multiple times since, including on my wedding day! I couldn’t believe how well the makeup lasts all day. I love having the confidence & capabilities to make myself look fancy & pretty whenever I want to now. I learned so much from Dani!

Dani did my makeup for a styled photo shoot I modeled in & OMG it was amazing! I am usually weary about getting my makeup done because I usually do not wear much makeup & I don’t feel like myself when I have it done for a special occasion. I felt so pretty & natural even though she went an extra mile in order for the photos to really pop. I absolutely loved it & I will most definitely use Dani again for my next event I get to get dressed up at.

Dani was great! She was so accommodating & flexible with what I was wanting to get out of my makeup lesson & made me feel comfortable experimenting with a new look. I learned new techniques & now feel way more confident about products, application & brushes – which is exactly what I wanted. Thank you again Dani!

Dani is amazing! She recently did the makeup for a wedding party I was in & she killed it! We all loved it & looked beautiful! The best part is that the makeup stayed on all day & night! It was unbelievable! She’s also very nice, easy to talk to & was very helpful in calming the brides anxiety from all the commotion of the day. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist!

After communicating with several different makeup artists who treated me rudely & a makeup trial that left me feeling like I did not look like myself, I finally found Dani! She made me feel & look like a Disney princess after my makeup trial, so I just knew I had to hire her for my wedding! She did the makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, my mom, & my mother-in-law. My mom originally didn’t want her makeup done, but when she saw how good we all looked she wanted hers done too & Dani was able to easily fit her in. We all looked & felt beautiful & our makeup lasted all day. It felt super natural & never felt heavy or cakey or itchy which is a problem I’ve had in the past when getting my makeup done. I also have very sensitive skin & did not experience any breakouts with the makeup she used (a problem I’ve had in the past). Dani is sweet, fun, affordable & professional. She will make you look & feel amazing & is extremely easy to work with. You will not be disappointed if you hire her to do your makeup for any event! I wish she could come do my makeup every day!

Dani was a dream to work with! I love that she was able to come to my house & meet my busy schedule! She arrived on time & prepared! Dani made our first time meeting/makeup application so easy & comfortable! Her communication skills & makeup artistry make her a true professional! I felt absolutely beautiful all day & night long wearing her masterpiece on my face!! Even in 90 degree weather my makeup stayed fresh for 10+ hours! Dani is now my go-to girl, & I can’t wait to find an excuse to work with her again!!!

Dani is my favorite makeup artist! She is professional, talented & super sweet. She did my makeup for my Baby Sprinkle & was able to nail the look I was going for, natural with an enhanced pregnancy glow. I loved her work & all of the products she used. She even took the time to provide me with a list of products that she had used during the application. I look forward to working with her again & have been recommending her to all my family & friends!

Thank you, Dani, for your help with makeup application. I’m clueless on how to apply my own makeup & needed help for a special event I was attending. I wanted a “natural look”, since I wanted to look like myself, but better. The results were amazing, thanks again!

To say that I enjoyed the Dani Lou Beauty experience is an understatement! Dani made me feel comfortable & was very informative during the makeup session. She made sure to tell me what products she was using & why she was using them. I felt beautiful after she was done “slaying” my face. The makeup was glamorous, but natural – I still felt & looked like myself.
