Hi my name is Jaclyn. I booked Alexa Prisco for my sisters wedding on September 11, 2010 at the Manor in West Orange, NJ. Words cannot express how beautiful she made us all look. She was soo down to earth and very professional. My mom always complains how old her skin is getting. Alexa made my mom look 20 years younger. She brought out her eyes and skin tone. Everyone was shocked at how beautiful and young my mom looked. My parents are divorced and my dad even went up to my mom to compliment her on her makeup. My mom still talks about the amazing job Alexa did to this day. My sister looked georgeous as well. The photographer showed us some of the pictures and her makeup popped. She looked like a model. She was so pleased and thanked me the whole night for having Alexa do her makeup. I had my makeup done my different makeup artists and noone compares to Alexa. Alexa is one of a kind in what she does. Anyone who rates her less then a five is retarded. She's a ten in our family eyes. We will defintely be calling her up for any event that we have to go too in the future!!!! Alexa thank you again for everything. As sooon as we develop the pictures we will post them.

Alexa does amazing work! She truly is an artist and I loved the way my makeup came out the day of my wedding. After my trial with her I would have paid anything to have her do my makeup for my wedding day because it looked that good. On my wedding day, so many people complimented my makeup and some even said they could see my eyes all the way up on the altar in church during the ceremony. Alexa knows the techniques and tricks for having you look amazing both near and far. Her assistant did all of my bridesmaids makeup and they all looked unbelievable, too. I have never seen such great makeup done for the bridesmaids in a wedding. All had their own style but all looked so beautiful! Alexa teaches her assistants her techniques and they do a great job. Honestly you shouldn't have anyone else but Alexa do your makeup for your wedding day. She really is the best.

I stumbled across The Glam Fairy last winter when I needed a makeup artist for my engagement party. I contacted Alexa after reviewing her website and quickly booked her for the party. On the day of the engagement party Alexa did a GORGEOUS job on my makeup-without even having a trial! I knew that once I set a wedding date that there was no other choice for who I would pick to be my makeup artist for the wedding. Words can not explain what an amazing job Alexa did on the day of my wedding. Her work is incredible and she made me look beautiful! Alexa is professional, focused, and super friendly. When selecting a makeup artist you will not be disappointed in the Glam Fairy!

I was married on Oct 23, 2009 and Alexa was my makeup artist.. Let me tell you that this girl is amazing !!! I choose the airbrush makeup and I am soooo happy that I did... It looked amazing in both photos and in person ... Everyone loved the makeup and my whole family was greatful that I had Alexa do my makeup.. I am sort of a makeup snob and I do not trust anyone to touch my face but, Alexa surpassed my expectations !! She is trully amazing and I think every Bride should book her for her wedding !! I am actually going to be taking some private classes with Alexa to learn the tricks of HER trade !!

I've used Alexa several times in the past and absolutely loved her. So I was thrilled that she was able to travel to the Outer Banks of North Carolina for my wedding on October 16, 2009. There was no way I could settle for any other makeup artist after using Alexa. She always makes me laugh so it was great to have her there on my wedding day to calm me down and get my mind off my nerves. She is such an amazing artist, and I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to feel amazing on their wedding day!

I had a bride's worst nightmare occur 2 days before my wedding! I stupidly went to go get my eyebrows waxed and guess what!? I had HUGE burn marks across my whole face. Not only that, but silly me, didn't think to contact Alexa to inform her of my siutation.I loved my trial and was praying for the same results after what I did to myself. Alexa and her glam fairies came right on time - to the minute. Alexa made my mother look flawless and beautiful. Then it came to me. Instead of screaming at me (like I would have done) about waxing before the wedding AND not calling her; she simply said I promise I will do the best I can!And did she ever!! My pictures are flawless! I hate to brag but I looked amazing, and not one camera caught one glimpse of burns or scars by my face. Now also keep in mind she did this all without the special makeup she usually uses for scars!I highly recommend Alexa and her Glam Fairies. They honestly and literally saved the day and made me and my family the most beautiful we have ever been.

Alexa was AMAZING and VERY EASY to work with considering the various obstacles I encountered throughout my wedding planning (she introduced me to the best cupcake in the world when I needed it most)!!!! While applying our makeup, she explained everything she did making us comfortable and teaching us at the same time! Our makeup was FLAWLESS and we looked ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL!!!! My makeup lasted through dancing all night and even through my flight to our honeymoon! I highly recommend Alexa and will definitely use her again!!!

Alexa did makeup for my mother, my MOH, and myself for my August 28th wedding. I cannot rave about her enough...she is amazing! Everyone's makeup looked fantastic! She was worth every penny! I have been a devoted makeup wearer for over 10 years. I like to think I am pretty good at it but Alexa blows me out of the water! I went to a makeup trial with another makeup artist prior to my trial with Alexa. I almost cried mid-way through the trial. It was terrible! I asked her what the airbrush would look like if I cried...she airbrushed her hand and sprayed water on it and it just ran down her fingers! I considered doing my own makeup for the wedding before found Alexa. I went to my trial with Alexa and she knew exactly what I wanted. She is very quick and was done with my trial in no time. I couldn't believe how great it looked! I went home and you couldn't drag me away from the mirror. Alexa replicated my trial perfectly on the wedding day! I usually can't stand fake eyelashes but I couldn't even tell I had them on! The airbrush makeup she uses is silicon based so it stayed on all night, even though I was very sweaty from dancing all night! Alexa has a great personality and it was a pleasure working with her.I highly recommend her!

Alexa Prisco = Queen of Makeup!I met Alexa a few years ago when my friend was getting married. I watched her do makeup for all the ladies and mothers and couldn't believe how incredible she was. She was very professional and talented.I emailed her and told her whenever I get married I don't care I want you!Two years later...ta da the magical fairy did my makeup!!!I brought Alexa a picture of what I wanted done and she topped it!I had airbrush done and had one touch-up that took 5 minutes done the entire day!The airbrushing was flawless. . . it gave me that fresh off the red carpet look...I never had to worry about my makeup the entire night...which makes a brides life ten times easier....There is no doubting Alexa's work...She dedicated her life to perfect her craft and it shines through...so ATTENTION BRIDES...SHES THE ONE...!no matter what you say...this is your one day to shine...there is no pricing the talent she has...she is termed priceless...she keeps a fresh and friendly attitude. . .

OMG! Alexa is AMAZING!!! I wanted a dramatic, sexy look for my non-wedding, wedding. She was exactly what I was looking for. I went to Alexa for a trial, 30 minutes and some hysterical conversation later, I was transformed! INSANE!!! I knew the GLAM FAIRIES would work wonders with us. I had Alexa airbrush myself as well as both mothers. Her assistant (I think Katia) did my 8 girls. The RAVES were coming in all night! Her assistant even took pictures saying this was the sexiest bridal party she had ever seen... yeah, to the glam fairies!!! She has an assistant packages which is great. I got to splurge (hell, it's my wedding day!) and my girls got to spend an amount they were comfortable with, considering I was one of many weddings they have this summer. Even my photographer said she hadn't seen anything like it and raved about her on her blog! Get her before someone else books your date!!!

I honestly don't know where to begin with my review. There are no words to describe how insanely happy I was with Alexa and my makeup for my 6/5/09 wedding. I booked Alexa fairly last minute (after deciding not to go with another artist.) I didn't have a trial with Alexa but I just knew from all of the pictures I saw that I would be happy with her. Not only was I happy, I was truly blown away when I looked into the mirror. She asked me about the look I was going for "total sexpot?" and I said "yes exactly." And that she did. My husband's first words when he saw me at the alter was "omg wow". That was exactly what I wanted his reaction to be. I had airbrush make-up done and my maid of honor had regular which she loved as well. Our makeup lasted all night with no worries.Her personality is insane but absolutely hysterical we were all saying how much we loved her hours after she had left. Its been about 3 months from my wedding and I am still hearing compliments about my makeup and friends are still asking me for her info so that they can book her.

Alexa was great - I am not usually big makeup wearer and really just wanted to look like somebody WAY more glamorous than me for my wedding day, and Alexa completely captured the look I wanted, and she worked with my skin tone/eye color/hair color etc. to really make sure that the makeup was flattering to me. She uses great products and the make-up does not wear off - I had my make-up applied at 11 AM and it stayed right in place until the last guest left our after-party at 11 PM. The pictures also came out beautifully because Alexa really knows how to apply makeup in a way that a camera is able to capture (I can't tell you how many brides I have seen in pictures who pick the wrong makeup and the photography completes washes out their face).Alexa was on time for my wedding day, was efficient, and helped my Mom and sister pick the best makeup for themselve as well. I would recommend her to anybody looking for a fun makeup artist to make you look your best. She's a little pricey, but you're not going to get Bloomingdale's quality at a Target price - it's worth it when it's one day of your life!

Alexa was an absolute dream to work with on my wedding day. At the trial I wasnt sure exactly what kind of look i wanted and we took time together looking through her portfolio and all magazine clippings and together found the perfect look for my day. My entire party and I had airbrush makeup and I will say that the airbrushing stayed on ALL NIGHT. She was BEYOND professional and made a little schedule for all my bridesmaid to follow which really made the morning of my wedding run beyond smoothly. And I am a total MAC hound so Alexas personality in addition to all the makeup she has was a match made in heaven for me!Her mom is some famous artist so she even gave me a print of her moms stuff for our new condo which we LOVE. I would reccomend Alexa to anyone that is looking for the big cheese of makeup artists! And ya she is pricey-- but so is Gucci, Prada and anything else that is the best of the best. Service, unlike a retail product, is NOT price sensitive-- so you get what you pay for! And Alexa was worth every single penny.

Alexa gave me the dream look for my dream wedding. My makeup looked so natural and I had a radiant glow that lasted all night long. I received so many compliments from my family and guests, not to mention how amazing it looked on camera and film! I can't thank Alexa enough. She was so great to work with, very professional yet so personable you feel like you've known her for years. The Glam Fairy is worth every penny and I plan on using her again for a friend�s upcoming wedding. My advice to any future brides reading this is if you want to look out of this world for the most important day of your life, then The Glam Fairy is the vendor for you.

Alexa's work is amazing! She did 4 of us on my wedding day and we all looked super beautiful (I think). I've never felt more beautiful in my life than when she does my makeup (4 times now, the 3rd being my wedding day). Between her and Mandy of LaSorella Bridal, I felt like a princess. Not only does Alexa do amazing work, she's a really cool person. She's sweet and funny and fashionable and smart and even though I got married well over a year ago, we're still in touch. I HIGHLY recomend the Glam Fairy. She is worth every penny.

I am soo glad that I chose Alexa to do my makeup on my wedding day. At the trial, she was very helpful and very very knowledgable. She explained everything to me very carefully (as this was my first time), and she was very patient with me. The day of my wedding she came to my house with some help (I had 12 people getting makeup) on time and was very professional. My makeup came out outstanding and lasted all through the night. Her and her assistant did a wonderful job on all the girls and I have pictures to prove it! I was very nervous about getting a makeup artist since I breakout easily and also sweat alot (especially when i am dancing), but Alexa assured me she would take care of it and she kept her word!! My makeup stayed put and I didnt have to worry about a thing. I would truly recommend her to anyone out there looking for a makeup artist.

Glam Fairy Rocks! I was impressed from the beginning when i met Alexa at a wedding expo. Later on we did a trial run of makeup to see exactly what i wanted and she was great. Flawless without it looking like too much. My wedding pics came out amazing, makeup looked great all day. She was prompt, professional and really cool. Worth EVERY penny. I would highly recommend her to anyone for ANY occasion!
