Makeup by Elizabeth is owned and led by Elizabeth, a makeup artist and licensed esthetician who works from a studio inside Tranquility Rising in Blue Ash. Elizabeth has been a makeup artist for more than 20 years, including time as a makeup and beauty consultant for Victoria's Secret Beauty and ULTA, and has done freelance wedding makeup for over 12 years.
Wedding makeup is generally done on location, though bridal parties can come to the studio. Every wedding makeup service includes lashes, and bridal packages come with a touch-up kit for the bride. Day-of makeup starts at $250 and covers on-site application, skin prep, airbrush or traditional foundation, a custom eye design and premium lashes. A bridal package that adds an in-studio trial and wedding day makeup starts at $350. Bridal party makeup is $120, a junior bridesmaid look is $65, and flower girls under 10 are free. Trials take place at the studio, usually one to three months before the wedding, and a free 15-minute consultation comes first. Looks are adjusted to each client's comfort, from full to natural.
Reserving a wedding date requires a non-refundable $150 deposit, and no date is held until that deposit is received, including for clients who have booked a trial. Once the deposit clears, the date is secured and a contract follows to confirm the details. Full payment is expected 14 days before the wedding. Couples generally reserve six to twelve months ahead. The salon books one wedding per day, and bookings made less than six months out are handled on a limited basis. Friday and Saturday weddings held April through October need at least four people in the party. For parties of seven or more, a second makeup artist can be added for $150, but this must be arranged in advance. Events located more than 20 miles from downtown Cincinnati may carry a travel charge. Payment is accepted by check, cash or credit card. Quotes are customized to each wedding, and a complete price quote can be provided on request.
Outside weddings, event makeup for galas, engagement parties, headshots, speaking events and celebrations is $150 for one hour. Makeup lessons include a natural eye makeup lesson with natural false lashes ($150 for an hour), a teen lesson for ages 12 to 18 ($150 for an hour), and smokey eye lessons. Skin services include an Express Dermaplane Facial Package of three sessions for $200, and the MBE Signature Tan Sculpt, a 30-minute sculpting treatment using self-tanning techniques on the face, neck and chest for $50. Tan Sculpt results last about five to seven days, and for spray tan clients it is booked 24 hours after a full-body tan and after one shower. Brow services include a three-visit Brow Rehab Series for $145, with visits typically four to six weeks apart, plus brow tinting and brow waxing. Body waxing and tattoo concealment (from $80) are also offered, and false eyelash application without makeup is $20. Event makeup, brow waxing and tinting, facials, Tan Sculpt, lessons, smokey eye lessons and body waxing are booked through the business's booking website.
Looks are shaped around each client's own features and comfort, from full to natural, with skin prepared carefully before makeup and Tan Sculpt placement fitted to each face.
