GLAMtrashMAKEUP

Marina was amazing!!! She just did the make up for my daughters quinceanera and it was wonderful!!! I couldn’t of been more pleased. She made us look like a million bucks… Compliments all night!!! Thanks Marina!

I had been following Marina for a bit now on Instagram. I already knew I wanted to book her for my civil ceremony & was ecstatic that she was available. Once I knew I booked her right away. She was very professional, sweet, has great talent & even helped out with my hair. I even had a couple questions for her prior to the day I was getting married & she took the time to answer them all. I also liked how she confirmed my appointment the day before, great customer service!!! I would definitely recommend her to everybody I know. I will be going back the next time I need my makeup done for an occasion.
BOOK HER FOR YOUR EVENT NOW!!!

It’s been 6 months since my original review and Marina has became my «go-​to» makeup artist! She’s super sweet and always makes me look flawless! I always receive compliments on my makeup every time she does it! I have continually recommend her to ALL of my friends and they have never been disappointed.
I wouldn’t ever go to someone else now, Marina has spoiled me with her makeup skills! ;) She also has the best high quality products, and keeps updated with new makeup trends and product releases. Don’t hesitate to book Marina for your next event! She’s super busy because she’s so talented!

Marina is simply the sweetest, and tremendously talented. For my appointment, I met with her at her home. So wonderful to meet and talk with her adorable kids. Absolutely heartwarming to see her in her home element. We began the appointment immediately, Marina being focused and attentive the entire time. Her work is excellent. I was extremelypleased with the outcome. My makeup lasted until nearly 2am! My appointment was 8:30am, and it did take time go get through the appointment. Completely understandable, and i’m sure it varies from client to client. I cannot wait for another opportunity to work with her again.

I found Marina on instagram and wanted her to do my makeup for my wedding. It was the easiest and best decision I made. She made me feel and look beautiful. I would recommend her to everyone I know who needs to get their makeup done!!! I especially loved how she did my mama’s makeup as I have never seen her so happy!

I have nothing to say except good things about Marina! She is as beautiful in person as she is in her profile. She did an exceptional job on my makeup. I love the way it turned out!
If you’re looking for someone to make you look like a million dollar then go to her. Her makeup will make you look flawless!
And girls! Don’t expect to pay less, make up is very expensive. Her prices are very reasonable and she only use good quality makeup.
Would definitely go back in the future!

I think I just found my go to makeup artist! Marina is just simply incredible! She made me feel so welcome & very comfortable. This was my first time with her. Besides great conversations from vegan food, soft rock music & amongst other things. She also gave me a lot of tips on make up since I had a bunch of questions! She is a perfectionist at what she does & her work shows it.
Where have you’ve been all this time! I guess it’s true. You have to go thru a bunch to find that perfect one & I found it with Marina!
I’ve already booked another appt with her for another wedding in October!
I would highly recommend her to all my family friends!

I have followed Marina’s makeup account on Instagram for a few years now & I have always wanted her to do my makeup. When it came time to get a makeup artist for my wedding day I knew I wanted Marina to do it! I was lucky enough to book her for my bridal makeup & I couldn’t be happier that I did. Not only is Marina an amazing makeup artist but she’s also very professional & super sweet. I gave her an idea of what I wanted but told her I trusted her professional opinion & to do what would look best on me. I loved my finished look & was able to party all night w/​out my makeup coming off or messing up. Thank you Marina! I’ll definitely recommend you to anyone looking for a makeup artist. You made me feel & look beautiful!

I’m ROSE I was looking for a good make up artist and hairstylist for my fiancé marine dine out and I found marina on Unilocal,this is my first time I’m doing my make up done and I was so impressed im so happy and I feel so beautiful!!! A lot of people compliment about my natural make up :) I felt so beautiful that night with my fiancé :) Marina is so talented and she’s such an amazing person :) my fiancé loved my natural make up and my hair. I will definitely coming back and she’s always going to be my make up artist that I trust, and the price is good too :) so what are you waiting for go for marina!!!

Wonderful and artistic talent! Marina gave me the best look for nye celebration. I rarely use make up but she got me a natural look. I was complimented the whole night. I would definitely recommend her. and will need her services in the future. Great job!

Loved everything about my look and overall experience! Marina is very nice and considerate when it comes to overall makeup application. My face looked flawless and I couldn’t have been happier. Would definitely recommend and book for more future military balls and special event!

I took a makeup lesson from Marina and couldn’t be happier! She explained things thoroughly and so that I could understand them. She made me feel comfortable and was very down to earth. Being a fellow hairstylist and makeup artist, I appreciated the fact that she was willing to teach me her tips and tricks and not once acted like she was better than me or annoyed by all of my questions! Lol :) I would definitely recommend her!

I first discovered Marina on instagram and I fell in love with her work. I called upon her for my engagement photos and was not disappointed. I actually did a trial run and ended up taking some family photos because I loved my makeup so much that day!
For my engagement I asked for something that would make my eyes stand out with a pop of color and had amazing results! She was also kind enough to accommodate my request for hair. People have given me so many compliments on the hair styling and makeup in my photos and I couldn’t be happier with my pictures.
I’m glad I went to her as she is reasonably priced for a MUA of her caliber and a very professional service provider. Her demeanor is warm and welcoming as I am always greeted with a smile and she really listens to her clients to make sure she is doing exactly what they want. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a quality makeup artist and wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again.

She was great!!! My sister got her make up done a year ago for her prom with marina and her face looked flawless so I had to get her for my wedding! My face is oily and has acne I told her how my face gets oily throughout the day and she said not to worry about it that it wouldn’t. After she was done I could not have felt more beautiful I was very happy with the make up! My face did not get oily like it usually does though the evening so that was great and my make up did not smear or run through the tears of joy so I was very happy with the result and would recommend her to anyone who needs their make up done!

Marina is amazing!!! Her makeup for my wedding day was flawless, I received soooo many compliments on it and I felt like a princess. She also did my mom and mother-in-law’s makeup and did a flawless job and catered to their requests. I never really wear makeup so I was unsure if a lot of makeup would look good on me but she made it look very pretty and not caked on! I would definitely hire her again/​recommend her to others in the San Diego area.

I would give her a 3.5 stars. I found her on IG and luckily for me she was local. Marina has skills! She really does BUT I wasn’t 100% happy. My eye-​shadow was flawless! I loved it but the foundation was very creamy and I have extremely oily skin. It was very cakey and thick. I felt like it was appropriate for a photo shoot but not an anniversary dinner. I went home, wiped everything off except my brows and shadow and re did it. She did ask me if I liked it but because I only paid like $ 50 I felt bad telling her especially because she’s really nice. She is pretty affordable and sometimes has deals. I don’t think I would use her again but I think she would be great for photo shoots

Couldn’t of had anyone else do my makeup so beautifully, I don’t usually wear a lot of makeup so I was kind of nervous to see the results but she made me feel so comfortable and everything looked amazing my wedding pictures came out so good because she focused so much on the detail thank you so much again! I give her 5 stars!!!

All I can say is that I have NEVER in my life felt more beautiful as I did on my wedding day thanks to Marina Reed. I will most definitely return to her for any of my important future events because I know she will make me look the bomb dot com.
If you need a makeup artist for your wedding, birthday, prom, or ANY other event, it should not even be a question on who you go to… even if you have to travel a distance. She should be working in Hollywood with the stars!!!

Marina was referred to me by my maid-​of-​honor. She had been following Marina on Instagram and RAVED about her makeup. So I decided to give her a try for my wedding make up. I have to say that I am SO GLAD that I did. My makeup came out FANTASTIC for my special day. I couldn’t be happier.
Aside from how great she is, she was easy to talk to and I felt that she really understood what I wanted for my make up. She listened and was willing to start over or try different shades and was very patient. She cared about what I wanted and cared about pleasing me as a customer. I asked her TONS of questions about what she was doing and she was always happy to explain the techniques she was using, etc.
I would recommend her to EVERYONE. She is amazing. She will definitely be my go-​to make up girl for ANY other special event I have.

I usually get my makeup done at MAC for special occasions. But I stumbled upon Marina’s Instagram and instantly followed her. Her work is amazing. She makes faces look absolutely gorgeous and flawless.
I sent her an email and booked her to do my birthday makeup. Once I arrived we discussed the occasion, what I was going to be doing, wearing and what i wanted done. She was full of ideas. I told her what i was wearing and how id be in the sun all day but needed my makeup to last into the latest hours of the night. I wanted something glittery since I was attending a music festival. She suggested a glittery smokey eye and I told her I trusted her and to do whatever she thought best.
Marina is truly talented. She always asked if it was okay to do a certain something, or whether it was something I wanted. She is also the sweetest. She sees her clients in her home and never for a moment was there any awkward silence or uncomfortableness. Her kids are also the cutest.
My makeup turned out beautifully. She put extra glue on my lashes as well as extra primer and finishing spray to make sure I didn’t sweat all my makeup off. I booked Marina again for another event and the result was the same, a beautiful full face of makeup, including lashes for $ 50. I have not been to another MUA since finding Marina.
If your looking for amazing makeup, book Marina. She loves what she does and is amazing at it. you won’t be disappointed. If you love your makeup, don’t forget to tip her!
