Magda and her team were amazing! Words simply cannot describe how stress free the process was to ensure I looked gorgeous on my wedding day. Magda and her team took care of my three bridesmaids and I with ease. From planning our trail to the Wedding day itself, she was prompt, timely and listened to everything I wanted. Needless to say my hair and makeup was exactly how I envisioned it being. I will certainly be recommending her to anyone I know in need of hair and makeup for their Big Day! Thank you so much Magda!

Magda is a truly talented professional.
She is reliable, very friendly, and extremely knowledgeable in both hair and makeup. She was able to recreate the exact look I was going for. My hair and makeup looked absolutely stunning and most importantly it LASTED. I will definitely be using Magdas services again for future events. More...

Magda impressed me, my Mom, and my bridesmaids beyond belief! Most importantly, she will make you feel beautiful in your own skin. Her style is more natural than a lot of other makeup artists, which is very hard to find (she can do any style though!). I fell in love with Magda’s style during our trial – she asked me for photos of things I liked and didn’t like and she basically nailed the look on the first try. I felt like I was in really good hands for the wedding and was really thankful to have found her. She is nice, makes you feel comfortable around her, and is open to suggestions - her goal is to make you happy with your look! I had a first makeup trial with another woman who made me look not like myself. I wear subtle makeup day-to-day so I didn’t want to lose my features. On the day of the wedding, she was very professional and detailed, but she worked swiftly – the girls loved their natural, but gorgeous looks which accentuated all of their best features. My makeup stayed on pretty perfectly throughout the whole day even though I am definitely a crier and love to dance. Both of my maid of honors who are getting married this year immediately inquired about her availability. After my wedding photos had come in, multiple people have asked me where I had my makeup done and those that live far out-of-state have asked for my wedding photo for reference to instruct their own makeup artist. If you are looking to feel beautiful, like the best version of yourself on your wedding day – book Magda without a doubt! More...

I cannot express say how amazing Magda was, from the trial through to the day of the wedding. In addition to being amazing with the hair and makeup at the trial, she became my aesthetician and helped my skin get to a place when I felt effortlessly beautiful and glowing. Our personalities instantly clicked and her willingness to help and communicate with me from day 1 immediately won me over. I didn’t even have to go to any other trials because I knew she was the right fit for me and booked her right at the trial and I don’t regret it for one second! Not only did she take wonderful care of me, but she also did my sister’s, my best friend’s, and my goddaughter’s hair and makeup. My makeup and hair didn’t budge and I felt just as beautiful at the end of the night (one of the images below). Thank you so much Magda. You truly added to the magic of my special day. More...

Magda did makeup and hair for me and my bridal party and we were all thrilled with the results. Even my two bridesmaids who “just don’t look good in makeup” could not stop raving about her work. From trial to wedding day, Magda was thoughtful, professional, personable and passionate about her work and I cannot recommend her highly enough! She gets two thumbs way up from a bride that didn’t think it was possible for her to look beautiful on her wedding day. More...

Magda was the BEST makeup and hairstylist any bride could ever want. She not only was professional but exceptional in the work that she does. From the very beginning she was patient and listened to my vision and exceeded my expectations. felt like the most beautiful woman on my wedding day. She also did my two daughters hair and makeup and they looked amazing. She has an understanding of what young and older woman want and she accomplishes the look. Beyond her love for what she does and how well she does it, she has an awesome personality. We laughed, we teared up and ultimately she made my day relaxed and fun. I HIGHLY recommend her and will be using her for future events for myself and my family! More...

Magda did hair and makeup for myself, my mom, and my sisters for my wedding day. I've been in a lot of weddings and have had my hair and makeup done many times before, and can absolutely without hesitation say Magda did a fabulous job, much better job that anyone else I have worked with. My mom was so transformed that the photographer didn't even recognize her from before to after hair and makeup. Magda listened to what I wanted, helped me interpret that for a look that worked with my dress, and was very flexible to my feedback (including doing a second trial when I wanted to try adjusting my hair.) The best part though is everyone not only looked amazing, but also looked totally natural. The makeup looked as good up close as it did for the camera. She is also friendly, fun, and an awesome addition to the bridal suite for the day of the wedding. More...

Magda did a wonderful job on my hair as well as my girls. It was too difficult for me to do a hair trial because I was living out of state in Indiana. On the day of my wedding, I showed her a few pictures of what I wanted my hair to look like (Hollywood glam) and she was able to create that look for me perfectly. I chose not to use any hair extensions and it still looked beautiful. Thank you Madga for your services! More...

Truly 5 star in every category. I had 4 hair trials before I selected Magda. Needless to say I am picky about hair. Magda was able to perfectly recreate the natural, yet elegant, down style I was looking for that I was having trouble finding with anyone else. My hair looked soft and finished, and my 3 bridesmaids looked perfect as well. Magda was so calming and organized the day of the wedding. There was never a minute I felt rushed. She had used her time so well, we even had time to do a style for Mom (which also looked perfect) that we hadn't planned for. I have been in many weddings. The speed that Magda is able to work with achieving the level of quality she does shows how well she knows what she is doing and this is exactly what you need the day of your wedding, a professional. She also was able to give me a few tips about how I needed to prepare my hair leading up the wedding. I am so happy I chose Madga for my day. I cannot thank you enough Madga! More...

My bridesmaids and I were thrilled with how natural and beautiful Magda and her team were able to make us look for my wedding! We loved their ability to make everyone's natural hair (ranging from curly to straight, thick to thin) each look gorgeous and special. Our makeup similarly enhanced each of our features, while looking flawlessly natural and elegant. Magda also went above and beyond agreeing to stay for her normal rate extra time to do touch-ups after we were outside (it was really hot out).

Weddings are stressful, but hair and makeup is one thing that doesn't have to be! My advice: HIRE MAGDA! She's amazing! She has a spectacular ability to bring out your natural beauty without losing the "you" in your wedding day! I'm super picky with my hair, and very anxious anytime I get it put up, but she was patient and responsive to every little concern I had! After our trial I knew I had nothing to worry about re: hair/makeup for the big day! She's just wonderful! Excellent for moms, sisters, bridesmaids (and even a little touchup on your handsome groom!). Seriously, I would recommend to stop reading reviews and give her a call ASAP!!! More...

Instead of making me feel stupid, she was more than happy to work with me until it was perfect. I also was so indecisive with my makeup, but she knew what to do to make it look just right!!

Magda really listened to what I wanted, and more importantly what I didn't want. It was very important to me to look like ME, just a little done up, on my big day, and that's what I got! My day of hair was exactly like my trial hair and she did it so effortlessly! (She comes to you for trials!)
I had 5 bridesmaids and a 3 year old flower girl....they were all SO happy with their makeup application because it was to their taste yet fancy for the day, and Magda's assistant absolutely PERFECTED everyone's hair. We had braids, curls, short hair, long hair, thin hair, thick hair, extensions.....she managed to make them all look cohesive and match the style of the wedding and dresses as we showed and described to her (without doing any trials!).
Highly Recommended and would use them again in a heartbeat!

Magda has been a lifesaver for me. I first started seeing her when I had severe acne, and I continue to go to her for regular facials and micro needling. Although Magda works in New Jersey and I live in Philly, I make the 2-hour trek every month or so for treatment. Believe me when I tell you she is amazing. I've tried other aestheticians in PA and have never seen the results I do when I go to her. I'll follow her anywhere and drive as many hours as I need to so that she can work her magic on me. I've also had her do my makeup and was beyond thrilled with the results. More...

Magda is EXCELLENT at what she does! My family and I have used her for makeup and/or hair for 3 majorly important occasions, and she is fantastic.

For my sister's wedding, we hired her to do the makeup for my sister, my mom, and me (for logistical reasons, bridesmaids' makeup was done at another place where we did all of our hair). She did such a great job; our makeup looked natural, yet beautiful (just like we had requested!) and it lasted all day & night. Magda really knows how to make a bride stand out, and my sister's makeup, especially, was STUNNINGLY gorgeous. I actually wore mine the following day because I was so tired by the time we got back that I forgot to wash my face, and since it still looked perfect in the morning, I kept it on :) So basically, her makeup application lasted from 2 pm on a Saturday until 8 pm on Sunday! I'm prone to getting very shiny, and the fact that this didn't happen is a miracle in my book.

She also did my sister's makeup for another big event in April 2015, and I used her again myself in May 2015 for hair & makeup. We will all definitely be contacting her when the need arises for us to look our best.

She always responds quickly to messages (via text/email/voice), arrives exactly on time, keeps everybody on schedule, pays attention when we describe what we're looking for (and actually delivers it), has a great attitude, is a total professional, prices reasonably, and is all around a pleasure to work with! And I feel that the fact that she comes to you is a bonus and makes everything so much more comfortable. I highly recommend her; you will not be disappointed!

Magda truly knocked it out of the park with my hair and makeup. My wedding was outdoors in a garden and I was going with a romantic, vintage look. I don’t generally wear a lot of makeup, and I have very curly hair that I am reluctant to let anyone else touch. But Magda worked wonders on both fronts. She gave my makeup a soft, natural look that didn’t look overly done but was enough for the photos to pop, and stood up well to the long humid summer day. And my hair was amazing! She loosened my curls in a way that I’d never seen before, pinned them up loosely with a gorgeous swooping side part, and found just the right way to use a beautiful large silk flower that I’d bought in place of a veil. I knew Magda would be great to work with because she did my sister’s wedding, too, and created a fabulous look for me around a bright lipstick that I’d picked out. She’s fun and upbeat and did a wonderful job with my mother and sisters, too. I recommend her highly! More...
