I was lucky to have had the opportunity to have Miel beauty do my and my bridal party's make-up. I was unable to do a trial because I was an out of state bride, but felt more than comfortable with her to go ahead and do our make-up the day of the wedding. Her flexibilty also helps calm any pre-wedding stress by traveling to your location so you dont have to rush from a salon to get back in time to get dressed. She also recommended a hair stylist to do our hair, who was also great and did exactlay what I envisioned. Miel Beauty's professionalism, experience, and service made us all feel comfortable and most importantly, beautiful on my wedding day!

Charisse was very quick and professional. She worked with me and everyone in my wedding party until our makeup was perfect and exactly as we wanted. She was flexible and came to our hotel to help us get ready there!

Charisse at Mielbeauty did my spray tan and make-up for my July 2011 wedding. She also did the make-up for all of my bridesmaids, my mom, and my fiance's mom on the morning of the wedding. Throughout the planning process, Charisse was very quick at responding to my inquires and was very flexible with scheduling my make-up and spray tan trials. She was pleasant to work with, a true professional, and delivers a great product! I was so happy that I acted early and was able to book Charisse for my wedding! I'm still getting compliments on how I looked at the wedding and I largely have Charisse to thank!

Charisse did such an amazing job! I recommend her to any bride out there or just anyone who wants their make up done by a pro! She is so sweet and fun to work with.

Charise did a wonderful job! I've never had my make up done before so I was a little nervous, but we did a trial and she was always very quick to respond through email to any of my questions. She did a wonderful job, arrived early the day of and was so sweet. My make up lasted all night and looked wonderful in my pictures!

We all looked absolutely beautiful and our pictures were great! The pinup/cheesecake look made the day fabulous and fun. Having a makeover party at my house was very convenient, too. Bravo!

Charisse is an amazing makeup artist - I have worked in the cosmetics industry for years, and have always been fussy about the makeup that I have done by others (usually means going home to wash off what was done by the artist). This concern definitely applied to wedding makeup, as we've all seen the caked on look, as well as my general concerns being an Asian American woman, with different features than the standard American face. Charisse worked with me at my trial and listened to the look I was hoping to create, played around with the colors until it was just right. We tweaked a little here and there, but got exactly what I had wanted with the first attempt! She is relaxed, listens to what you want, and loves what she does which instantly puts you at ease. She also uses amazing products that feel lightweight, not cakey - I can't tell you how many guests at the wedding complimented me on how great my skin looked! I would recommend Charisse to my closest friends and family, which means I'd recommend her to any bride/woman who wants to look amazing on her special day. Case in point, my friend getting married next year asked Charisse if she is available to travel to Long Island!

Charise was excellent! She was very professional and did a great job with our makeup for our wedding. She traveled to my house and was able to adjust our needs as things happened. I would recommend her to anyone!

Charisse is an absolute pleasure to work with! She came to my house to spray tan me and my girlfriends before my bachelorette party and it was so easy and convenient, plus we all looked great for the trip to the beach. Charisse also did my wedding makeup, as well as my mom's makeup and my entire wedding party. It was a blast to work with Charisse, she had great ideas and knew what looked best on everyone. Our makeup lasted the entire evening and I can honestly say I never felt as beautiful as I did that day!! I highly recommend Mielbeauty for spray tanning and makeup. You just can't go wrong. A+++

Mielbeauty is the best makeup and mobile spray tanning service in Ithaca and surrounding areas. They are professional, accommodating, and a pleasure to work with. I hired Charisse to do my makeup, as well as my bridal party's, for my wedding and couldn't have been more pleased. I am very particular about how I like my makeup done, and was nervous that I would look overly made-up in my pictures. Charisse took the time to really listen to what I wanted, and the end result was perfect. I still get compliments on my makeup when when people look at my wedding photos. She was a joy to work with. She was punctual, got me and all the girls done on time and stayed while the photographer took the pre-wedding shots to assure I was pleased with how I looked in the pictures. I've since referred their services to many friends who have raved about the professionalism and quality of their work. I have also used the mobile spray tanning service on multiple occasions and the only downfall is how addicting it is! The convenience of the service paired with how natural and beautiful my tan looks have made this a staple in my beauty routine! If you're looking for a high quality, high end, affordable and professional beauty service, I would recommend Mielbeauty.
