Lisa Pelayo: Makeup and Beauty - Houston, Texas

Tim

This review is a bit overdue, but as background I wanted to send my wife for a make up session, but I wanted to ensure two things. Number one: that she was treated kindly with respect and not looked down upon in anyway and number two: that the artist was able to accommodate her subtle, but elegant make up style and not just push bridal / younger glam on her.

I was able to visit with Lisa on the phone and quickly realized that it was a great fit personality wise and so I set up the surprise for my wife for her birthday. She went down there, she’s kind of shy, so that’s why I worried about the other stuff,…but when she came home she was so excited and really seemed to have a great time. Even better than when I’ve sent her for massages and facials in the past, she just was really appreciative and felt special and did not see this gift coming.

I attribute this to Lisa and her adaptable style and her intricate knowledge of make up application, and she even sent my wife home with a detailed face with notes so that she can refer to it if she needs to.

I don’t think my wife needs any make up, but she really was excited about the extra knowledge that she was able to gain from this private and affordable tutorial. She wished she’d had it so much earlier in her life, so do not hesitate to go see Lisa!!!!

If you’re like me and you’re wanting to do something for your wife, especially that she has not done before, this is the place and this is the make up artist. Thank you, Lisa!

Lisa did the make up for my wedding day for myself and my bridal party and she did an excellent job! Everyone looked beautiful and I had so many compliments about how well she did! Definitely recommend!

Lisa has done my makeup three times now and I’ve loved every single look. She knows how to tailor your makeup to suit the occasion. She’s done my makeup for Halloween and for a professional photoshoot. I’ve never had problems with her making me look too overdone or making me look like I didn’t even have my makeup done. She always applies the perfect amount and leaves me looking better than when I came in.

Lisa is AMAZING! She did our spray tans for a wedding - came to our house, set up the tent, and hand sprayed us- best spray tan I’ve had! That Saturday she did our make-up before the wedding and it was fabulous- she does spray makeup, hair, and lashes very well. Will call her again!

If you're looking for a makeup artist who's not just skilled but also understands the importance of enhancing your natural features, I wholeheartedly recommend Lisa Pelayo. She's a true magician who will leave you looking and feeling like the best version of yourself. My experience was nothing short of wonderful from the first time using her many years ago. She is also my go to makeup artist that I recommend to all my photography clients. 10 out of 10 would recommend!

Lisa is one of a kind. It was my lucky day when I found her. She is polite, gorgeous extremely professional and is top notch at her craft. I always look amazing after she does my makeup. Super high quality. Additionally she is so easy to work with and will meet you on location which as a lawyer helps tremendously with my unpredictable schedule. Highly recommend her. Thank you for everything Lisa!

I never write reviews and am extremely particular about my skin and makeup. I hate anything too heavy. Lisa did an amazing job for a 70s themed disco party. She did a modern take on the 70s theme and it looked so cool. It’s probably one of my favorite makeup experiences ever. She was so easy to work with, very professional and so talented. I can’t say enough great things about her. Hire her immediately, you won’t regret it. She brought a partner (Lydia) for hair and she was amazing as well. She even helped out some friends who had a horrible experience with hair at a nearby salon. Overall a great experience and would highly recommend.

It was wonderful having my makeup done in the comfort of my own home for an exciting photo shoot. Lisa is a pleasure to be around and she helped me look and feel my best. She listened to the "natural look" I wanted and it turned out great. Lisa is very knowledgeable and I would highly recommend her to anyone for a special event, photo shoot and a night out on the town! I look forward to having her do my makeup again soon. Thank you, Lisa!
