Makeup By Jacquee

  • Starts at $500
  • Serves Essex, IL

Hi there! I’m Jacquee. I am a licensed esthetician and freelance makeup artist. I was trained in makeup artistry and hair design at Make Up First in Chicago. My esthetics training was completed at the Universal Spa Training Academy in Downers Grove. So now that we’ve got that out of the way let’s talk about what I can help you with! I’m well versed in all areas of makeup from beauty and bridal to commercial, theatrical, and even special effects. I’m just as comfortable working on a film set as I am working with my brides. I enjoy making people feel good about themselves and I put my all into everything I do.

I often tell people that when you get to do what you love, you never feel like you're actually working. I started my journey in Makeup Artistry in 2016 and since then I couldn't imagine doing anything else. My brides and other clients mean the world to me. I want to create an experience that is both personal, exciting, and FUN. It is an absolute honor to get to be a part of your wedding day and I look forward to working with you!

Kate K Beauty was an absolute DREAM to work with. Through every step of the process Katlyn was by my side and communicated quickly and efficiently. It was like my best friend was doing my hair and makeup on my special day. I loved doing a trail beforehand so I got to meet Katlyn and Natalie (hair) ahead of time and visualize the look. They were both so helpful on unifying my vision and open to changes too! I wanted a natural look with a lip color change halfway through the day and they nailed it!! They were on time and handled last minute schedule changes with grace. It was the absolute best way to start my magical day. They helped calm my nerves and sang along with my epic 'getting ready' playlist hahah. I've used Katlyn for multiple events now and each time she makes me look and feel beautiful and like my true authentic self. I cant recommend her enough!

Hi, I'm Danielle, I have been doing makeup for over 20 years! We are traveling, licensed and insured, professional makeup artists servicing Illinois and Indiana with prices starting at $80! Traveling Makeup Artists Specializing in Regular/Airbrushing, Bridal, and FX/Tattoo Coverage Makeup.

I loved how my girls and I looked on the day! Stunning work! However, I would just feel bad for future brides if I didn’t share that you need to be 100% on your timeline and # of people before you book. It is not an advantage to book early with them. Ended up paying about 6 services more than I used because of changes. I added a 4th artist and was totally fine with that fee her making a min of 5 services while keeping pay for all other artists as is, just bit the cost because that makes sense. However, my original contract with the owner had herself doing 5 people. When we added a second artist she was doing 4 but being paid for 5 to honor original contract. When going back to 5 she wanted me to pay again for that person, even though technically she was already being paid for 5 services and she was going to do 5 services…

I used One Salon & Bridal for my wedding day hair and make up for me and 15 others! Everybody at One Salon & Bridal was extremely helpful and communicative!! From day 1, I felt like I was in good hands for my wedding hair and make up. The team was willing to make things work - however I needed them to work! For example, we didn't know at first if we would get ready at the salon or my venue but I was able to talk things out with Michelle and we came up with an action plan to get everybody ready in time! I was able to have a few of our close family members get hair and make up done with us, because the salon had all hands on deck for my wedding day! It was great working with everybody and I am so thankful for how easy they made this process! My hair and make up held up ALL night long and I felt so beautiful!! Thank you all :)

Erin Smith Beauty Creations was a joy to work with for my wedding day glam. Erin's communication style is quick, efficient, and easy-going, which helped keep everything organized leading up to the big day. On the wedding day itself, Erin was a calming presence who helped soothe my nerves. She is highly adaptable and made sure I felt comfortable and like myself in the makeup look she created.

Alexis was absolutely amazing!! She was our hair and makeup artist for my wedding this Saturday and when I say she KILLED it!! Aside from her AMAZING hair and makeup skills… We had a few bumps in the road so my mom and I weren’t able to make it to the venue until after my scheduled time for both hair and makeup. As you can imagine, I was definitely panicking about our ceremony starting in less than two hours from the time of my arrival. When I finally made it, I felt SO much better as I realized that Alexis made sure that all of my bridesmaids were on track as far as hair and makeup while I was gone. She completed my hair and makeup beautifully with time to spare for my mom’s hair and makeup. She even managed to squeeze in another makeup service for one of my guests. I will definitely be recommending her to anyone that I know who may be needing a hair or makeup service. She is absolutely amazing at what she does and she is so SO sweet!! I could not thank her enough for everything she helped with the morning of our wedding

The quality of the hair and make up services provided by Kasha’s team were great! Every bridesmaids, the mother of the bride, and the bride looked outstanding! They did a great job ensuring hair and make up would stay put throughout the day’s festivities. Unfortunately, there was a breakdown in communication and the artists that arrived in the morning of had conflicting schedules, and ultimately fell behind schedule by approximately 30 minutes (even with nearly an hour of catch up and touch up time baked in). When I asked the artists for a revised completion time, they struggled to provide an answer, which required me to make some changes for the next scheduled events. I might recommend touching base with the artists first thing in the morning to make sure everyone’s schedules are aligned.

We were thrilled with the services provided by Big Day by Abbey for our wedding. Abbey was organized, responsive, and a pleasure to work with leading up to the big day. On the wedding morning, she helped make my mother, who has dementia, feel beautiful and confident. Abbey listened attentively to my mom's vision for her hair and makeup and delivered a stunning, age-appropriate look that had my mother beaming with joy the entire day. The extra care and attention Abbey showed my mom meant the world on our special day. My mother looked so radiant, polished and most importantly, like herself. We couldn't recommend Big Day by Abbey more highly for helping create picture perfect wedding looks while also providing compassionate, thoughtful service.

ielle Beauty 

5.0

  • Team of 5
  • Starts at $400
  • Serves Essex, IL

The i·elle beauty team has 10+ years of experience in the bridal industry. It was founded in 2016 by AJ and Danielle as a duo. They now have a partnership with Macy, who is officially a co-owner. Specializing in bridal events, i·elle travels all around the Chicagoland and Nashville area to provide hair and makeup services.

I would absolutely recommend i.elle Beauty for your wedding day needs! They are extremely professional and amazing to work with. Danielle was super thorough from inquiry to the last moments of getting ready on wedding day. She took her time during our trial to fully understand what I was looking for and made sure that the end result was satisfactory. She also went above and beyond past trial to make sure that I was still happy with the results and fully prepared for the big day. I also appreciated the extra steps to make sure that every single person was taken care of and not just the bride! i.elle made sure they understood what my bridesmaids/mothers expected ahead of time and this made for a very smooth process for everyone! I had in total 11 people that used their services and every single person was happy with their result. The i.elle crew was fun, easy to work with, and brought the best vibes to our morning. If you're looking for a talented group and an overall non-stressful process, they are the perfect fit!
