Stella did such an incredible job on making both me, and my mother-in-law look fabulous. She took her time explaining techniques, and demonstrating how to get a flawless look. I would recommend her 1000x over!

I have had the pleasure of using Stella for two weddings. She is not only an amazing makeup artist, but she is very personable and kind. I hired her for my son and daughter’s wedding. Everyone looked amazing and my mom felt that she never looked better. I ???? loved having her at both weddings and continue to buy products from her and have her apply my makeup from time to time. She is the best!

Stella had done the make up for myself and my wedding party beautifully many years ago. When I wanted to update my make up routine, I sought out Stella. She worked within my comfort level, provided helpful suggestions and demonstrated techniques I could replicate on my own. The experience was very relaxed and incredibly helpful. Thank you Stella!

We had an amazing experience working with Stella!! My mom, sister, and I stumbled upon her while shopping at Nordstrom. She had previously worked on two of our friend's wedding. She applied makeup on all three of us, and we all absolutely loved what she did! She listened to exactly what we wanted, and put a lot of thought into what brought out our best features and making it look natural. We were all so pleased with our makeup, it was beautiful! She is also super personable and easy to work with. I'm hoping to use her for makeup at my upcoming wedding!!

Stella Mikhail is one fantastic makeup artist!!! I would recommend her to everyone!! I wanted a professional to help me with my makeup, someone experienced that a celebrity would go to. How do you find a person like that? I went online and found Stella!!(stellairbeauty.com) She worked at the Oprah Winfrey Show for 20 years doing makeup!! That’s exactly what I wanted!! I emailed Stella and found that she is also a travelling makeup artist for Laura Mercier cosmetics. She gave me her schedule and I made an appointment at a department store to meet with her. Stella asked me a few questions about the look I wanted and then began my transformation!! She not only chose the perfect makeup but she explained everything as she went along to be sure I could do it myself!! She is wonderful and you will just love her!!! Thank you, Stella, for everything!!

Stella was a dream!!! I list my eye lashes and eye brows during Chemo and when i look in mirror i never frel like its me anymore. I was referred to Stella for eyelashes and she did my makeup also. I havent felt this good about my looks in a very long time. She listened and did her magic. I am a minimalist and she did not overdo my makeup. Im defiently going to recommend her to all my sisters and friends. Thank you Stella.

I recently met with Stella for my makeup trial for my upcoming wedding. I've heard from several friends how amazing she is, but was truly blown away by her work. I showed Stella my dress, and she immediately knew what would pair well with it, make-up wise. I didn't know exactly what I wanted, so I felt reassured with her artistic ability and expertise. On a personal level, Stella is a very kind and warm person. She has amazing energy and is lovely to work with!

Stella is incredible! She recently did the makeup of my entire bridal party at my wedding - and out of 9 total people, ALL 9 of us felt the best we've ever felt. She knows exactly what looks good on people's skin tone, you can trust her to do the RIGHT amount of make-up, and it stayed flawless throughout the entire night. Not only did she do an incredible job but she is sweet and fun to have around on your big day. My friends will all use her for their weddings (in the future) and I have NEVER seen a bridal party so thrilled about the way their make-up turned out. ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE.

I absolutely love Stella. She has changed my makeup routine for the better. She knows exactly what colors and products work for me and has really helped me to apply my make-up correctly and beautifully. She is so personable and really attempts to get to know her clients. I will definitely have Stella do my makeup (and my families) for any special occasion that we might have in the future. I highly recommend Stella !!!

I got my makeup done by Stella for my Indian/American fusion wedding the weekend of September 26th. All I can say is she did a phenomenal job! She pays attention to every detail and I never looked so beautiful. I looked flawless considering my skin is not flawless. People could not also keep complimenting my 70yr mother who has never gotten her makeup done. Stella has the magic touch! She is also very personable and enjoyable to be around on a crazy wedding day. i highly recommend her for all makeup services!

Stella recently did my make up for my cousin's wedding, in which I was a bridesmaid. I absolutely never wear make up - maybe two or three times a year I'll put on eyeshadow for a wedding or special event. I told Stella this when I sat down in her chair, and she asked me other questions to make sure I felt comfortable with the tone and colors she was going to use for the big day. I was blown away by how beautiful her make up job was - it was elegant, natural, expressive, and highlighted my facial features in ways I had never seen a make up artist do before. My family and friends were commented on it all day, and I felt so appreciative of Stella's incredible skills and kind work approach. She's the best!

Stella is by far the best makeup artist I've ever worked with. She is a head above the rest. Stella, also just did my makeup for my wedding. Prior to the wedding, Stella was extremely easy to work with leading up to the big day. For the wedding she did myself, my mother, family, in laws and extremely large bridal party. She was not only efficient, but her technique is something worth talking about..not to mention her air brushing. I have never received more compliments and my whole wedding day was filled with everyone talking about how much they loved their makeup and how amazing they felt. PLUS, looks beautiful in photos. She also provides great advice and provides great suggestions for makeup whether its colors, palette or a specific technique. I could not have had a better experience and Stella truly is beyond exceptional and has a talent to be reckoned with.

Stella just did my make up for a wedding that I was in and it was an incredible experience. I was initially worried about getting my make up done because I have darker skin and high standards. Often, make up artists don't match my foundation color quite right and I'm left with an ashen look to my face. She picked the perfect foundation color and the right eye makeup which left my skin looking bright and glowing. The best part is that it stayed in place for the entire day. I wish that I could look that great every day. From my darker Jamaican skin to my Mother-in-law's porcelain skin, Stella can do it all!

I absolutely cannot say enough good things about Stella. She did all of the makeup for my wedding as well as for my sisters wedding and I have never loved my makeup as much as I do when she does it. Not only did she do beautiful makeup for the events but she taught me in the process what colors look best on me and I use her recommendations every time I put on my own makeup.

Stella is the most amazing makeup artist. You walk away from her chair looking 10 years younger. Stella is fabulous and she knows how to make you look your best. Furthermore she teaches you the techniques to duplicate what she's done in your everyday life. As a professional I need to look my best everyday and Stella makes sure I do.

Stella is our trusted expert here at harpo studios for celebrities and guests on television. She is an expert at different looks and knows how to work with different skin types and tones. She is known for her professionalism, talent, but also being a pleasure to work with. I asked her for tips for my destination wedding day since I was doing my own makeup and had no idea what I was doing. Not only did she give me tricks of the trade that worked best to make your look pop for pictures, but she also gave me a DIY tutorial that I use for my everyday makeup. She changed the way I do my makeup in the best possible way. Stella is the best of the best in the industry.

Stella Mikhail is an amazing make up artist. I am a wedding planner in Chicago and she does make up for many of my brides & their Bridal Party. They adore her and I continue to recommend her to my clients. She is a pleasure to work with and enjoys what she does (and it shows)!

Stella is an incredibly talented, passionate makeup artist. I have seen Stella for years, and she is the only one I trust to make me look my best and feel confident. Along with photoshoots that I have been in, Stella also did my makeup for my wedding. She always tailors the look, application, and colors on your preference. She also is very open to your feedback... for example, if the liner is 'too dark' she'll happily tone it down. I also like to put my own mascara on, and Stella is fine with that. I have never met a more accommodating, passionate, and hard working artist! Her demeanor and results are the best bar none.
