Christina Amador Beauty

Oh how I love you! Christina was a dream come true… Even the pickiest bride would agree that she’s so easy to work with and will literally let you change whatever you want from your makeup until you’re happy (not that you will want to change much if anything at all!). She’s truly gifted at what she does and doesn’t need to cake on makeup on your face to make you feel like a Queen. I did the airbrush application and literally felt like I was wearing nothing even though I looked fully done. Booked her the minute I did my trial with her like 10 months before my wedding and I’m so glad I did! Sweetest makeup artist ever

Christina as a makeup artist is a truly talented professional. Christina as a person is an absolute sweetheart and such a pleasure to just be around! She listens to every detail of what you want and helps you add in what you may have forgotten. She can do natural or more dramatic looks and always makes sure you absolutely love the results at the end. The makeup stays fresh and beautiful all day long and looks flawless in photos. Christina’s personality is bubbly and bright and she is able to keep you smiling yet also relaxed and calm. I have used Christina for several events and she is most certainly my go to for any event. She really is THE best!

Christina is the best! Just check out my Unilocal profile pic! My make up was amazing for my wedding and she is the nicest most sweetest person to top it off.

I got married last Friday (3÷27÷15), and Christina was simply amazing. I knew on my wedding day, I did not want to be running around to salons, I wanted to be relaxed at home that morning. From the moment I called her, she was responsive and helpful. She is very professional, yet laid back. She showed up at my house a few minutes early to set up and was ready to go. I felt very at ease with her. She has a great personality and is so easy to talk to. Her work is flawless, and my makeup stayed on the entire day with no touchups, from 11am till midnight. Your wedding day is the one day of your life you should really look and feel like a princess, it is not the day to skimp on this treatment– she is worth every penny!

You are straight up crazy if you use another make up artist and not Christina for your wedding. There are SO many reasons to book now:
1. She is thee most wonderful person and her attitude is infectious. She will keep you laughing, calm and looking gorgeous.
2. She is literally the best in the business. Trust her vision and let her work her magic.
3. She is FAST. She took care of my entire bridal party, myself and the moms in record time. My hair stylist even commented on how fast she was.

5. She is the one vendor you will hear back from right away. She is easily accessible through email and is a breeze to deal with.
I could go on and would love to but you really need to trust this review and go ahead and contact her. She has a website

Christina is a fantastic makeup artist, and I’m so glad I found her to do my wedding makeup and my bridesmaids’ makeup! Right now, I can’t remember if it was on the Knot or Wedding Wire, but I am so ridiculously happy with how our makeup turned out.
I definitely wanted a certain look – very retro, 1950s/​1960s makeup. Red lips, big lashes, etc. Yet that kind of look could easily be overdone. I didn’t want to wind up looking like a clown on my wedding day, but I had my heart set on that old time feel. At my trial, I told Christina what I wanted, and she delivered. I knew I wanted her for my wedding. Now, I’m not a vain person, but I’ll tell you, on my wedding day I looked stunning! She did such a good job! And my bridesmaids looked gorgeous too – I had 6 very different bridesmaids, with different skin tones, different hair color, and different personalities. Every one of them, from the outspoken extrovert to the quietest introvert, said she was very happy with how her makeup turned out.
Not only is Christina a fantastic artist, but she is a genuinely sweet and kind person. From trial to wedding, she made all of my bridesmaids and me feel comfortable. She accommodated my bridesmaids’ requests and told us that if we wanted her to change anything she would. I felt comfortable enough with her that if I had wanted something different, I know I could have told her without hesitation. (My makeup was so great, I didn’t want anything changed, but one of my bridesmaids who wasn’t very used to makeup wanted less coloring on her eyebrows, and Christina was so gracious in changing the coloring to suit her).
Lastly, Christina is reliable! She’s super accessible by email which is how I made all arrangements with her and did all of our contracting. She made sure we would be able to be in contact on the day of the wedding via cell. And lastly, I got married on Friday, January 3, 2014. That was the day right after a huge blizzard hit Long Island. That didn’t stop her from being on time at the venue, ready to do our makeup with a smile on her face. She’s great. I really can’t say enough good things about Christina and I would highly recommend her to any friend considering hiring a makeup artist in the area.

Christina is amazing! I had a trial with her in September and she did my wedding makeup (and my bridesmaids) in February.
When she showed up at my apartment in September, armed with 2 cases of makeup, she knew exactly what I wanted when all that I said was that I wanted to «look like me, but polished.» She is the only person to ever do my makeup and get that — my freckles weren’t hidden. She used natural colors and I loved it.
Truth be told, I was nervous having my trial 4.5 months in advance. I took pictures of myself from all angles just in case.
Well, my wedding day came and Christina, bless her, showed up at my hotel room at 6AM. In Brooklyn. The weekend of the blizzard.
She got started with my bridesmaids and made them look gorgeous. They still can’t stop talking about how great her work was. When she did my face, I didn’t have to reference my pictures at all. She remembered how I wanted to look. She did an amazing job with my face. The edges were seamless so I had no «makeup mask» going on. My freckles show up in my pictures. She even used my own lip color (in fact, she even gave one of my bridesmaids the lipstick she had used on her).
My face looked great all day long. Even when we ended the afterparty at 10pm.
I cannot recommend Christina enough. If I ever need makeup done again, I will be sure to give her a call.

It’s hard to put into words how beautiful, amazing and special Christina Amador is and the role she played at my wedding. I did 2 trials with Christina and had her ALL day on my wedding day from 8:30AM-12:00AM. She did my bridesmaids makeup and my mom’s makeup as well as mine. I wanted to wear red lipstick and to be picture perfect all day. Although the airbrush stayed on perfect, (even into the next day) I felt like a celebrity having Christina touch me up all through the day. Everyone commented on what a beautiful bridal party I had and how beautiful I looked. I know every bride is told they are beautiful, but the truth is, every bride is not beautiful. I glowed, radiated and emanated joy and happiness on my wedding day. Because of Christina, I looked fantastic in all my pictures. If you are on a tight budget, like we were, you may look at Christina’s prices and tell yourself you could just do your own makeup or have a friend do it. You will probably majorly regret that decision. She is worth every penny. In fact, I believe she could easily charge 10x what she charges and strictly do celebs. I’m beyond grateful to have discovered Christina Amador. She has such a fun, cheerful, likable. friendly, genuine attitude and personality. She is also very punctual, a fast communicator and professional. She’ll make sure you like how you look, and if you don’t, she will change it until you are happy. She’ll make you happy and beautiful no matter what. It’s clear that she does what she loves and brings that + energy. As a fellow entrepreneur and business person, I am often appalled at how poorly I am treated as a customer. Unless you have self-​esteem issues and are never happy with the way you look or are some crazy, ridiculous bridezilla, you are guaranteed to love your makeup and feel and look gorgeous on your wedding day. Her work speaks for itself. You can see plenty of before and after pictures of brides and brides to be on Christina Amador Beauty’s FaceBook Page.

Christina is an extraordinary person to work with and such a talented make-​up artist! I had the opportunity to use her for two important occasions in my life, she listened to exactly what I wanted and she made it happen! It was a pleasure from the very beginning. Christina stays in touch and makes sure you are both on the same page with what is in mind before even starting the process. She even will travel to your desired location and bring out your best features and natural beauty. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone that wants a very professional atmosphere as well as professional results. You will turn heads at your next event!

It makes me sad that I can only give Christina a 5 star rating – I wish Unilocal gave me the option of giving a million stars because that is what I would rate Christina Amador!!! I found Christina through a groupon for a 1 ½ hour makeup lesson. My brother was getting married in May-​I was going to be a bridesmaid and my mom was of course the mother of the groom-​so we were looking for someone to do our makeup for the day of the wedding. So when I saw the groupon, I did a little research, viewed Christina’s website, and saw she did weddings plus other makeup services. Also, since I love makeup and my mom needs some help in that area, I figured a makeup lesson for us both would be nice. So I purchased a groupon for myself and one for my mom and set up the appointments with Christina. Getting in touch with her was super easy, she returned my call within 24hrs, and she was very accommodating when setting up the appointment time. So when the day came for me and my mom’s appointments, we were very excited. Needless to say, Christina did not disappoint!!! Christina is beautiful and sweet and extremely talented!!! Christina arrived at my apartment armed with a suite case of makeup and my mom and I got to spend 3 hours laughing and enjoying Christina’s company while she expertly applied make up to our faces. My mom and I decided to do trial applications for possible makeup looks for my brother’s wedding and I also brought out a lot of my own makeup so that I could ask Christina questions about techniques and tips on applying different eyeshadows and creating different looks. At the end of the 3 hours, my mom and I couldn’t believe how beautiful Christina had made us! We knew instantly that we had to have her for my brother’s wedding day. Even though my brother’s wedding was 2 months away at the time, Christina already had an appointment booked for that day that was threatening to interfere with her doing our makeup for the wedding. But Christina could see how important my brother’s wedding was to us and how disappointed we were going to be if she couldn’t do our makeup, so she promised to try and work the timing out. And she did! She was able to shift the timing around a little bit so that she could be there for me and my mom and still accommodate her other appointment.
The day of the wedding, Christina was of course her wonderful, amazing self! She arrived at my mother’s hotel room early and was armed with her suite case of makeup ready to make us beautiful. In a short amount of time Christina managed to make me, my mother, my cousin who was also a bridesmaid, and my aunt look absolutely gorgeous! Christina made my mother (the mother of the groom) look stunning. All night, friends and family and even wedding guests I didn’t know made a point of coming up to me to compliment me specifically on how beautiful my makeup looked and to say how stunning my mother looked. The whole wedding day and evening was perfect and Christina had a huge part in making that happen for me and my mother.
I tell everyone I know, every opportunity I get, about Christina! If someone even mentions the suggestion of a wedding or a possible event that they or someone they know may need makeup done for, I recommend Christina! Christina really is extremely talented, completely professional, and does beautiful, beautiful work. I would recommend her with the highest regard to anyone. I hope that I get married soon so that I can have Christina there on my wedding day!
