Faith & Beauty

While planning for my Hawaiian wedding (all the way from Texas!) I found Gemina's information and was giver her recommendation from various vendors. I quickly e-mailed her to check on her availability and pricing. Gemina was always timely in her responses and professional. I found her rates to be extremely reasonable and a great value. We stayed in contact during the intervening period before my wedding and put in place a contract detailing the services to be provided. Gemina was on time and prepared on my wedding day. She did my mother's and my hair and makeup, and we couldn't have been more impressed. She took what we wanted (including pictures) and included a few of her own flares and suggestions to make our makeup and hair fun, natural and exactly what we wanted on my big day. Having Gemina there that morning was fun and relaxing, and her positive, fun attitude put my wedding stress to ease. I highly recommend Gemina for any events. Thank you for such a wonderful job!

I've always admired Gemina's work and thought, if I ever get married I definitely want her to do my makeup! So when I got engaged, I contacted her right away! I really wanted to go with a natural look for my wedding day and she did just that! I couldn't have been any happier with my makeup! She is the sweetest and made the whole bridal party feel comfortable. I would definitely recommend Faith & Beauty services for your special day! I guarantee you'll feel and look exceptionally beautiful!

All of the bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup! The girls with thin hair got volume and the girls with thick hair got tight simple updo's. I loved my side updo! So easy to communicate with Gemina! After our trial run, I aired some concerns with her, and she was so open to suggestions. The final product ended up being that much better! Thank you!

The best!

Wonderful working w/ Gemina - she was incredibly gracious about fitting in my grandma's make-up at the last minute, and extremely flexible when it came to meeting times. Her work is wonderful.

Gemina was wonderful to work with. I was a bit frazzled with planning a destination wedding and she was wonderful at communicating via phone and email. We scheduled a trial when we got to the island and she carefully listened to what I envisioned. The wedding preparation went smoothly. The mothers and flower girls looked lovely and I have never looked better. Thank you, Gemina, Monae and Faith & Beauty for making me look amazing!

Gemina did a great job!

Aloha everyone We had a small beach ceremony on 10/10/10 in the most beautiful beach that I have ever seen, Angels bay at Waimanolo beach. Gemina and her assistant did my hair and my make-up and they did such an amazing job. I could not have been happier with my wedding makeup. I felt like a model in all my pictures, I cannot express how pleased I am with my experience with Gemina. Thank you so much for such a great experience. I really feel that their work made all the difference in the world. I would recommend Gemina again and again. Iris (:

Gemina did such an amazing job for my North Shore wedding! I was a little worried booking hair and make-up for such an important day from a few thousand miles away, but Gemina was very prompt in email response and any questions or concerns I had. They arrived on time at my hotel for our appointment and took less then an hour to do my hair and make-up. I would gladly recommend Faith & Beauty to any bride. Thanks Gemina!

Gemina and her assistant were great! I was a bit scared to find and book Makeup Artist and Hair Dresser for a destination wedding. After picking few, based on reviews and cost combine, I found that Faith & Beauty has also great customer service - they responded to my request super-fast and communication is a MUST for any wedding, especially destination wedding! I have decided to pick trial package as well to make sure I will be getting exactly what I am looking for my wedding. Gemina and her assistant exceeded my expectations! I was intervening giving advices on my hair, but they assure that they know what to do and I was not disappointed! After trial my mom and my friends were stunned with how great the look was and that nothing needed to be changed! At my wedding day on August 20, 2010 I felt like a Million bucks and my husband couldn't take away eyes from me. :) Do not hesitate and just pick Gemina's services! You will not regret it! She will make your day even more special! Many thanks! - My look - http://img830.imageshack.us/img830/2760/dsc0073portrait.jpg

I love Faith and Beauty makeup! Gemina and Sarah were wonderful. They arrived on time and listened to what I wanted. They are very nice and professional. I don't usually wear makeup so I was kind of worried about having way too much makeup on and looking horrible, but Gemina did a great. She was able to make me look and feel wonderful. I would totally recommend Faith and Beauty. You won't regret it.

Very professional and punctual. Would love to do business again.

My wedding was really little, but I still wanted a professional to make me look good! Sarah came to our hotel and did a fantastic job with my hair! I was extremely pleased with her professionalism, kindness, and talent. Coordinating everything with Gemina was a breeze as well! I'm a vendor myself, and I'll definitely be recommending Faith and Beauty to any destination brides I come across!

Gemina's services were great. My five bridesmaids and I were beautified in a timely manner on the day of my wedding. Everyone was extremely pleased with their makeup and hair! Her friendly and genuine personality really made the whole morning stress-free and fun. I highly recommend doing a consultation beforehand, too. Thanks to Gemina, my husband looked at me just as I always imagined when I walked down the aisle. =)

Gemina was a pleasure to work with. she became like family instantly and made me feel very comfortable in a chaotic situation. The makeup and hair was perfect thanks to out previous consultation. She had a lot of patience and worked with me until I was happy and found a look that matched me and still made me feel like myself. I would highly recommend her for your wedding day!

Gemina is an incredibly talented artist and so sweet! I stumbled upon her when she was working at a makeup counter and after she applied my makeup better than anyone before had, I was thrilled to find out she did bridal applications. Honolulu was my second reception (I grew up there but my husband and I got married in Chicago where we currently live), so it was low key. After looking at all our professional pictures, though, I wish Gemina had been around for the big shindig in Chicago! My makeup was so much more flattering and more natural looking than the fancy makeup artist I used in Chicago. Gemina even made my eyes look even (I have a double fold on one eye and no fold on the other)! She did my mom's makeup, too, and we both still talk about how great we felt with Gemina's work :D Gemina is such a pleasure to have around, too, as she is so calm and is the sweetest lady. The morning of the reception, I felt as thought I was just chatting with a girlfriend as she made me look gorgeous. I wish I could have her with me every time I go out on the town!

Returning home to Hawaii from Las Vegas for my wedding aboard the Navatek I was very exciting. Gemina made it even more beautiful with her great work! I was so worried about looking good on my special day. We got together before my big day to pick out the right look and colors. WOW! I was 47yrs then and she managed to achive a great look for me. I was stressed on my big day until Gemina arrived at my hotel room. Her sweet spirit had such a calming effect on me. I am a flight attendant and carry my wedding picture on my lanyard. I get great compliments all the time. In fact it was the only photo I ever took that did not require any touch ups! Gemina is truly a "GEM"!

Gemina and Sarah were right on schedule, from the moment we met, they both made me feel that it is "MY SPECIAL DAY!!" They talked and made me feel at ease, like I have known these ladies for years!! The make up was just amazing, my hair was just fabulous, I couldn't ask for anything more, the look on my husbands face when he saw me was priceless!! thank you ladies : )

Gemina and Sarah did a wonderful job on my makeup and hair for my trial as well as on my wedding day :) If there's anything that doesn't sit completely well with you at the trial, be sure to mention it to Gemina. She truly wants to make you as beautiful as you can be on your special day. I highly recommend Faith & Beauty to any bride. Thanks again ladies!!!

I am so happy I found Faith and Beauty to do my hair and make-up for my wedding. Gemina did a wonderful job and I felt beautiful on my special day. I loved my look and my hair turned out exactly the way I envisioned. They were also very accommodating and worked with my schedule. I recommend Faith and Beauty to every bride!
