“Beauty turned ugly!”

My daughter thought she found a legit Cosmetologist and Makeup Artist from weddingwire.com only to find out Camille is a fraud. She does not hold a license to practice in the state of Illinois (we checked with the Illinois Department of Professional Regulation after the fact). My daughter hired Camille to do air-brush makeup and hair for her wedding. Several girls in the wedding party went to her supposed shop on a Sunday prior to the wedding, which was closed by the way (red light?), and she did a fine enough job that my daughter hired her. However, at the wedding Camille brought someone else to do the makeup who did NOT use an airbrush. The makeup looked caked on! Camille gave us the lame excuse the airbrush broke. She was also an hour late, making the future bride a nervous wreck b/c her makeup was done last! She is now under investigation by several agencies like the IRS (because she only accepts ca$h) & the Illinois Department of Professional Regulation just to mention a few. Camille has also been taken off several wedding sites because we submitted honest reviews they actually investigated unlike weddingwire.com (see my review on them). Camille's partner frantically collected the cash as soon as the makeup was done as if she feared we wouldn't want to pay her! And she was right we didn't but did so not to upset the bride on her special day. Save yourself the heartache and pay the extra $$$ and find someone who is not an IMPOSTER. Your wedding day is too special! God bless.

Camille does awesome airbrush she really does thats why we hired her. When she came to do the bridal party the airbrush machine was broke so she did it by hand so if she says she will airbrush you make sure to ask if the machine is working that day or a few days before by hand it was a disaster. Camille was to do my family's makeup for my sisters wedding she was supposed to air brush us and that day her machine didn't work. She brought an assistant to do hair but the assistant did our make up because Camille was running behind because she was late. She did my sisters makeup by hand it was an August wedding the hottest day it melted off she caked the makeup on and within 1/2 hour she was melting. We had to touch up her up within 1/2 hour to not look shiny. I was so displeased we were to be airbrushed and she didn't and pushed us off on her assistant because she was running behind.Her assistant didn't know what she was doing and many of us had to go fix it ourselves and fix what we can. She offered another service of cosmetic tattooing I agreed I wanted my eyebrows tattooed in. I made by appt when she gave me a different address then her business address I was confused as it was her apartment she did the service out of this time. I showed up and I had to sit in a chair by a tiny desk she pulls out a tattoo machine and explained what she would do. When half way done she tells me to look and see if it is what I wanted I went to the bathroom to the mirror I was mortified it was uneven and not the color we were looking for I cried. I was told to come back so she can fix it :( it was thick and uneven and not in the right placement that it should be so I didn't return asked for my refund for another place to fix. She refused I asked for her license # to report her to the IDPR she wouldn't give it to me so I looked her up she is not in their system.
