Jean Folchi Makeup Artistry

Jean is amazing! She is so friendly and professional. She immediately puts you at ease in her chair while she makes you absolutely beautiful. She in an expert at playing up your features. When I looked in the mirror it was me but the best me I could be! My photos turned out amazing because of it. I highly recommend Jean to anyone and have already passed her name onto several friends. I will also be using her for my future events.

We used Jean for my daughter's recent wedding when she did the makeup for the bride, all of the bridesmaids, the mother of the groom and me. She is wonderful to work with and did an outstanding job on everyone. Her airbrush technique provides a flawless finish that stays put throughout the entire evening, and looks amazing in photographs! Jean and her assistant traveled to our house on the morning of the wedding and provided each member of the wedding party with an individualized look. Both were highly professional but, at the same time, a lot of fun and very easygoing! Everyone had a great time during the makeup process and all of us looked terrific! Jean is the best!

Jean and her assistant were both wonderful. I couldn't have asked for better makeup artists on my wedding day. They had a lot of ladies to get through and even had to touch-up my sister after we found out she was allergic to a particular plant in the house! But they got everyone ready in record time and off to get pictures done on time before the ceremony. 5 stars for sure! I will be recommending her services to everyone I know :)

I could not have been happier with Jean's service for all of my wedding needs. She provided makeup for my engagement photos and on the wedding day for myself and entire bridal party (which was met with rave reviews by all). Aside from being an amazing talent, she is a wonderful listener and extremely fun to be around. I could not have imagined a better personality to work with. I really felt that she cared about my wants & needs while also giving me good direction whenever I had questions. She even was able to come back to provide touch-ups on my wedding day despite having to work her schedule around it, and I could not have been happier on the day where it counted most. I would recommend Jean to anyone with full confidence that she will provide an amazing service, and I plan to continue to use her whenever I can in the future!!

Jean was so great to work with. We had nine bridesmaids and the bride all getting make-up done by Jean. She was able to get ALL the make-up done so everyone was beautiful and ready for the wedding. She had an assistant with her to help with everyone. Very professional!!

Jean did an AMAZING job on my bridal make-up!!! She was completely professional and put me at ease on my wedding day. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to her! I would highly recommend Jean Folchi!!!

Jean was so easy and fun to work with during our trial run and most of all on my actual wedding day. She kept me at ease and feeling great. Her makeup skills are amazing and our Moms and all of my bridesmaids looked absolutely gorgeous. My makeup felt natural and looked great on camera! I was thrilled with Jean and would highly recommend her!

I truly can't recommend Jean enough if you're looking for someone to make you look and feel beautiful on your big day. As someone who rarely wears makeup, I was very worried about my wedding day look, but Jean nailed it. I looked elegant but still looked like me. Not only is she an exceptional talent, but her sense of humor is fabulous. You'll be laughing so hard, you'll totally forget any jitters you had!

I got married on 01/01/2011, but since my wedding was on New Year’s Day (Holiday), I had difficulties finding someone who was willing to work with me on price and location for my make-up. All of the salons that I had called were going to be closed on that day and the prices that they quoted for on-site application were ridiculous!!! I had a list of things that I really wanted for my big day, but time was flying by and it seemed as if I would be lucky to find anyone who could help me. I wanted Airbrush application, false eyelashes, someone who would travel on-site, a full trial-run to get the exact look for my wedding day, reasonable prices, and someone who was professional yet very personable to make the day enjoyable. I started asking around at work for referrals and a co-worker referred me to the person who had done her wedding make-up a year ago, Jean Folchi. She said that Jean was great so I decided to give her a call. I was very concerned about coverage because I have extremely severe sun damage from not wearing sun screen in my teens and early 20's. My skin is uneven and I have discolored brown spots. I specifically wanted someone who could provide the flawless coverage that I wanted and I preferred that it was airbrush application. When I called Jean I knew immediately before even meeting her that she was going to be PERFECT. After we confirmed her availability for my wedding date/time, she wanted to know every detail about what I wanted for my wedding. She wanted to know how I envisioned my big day and what look I was going for. She asked me to bring pictures of things that I liked and things that I wanted to try as well as photos of my dress, my hair, my jewelry, and any other accessories so that we could put the final look together. Jean was AMAZING and her prices were unbelievably reasonable!!! She agreed to do my make-up and my bridal party’s make-up and she would also travel to the location for my wedding to do our make-up on site. We set up a trial run and I was finally able to relax and stop stressing about my make-up. I had a full trial-run where Jean did an entire application based on what I told her I wanted. We played with different looks and different colors until I was 110% set on how I wanted my make-up for the Big Day! On the day of my wedding, Jean arrived early (which I LOVED) and she was ready to go. She was so much fun and unbelievably comforting as my plunge down the aisle drew nearer and the nerves grew. There was a lot of commotion while I was getting ready because everyone in the bridal party and my family and friends and the camera crew were all going in and out of the room. Jean could tell that I was really starting to get nervous and on the verge of a meltdown when there were over 20 people in my hotel room at one point. Jean reminded me to keep breathing and asked me if it would be okay to close and lock the door until I was finished with hair and makeup. No one else even seemed to care about the chaos that was going on, but Jean could tell just by reading my face and she was the ONLY person who took control of the situation and helped me relax. If she hadn’t been there, I honestly can say that I would have been a wreck. Not only was my wedding make-up FABULOUS, but Jean was there for me as a FRIEND throughout the entire process and I cannot thank her enough for that. I will only get married once and I wanted my wedding day to be perfect. Before my wedding, I would always wonder how everything would turn out. I would try to picture the look on my husband’s face when he would see me for the first time coming down the aisle, but never in a million years could I have imagined how blown away he would be. The look on his face is something that I will NEVER EVER forget and I have Jean Folchi to thank for that. When our wedding and reception ended, all of the sudden I found myself getting really upset and emotional. When my husband asked why, I realized that it was because after months and months of planning and anticipation, it was finally over. I didn’t want to wash off my make-up or take down my hair and take off my dress because that was confirmation that it was really over. I knew at that moment that for the rest of my life, I would never feel as beautiful as I did on my Wedding Day!!! Thank you Jean for making my wedding the most memorable day of my life thus far and anyone who is trying to decide on your wedding make-up, stop stressing and worrying about it and CALL JEAN FOLCHI.

My daughter lives out of town and so her trips to plan the wedding were filled with places to go and people to meet with. Jean was excellent at working with us in scheduling the trial make-up session and helping us get what we needed. The wedding make-up was awesome. The bride looked absolutely fabulous and everyone commented on how beautiful she was ( and very natural looking). The brides maids and mother of the bride all had make-up done by Jean and looked beautiful as well. Jean came to the hotel to do the make-up and scheduled her time so no one felt rushed. I would recommend Jean in a heartbeat!

Jean was the only makeup artist I tried (and picked her because I liked the sample pictures on her website) and loved how everyone’s makeup turned out! I was very confident from the trial b/c I just loved how everything looked but then she did a trial for my mom and I was even more convinced. Also, she gave me the details on all of the colors she used during the trial so I could have makeup for touchups if needed (which they weren’t although might have been helpful for a summer bride). Would definitely recommend her!

My mom, sister (maid of honor), and I all got our make-up done by Jean for my wedding. Jean did a wonderful job and our make-up looked amazing! Gotta love the air-brush. It felt so light, looked amazing in pictures, and stayed on all day. She even corrected a slight tan line! Jean was also very flexible and really accomodating. My wedding was early, at 11am, so Jean actually woke up at 4am to get to my hotel on time. Like most brides, I was super nervous that morning. Jean was so comforting, always talking to me to keep my mind occupied and even offered a few remedies. She had great advice too! Jean was absolutely amazing and I 100% recommend her to all brides in the area. Thanks for everything Jean!

Jean did an amazing job on my makeup, 3 bridesmaids and 1 mother of the bride. She usues airbrush which not a lot in the area can do and it feels flawless. It stays forever and looks and feels great. I would recommend her to everyone. She has a great personality and is very fun to work with. She will also gauge your skin type at your trial and recommend products that will help your skin.

Jean is a true professional -- she stays on schedule, is very patient and has the biggest heart. She helped calm my pre wedding jitters and made all of us girls feel like princesses. Her work is flawless and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a make-up artist, she was an absolute dream to work with. Thanks Jean!

Jean did my makeup and all my bridesmaids make up for my wedding this October. She was so much fun to work with, so easy to contact, and we looked AMAZING on the big day! At my trial, she was so interested in all the details of the wedding, what kind of makeup I like, how I wanted certain things. Even after the trial she followed up to see how the makeup wore that day, if I wanted to change anything, etc etc. ALSO, she recommended some moisturizing products to start using so my skin would look flawless on the day of, and I still use those products today! I will be recommending her to anyone I know that is getting married, because she is AWESOME!!!

Makeup is always a concern for a bride, you want everyone to be pretty but natural. Jean is the best you could ever ask for. She is professional and fun. Jean makes your day better because she is so much fun while appling the prettiest makeup you could ask for. She takes her time while staying on time. She makes sure she knows how many people she is doing and keeps right on schedule. I had 9 girls in my wedding. She was willing to get up and be at my house at 6:30 am to start girls, while living about an hour away!! And yes the makeup was great until the end of the night. Definately get a trial run and book Jean Folchi for your wedding!!!! Also, her husband owns Folchi's Formal Wear for the tuxes, go there too, we did and they were fantastic, a great family to work with!! They feel like friends when we just met them.

Beautiful wedding party Jean arrived at our home at 6am with a smile and ready to get started! We had 9 bridesmaids plus the bride to have their makeup done by noon. It was very relaxing and less stress to be able to be at home and have Jean come to us. Jean worked with each of the girls and even threw a few tips at the MOB (me) along the way. She was fun and stayed on a strict schedual to ensure everyone was ready and on time. The girls were all very happy with the makeup and still looked gorgeous at midnight. Wish we could share pictures. Great job, Jean.

Jean did an amazing job with my entire bridal parties make up! She had a lot of people to work with, but took her time on everyone, was so fun to work with, and got everyone out the door on time. I think Jean and Jen Nally work great together and you could not ask for a better personality to get you through what could be a stressful day! I'd recommend her to anyone!

Jean is absolutely amazing! She did a wonderful job of getting me the look that I envisioned for my wedding and then making it ten times better! She is sweet, professional and above all else does an amazing job. She was flexible and worked with me to fit into our schedules in order to squueze me in at the last minute without any compromose of quality. The dry run application before the weding was fun and took out any stress about what my makeup would look like the day of the wedding. I highly recommend her to anyone without any reservations!

Jean did an amazing job for my sister's wedding and was great to work with. My sister (the bride) and I had never had airbrushed foundation or false lashes, and generally don't wear a lot of makeup- so, it was very important to us to have a natural look that we felt comfortable yet glamorous in. Jean was right on target with the palettes she chose, and the products themselves felt great on. Our makeup looked beautiful the whole day and barely needed touch-ups aside from lipstick! Thanks Jean for all that you did and helping make my sister's special day amazing!
