    Loren was fantastic!

    Loren was fantastic! She traveled to our venue and was early so we were able to get started right away. She was also super personable and everyone’s makeup came out fantastic and literally lasted all night. We also did a trial and it was an absolute blast. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for event makeup—from glam to natural, she crushed it.

    Thank you Loren!

    Loren's work for my wedding was amazing! She made sure everyone felt comfortable the day of the wedding and she was so easy to communicate with beforehand. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for professional wedding makeup!

    Natural Glam Expert!

    Loren assisted the make-up artist (Ariel Johnson) I hired for my wedding. It ended up working out perfectly because I met Loren before for her beautiful airbrush spray tans. I cannot say enough about how professional and talented Loren and Ariel were. Loren showed up at 6 am, wide awake, and ready to work! She has the most positive demeanor and she made my bridesmaids look absolutely beautiful! She truly individualized each maid's look and made them look flawless while still maintaining their natural beauty. It was the perfect example of "natural glam." I look forward to returning to Loren for spray tans in the winter months and will be sure to recommend her to any brides I know :)

    Thank you Loren!

    Loren did my make up for my wedding as well as a spray tan. My spray tan came out perfect. Everyone was giving me compliments all weekend. She was so understanding and accommodating for everything! My make up came out absolutely perfect- exactly how I envisioned it. I was nervous because I do not wear a lot of make up and there was no need to worry. While I was getting my make up done I was distracted and a bit stressed and Loren was kind and understanding to help relax me. She did an excellent job on al my girls. Everyone loved their make up! Will continue to use Loren in the future for spray tan and make up needs. Highly recommend! Thanks Loren!

    So sweet and talented!

    Loren did my spray tan for my bridal shower and wedding! She followed up after my first spray tan to make sure I was happy and that I had nothing less than a perfect experience! I was very specific in the color I was aiming for and she was able to custom match the vision I had! She is very caring and will make sure you are satisfied with your tan!

    Great Results

    LOVE the results! I am very pale and was a little nervous about getting a tan for the wedding without looking like a carrot. Loren was great and put my mind at ease. I actually went back two more times soon after. Looking forward to seeing her at the new space!

    Great experience, highly recommend!

    I am very glad that I was able to have my makeup done by Loren for my wedding - she did an excellent job for my mother, mother-in law, aunt, and I! We had a trial at her studio that she was able to schedule when I was visiting Maine (I live out of state). There were a few things that I wanted to adjust, and she made the changes right then to make sure I left the trial with a good understanding of what my look would be day-of.
    The day of the wedding we had a swap in one of the people who had their makeup done, and she was able to adjust easily. My look was very natural, as I am someone who does not wear a lot of makeup on a daily basis, and perfect (and stayed perfect all night)!

    Loren is an absolute superstar! As an Asian bride, I knew it would be a challenge to find a makeup artist who could work magic on all types of faces and features. I had actually booked another makeup artist for my wedding (who had stellar reviews online) but left both my trials feeling quite frustrated; I almost came to accept the fact that I would be unhappy with how I looked on my wedding day. However, I booked a trial with Loren through a recommendation and can't say enough how lucky I am to have found her! She is an absolute perfectionist and figured out all the techniques to make my features shine. Throughout my two trials, whenever I felt hesitant to give feedback, Loren insisted on hearing everything unfiltered so she could hone her craft. From my experience, the wedding industry can be a bit of a seller's market, so it takes a special kind of person to have such passion and integrity about her work. Oh, and beyond her incredible professionalism and makeup wizardry, Loren is just an all-out hilarious, awesome, and calm-under-pressure person to have with you on your wedding day! I really can't recommend her enough!!

    Very passionate about her work. Would highly recommend her, for makeup and tanning

    Loren loves what she does and it shows in her work, Very professional! Takes the time to make you look and feel beautiful. Love the fact that there are no chemicals in tanning product.

    Loren is a true artist and professional. She listened to my requests and I ended up looking exactly how I pictured for my wedding. I like more a natural look and was worried for makeup but I looked like a better version of natural me! She was accommodating and communicative. I am so glad I found her and would refer her a zillion times over!!

    Wedding makeup

    I can’t say enough about Loren! She traveled to the wedding venue for our makeup, which was super convenient! I had a pre-wedding makeup trial (which was included in the wedding package price, a nice added bonus!) and I decided I wanted to make some last-minute changes the day of my wedding. She made the exact changes I was looking for without issue or hesitation! I look back at pictures and I’m still obsessed with how my makeup came out! It stayed all day/night even though I was outside in the rain/snow, no smudging or streaking! My Bridal party’s makeup came out just as stunning, which proves she can handle all diff styles of makeup preferences (some of my bridesmaids preferred minimal/natural looks as compared to my slightly more glam preferences) she was super efficient and even finished ahead of schedule, which is always a plus on a wedding day! Makeup skills aside, she was an absolute saint in helping to keep me calm while everyone else in the room kept coming at me with questions, stress or issues. I very highly recommend Loren and Emerge Makeup Artistry!!

    Loren from Emerge Makeup Artistry was wonderful to work with. I contacted her via her facebook page based on recommendation. She worked with a hairstylist and the two were professional and very knowledgeable. I did two makeup trials. Between the two trials, I had some feedback and asked for more of a softer blushing bride look. Loren had purchased new eye shadow colors and took all my feedback into account. Myself and a couple bridesmaids got airbrush makeup; she also does regular. Loren and I exchanged many emails and she was so sweet and responsive. On my wedding day, she was onsite at Sebasco Harbor Resort where we got married. Loren had a long day of doing bridemaids and my makeup. Everyone was very happy with their makeup. It was perfect to have her onsite! I would highly recommend Emerge Makeup!
