Make-up and Hair

alin & mako · October 16, 2008

Does anyone have any suggestions for someone that can travel around the Riviera Maya and is good with Make-up and Hair?

I'm very interested in this, too. I heard some not so great things about the salon at my resort.

Otherwise, I guess I have to practice doing my own!

I have a number of friends who are make-up artists. One with to the Make-up Designory in L.A.

If you want some names and contact info just send me a message, I'd be happy to share.

Or were you looking for someone actually in the Riviera Maya area?

I was looking for someone in the RM since I can't really afford to fly someone down to do my hair and make up. Thank you though!

Yes, I was looking for someone in the Riviera Maya too.

I was searching this site and found these vendors that people said were good: suzannemorel.com

and my photographer claudia rodriguez recommended this:

alexandromakeup.com

I don't think they are in riviera maya but will travel there...

Both will travel to your hotel room, which is sweet!

Hey girls,

I'm looking for the same thing...Sigh

I just wanted to let you know I e-mailed Suzanne Morel (or whomever ther website e-mail goes to!)...And she says she's in Cabo and doesn't travel to the RM....bummer:-(

The search continues....

Sorry, about that my screw-up!!! Your right Suzanne doesn't travel to Riviera Maya cuz she is in Cabo - my bad...

OOOhhh, and there is an Ultrafemme (utltrafemme.com) which is like a high end Sophera or Macy's makeup store. I emailed them and they have some makeup gura named Guillermo Flores who used to be some big timer for Christian Dior. I contacted ultrafemme through their website contact page and a Diana Gerling got back to me (her email: dsandoval@ultrafemme.com). For this Flores guy to come to my hotel in RM for a trial and the day of just for me it was $500 (I would get a gift package too containing either clinique, estee lauder, lancome, etc)... I asked Diana if I reffered anyone and had someone else use them if us brides can work out a deal?!?!? (ummm, she was hesitant) so if any of ya use them let's see if we can get a refferel program or discount going!!! $500 was a little too much just for myself (that's not even counting my brides maids)... So I got to thinking... (Scary I know) I went to Mac (Maccosmetics.com) and they say they are located in Ultrafemme in Playa Del Carmen... I am in the process of contacting ultrafemme directly in playa del carmen (+52 984 803 4661 I just need to get a phone card -my long distance rates suck) and talking to a makeup artist just from Mac to see if one of them are interested in doing my makeup (kinda like cutting out the middle man - plus that's how I found my makeup artist that does my makeup out where I live)... So I will let ya know...

But I have been in contact with Alexandro (alexandromakeup.com) and I know he does for sure go to RM (well - the iberostar del mar)!!! Like I said before I asked my photographer Claudia Rodriguez and she recommended him - I trust her... And he responded to my email the same day! Unfortunetly, he can't do my hair/makeup that day (May 16) because he is already booked but he will find me a makeup/hairstylist that will fit my style perfectly (or so he said) than send me their portfolio... Let me know if any of ya end up using him or what his prices are (I am waiting for him to find me a stylist before I ask for all that info.) Ohhh, and if ya'll find any other makeup/hairstylist please let me know...

Thanks!!!
