"On behalf of my husband and our family, we thank you not only for your services but most specially for your kindness. You're not just a makeup artist for us, you stand as a driver as well during prenup and even wedding day. You're also a helpful friend for us (ikaw ang bumuo ng team natin), you introduced to us Sai for our suit and gown, you requested Meong as videographer and the domino effect follows. We know how generous you are as a friend for Mama and Papa (alam namin na super lugi ka sa offer samin yet hindi mo kami tinipid). We never heard any complaints from you, instead you always offer help. We appreciate everything you do for us. Thank you for assisting and making sure that we always look beautiful. Thank you very much and God Bless you more and more."

Highly Recommended!!!
We booked Ms. Irene way back 2023. Wala pa kaming napipiling Church kasi nga sobrang aga pa for 2025, she agrees and accept right away and we just informed her kung ano ang gustong date and if may mahanap kami agad na Church we will inform her as soon as possible. Napaka ganda lahat ng resulta from myself, groom, parents and entourage. Sobrang asikaso nila, and I have 3 different hairstyles (hotel, church, reception).
Even sa pictorial she assisted us and retouch us ASAP, may makita lang agad na isang tuldok ng pawis asikaso agad. We did a trial make up and I fell inlove instantly on how I look. Last Saturday, March 08, 2025, she really make sure that I look gorgeous from the start to end. Thank you so much Ms. Irene. To more power and blessing!

We booked Ms. Irene 2 years ago when we got engaged. She was very punctual and followed the schedule of the wedding day. She even stayed an extra hours to make sure that retouches were done properly because our early dinner arrived during her retouch session. She was also very caring towards me and my husband's mom because she also gave them free retouching. Her artistry was also very evident and top notch ang skills nya. Couldn't recommend her more as a make up artist.
