    I couldn't speak more highly about Kristin and Ivy and their Beauty Refinery NYC team. They made me and my bridal party look beautiful and our hair and makeup lasted all day long (with no touch ups)!! They are extremely responsive, use quality products and create the look you always envisioned. I highly recommend booking them for your wedding!! You won't regret it!

    Beauty Refinery NYC are truly an amazing team! I’m not traditionally a woman who wears make up and does my hair on a consistent basis. Kristen and her team helped me get comfortable and truly feel beautiful. The girls also managed to get 13 women taken care of and met all their individual taste! Also it should be specially noted that my aunt is recovering from Chemo, is new to wearing a wig and the team went above and beyond to help her feel beautiful for our wedding! Thank you thank you! You cannot go wrong with hiring this team!

    Simply amazing job

    Thank you for an amazing job you did. Kristen was the best! I was able to book them a few weeks before my wedding for a very reasonable price. Kristen was very nice on the phone and at the day they arrived on time and did an amazing job. My makeup lasted all day without even touching it. My hair was exactly what I wanted and also lasted all day. I cannot thank you enough for a wonderful job and making my day beautiful and special!

    Hire them!

    Not only did Kristen and her team make me and my bridesmaids look stunning on the day of my wedding, but Kristen was also the steady calm presence every bride needs on the morning of her big day. Kristen made the entire process start to finish seamless. I would hire her again in a heartbeat!

    I cannot recommend Beauty Refinery enough!! These women were fabulous to work with from start to finish. I knew I picked the right team when during my trial they looked at my amateur skin care routine and gave me customized recommendations. My skin has never looked better since I took their tips. On the wedding day, they did great work. We were ahead of schedule … you heard that right. They were so calm and kind. My girls loved them!! With the extra time, they did touch ups on everyone — even my friends who opted not pay for the service. And don’t get me started on all the free samples and day of essentials. They were so generous. I LOVED how my hair and makeup turned out.

    From the moment Ivy and I talked, I knew that she’s going to create magic. The trial was flawless, the wedding - even better. Ivy and her team were very patient, especially with my very finicky mother. They were the best

    They are absolutely fantastic! I don't usually wear makeup, and I was impressed at the care I received to give me a wedding day look I was comfortable with. Absolutely wonderful! I felt pretty on my special day!

There was a real spa-like feel to the morning that helped everyone relax while getting ready. Everyone was happy with their hair and makeup, and we all looked and felt beautiful. Thank you so so much! Highly recommend!!

    After weeks of searching for stylists who would accommodate services for just a bride, the clouds parted, and I somehow lucked out and found Ivy and Kristen. From the very first consultation call, I knew my bridal look was in great hands. They carefully listened to my meandering ideas and inspiration and offered suggestions I would never have thought of. On my wedding day, I didn't look like "myself but better" - I looked like my best self! I was nervous about being a more mature bride, but working with Kristen and Ivy made me feel like a 20-year-old getting ready with friends! After our first trail, I wanted to make some changes. Without hesitation, they said, "no problem!" and gave me exactly what I didn't know I wanted! The team's final product would have been enough to elicit a 5-star review, but the special little details make me wish I could give 6. From a face massage to eye patches, to a little 'emergency kit' gift, even just having my hair combed made me feel pampered and special! I cannot recommend this team enough for your special day. Or a special event. Or if you just want to get beautified with some great company, Beauty Refinery is a MUST!!!

    The Beauty Refinery NYC did my makeup for my wedding in Lisbon, Portugal. We did trials in Danbury, Connecticut and I just knew I’d feel comfortable with them and that I’d look amazing. Ivys gentle touch soothed my nerves the day of my wedding, she was thorough and knew exactly what I wanted. Throughout the reception she was attentive to any touch ups if any and delivered such a professional performance catering to all my needs. Thank you for an amazing experience and making me look beautiful.

    Highly recommend working with Beauty Refinery! I had to fairly last minute find a HMU team for my bridal party, and Kristen & Ivy were quick and easy to work with when getting everything set up, and the team they sent did an amazing job — everyone was super happy with their hair and makeup, and the artists were super kind, experienced, and great to work with.

    As mother of the bride, this was my first make up ever and Ivy was absolutely amazing!! She was extremely skillful, friendly and sensitive to my needs. I did my own hair, but Kristen did an excellent job the bride and her sister's hair. Thank you!!! You were simply the best!

    We worked with Ivy, Kristen, and Karolina for our bridal hair and makeup (two brides for this wedding) and our family and bridal party and they were all beyond incredible. Ivy and Karolina were so friendly and warm that it was a privilege to share our special day with them and they worked so hard to find what we wanted.

    Ivy and Kristen were professional and kind. They brought with them a great energy that started our days in such a positive way. They were prepared with lighting, seating, and all of the essentials to create beautiful looks. They shared with us the different brands of makeup they loved and listened to our concerns. Thank you both for a fun morning!

    The Best!! Kristen and Cynthia were such a pleasure to work with. Kristen's car literally broke down on a bridge and she still made it to me on time—such a professional. 10/10 would recommend. Thank you!!

    Amazing team and quality work! Our team arrived on time and prepared. They quickly set up and kept our group on time. All of the hairstyles and makeup were gorgeous and held the entire day/evening. The goodie bags with touch up makeup and extras for each person was a nice touch. I would highly recommend this team and the entire Beauty Refinery NYC group.

    HIGHLY recommended!

    Highly recommended this team for both hair and makeup. I appreciated being able to book both services through one service and they did a great job on both beautifying myself and my whole party and keeping the morning calm and peaceful.

    Beauty Refinery is AMAZING!

    Kristen and Ivy were extremely accommodating and flexible with my large party and made us all feel our very best on such a special day. I personally loved Ivy's energy, calmness and how she made me feel like a bride. Kuki did an incredible job and allowed me to feel relaxed despite the many emotions I experienced that day -- I wish he could glam me everyday! I highly recommend BRNY to all brides and bridal parties!

    I hired Ivy for a photo shoot- I’m an actress and needed new headshots. Honestly, she was amazing. She arrived early and was set up and ready to start by our appt time! She made me feel so relaxed and comfortable during the entire process. And she really listened to the look I was going for and ensured that I was happy with the results! It was a fun experience and I really enjoyed her personality and company. She also uses the absolute highest quality makeup and it really makes a huge difference. She made me feel so beautiful for my shoot! I highly recommend!

    The Beauty Refinery Team is THE Best!!

    Nothing but great words for this team! Kristen was so helpful in talking with me about the makeup and hair look I was going for and made sure to try different looks during my trial to ensure we got it exactly right. On the day of the wedding, they were right on schedule and worked their magic to create a beautiful natural look for me. I would recommend them 100 times over and over!

    Make up for a photo shoot!

    Ivy was absolutely wonderful. Super attentive to what I wanted, made me so comfortable and relaxed and did an amazing job! She used top quality makeup- only the best which I really liked. I asked her to give me tips on what she was doing and using so I could know for future reference and she was more than happy to do that for me. She even recommended some awesome products too. I have honestly never felt so beautiful! So glad I used her and will def use her again!!!

    Simply the best!

    I'm so incredibly thrilled we got to work with Ivy and Kristen on my wedding day! From our very first zoom call I just knew this was going to work. They are both so professional and creative and we couldn't be happier with the results. My mother, my sister and I have never looked better!!! We also appreciate all the product recommendations, I think we learned so much from these two. Thanks for making my big day so special!
