Coming from Washington DC, I was very anxious to find the perfect Makeup Artist who will give me the effortless look I was aiming for.
Francine was recommended to me by my (wedding) hairstylist who also provided a list of five other makeup artists. However, I knew once viewing Francine's website and IG page that I wanted her to do my makeup. She has a way to bring out your natural beauty without the heavy caked on look which I don't care too much for.
What makes her stand out is that she wanted to get to know me and bring out my personality in her work. I believe by doing so, it brings out your natural beauty.
In addition to her stellar work, Francine is the ultimate professional. Whether it was through our initial call, text messages or emails, Francine relieved my anxiety and answered any questions I had.
She provided recommendations on what colors would work well with my skin tone, dress and style.
I am extremely happy with how my wedding makeup turned out and I wholeheartedly recommend Francine for your wedding, formal event or any other services she can provide to you.

"I am very very happy, thanks a lot.
It’s great, I have the impression of looking fresh and be in great shape and that’s exactly what I needed.
Thanks a lot Francine, you’re really good !

Francine was so wonderful to work with.
From the beginning when we first were in contact she was very sweet, through, and completely passionate about making me feel beautiful in preparation for my wedding day. I live in Los Angeles and so you can imagine it was not easy, but she made everything happen.
Her talents are undeniably good. I mean it.
The day of the wedding she guided me in my skincare routine along with tips to make me glow. I loved the moment when she asked me if I wanted a touch up on my red lips and she already had everything in her bag. It was those moments where I felt I was lucky to have her.
She is the sweetest, caring, and a blessing to have worked with. She went beyond her duties as an artist. My family and I felt that she was like family.
Happy to recommend her to anyone!

From the first messages (emails and WhatsApp because I organized everything with her from Hong Kong !) to the makeup preview in Paris and on the Wedding day. She listened to me and gave me advice.
The makeup was perfect and stayed on the whole day despite the heatwave.
In addition to that, she also did the makeup of my maids of honor, my mother and my grand-mother.
We all felt gorgeous and our skin was perfect for the pictures! :)

She successfully handled the challenge of enhance my features and my mom's. Alight and natural makeup because I am not a huge fan of makeup in my Everyday life… even though I am more and more interested in it now and cannot wait to have my 1-1 class with Francine. Who would have thought this would happen ?
Francine was available and flexible. She studied my face features through an analysis so that she could highlight my main assets.
Cool, calm and collected at every minute, she helped create a peaceful atmosphere during the getting ready and despite the fact that everyone aroud was all over the place !
I recommand her 100% for brides who are looking for fineness and not an heavy makeup.
Thanks again Francine !!!

I was visiting Paris from the United States and hired Francine to come to my hotel and do my makeup before a photo shoot. She was very professional and responsive from our first conversation over the phone, to multiple text messages and meeting in person.
Her English is excellent and I felt very comfortable and relaxed communicating with her.
Francine was so careful to spend as much time as needed to get my make up just right for a beautiful natural look which photographed extremely well.
I am so glad I chose Francine and would recommend her to anyone visiting Paris.

When the French magazine Marie-Claire proposed me to be featured to present my brand, By Morénikè, it was just obvious that I was going to book Francine.
The elegance of her work, her professionalism, her passion and listening is what set us apart.
She enhanced all the models beautiful features, 6 persons in total, for a Professional and natural finish, but above all she listened and made this a relaxing and well-being moment.
Thanks to Francine, her work made a real difference.

Thank you so much for the "makeover".
I do believe people were looking at me differently…OK… no one asked for my autograph and there were no paparazzi around but I am sure my new look was noticed and I feel great.
