Testimonials
Ellen B. is wonderful, she understands fashion, she helped me interpret my current circumstances and needs to help me have a more fashionable appearance. I went from a totally dated look to professional, appropriate and fashionable makeup. Ellen is a consummate professional she came to our makeover appointment on time, totally prepared in terms of tools, supplies and options for selection of makeover looks and provided me with high level consultation for my skin and makeup which I am eternally grateful for. Ellen you're the best!

Ellen Bodkins is one of the most talented artists that I have had the pleasure of working with. The studio lighting isn't always the most flattering...but Ellen works her magic every day. She is not only an incredible makeup artist, but is specifically very good at giving you exactly what you want....natural, glam, you name, she can do it. No one's easier or more talented to work with...and I feel lucky to have the pleasure.

Hi Ellen,
How are you? I just wanted to send you a quick message, thanking you and Vanessa for everything you did. I haven’t gotten my pictures yet but my makeup and hair looked wonderful on video. I got so many compliments on my look that day that I just wanted to share them with you and say “Thank you soooo much”. I have definitely shared your info with my friends who are “brides to be”…so we may be seeing you in the future=). Hope everything is going well with you.
Take care.

Hi Ellen,
We wanted you to know how much our clients have enjoyed their on-camera looks, which you designed and helped them master. In fact, one of our editors who had sworn off wearing makeup to the office has since changed her mind, and is now showing up to the office dolled-up daily! It’s difficult to find a makeup artist who takes such care in determining a client’s comfort level with makeup, and we really appreciate the level of thoughtfulness you put into all of our editor makeovers.
The results have been fantastic, and every client we’ve sent your way has enjoyed the experience, plus they look better on camera because of it!
Thanks again,

Hey Ellen!
I just wanted to drop you a line to say thanks for the amazing job you did on my makeup for the wedding. It looked amazing and stayed strong all day. Jirell (Photographer) had us all over Brooklyn before the wedding and I barely needed a touch-up when we got to the ceremony. Everyone commented on how amazing I looked and Rafael loved how natural it was.
I cannot thank you enough and I was sure to pass your name and website along to everyone.
Also, me and a couple of the girls will probably be interested in a makeup lesson from you.
Again, I loved you spirit and your style and I'm sure I'll be reading your name in the credits on CNN or BET really soon.
Best Wishes,
Veronica
