Gen Reilly Makeup & Hair

I had found Gen via WedMeGood itself. I’m talking to her I got more details about her process and was convinced that she would be the best for the minimalist and natural makeup looks I wanted for my wedding functions at Goa. She was warm, friendly and supportive about what I wanted for my looks. Cut to the wedding day, she delivered exactly that and in time for my sunset varmala. She was a breeze to work with and extremely professional. It takes a lot to get natural makeup right and she just aced it. Keeping the skin real yet hiding the flaws and enhancing the right features - lips and eyes. I always find it hard to style my hair but yet again she literally turned my mood board into reality. I will be forever grateful to Gen for making me feel comfortable and beautiful in my own skin on my Big day. She is one of the best and value for money makeup artists in Goa - do recommend!

She is the best make up artist you can get on your big day if you are really looking for a natural looking makeup yet stunning. She did really good job for glaming me up

Gen is a dream to work with! My entire experience with her has been nothing short of awesome. She did my make up and hair for all 4 events of my wedding. I felt extremely comfortable with Gen through the entire process. She has an excellent team (who worked on my mom and mother in laws make up and hair), she gives good direction and makes sure you are happy with the results of her work. Would 100 % recommend Gen for your big day! Thank you Gen for making this entire experience feel that much more enjoyable:)

Gen was my MUA expert for Sangeet, phere and reception. I wanted to do three completely different looks that naturally complement my face contour. What I loved- 1. Gen is very calm and composed and handled time pressure as well as relatives well, even when we were running late for events 2. She came early and well prepared with all her tools, extension cord etc and I didn’t have to worry about a thing. 3. She pulled off three very different looks that most people appreciated, and even helped me cover up a rather large maangtika that could’ve been disastrous on my face. Saved me with that one. 4. She took care of everything, from the draping to helping with jewellery. It was a one stop solution. 5. Loved her hairdos, especially my wedding bun 6. Technically strong, knows her art 7. Overall, a pleasant experience. What could have been better- 1. Makeup is an art, hence subjective. I personally wanted slightly different eye makeup and said so for two of the looks (I felt my eyes looked very small) but Gen had a different opinion and wanted to follow through with her vision. Since we were pressed for time I couldn’t do much and had to leave for my events feeling less than confident about myself. I really wish that my suggestions had been assimilated, because ultimately it’s about how you feel from within. Looking back at my weddings pictures, Gen and I discussed and I do feel l that my face looks better than I had imagined, but I’m someone who believes in living the moment feeling beautiful more than reliving the memories looking beautiful. That ship has long sailed :) 2. One of the hair extension sets used for my sangeet had a very different colour and texture than mine, and while my original hair curled beautifully, the extension just stuck out like dried grass. After an hour or so of the event starting, it looked very evidently out of place with my natural hair (silky, black and burgundy) and that was a bummer. 3. I am an empath and I could feel the stress between us because of my requests to change the eye look. I feel that on the wedding day any bride should be focusing on being in a great mental space and looking feeling her best rather than worrying about her team. I believe that this would’ve taken the game to the next level. I know that Gen is a strong woman, and honest feedback will only help her grow. I would definitely recommend her to brides looking for a MUA artist who knows what she’s doing and can handle almost any contingency. Thank you Gen, for giving your best at my wedding. I know You have a beautiful heart and your intention was only to give me your best as an artist

Gen was incredible. She is a true professional at her job and did my makeup and hair exactly how I wanted (maybe even better). Something I really appreciated was that she had everything prepared when she came and I didn't need to bring/provide anything. I had developed an allergy around my lip on the day of the wedding and I was extremely worried but Gen handled it like a pro and I looked beautiful at the wedding. So many complimented her work and I thank her for that.

Gen is such a calm composed and lovely artist which is very much required when you are going to be get ready for your big day. It was such a nice decision to opt her as she tried bringing the best and quite subtle look for me. She really have a good taste in skin tone so can be trusted for big occasions look. Thankyou Gen ❤️

Gen did my make up for a pre wedding shoot. she did an amazing job at creating natural looks for each shoot.

Gen did my and my mothers makeup in Goa for my parents’ 25th wedding anniversary celebration. She was quick in her work and kept it natural like we wanted. Her work is great and makes you feel naturally beautiful without making u look cakey.

It was lovely working with Gen. She had thought of different looks for both my functions and executed it superbly. I had told her that one of the functions I wanted to go all out with the makeup and the other I wanted subtle, she ensured it was to my taste. She was calm and patient. Would surely recommend her!
