PRESS PLAY ON EACH OF THESE VIDEO TESTIMONIALS TO FIND OUT HOW MATHIAS4MAKEUP HAS CHANGED THESE WOMEN’S LIVES
" Mathias is a high quality person of exceptional character!! He is a promoter of confidence in self worth. Just his presence and his "others oriented" personality is a huge character builder to those he serves as well as to his peers and colleges. He encourages people rather than stepping on them to get to his goal. The contents of anyone's character says a lot about who they are. I feel thankful that I know Mathias personally!
I have spent a considerable amount of time studying him and listening to him and watching him teach, making sure that everyone he teaches gets the maximum of him that he can give. It's difficult to find someone that's good at what they do plus have a likeable personality and good quality character. Matthias is the whole package not to mention he is awesome to look at:-) and here's the cherry on top of the Matthias cake, he loves his mom and she is one of his beautiful models and one of his biggest fans.
Mathias shows all of us of a certain age how beautiful and Flawless we can look by demonstrating it on his mom Linda. A man who shows off his mom... Need I say more..I think not." CYNTHIA
" I was lucky enough to be invited to a makeover with Mathias thanks to my best friend's Christmas present from her hubby. We scheduled our day together and made the trip to Hollywood. Mathias made us feel right at home immediately. His hospitality is top notch but it was his knowledge on make-up application that was worth the trip. He gave us tips that we could use for day-to-day make-up as well as special events. We were able to purchase some items as well which was very helpful. This was a fun day and meeting Mathias and his helper was just the icing on the cake.
I would definitely recommend Mathias Alan for your make-up needs whether it's for a special event or just a fun day out while learning new tricks."

" I turned 58 this past September and the beautiful woman that had taken tremendous care of her skin from the age of 18 was no longer in my mirror. I had no idea who that was I was seeing in my mirror and the stranger taking my reflection over virtually managed to do so overnight. I just wanted a new face and to get back all the confidence that ugly, old stranger stole from me.
Then I met Mathias via YouTube. I watched his AMAZING video titled "How to do makeup on women over 60 makeup tutorial". I ordered the suggested supplies and makeup. I wrote down the step by step how to instructions and they are now my makeup Bible in my bathroom.
I am SO BACK, BETTER AND WAY more beautiful!!! My confidence has soared and the compliments are coming by boat loads from family, friends and strangers!!! Plus a lot of polite flirtatious smiles from some really good looking men (I'm single)!!!!
Mathias took my just turned 58 sad faced self and made me a Confident and SUPREME woman, hear me roar!!! I walk with my head high and smile at everyone I see with supreme confidence because I KNOW I look beyond great; the best I can be and its all thanks to Mathias!!!. Thank you, Mathias!!! You brought my smiles back!!! "

" If I could give him a 10 I would! I am a Vice President for a Fortune 100 company and needed a few corporate head shots. The results, absolutely incredible! Mathias is the artist/stylist I turn to every time. He really focuses on his clients and works hard with you to ensure the completed result conveys the image you want to project. I have since used him for a number of occasions and he has transformed me to glamorous and to understated and has done it all with grace, humor and a skill level that is absolutely amazing.
He has a way of making you feel like the most important person in the world and works diligently to make the entire experience enjoyable. He is incredibly knowledgeable in his craft and is infinitely patient. I've used the head shots not just internally in my company but outside for corporate events and to advance my career. " - JULIE
" Thank you so much, Mathias! I have been using all of the tips that you gave me during our teaching session in LA.....I'm no longer in a "beauty rut" and I have you to thank for that! As you can see from the before and after photos in the video, make up is a very necessary part of my life. It makes such a difference, but it has to be used properly. You have given me the most objective, complete analysis of what I needed to change as well as what to adopt. I will be forever grateful for the time we spent together.
I have significantly reduced the amount of money I spend on cosmetics because I now know what to use and what to avoid, thanks to you! Seriously, I think we as women need to get as much education as we can on makeup these days. In the last 5-10 years, products and methods have come into everyday use for us ordinary folk, which were previously the sole domain of the MUA, and I think without the appropriate teaching, we are at the mercy of the latest advertising. I really appreciate your honest, sincere opinions as well as such effective, hands on teaching.
I would strongly recommend to everybody who reads this that they do their best to spend as much time as they can, with Mathias on a 1:1 teaching basis.......as far as I know, he's the only MUA with his background who is doing this work! It was a total game changer for me! " - TINA
" Mathias is a beauty genius! I feel so lucky to have had his magic worked on me numerous times and for milestone career moments in my life! Mathias is a genuine and caring person who listens intently and makes you feel so comfortable. He is a true artist and as he puts it, he "paints".
If you ever have the opportunity to work with Mathias... DO IT!" - TANIYA NAYAK Television Host and Personality
" Mathias Alan is such an amazing makeup artist and teacher. His expertise in TV Film and movies translates into helping women of all ages and skin tones . I am 46 years old, and Mathias had the intuitive creativity to take my makeup game to the next level!
You will not be disappointed and his time and knowledge is money well spent!! I can take these tips and truck with me whenever I do my own makeup!
Highly recommend" - JENNIFER JOYCE
" Mathias is the best. It honestly felt like we had known each other for years. He is very knowledgeable about how to work with women of color. I can honestly tell you it was a relief to not look like I was going into a coffin. Too many makeup artist don't understand black skin and make us look dead... Mathias is the BOMB... He taught me how to contour, how to add glitter to any look,and how to truly embrace my beauty and not overly cover it up."
- MARY
" My husband purchased a private makeover with Mathias for me and what a great gift it was! Had a great time at his makeup studio and learned a lot of great tips. I immediately felt comfortable and like we had been friends for years. My only regret is not having done it 20 years ago! I have gotten compliments now on my eye makeup. With his videos you can go back and watch to get refreshers on what to do. Thank you Mathias! " - JANET
" I first came across Mathias on YouTube while browsing for bridal makeup and his channel was FULL of great knowledge so he won me over instantly! I found him on other social media networks and followed him as well to keep up with him and one day on Instagram he posted he would be flying to ATL, GA for a weekend and would be doing a seminar or private 1 on 1's! I live in Mississippi but the drive was NOTHING compared to meeting a pro celebrity makeup artist and doing a class with him!
When I tell you I was so nervous but I had my friend with me and she really helped calm my nerves! To me he is a celebrity in my eyes . We did a 3 hour session and I got MORE than enough tips and tricks PLUS some snacks LOL! He really makes you feel welcome and at ease because man was I a nervous wreck!
Whether you are a beginner in the industry or have years of experience as he does, he doesn't at all make you feel any less of a person! I had so much fun with Mathias and look up to him in many different ways especially just his personality! I hope to one day meet with him again but this time in his hometown!
I would and do recommend him to anyone looking for private class, education, tips, etc. You are AMAZING, Mathias! Much love from JAELEIGH in Mississippi "

" Mathias is a skilled artist and a talented instructor. As a 60+ woman, he helped me with getting my confidence back in applying makeup that makes me feel younger, beautiful and I know secrets of applying that I have never learned with other make-up artists. He is the best by far and I drove from San Diego; it was so worth it !!! Spend time with him, it will change your life! " - DEBORAH
WEDDING MAKEUP AND HAIR CLIENTS
" I met Mathias while getting a makeover for the TLC show called Dare To Wear. From the moment I met him, I felt comfortable & safe. I was nervous before I met him because of course, makeovers are supposed to be extreme & I didn't want to not feel or look like me.
He took the time to ask me about myself, my Hollywood style icons, & what I hoped to get out of my makeover. I ended up donating my hair to a charity, & Mathias gave me an "Old Hollywood" glam look! I had no idea I could look like that!! I almost cried, maybe I did cry, lol, when I saw myself for the first time. Happy tears. He is truly gifted.
He brought me in as a guest on his YouTube channel & taught me all about how to get the look I desire. I love artists who teach you while they work their magic!
Thank you Mathias!!! xoxo" - JESSICA
" Mathias is a magician! I needed a make-up artist for my wedding in April and I was referred to Mathias by my hairstylist friend - she said he was amazing, and she was not exaggerating. When I went to Mathias for the first time - for a trial run - he asked me what I wanted and listened to my answers. We went through "stages" of the make-up, and he asked me at each stage what I thought and how I felt. He is super professional and easy to work with - and super sweet to boot.
At the end of the trial I was stunned by the result! He made me look eye-catching and beautiful without looking overly done. He was even more spectacular on the wedding day - he had done a color chart when he did my trial and had remembered everything about what I liked - I didn't have to say a word! He was super prepared, arrived early and was amazingly QUICK - he did my make up in about 20 minutes and it looked FLAWLESS. He gave me a compact and lipstick, gratis, to help with touch-ups, but my make-up stayed strong all night! And the best part: every one of my friends and guests commented on the make-up and how beautiful I looked - it was that striking.
Thank you again, Mathias! You are amazing and you deserve all the success that is sure to come your way!!! " - BRENNA
" Mathias did my makeup for my wedding two weeks ago - he was very easy to communicate with and was a pure delight the day of - put me at ease. My makeup lasted pretty much the entire day and night - which was a relief. The last thing you remember on your wedding day is to check a mirror and get a touch up.
As I was waiting to go down the aisle.. I slipped holding a glass of wine.... luckily it was white wine! But Mathais jumped into gear and got his blow dryer out to start blowdrying my dress - easy fix! But he did not panic which helped keep me calm.
I'd recommend him again - especially if you want your makeup to last all night. If you can afford to do a run through of the hair and makeup prior to your wedding day.. do it. Especially if you never wear makeup or do your hair fancier. Just so you can get used to the transformation before you're about to walk down the aisle." - BABETTE
" I had 5 hair & make up trials for my wedding, and got stood up by another, before I was blessed with the magic that is Mathias.
He is so fun and easy to work with. He considers everything, from the wedding theme to the bridemaids' dresses to ensure the look is complete. His style and technique are amazing because he gives you that glam look without it being too cakey or overdone. He was even early the morning of the wedding to make sure there weren't any problems, and got to working on my entire bridal party. He made the prepping and glamming such a memorable experience for everyone! With all the chaos that comes with a wedding, Mathias helped make it one less thing for me to stress about. He is super flexible and aims to please!
Wish I could have him live in my guest bedroom so that he could doll me up every morning! If I ever need a make up artist for future events, Mathias will be my go-to! Book him! You won't regret it! " - KALENA
" Mathias made me feel and look beautiful.
Mathias listened to all my hopes and ambitions and then somehow reached into my soul and pulled out the beautiful face I've always felt was inside me. For that night I felt light, open, feminine and completely at ease as a woman.
There are hundreds of people who call themselves makeup artists, but Mathias is one of the few who actually brings an artist's sensibility to bear on his subject. With his perfect bedside manner, he elicits the clues to character that bring radiance to a face. He's not creating a standard mask, but finding the essence of the person and using make up to enhance and illuminate that core humanity. He uses his theatrical and television experience in the most amazingly intimate ways.
After his work you feel more like you than ever before. A better, more confident and gorgeous you." - MONICA
" Mathias is an amazingly talented make up artist. He is simply put the best in LA. I have used him many times and most recently when my hubby and I tied the knot. The photos were breathtaking to say the least. Whether you are getting married or you have photo shoot or you are Media professional you can't do without Mathias. He is also great to work with easy going and always on time. " - CAROLINE
" Mathias is truly an artist when it comes to makeup! He is extremely talented. Mathias arrived promptly to my bridal suite the morning of my wedding and began working his "magic" on my bridal party and myself . There aren't enough words to describe how extremely happy and honored I was to have been able to have Mathias as my makeup artist that day. My makeup did not budge one bit! It looked just as good at the end of the day as it did when he first applied it early that morning. I especially loved the fact that the lip color stayed put all day even after having dinner :o) I received many compliments on how flawless and beautiful I looked the day of my wedding. Thank you Mathias for making me feel beautiful on my special day!!! " - VALERIE
" I would like to take a moment to thank Mathias and provide a helpful review. My 17 year old follows Mathias on all his social media platforms. Prom was fast approaching. She had a particular wish for her special day and she wanted the one and only Mathias to do her hair and makeup. I was put in a compromising situation. I wanted to do anything to make her dream come true, but I felt I was going to let her down. Let her down you might ask? Well Mathias is on TV and does makeup for celebrities. How was I going to pull this one off. I contacted him on his page, and to my surprise, he responded quickly soon after I sent the email. He was not just willing to help create her dream come true, but was humble and down to earth. The best part was that he was affordable as well! I didn't need to have a celebrity's budget. We set a date and time and made our way down to his beauty studio in West Hollywood on prom day. He was very considerate of our time unlike most mall counters or stores. He welcomed, not only her, but her mom, grandmother, and I. Right of the bat he treated all of us like old friends and especially treated Karina like a princes. He paid close attention to her prom dress, her accessories and asked her about the style she was going for. To our surprise, he did her hair and makeup all while shooting a video production of it as well. During the process he explained each product and why he was using it. He even took the time to explain the product and how to use it. I never expected this long time celebrity artist to be so humble, down to earth and informative. He made Karina feel like a celebrity on her special day. It only took a few hours and the finished masterpiece was amazing. She looked breath taking. I could not believe that this was my little girl. She looked like a movie star. She has never looked so flawless and glamorous in her life. She looked like she could be the next Miss America. He brought out her natural beauty highlighting what she already had. He is a true artist that makes his art shine on beautiful canvas. Mathias made her prom special and unforgettable. What you did for her was priceless. I will never be able to repay you for what you did for her that day. Thank you once again from the bottom of my heart! So if you ever want to look like a celebrity and be treated like one as well he is your man. He is a true master at expanding on your natural beauty for you, your daughter, or quite frankly anyone! Don't hesitate to contact him because he is worth every penny. You will not regret it. He will make your dreams come true and make you fell like a true, living beauty queen and celebrity for the night. Be prepared for the red carpet treatment! ;) " - ANTONIO, Proud Father
