Howard is an extremely talented, calm professional. I have had the
pleasure of working with her not only with models on fashion shoots,
but Birmingham Weekly's annual Women's Issue as well.
She really knows how to bring out the best in each face she does- a true artist!

Jefferson County, AL
(Former WBRC FOX-6 TV News Anchor)"I use to dread taking promotional pictures while working on local television. No one could ever get my makeup to look natural.
When the station hired Jestina, my entire look changed. She knew exactly what to do.
With her touch, my makeup was flawless! For the first time my promotional pictures were exceptional. She is the best!"
"Jestina
and I have worked on several projects together, but most importantly my
wedding! She made me look like a porcelain doll!
I love how she can take a canvas and make something amazingly beautiful!
Her
expertise, professionalism, creativity, personality, passion and good
heart for people is immeasurable- off the chart! I will continue to
refer EVERYONE to her!"

"Jestina
Howard is a true artist in every sense of the word. She recently
applied my wedding day makeup and I was absolutely thrilled with the
results.
Her talent and eye for bringing out on's features is truly
amazing! Not only were the results beyond my expectations, but just
spending the time with her while she applied my makeup was incredibly
relaxing. Her extraordinary talent, calm demeanor, and kind spirit
helped me feel calm, confident and very pampered before walking down
the aisle.
I felt like a princess and a movie star all at the same time!
Jestina's services should be one glamourous "must have"? on every bride's wedding day list."?

"I
can honestly say that I have worked with makeup artists all over the
country and Jestina stands right up there with the best and the
brightest.
She knows how to bring out the best in people and is

Art Director
Birmingham Magazine"Birmingham
Magazine counts on Jestina as a crucial creative source. Whether it's
sharing fashion and makeup trends with us or putting that "just right"?
face on our models at photo shoots, I always know that she will come
prepared with everything we need- including a special sense of style
and professionalism.
The bonus is that Jestina is also completely awesome and fun to work with.
When
she's working on my team I know even a long day will be enjoyable and
that everyone will be beautiful when they get up from her chair."
."Every
experience I've had with Jestina has been a positive one. She's always
willing to go above and beyond makeup, hair and styling. She'll lend a
hand during a shoot moving equipment or acting as another pair of eyes
when setting up a shot. She'll even be an extra in the video if asked!
She's flexible with her time which is a huge asset when shooting
schedules or locations change unexpectedly or are planned with short
notice. I can always count on Jestina to do a beautiful job on
everyone. She brings professionalism and a positive attitude to the
set, which makes it fun. Jestina is a true talent and asset to have on
any production crew."
Jennifer Price
Voice-Over Talent/Model/Actress"When
I'm booked on a job, the first thing I usually ask is "will there be a
make-up artist?"? vain as it may be.... When I find out that the
make-up artist is THE Jestina Howard- I KNOW I will not only be looking
my best, but feeling extremely confident in my delivery of script...
and having that confidence makes my job so much easier! No matter how
early a shoot or what I may have been doing the night before (morning
puffy eyes DON'T LIE) ... I KNOW Jestina will be able to transform me
to an on-camera talent with the most amazing, fresh, clean look... her
work, her make-up artistry- is quite simply MAGICAL!"
Marjorie “The Main Dish”
WAPI 1070 AM Radio Personality"Jestina
and her make up line have changed my life. I will never leave my house
again without mascara on because it makes a girl look awake, which is a
generally desirable look for me. Jestina taught me the secrets of eye
liner, what colors to use and where to place it. I always wondered
about that and now I know. Aware Cosmetics are reasonably priced, stay
on my face with minimal touch ups (who am I kidding? I don’t have time
to touch up my make up after 7:15 a.m.!), and are very easy on my
sensitive skin. My absolute favorite make up item is the Line N’
Lacquer lip liner/lip gloss duo. It looks absolutely flawless every
time – probably because Jestina taught me how to apply it. I always
feel confident about my make-up and how I look and, frankly, that’s
priceless!"
