Smooch Studio

A large group of us loved this place. We were dedicated and loyal. Now all I hear from my friends and my own personal experience we are having a bunch of customer service issues. I hate having to have an argument with them to get what was promised. I still love their products and I’ve spent way over a grand in there but I’m looking for a replacement.

The only place I will ever buy makeup again! It’s the best as are the owners and staff. They treat you like someone they’ve known forever. Kendra and Nicole know their stuff and are the greatest!
The place is absolutely gorgeous too!
Absolutely the best in every way!

I am not a makeup expert by any stretch of the imagination so I really love that the ladies at Smooch! are. I like to throw on some eyeliner, mascara lip gloss and jet out the door looking like I spent hours on my makeup when I only spent 5 mins tops. I love that the Smooch! ladies gave me tips and tricks to beat the clock and look amazing. I absolutely love their custom foundation. As the summer approaches and I spend more time outside I can take my foundation into Smooch and have it darkened. I cant tell you how many complementary comments I receive on my skin and its really the foundation working its magic. I recommend them to all of my family and friends.

This place is so much fun! I went with a group of girlfriends and we did a private makeup session and created our our own custom lip glosses and lip sticks. The staff was wonderful, so much fun and did a great job of picking makeup that would look great on you and they ALSO explain how to apply it and make sure you are comfortable doing it yourself, they let you do it yourself and offer pointers. I loved everything they applied and bought most of what they used on my face, and have enjoyed using all of it the past 2 weeks.
The custom lip gloss was really fun to create, as you let them know what kind of gloss you want (shiny or matte) and the color and flavor you would like and then you get to name your unique gloss!
I highly recommend the group outing, as you can bring your own wine and snacks in addition to your own music selection :)
Can not wait to go back!

I went to Smooch for custom foundation for a wedding I was in. I got a custom BB Cream made to the specifications I wanted and the color was an exact match. I also purchased Stay Put eyeshadow primer and got a healing concealer. The makeup artist I worked with was very friendly and helpful. I will be going back for custom lipstick creation soon!

I received a gift card for Smooch and went in to get some foundation. The cosmetic specialist mixed up a custom shade for me. It was customized, not just color-​wise but coverage-​wise and weight. Since it’s winter, I wanted slightly more coverage than usual, less sheer than a foundation I’d wear in the summer. The result was terrific, I LOVE my new foundation and have had a couple friends notice the change, or improvement, in my makeup. Highly recommend Smooch, look forward to going back for future make-​up purchases as well as lessons/​advice on color selections.

About a year ago I went to Smooch Studio with a group of co-​workers and had a custom lip gloss created. Sadly I didn’t have time during that visit to experience all the studio had to offer. That lipstick quickly became my favorite, so when I lost it I had to replace it!
I stopped back in this past Saturday and they were able to pull up my old recipe and re-​create it on the spot!
Since I was there, I decided to get some help with my foundation issues. At the age of 41 I have just begun to wear foundation, and the goop I bought at CVS just didn’t match my face.
I walked out with a «Magic Wand» that really does cover my dark under eye spots without making me look wrinkly, custom foundation with SPF, some kind of fairy dust that makes my face look pore-​less, and my two lipsticks. I also walked out with a ton of tips and tricks that taught me how to use some of the cosmetics I already invested in.
All the products are natural, and the stylist explained what each was made of, how to apply, and why it was good for my face. (Their products follow form and function).
That night I got carded (woo hoo!). The next day I went to a fancy schmancy restaurant in DC and the hostess told me my eyes «popped.»
Prices are in line with what you would pay at a department store makeup counter, but Smooch Studio products are CUSTOM and CLEAN! Plus its locally owned and such a fun place to visit.
