She is punctual, Professional and very talented but most of all, she is passionate about the industry . Her attitude is contagious and always adds to a happy working environment behind the scenes despite the chaos,madness, time restrictions & environments that sometimes the teams have to work within. Yet again Maria will be heading up my main team of make up artists for this years London Fashion Week opening & Closing shows and will be one of only two make up artists showcasing her horror and prosthetics make up skills at this years 2010 Bloodlust Ball at Hampton Court.

John Oakley 06 August at 20:15 I have had the pleasure of working with Maria Foster on many occasions and I have to say she is one of my favourite makeup artists. Maria is both a consummate professional and an exceptionally talented make-up artist. In addition to imaginatively interpreting each brief and bringing her own creative energy to every job, she is open to suggestion. This is key to achieving the very best results. Not only this, but Maria is so much fun to work with. I always feel so relaxed with her on set because she somehow manages bind the whole team together. I would recommend her to anyone. x http://www.oakleyphotography.co.uk/
My testimonial: "I would like to wrap Maria up in cotton wool and put her in my pocket, and take her with me around the world (and I plan to, but maybe not in my pocket). When your makeup artist wears swarovski crystal encrusted heels for the job, you know she means business. The cosmetic coverage was flawless, my cheeks perfectly blushed, my lips sumptuously coated in a luxurious cover of made to match colour, my temples bedecked in glistening swarovskis, made to feel like a movie star, red carpet ready. One of very very few who I would trust to do my own makeup. I ♥ Maria." - Bex Paul
I had a photo shoot with the Mail on Sunday Magazine and contacted Maria to do my make up and hair . She travelled all the way from York to the south coast to make me look my best for the shoot . She took into consideration my skin colouring and my outfits and chose my make up accordingly . When the photographer arrived she even commented on how lovely I looked . I could not have been more pleased . All my friends and family said I looked great in the photos . Thanks Maria , will definitely recommend , and will definitely book you again for any future shoots . Bernie Hurst Designer and Proprietor of Nooshooz. http://www.nooshooz.co.uk/

'Maria is by far one of the most talented make-up artists I have come across to date in the industry, not only is her work exceptional but her manor and being are outstanding. I had the pleasure of meeting and working with Maria on the Maria Buccalleti Beach Couture Fashion Show. Having never met Maria before she instantly knew what look to create for me. With a mixture of bronzes, gold?s and browns she produced the most beautiful smokey summer bronzed look I have ever seen. Perfect for a Yacht setting on the Thames. Maria worked the colours with my skin tone immaculately and took care to perfect every little detail. Maria?s quality of work is amazing and not only that she is so friendly and fabulous to work with. As a model I have worked with many make-up artists in the past, and Maria by far created the best look I have ever seen. The make lasted for the entire evening and I was extremely impressed. After working with Maria I would not want to work with anyone else in the future. It is clear to see Maria is extremely talented, whilst being such a lovely person. Dionne Fehr ? Model 04/08/2010
