I think my only comment about seeming to apply the same style to most of the subjects is that she's missing the proper contouring.
Check out everyone with a long face, in many of them, their face looks even longer in the "after" shot. Which would mean she's obviously not utilizing proper contour techniques but a blanket technique which may work on the majority of clients, but I've never seen anyone try to make a long face look longer. As a well-established mua, I would expect more from her.
But, of course, it's just my two cents and my perception could certainly be off from others.

I agree.
There doesn't seem to be any variety in her skills. Everyone ended up looking the same. And the makeup looks very dated. They would have looked hot... like a decade or two ago.

Is she serious???? "Go down to Hollywood - and find Alexis!" LOL You've gotta be kidding me.
And why does it say these images have not been retouched? Sorry but in some images it's very obvious they've been retouched.
Yeah, totally not retouched...pffff.... Good for her for obviously being very successful with her trademark look, but I wouldn't be caught dead with that look. It looks so 90s to me...that is just my own opinion though.

^^^ Yeah, I had the exact same reaction to that makeover as well!
It's quite astonishing how she can take some average looking lady and make her into a total sex bomb. Imagine what than must do to their self-esteem and sense of self-image. :/

^^ i agree with u guys. I thought it was only me, but i was like damn i didn't know make up did miracles...i refuse to believe that those are even the same people in the after shots in most of them. IDK, but obviously we all look diff with makeup on, but this is drastic...too much photoshop or alexis prolly paid models for the after shots, just like she paid for that cheesy song to be made. shes makin too much money for her 90s make up style

She shows the transformation. Some just have that skill of creating beauty where you wouldn't see any.
The cheesey song was made for her, not bought. She is a sweetheart and people do genuinely care for this women!
Supply and demand, if people didn't want that look there are many other artists who would make them over.

Just a quick question, how does one shorten a long face? I know how to elongate a face, but shortening confounds me. /off topicness]
Not a fan of the porn look. But hey, not everyone is a fan of neon brightness either. -secret neon whore-

You manipulate the chin area and the forehead area by contouring. Let's say you have a really pointy chin, you would minimize it's length by bluntly blocking it with a darker color than your skintone.

The name Alexis Vogel always makes me shudder. I don't think she's anything spectacular. Her makeup style looks the same on everybody, it's not very original. I'd really love to see her step outside the box, because the heavily lined cat eye with overlined lips doesn't work on everybody. For example, some of those brides look really whorish. I wouldn't want my makeup caked on for my wedding, I'd want to look radiant and fresh, not weighed down by foundation.
