Hired on Thumbtack

Hired on Thumbtack

Pros: Kara is very nice and she’s great at being responsive and flexible. I had a few changes to the wedding day timeline and she understood when we had to move up the start time to make sure everyone was ready to leave on time for the limo. One of the reasons I chose Kara was she mixes her pigments to create foundations, blush, eye shadows, etc. Her prices are reasonable for the makeup trial, each additional client, and trip fee, and she also requested reimbursement for parking. Cons: At the bridal makeup trial, she was very confident and we spoke at length that I was looking for someone with adequate background with women with dark skin tones because my bridal party and I are a diverse group of women and I wanted to make it clear that the person I hired had experience. In hindsight, I should have answered her more questions. On the day her body language signaled that she was nervous, which made us all uneasy. She maybe smiled once throughout the process. I want to give her a better rating but in 7 hours she completed 3 full makeups (including mine) out of the 5 women. My sister had to do her makeup in the end. Looking at the photo sneak peek, she gave us all black brows. If you have dark skin I would suggest another artist.

Details: Wedding • 18 - 25 years old • 26 - 44 years old • 45 - 64 years old • Standard (brushes, sponges, etc.) • False lashes • 5 people • My home, venue, etc.

Kara is the BEST! Not only is she a talented, patient, and professional makeup artist, she is incredibly kind and fun to be around. Kara did my makeup for a number of shows I modeled for in college and I always walked away feeling so beautiful and confident. I would absolutely recommend her!

Kara is an exceptional makeup artist! I have gone to her for my makeup needs several times over the years and she always delivers excellent work. She has been especially helpful in deciding styles for me, and I trust her to make decisions for me when I'm unsure.

Kara was kind enough to offer to do my make-up for free. I appreciate any make-up artist who wants to gain or has experience applying make-up to various skin tones, especially darker pigmented skin. I liked how my make-up came out. I would recommend Kara for theatrical make-up or competitive make up (dance).
