My mom just finished a makeup trial with Yana and she loved it! Yana was very patient and professional. She took the time to make sure that my mom was comfortable each step. My mom is not used to makeup but she was so happy with the results! She looked like herself and more glamorous!

My daughter and I were in Hawaii for a wedding and at the last minute decided it might be fun to get our hair and makeup done. Yana promptly responded and we could tell by her instagram account that we would love her work. We weren’t disappointed and had so much fun getting ready. Wonderful exoerience and we now have pictures to last a lifetime. Totally worth hiring Yana!

I had my makeup and hair done by Yana for a festival, and I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results. I was running late and felt terrible asking her to speed things up, but she handled it with so much grace and professionalism. Despite the time crunch, she absolutely nailed the look I was going for—my makeup was flawless and my hair held up beautifully all day! She’s incredibly sweet, patient, and has such a calming presence, even when things are a little hectic. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and puts her heart into every detail. She went above and beyond to make sure I felt confident and comfortable, and I’m so grateful for that. I got so many compliments throughout the day! Highly, highly recommend her for any event—she’s truly talented and a joy to work with.

Details: Special occasion • 18 - 25 years old • I'm flexible • 1 person • At the pro’s location • My home, venue, etc.

I had an amazing experience with Yana! She is truly an artist in every sense of the word. Her attention to detail, creativity, and ability to bring out my best features were absolutely incredible. Not only is her work outstanding, but she is also so kind, professional, and easy to work with. She made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the entire process. I couldn’t be happier with the results and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a talented makeup artist!
