I couldn’t be happier with my experience! Skylar is incredibly talented, professional, and so easy to work with. She took the time to understand my vision and executed it perfectly. My makeup looked flawless in person and in photos, and it lasted all day without needing touch-ups. I will definitely be booking again.

Skylar was fantastic!! She really listened to what I wanted and took care to check in as she was working to ensure her work was heading in the right direction. When everything was done, she took the time to ensure every detail was just as I wanted, and made even the slightest adjustment to ensure I was happy with the result. The result was everything I had hoped for and more - I felt so beautiful the entire night! In addition to Skylar's amazing craft, she is also a joy to converse with. Scheduling and logistics were easy and seamless, and she was just a great presence in general!

Details: Special occasion • 26 - 44 years old • Standard (brushes, sponges, etc.) • 3 people • My home, venue, etc. • At the pro’s location

Skylar went above and beyond! Not only was my makeup perfect it lasted all day and night through everything! She’s very kind and will adjust anything if you need and touch up if needed.
