Amanda did my makeup for my wedding day, as well as all the bridesmaids and mother's makeup. She did a wonderful job, was very professional, and made each girl look her very best! We had some girls get airbrush and some with traditional, and both looked amazing (especially in photos!) I highly recommend her!

Amanda was fantastic. She is a true stylist. Listens to what you want, provides professional opinions and over all eases any stresses. We had a great morning getting ready. Makeup turned out fantastic. I could not have asked for anything better. It was simple and natural just how I wanted it. I would recommend her over and over.

Amanda was absolutely perfect on my wedding day! I had a large group of girls in need of makeup and she did not even hesitate to help the large group. Not only did Amanda do an amazing job with makeup, but she made each girl feel so comfortable while sitting in the makeup chair. One of my bridesmaids told me that she loved her makeup on my wedding day more than when she got hers done by someone else when she was a bride. Seriously, Amanda's warm welcoming personality helped put me at ease for one of the biggest days of my life. Amanda did such a great job I wish I had more occasions to have her do my makeup for! I'm so thankful for her!! She's easy to talk to, listens and respects your input, and does not judge your level of experience with makeup!

Amanda is a great makeup artist! She did the makeup and also styled my hair for my wedding, and I couldn't be happier with her work. The makeup and hair was amazing! She listened to what I wanted and made it real. Thanks Amanda!

She did the make up for my wedding party. All of my girls looked beautiful. Only one of my bridesmaids, who is my sister, didn't like it. So Amanda was kind enough to refund her money back. She was kind, punctual, and willing to travel. My only criticism would be, the airbrush hardly held up to sweat. The first bead of sweat to fall from my forehead, I blotted it with a tissue and the tissue soaked up the makeup taking it off my face. But it was gorgeous before that!

FAQs

• What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

  I ask my clients how they would normally do their makeup on a daily basis. I ask them if they have dry, oily, or combination skin. I also will go into eye color, skin tones, and facial features and let them know what color works best for their skin.

• What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

  I studied Cosmetology at The Salon Professional Academy in Appleton, WI. I worked for Benefit Cosmetics right after beauty school. During this time, I received hands on training with many different makeup lines. I now work at a spa where I received multiple hands on training in every day makeup looks, to bridal airbrush makeup.

• How did you get started doing this type of work?

  I got started doing this by becoming a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant. I traveled to homes where I helped women pick out the correct skin care and makeup choices. I was also their to help them apply the makeup and answer any questions. It was a few years later that I went into Cosmetology.
