Amazing Makeup!

Eva did my makeup on my wedding day and it was incredible! She matched the makeup to my exact skin tone (I get red pretty quickly) and I felt so stunning but not heavy or like I was wearing makeup at all! She made it so that when my cheeks started to get red it only made me look even better! She was so much fun - we giggled pretty much the entire time. She made me feel so beautiful and I am forever thankful! I would love to get my makeup done again just to work with her!

Ava is the BEST

I got so lucky to wind up on Ava’s team with a bunch of other women for the State Dinner for Teachers event. I typically don’t wear a lot of make up but requested a dramatic smoky eye and got so much more. The compliments did not stop all night, and my make up still looked flawless hours later when I was ready for bed. I would LOVE to work with Ava again!

Amazing bridal event makeup by Ava

Eva is an amazing makeup artist. She was very kind and made her best effort to understand what I wanted and what would look good for me with an amazing snd professional attitude. She took her time to understand my face and its needs during our make up trial and during my ceremony date, she even did a superior job with my make up. I recommend her for sure for everyone looking for a professional make up service.

The best wedding makeup artist!

Ava is the best!! She did wedding makeup for myself (the bride), my mom, sister, and the groom’s mom. She came to the house to help us get ready which was a huge win for a packed day. Right away we felt like we had known her for years.

We all had different skin types and tones, and she worked with each person individually to make sure we looked and felt our best. As a girl who doesn’t typically wear a lot of makeup and likes to let my freckles shine through, I felt very heard when talking with Ava. I looked and felt like myself, but in a gorgeous glam way that was perfect for the big day. My skin looked flawless and my eyes popped with perfectly applied lashes. I’m so thankful that we booked Ava - she’s the best for the job!

True Artist!

Ava is a true artist. I felt amazing and looked beautiful. Not only is Ava fantastic, she is truly gifted. I was amazed and very delighted with what she did for me. She communicated every step of the way what she was planning to do with my make-up to make sure I was comfortable. We also had a great conversation mixed in while she did my make-up which totally put me at ease and made me very comfortable. Ava is extremely knowledgeable about makeup, products and is up on all the latest trends. Not only did she do an amazing job on my make-up, she gave me terrific tips and pointers for when I would do it myself. She really knows her stuff and I would highly recommend Ava for any of your make-up needs.

Love her so much

Ava did makeup for myself, my bridesmaids, my mother, and my now mother in law for my wedding. She did such an amazing job I cannot express how happy we all were. My sister has hated every single profession who has ever done her makeup and LOVED what Ava did. We all felt so beautiful and like ourselves. I loved how she was able to enhance what we already had and not change us too much but made us all even more beautiful. None of us have never felt so amazing about ourselves. I cannot recommend her enough.
