Top makeup artist

Caroline is one of the premier makeup artists in Kentucky! She has a way of making you look like the absolute best version of yourself, without caking makeup or going overboard. She is so talented that she can do heavier makeup if desired and she does it so well! I would completely trust her with my wedding day or any other special event!

Amazing MUA, professional + easy!

I 1000% recommend Caroline for all your wedding makeup needs. She made me feel absolutely beautiful + confident on my wedding day, and made sure I still "looked like me." She was able to provide top quality service to me + 11 bridesmaids, remained on schedule without making anyone feel rushed and we had so much fun with her! Leading up to the wedding, Caroline was responsive and professional to any questions I had. I did two trials with her because I wanted to try a natural and glam look, and she had the awesome idea to do one of the trials on the rehearsal dinner day so I looked glam the entire wedding weekend!

Highly recommend!

I don't typically wear a lot of makeup, so I knew when it came to my wedding that I would need a professional. Caroline did a wonderful job of making me feel not only comfortable, but beautiful. The look hit all the marks with coming across great in photos, lasting throughout the event, and fitting my personality. In addition to being great at the makeup side of things, Caroline is just a fun person to have around on your big day. She's easy to talk to, great at working with the flow of the day, and helped me feel more relaxed as the bride. Highly recommend!

Talented + Kind

Caroline was a dream to work with. I was so nervous about finding the right makeup artist for my wedding. I came across Caroline's work on instagram and was interested. After chatting with her on the phone I could tell she was kind and open to customizing a makeup look to suit my wishes. I scheduled a trial for me and my mom and we were delighted with the results.

Caroline is warm and approachable. This is very important because you want someone you can communicate with honestly (about what you like and don't like) and you also want someone who is pleasant to be around since she will be working with you on such an important day.

In addition to her personality, she is also very talented. She achieved very different looks for me, my mom and my sister with ease.

Another one of Caroline's strong suits is the way she listens to her clients. I had some changes I wanted to make after my trial and she made sure the tweaks were done exactly to my liking come wedding day. I did not have to micromanage her at all. She nailed my look perfectly.

I have recommended her to so many people since working with her on my wedding day and one of my best friends has contracted with her for her big day in a couple months. I feel confident that Caroline can make anyone happy--no matter your age or your event type!

Spectacular

Caroline is truly a magician and beyond talented. She has a heart of gold and truly anyone she touches looks stunning. She helps make your special day less stressful. She made me feel like a million bucks on the biggest day of my life! If you don’t use her, you’re missing out! No one else will ever touch my face again, but her!

Caroline Lee is beyond wonderful!

I Highly recommend Caroline Lee! She is professional, reliable, friendly, fun and beyond skillful! Her makeup technique is amazing lasting through the whole day (and admittedly through the next day) without wearing off or smudging. By the end of the day it surprisingly looks as fresh as when she applies it initially. Truly amazing! It is clear Caroline Lee not only loves what she does, but is the best at it! I absolutely recommend her for any occasion where you want to feel confident being your most beautiful self! Love this girl and her dedication to her clients happiness!

Absolutely the best!

Caroline is absolutely amazing! I was obsessed with my wedding day makeup. It was exactly what I wanted, even though I wasn’t quite sure how to explain the look I was going for. She is super flexible and started at 7am on the morning of my wedding to do 11 full faces of makeup and was done in record time. Not only is she great at makeup, but she’s also super fun to be around, which is great on a day that can easily leave you stressed. Don’t hesitate, book her now!

Would not recommend

I found Caroline Lee Makeup on IG and immediately booked her for my wedding. My wedding coordinator and I ended up being very unhappy with Caroline. She purposely ignored all communications with my coordinator on confirming a time for my wedding day. She booked another bride at the time she originally told me in the beginning. A few days before my wedding she confirmed a time that had never been discussed or agreed upon. She was trying to make me get my makeup done at 7am when my wedding wasn’t until 4pm. She finally ended up calling me to apologize and admit she screwed up, although she didn’t have an explanation why she ignored my coordinator and gave my time away. She had to end up sending another artist to do my makeup at a later time on my wedding day. I had not met this artist before and had to do a trial run with her a day before my wedding. All in all, Caroline was very unprofessional and not good at communicating. I’m sure she’s good at what she does, but I think she’s overbooked and unable to keep up with her clients. If she hadn’t of had another artist to send last minute, I would’ve been forced to get my makeup done at 7am simply because she screwed up. I would not recommend her.
