About
Pulling from her extensive 25 years of experience as a world-renowned makeup artist in fashion, a beauty/style impage expert for women over 40, and green beauty pioneer, Kristen Arnett creates stunning results for brides and marriers of every age.
A leader in healthy beauty, she is one of the very few artists in the world (still!) with an eco, green, non-toxic makeup kit. And gets amazing results, without compromising the health of her clients’ skin.
Kristen respects each client’s taste, whether it be creating a flawless face with a light-handed, natural application that she's famous for - or more dramatic look.
An industry luminary featured in Town & Country Weddings, Wall Street Journal, Women’s Health, Whole Foods Market, and more, she's been hailed as a "Green Leader" by ELLE Magazine, a "Top Eco Influencer" by Eileen Fisher, and a "Natural Beauty Guru" by Whole Living Magazine.
Currently Kristen's exclusive services are limited to makeup for the bride (person to-be-wed), mother/parent of the bride.
Extended time may be added on for day-of touch ups through the photos, wedding, reception and any look changes as requested.
As one bride said in a Google review, "Kristen is the best friend I didn't know I needed the day of my wedding!"
Kristen shows up for her clients fully, going well beyond the role of a makeup artist.
From her calming presence to her willingness to jump up and straighten trains, necklaces and veils before photos or going down the aisle, Kristen ensures that details beyond just makeup are in place, so every bride looks and feels absolutely fabulous at every turn.
Actresses, musicians, models, brides and every day women love:
- How “weightless” their skin feels
- How beautifully the makeup appears in person
- How flawlessly they photograph
- How fantastic they still look at the end of a long day/night
Those with sensitive and/or acne prone skin report they are shocked to find they didn’t have their usual negative reactions to the makeup.
As a long time supporter of LGBTQ+ rights and a member of the Tucson Gay Chamber of Commerce, she is honored to offer her services for same-sex, gay, lesbian, queer weddings.
A true professional, Kristen is reliable, organized, and punctual, so you can remain relaxed on your big day.

Reviews of Kristen Arnett - Eco-Green Celebrity Makeup Artist
Professional Network & Endorsements
Kristen does beautiful makeup work, turning brides into superstars. I love working with her. Plus, she's friendly, smart, and speaks Italian. What more could you want from a professional?
Kristen is incredible! I invited a non-professional model to my studio for a test shoot, and commissioned Kristen to make ME look good (as photographer) Kristen transformed her from a timid business woman, into a WOW - "who are you trying to tell that you've never modeled" work-of-art. Painting on a character, is far more than the make-up - she also coached her on how to truly wear it. Stances, moods, expressions and all of the prompts that only an upbeat female could provide to help her feel amazing about herself - thereby making me look that much better too! We had a blast - she's fun to work with, PASSIONATE and professional - Kristen is top shelf!
