Amazing job!

My original makeup artist canceled on me a few months before the wedding because of covid. But I'm so glad she did because I found Caitlyn and she did an AMAZING JOB! It didn't even feel like I had makeup on and I wasn't worried at all about it smudging or coming off. All of my bridesmaids loved Caitlyn because she listened and was able to do natural looks for everyone. Highly, highly, highly recommend!

The best ever

I don’t have the words to describe how happy I am that I hired Caitlyn to do my wedding makeup. She is unbelievably talented, professional, and easy to work with. Caitlyn did my makeup, my 7 bridesmaids, and my mother’s makeup. She sent a schedule ahead of time to ensure that every one had time for hair and makeup. She was set up on time which was SO early in the morning and she traveled!! She had a huge variety of high quality products to ensure everyone still looked like themselves but looked beautiful. I can’t sing Caitlyn’s praises high enough! Would recommend 1000000%.

My glam team for life

Caitlyn was AMAZING and I have never been happier with my makeup. She was super flexible with our trial sessions and made my makeup visions come to life for my boudoir photos, and wedding day. Highly recommend her to anyone needing wedding makeup or for any occasion!!! She’s also an expert at product recommendations

Such elegant make-up

I trust Cait so much with my make-up and couldn't wait to hire her for my wedding. My bridal party looked SO elegant, I still can't get over it! Cait does amazing work and really listens to what you're looking for to get it just right. She is so organized, which made me feel at ease on the big day. Thank you, Cait!

The perfect natural glam look!

Caitlyn was so incredibly down to earth and truly brought out the things that make me feel beautiful on my wedding day! Her natural glam look is PERFECTION. I'm not one to wear a lot of makeup regularly but she made me feel stunning and I couldn't imagine having gone with anyone else. She did my entire bridal party as well as the moms and they could not stop raving about her makeup artistry skills! You will not regret booking her for your makeup needs!

Amazing!!!

Caitlyn is one of the best makeup artists out there, if not the best!! She will make you feel stunning for any occasion that you work with her. I’ve had the pleasure to have my makeup done by Caitlyn several times now and each time she exceeds my expectations and I leave more than happy with the result. I knew that when it came time for my own wedding, there was no one else I would want. She is so sweet, easy to work with, professional, very knowledgeable, and does an absolutely incredible job. Caitlyn did airbrush makeup and false lashes on 8 women in my bridal party and everyone loved it!! She worked with the bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom individually to meet their varying makeup preferences seamlessly. I told Caitlyn that I don’t wear much makeup daily and wanted to look glam, but still feel like myself – she did just that. Everyone told me all night that my makeup was amazing and the best part was that it also lasted all day and night!!!!! I didn’t need to worry about a single thing on my wedding day working with Caitlyn and this is the best feeling as a bride when there’s so much going on. I highly, highly, highly recommend Makeup by Caitlyn Michelle! Thanks so much Cait!!

Incredible mua!

I work in the beauty industry so I had a very high standard when looking for a MUA for my wedding. Caitlyn was INCREDIBLE and I can not recommend her enough! Not only is she an extremely talented MUA, she’s also organized, professional and personable. While getting ready with my bridesmaids, it felt like Caitlin was one of us! She’s sweet, fun and easygoing — qualities you want in someone you’re spending the morning of your wedding with!

Another thing I appreciated about Caitlyn was the quality of brands/products she used on me. In other weddings I have been in, I have seen other MUAs use cheap or lower quality makeup. Caitlyn definitely has an amazing kit filled with quality products that really make a difference in achieving an end look!

Caitlyn is the best!

I am so happy that Caitlyn did both my engagement photo and wedding day makeup! She is simply amazing at what she does and super knowledgeable. Not only that, but she is so easy going and sweet to work with. This girl knows what she is doing and will make you look GOOD! My entire bridal party loved her - even those that have never gotten their makeup done before. I looked so natural and not overdone at all - it was just what I wanted. She can also hide almost any blemish (aka she's a miracle worker). This was one of the easiest decisions I had to make the entire wedding planning process and I would do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks Caitlyn!!!
