Tara was the perfect makeup artist for my wedding! I barely wear makeup for even special occasions and felt immediately at ease with Tara. I’m a private person, so please excuse the lack of photos in this public review, but Tara’s work is truly incredible!

I had been a bridesmaid in many weddings before my own wedding day, so I had lots of prior experiences with being “dolled up” for a wedding party. This felt nothing like that - I didn’t feel layers of makeup caking my face. I have chronic acne - which of course was in full force on my wedding day from all the stress of wedding planning, but you couldn't see any of it by the time Tara finished! Instead, I looked like an elevated version of myself on my wedding day.

I had a large bridal party and Tara and her team (Amy & Allie - thank you so much!) did a fantastic job of making sure all of my bridesmaids and family who were getting makeup done felt comfortable and got the looks they wanted. Everyone looked truly stunning all day and the process for doing makeup for 11 people plus the bride felt like a breeze, even though I’m sure it took lots of careful coordination and planning on Tara’s part to make sure we all were ready on time, including touch ups.

Lastly but certainly not least. I slipped and fell a few months before the wedding and managed to give myself a concussion, which I was still recovering from on my wedding day. Despite this less-than-ideal situation, Tara helped me re-arrange the morning-of makeup schedule so I could include more rest breaks to save my energy for later. It all worked out and I was still able to dance the night away. Tara provided a great touch up kit (which I didn’t end up needing but which felt like a great security blanket to have just in case). And removal at the end of the day was easy too - she gave me just the right makeup remover I needed to make sure I could get my fake eyelashes off at the end of the night! I truly felt like a princess the whole day and Tara and her team were essential to helping make my wedding vision come true! Thanks so much Tara!

I cannot recommend Tara enough! She did both my makeup and my mother’s makeup and hair for my wedding, and we were absolutely blown away by how beautiful everything turned out. From the very beginning, she was professional, caring, and truly listened to what we wanted.

One thing that really stood out was her expertise with Asian features. She enhanced our natural beauty so flawlessly while still making us feel completely like ourselves. The makeup photographed beautifully, lasted all day and night, and looked stunning both in person and in pictures.

She made my mother feel so confident and beautiful, which meant so much to me on such a special day. Her attention to detail, talent, and warm personality made the entire experience stress-free. I’m so grateful she was part of our wedding day and would recommend her to anyone looking for a talented artist who truly understands how to bring your vision to life.

I had the absolute pleasure of working with Tara as my bridal artist, and I couldn't be happier with the experience with her! From my trial to the day of the wedding, she was incredibly professional, organized, and detail-oriented, which made the entire process feel less stressful. What stood out to me was how flexible and accommodating Tara was. She really took the time to listen to my preferences and made sure my vision came to life exactly how I imagined it... even though I changed my mind so many times! I never felt rushed or pressured and she continuously checked in to ensure I felt completely satisfied with the adjustments.

I highly recommend her to anyone - not just asian brides - for your next special event!

I truly had a wonderful experience with Tara! She’s an amazing makeup artist that truly listens to you as the bride and ensures you are completely happy and satisfied with your wedding date look. From the first interaction, I felt super at ease working with Tara. I am someone who prefers a natural glowy makeup look and Tara captured my natural beauty perfectly. I would highly recommend her!

Stop what you’re doing and book Tara!! She is beyond talented. My bridal makeup felt timeless and chic. It was the perfect balance of wearing makeup while still looking completely like me. From the very beginning, she made everything feel calm and stress-free.

Tara is not only an incredible artist, but the kindest, most grounding presence to have with you on such an important day. She felt more like an old friend than a vendor. Her attention to detail and professionalism are truly unmatched. I’m endlessly grateful she was there for both my rehearsal dinner and wedding day. Best decision! Book her!!

Tara is the absolute best!!! I hired her as my MUA for my wedding day, and everything about the experience was perfect. From the first time I reached out to Tara, all of her communication was very professional and her contract process was straightforward & clear. She took the time to ask questions and get to know me during our trial so we were already very comfortable working together on the wedding day. One of my bridesmaids also has a lot of sensitivities to ingredients used in make up products, and Tara was incredible about checking things in her kit and making recommendations. Couldn't recommend her enough!

1000000% recommend Tara and her team! ❤️

When I was looking for a makeup artist, I was honestly a little nervous — I don’t wear makeup often, and I wasn’t sure how certain looks would work with my Filipino features. But from our very first conversation, Tara completely put me at ease. We bonded on a cultural level, and she understood exactly how to enhance my natural features while keeping everything comfortable and true to me.

For my trial, we went with a soft glam look. By the wedding day, I was thinking about maybe doing less eyeshadow, a more dramatic lash, and a pinker blush — and when I saw Tara that morning, she suggested those exact things to me! She took the words right out of my mouth. It felt like we were on the same wavelength. A wedding morning is already so stressful, but having that moment with her definitely set the tone for the day. I knew I could trust that I was going to look amazing.

On the day of the wedding, my makeup was perfect. I got married in July and my makeup lasted through everything — the garden photos in the humidity, all the dancing and happy tears, and even eating all the delicious food! Despite it all, my makeup still looked fresh and flawless from start to finish.

I absolutely loved how everything turned out. Tara made me feel confident, beautiful, and still like myself. When I got my wedding photos and video back I was surprised - I looked even better than I had remembered! 😂 I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I can’t recommend her enough!

Tara was an EXCEPTIONAL MUA. She was professional throughout the whole process, and was able to execute my look and vision for my wedding perfectly. I was complimented all day and am still getting complimented on how effortless my makeup looked on my wedding. My favorite part? I did not cake up and the makeup lasted ALL day and night, even through dancing and the after party.

She was able to enhance my features and created a sultry but elegant look for my wedding vision. Tara and her assistant MUA, Amy, were the perfect duo in taking care of me and my bridesmaids the morning of. I was so confident in Tara that I knew regardless of what she did I would feel fabulous.

I will most definitely be booking Tara for my future events!! She is a queen.

I got married in Westchester, NY this past September, and I truly cannot emphasize enough how Tara set the tone for my entire day with her calming, professional, and kind presence. She made me feel the most beautiful I’ve ever felt in my life, while still staying completely true to me.

I found Tara through Instagram while planning the wedding on a shorter timeline, and I got so lucky that she was still available. Her work immediately stood out to me — she’s a true master of soft glam! As an Asian bride, it can be challenging to find someone who really understands how to enhance your features without making you look too washed out or overdone. Tara just got it. She offered amazing advice, understood what I wanted even when I couldn’t fully articulate it, and made me feel like the best version of myself.

She also went above and beyond for my mom’s makeup and hair, taking such great care to make sure she also looked and felt beautiful. My makeup stayed flawless all day and night (even after hours of dancing!) and looked perfect in every photo.

On top of her incredible artistry, Tara was so accommodating and worked with me to create a custom quote that met all my needs perfectly. She’s talented, professional, and such a joy to work with. I’m beyond thankful I found her — and I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Tara was the absolute best. When you hire Tara, you're getting an artist!! It's so hard to do makeup that looks natural but still elevated and lasts all night long. Tara NAILED it. She'll bring out the most beautiful parts of your face. She also has a great, calm, positive, and warm energy, which is exactly what I wanted for my wedding day. She kept my family and friends on schedule and efficient but in a totally chill way. We loved every minute of it. I could not recommend her more strongly.
