She's more that "just" a makeup person

Do yourself a favor and hire Kara for your wedding makeup. She is more than just a makeup artist... her years of experience in the wedding industry make her a wedding vendor extraordinaire. She is one more person to have in your corner on your wedding day. She did makeup for me, my mom, my aunt and 7 bridesmaids. She did the makeup professionally and efficiently. She stays for touchups which were so necessary due to many of us crying happy tears throughout the day. She helps with the kiddos, carry's your train, helps when your sleeve falls off for the 100th time, and makes you feel like a beauty queen on your wedding day. Wedding makeup is an investment, but for us it was worth every penny. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world Kara! She's truly an artist.

I feel bad for any bride that doesn't have Kara on their wedding day!

Kara was highly recommended to me by my wedding planner Kristin Zupancic. I hired Kara to do our wedding and also to do my makeup for our engagement photos. When we had to postpone our wedding twice because of covid, Kara was so flexible and understanding with moving our date. When you hire Kara, you are getting soooo much more than just a makeup artist on your wedding day. She goes above and beyond and stays well past when a typical makeup artist would stay to touch you up, hold your wedding gown up so it doesn't get dirty and also make sure you have water. Did I mention I almost forgot to put my VERY EXPENSIVE veil on before walking down the aisle and it was Kara who reminded me that I needed it!! Kara did makeup for 10 of us on wedding day. Me, all six of my bridesmaids, my mother and mother-in-law as well as another one of my friends who was with us on wedding morning. Two of those people weren't even supposed to get their makeup done, but then they saw how amazing everyone looked and asked if they could get it done too and Kara again went above and beyond saying yes! She showed up right on time and finished everyone's makeup in an extremely timely manner! Everyone LOVED their makeup! Kara then traveled with me to our first look location (which was different than our venue location) and made sure I looked good in the 95 degree heat in the middle of the day...Did I mention we did our first look at the UF Stadium so she even held my dress as we jumped the fence lol! Kara stayed through the ceremony to touch me up and made me just feel so beautiful. She is a true pro and knows exactly how to make someone look their best for all their big moments. I'm so glad I hired Kara for my wedding day and I know you will be too!!

Talented, Friendly, and Professional Wedding Makeup Artist

I hired Kara as a makeup artist for my wedding on October 25th in Gainesville. She did makeup for my four bridesmaids, mother, mother-in-law, and myself. She met us at the cottage where we were getting ready. Kara is an incredibly talented makeup artist and a very professional business-woman. I felt very confident in her skills and abilities to make us all look beautiful and glamorous for my wedding day. She knows what will look best for you and gives you some choices for lip and eye color. The makeup turned out so beautifully for the photos! She is fun and friendly and is a great person to have around before your wedding to help with anything you may need. She will stay until after your ceremony to do touchups and help with anything else you may need! For example, she held my dress for me while I walked downstairs to go take photos and do my first-look. Overall, I would definitely recommend Kara if you are looking for a very talented and professional makeup artist for your wedding day!

Kara was absolutely wonderful. I booked her package for 3 and she did an amazing job. My mom and MOH was very pleased and looked fabulous. She stayed around for touch-ups and assisted the photographer during photos. She is a great asset to your wedding team.

Kara came so highly recommended after asking for suggestions in a Facebook group and now I know why! I will never not recommend her to anyone. She is professional but fun and incredibly talented. I chose Kara for my wedding. After our initial meeting I felt so good about it. I am not a makeup person at all and she made me feel amazing without overdoing anything. She really understands individual needs. Not only did she do our makeup, but she stays for touch ups after the ceremony and even helped with my dress before walking down the aisle. Book Kara Winslow and you will not regret it!!!

Finding Kara was a dream come true! I'm a simple girl and don't really wear that much makeup, if any. However, I wanted to look amazing for my wedding so I put my trust in her and boy did she come through. I felt beautiful all day long! I never would have considered wearing fake eyelashes, but they make a huge difference in wedding photos. So glad she talked me into that! She also did an amazing job making all of my girls look absolutely gorgeous. Kara stayed with us through the wedding ceremony for touch ups and even carried the train of my dress all over the place. She was like my fairy godmother for the day! Kara far surpassed my expectations and I would book her again and again!

Hire this artist. Seriously. Hire her yesterday. I felt glamorous throughout my entire wedding but I still felt 100% like myself thanks to Kara. Not only did she make me feel confident in my look but she was a wonderful help to have with me on my wedding day. She was makeup artist and bridal assistant from getting ready through the ceremony. My new husband admitted the biggest "wow" moment for him was in fact my makeup! Kara was one of my vendors I was most confident and sure of and I could not be happier with the results. Thank you Kara!

Loved working with Kara for my engagement photo shoot make-up! She completely comforted me after I was a little nervous having such intense make-up, as I normally go for a more natural look. The pictures turned out great, and I'm so happy with how I looked!

Kara is fabulous. It's as simple as that! Kara herself is an absolute joy to work with. So funny, kind, upbeat, and incredibly talented! I have worked with Kara in the past for other events other than my wedding and that's where I fell in love with her work. She is a true artist. It's not just putting on make up, she knows how to enhance your features and make you look even more incredible. She also has a great knowledge of what works and does not work with the camera so you never have to worry that you won't look good in photos cuz honey if you have Kara there she will make sure you look good!
Now to the day of the wedding! Kara was very punctual we got started on my make up as soon as she had finished setting up her amazing artist kit. She did make up for me, my mother, and my mother in law and I swear we've never looked so damn fabulous in all of our lives! Kara was so amazing throughout the whole day I was blown away by her kindness and her undivided attention. She stayed even after the ceremony and somewhat into the beginning of the reception just to make sure there was not a lash out of place! As far as costs go she is totally affordable and worth every penny! Kara made my wedding day absolutely perfect! I could never thank her enough for doing such an amazing job!

Kara did a beautiful, amazing job on makeup for the wedding and engagement shoot! She is extremely professional and gets her work done quickly and efficiently, while also being absolutely lovely and very helpful. She made the getting-ready process go so much smoother and I don't know what we would've done without her!

Kara is amazing! She is fun to work with. She did my makeup for my engagement photo session and my wedding day. She provided one of her staff to stay and do touch ups at our wedding but actually ended up staying herself and was a lot of fun and professional. I had a small wedding party that she also did makeup for. I was very pleased with the makeup. She listened to what I wanted and was able to deliver the beautiful look that I was imagining. I would highly recommend using Kara Winslow for your special event.

Kara did a fantastic job with my engagement photo and wedding makeup. She really knows how the makeup will translate in photos too. She arranges for either herself or her assistant to stay with you until after your wedding ceremony so you are always touched up and looking great for photos. My bridal party and I loved her and her assistant, Taylor. They definitely took the stress of looking good for pictures off our shoulders. Highly recommend using Kara!

I actually used Kara for my best friend's wedding. Let me tell you something: KARA IS AWESOME. She is so down to earth, talented, and touched everyone up until after the ceremony. I felt very taken care of and received many compliments on the makeup!

Kara was awesome, so much fun, and she stuck around right up until the minute they sent me into the reception! My makeup looked amazing (in person, and especially in photos), and I was very pleased with her professionalism :) She made sure I was comfortable with everything, and she was very patient with my mom and mother-in-law, who don't normally wear much makeup. It was a pleasant experience for us all, and I highly recommend her for any professional makeup needs! Thank you Kara!

Kara was so great! She did my makeup and stayed with me through the pictures before the ceremony, and touched me up again right after the ceremony so I would be fresh for the reception. I don't wear much make-up and I was nervous to have my make-up done, but Kara kept everything light and natural. It turned out beautifully in photographs and stayed on well for 9 hours of running around before the ceremony and dancing through the night!

I love working with Kara. She has done my makeup twice for family portraits. Not only does she make the experience fun, I also learn a lot from her. Kara is extremely professional, she listens to the client's needs and then gives a great product.

Although I am reviewing Kara's services based on my wedding, as a disclaimer, I've had Kara's makeup on my face for every major event I've had in the last four years - galas, family portrait sessions, weddings - you name it! I can't even begin to list all the amazing qualities that make Kara the ONLY person I will ever hire for makeup. First of all, she comes to you. And lets's face it, for most days that you are having professional makeup done, to the extent you don't have to go somewhere other than where you need to be, is amazing. For my wedding she arrived early (I was late, haha) and was available to do makeup for my bridesmaids and as well as my own. She has done my makeup enough to know my style but she has a very versatile portfolio so she can go as dramatic (more my style!) or subdued as you need her to go. She stayed with me throughout the rest of the day until after the ceremony for touch-ups here and there. I shed quite a few tears (of happiness!) at my wedding, so knowing she was close by to fix my mess was fantastic. Perhaps more than anything though, is Kara's easygoing and great personality. She is fun, caring, knows what she is doing and really does a great job in giving you exactly what you want. For more dramatic looks she creates her own accessories which have always been a huge hit whenever I wear them. I couldn't give a higher recommendation that the one I give to Kara. My only recommendation is to book her early because she is popular and although she will accommodate you if she can, she devotes all the attention she needs to her clients and won't book more than she can handle. So if you're looking to get married ANYTIME IN THE NEAR FUTURE, call Kara now! :)

Kara is an amazing makeup artist and a fantastic person. We were lucky to have used Kara before for several events so she knew exactly what I wanted when it came time for the big day. She arrived promptly and stayed with me past my ceremony for post-tear touch ups. Save yourself a LOT of grief and hire Kara - you won't regret it!
