    Absolutely amazing!

    Carissa was such a sweet person to work with. She makes you so comfortable and continued to make sure we felt so good and confident. I would recommend her 10/10. She can make someone who doesn’t wear makeup feel so pretty naturally but also is amazing at full glam and all out makeup. She is truly the best out there!

    Excellent!

    I hired Carissa (Glam Guru) to do makeup for my wedding. She did my makeup as well as the makeup of 4 bridesmaids, my mom, and my grandma. Everyone loved their makeup and looked absolutely beautiful! She listened to everyone’s personal preferences and executed perfectly! Carissa was timely, organized, and SO knowledgeable. She is easy to talk to, and she helped decrease nerves on the big day. I would recommend Glam Guru to anyone!

    The best MUA around

    Carissa did an amazing job with me and my girls. We had so much fun and no worries having her there to do our makeup. She was extremely accommodating and all of my bridesmaids and I absolutely loved our final looks.

    Made my day spectacular!

    Carissa is such an amazing makeup artist and really knows how to make a girl feel special. Not only did I look amazing but my makeup LASTED. I’m a greasy girl that likes to pop, lock, and drop it on the dance floor and my makeup didn’t budge. Would definitely recommend!

    Fun and professional

    Carissa was great! She was fun and fit right in with our group, everyone enjoyed having her there. She was professional and listened to what everyone wanted. Everyone had the best things to say and was very happy with their makeup. She answered all questions and communications quickly and arrived on time. I’d recommend her 100%.

    Wedding day makeup!

    Carissa did such an amazing job on my makeup for my wedding. I felt so beautiful. It lasted all day and evening long especially during the extremely humid weather we had on our wedding day. I would recommend her to any and everyone! 🤍 Please check her out, you will not regret it!
