Kiara did the best job with my wedding makeup! They did all 10 bridesmaids/bride/and moms and everyone looked stunning. Kiara did a trial with me prior to the wedding day and knew ...
exactly the vibe I wanted when I describe it to her.
Kiara is a master of her craft! She is so insanely talented, I was honored to have her do mine and my bridesmaids' makeup on my wedding day. Her portfolio speaks for itself but I f...
elt so beautiful on my wedding day all thanks to Kiara! I wear very little makeup on a regular basis and Kiara took that into consideration when doing my soft and subtle wedding day make up. The makeup lasted ALL DAY/NIGHT and felt very light on my skin. I love that she does airbrushing. Every single bridesmaid loved her makeup, too! I definitely recommend doing a trial as my trial makeup looked nothing like my wedding day makeup as I realized that I did actually want heavier makeup on my wedding day.
Communication with Kiara was great - she always got back to me in a timely manner; she showed up on time on my wedding day, kept us on track with a little time to spare at the end for touch ups. Stop reading this and book Kiara!
I cannot recommend Kiara enough! She did an absolutely incredible job on my wedding day, making me feel confident, beautiful, and completely myself. From the trial to the big day, ...
she listened to what I wanted, gave expert recommendations, and executed everything flawlessly. My makeup lasted all night, looked stunning in photos, and felt so natural. Beyond her amazing talent, she was also such a calming presence—exactly what I needed on such an important day. If you're looking for a skilled and professional makeup artist, look no further. Thank you, Kiara, for making me feel my best!
Kiara is my hero. HERO. I had a MUA ghost me two weeks before the wedding and went I sent her a request with some of my mental spiraling she called me to check in if I was ok - ins...
tant decision to book with her and absolutely no regrets as she did an AMAZING job ❤️🥰
She felt like another friend hanging out with me and my bridal party as we watch Wicked and talked nerdy. She was exactly what I needed to finalize my day and make sure I felt the most prepared for an extremely important day I my life.
I cannot stop talking about how great she was and I only wish she also lived local so I could tell all my engaged friends to use her services - so Florida and Georgia brides, make sure you book with Kiara.
Kiara is AMAZING! She is so talented. On my wedding day, she made sure everyone felt comfortable with their make-up style, and everyone was so impressed with her work. My make-up l...
ooked great all night long. Can't recommend her enough!
Kiara and her assistant were spectacular. We had such a great time on 2/3/24 getting ready for the big day. She made me feel at ease and did flawless makeup that lasted all day an...
d night and HONESTLY looked good the next morning because I fell asleep with my makeup on. Not sure what lash glue she used but giiirrrl those suckers were ON and didn’t move when I woke up in the morning! She’s amazing, I wish she could do my makeup all the time!
Kiarra is a gem. I loved my trial look, but with her help, made a few tweaks to get the glowiest, most beautiful summery look for my wedding day. Not to mention she is a joy to tal...
k to (especially if you are a big reader like me)!! Thank you Kiarra for helping me feel so beautiful on my big day!
I have honestly never felt more beautiful! Kiara helped enhance my features, give me a bit of glam, but still look and feel like myself. I can’t say enough good things about Kiara!...
I wasn’t able to do a make up trial prior to my wedding which I was naturally nervous about. I was assured by another vendor that, with Kiara, a trial wasn’t necessary. She did a phenomenal job. Choose Kiara for your wedding!!!!
Note: In many of my later photos I did not reapply lip color. However, Kiara does provide extra for the bride! I just neglected to use it :(
JUST BOOK HER……..!!! I chose Kiara based on specific reviews that mentioned how she made people who don’t wear a ton of makeup (and who are a little scared/intimidated of makeup be...
cause it makes them feel unlike themselves) feel like natural princesses. This was exactly what I needed to hear. My trial was PERFECTION, she honored exactly what I wanted with a natural look that just elevated and enhanced my own face rather than made me look like someone else. Whenever I’ve gotten my makeup done for other weddings I’ve always had the urge to sneak to the bathroom and tone it down….not this time with Kiara. I was devastated to even have to take it off that night!!! It was really just perfect. Our wedding unfortunately had to be postponed due to Hurricane Ian, and none of my vendors were available for the new date as the timing was so tight. Losing Kiara for wedding 2.0 was the most painful and sad of all my vendors to lose. I am using her pictures of my own face from our trial together for the sole inspiration for wedding 2.0. I’m so glad I had the experience with Kiara even if it was just for my trial, because now I can show and articulate what I loved about having the right artist and application. For this reason I’m also no longer intimidated by makeup when I get it done as a bridesmaid or for other events! I hope we get the chance to cross paths again!!!!! Love you!!!!!
Absolutely perfect! Kiara is such a sweet soul who I really enjoyed spending time with as we got ready for my wedding. Our makeup was stunning, she was quick and efficient and made...
me and my girls feel so beautiful. Can’t recommend enough !
Kiara is hands down the best artist in Jacksonville and surrounding areas. She is a true artist and made myself, bridesmaids, mother, and mother in law feel comfortable in our own ...
skin and so gorgeous on my wedding day! She knows just how to bring out your best features.
Kiara may be the most incredible PERSON I've ever encountered. Not to mention her insane make-up skills! From the initial booking, to the trial, and then the big day - Kiara did no...
t disappoint at all! There is a reason she is at the top of her craft. And not only will she make you look like you walked off the cover of vogue, but she will also make you laugh so hard that you'll need to take a break from applying eyeliner.
Kiara was very professional and made sure she was at the venue prompt at 6:30am before everyone to set up. She knew I wanted a very natural look and she remembered exactly what we ...
did in the trial, and what I wanted to keep and change. She did all my bridesmaids, MOG & MOB’s makeup which looked stunning! I have oily skin, and she made sure it stayed on all day without the oily face look. The prices are comparable to every other MUA in our area, and she’s definitely worth the try and hire!
From my first correspondence with Kiara via email, I just knew she was special. Very responsive, attentive to detail, helpful, listens, gives great advice, super friendly and is ju...
st an amazing person overall! There are no words to say how pleased I am with the services that she provided and I speak for the rest of my bridal party as well!
If you are looking for someone who is a knowlegable professional but feels like your friendly next door neighbor, that's her!
Our make up was neither too much nor too little. It was absolutely perfect. She has a gift for bringing out your natural beauty AND our faces looked flawless at midnight as it did 8 hours prior.
It's not just about the day of service, it's about the entire experience... and my experience with Kiara from start to finish was one I will never forget. Highly recommended!
THIS GIRL. There is so much pressure to look perfect on your wedding day and makeup was something I was stressing about. My husband is not a fan of makeup and prefers me without an...
y so that really added to my anxiety. I didn't think perfection was possible until I looked in the mirror at myself after Kiara finished my wedding makeup. She made all of my wedding dreams come true. I wanted simplicity and elegance and that's exactly what she made happen. I had makeup on but still looked like myself. My husband was nonstop telling me how beautiful I was the whole night and how he was happy that I didn't "pound the makeup on" and still looked like me. I NEVER get zits EVER and of course woke up with a huge one the day of. She covered that thing up and you would never know it was there! Not only did she make me feel like a wedding princess, but we instantly bonded! I felt comfortable sharing exactly what I wanted and she made it happen. I already told her I want to book her again just so we can hang out! If I could give this woman more stars, I would! If you want to feel like a wedding goddess, call Kiara!
I felt like a princess. My Mother-in-Law's makeup was stunning - people are still commenting on how lovely she looked. And my bridesmaids who got their makeup done were PERFECT!
K...
iara offered a professional and thorough consultation. She was a pleasure to work with and came in on the day-of and turned us into glam queens! All of our makeup lasted the ENTIRE day and didn't feel like we were wearing 5 lbs of makeup.
