Makeup by Andrea Kooharian

was even more beautiful than I had imagined. Her attention to detail, skill, and ability to enhance natural beauty while making me feel like the best version of myself was truly amazing. Beyond her talent, Andrea had such a calming and positive energy, which made getting ready such a fun and relaxing experience. My makeup lasted flawlessly throughout the evening! If you're looking for a makeup artist who is not only incredibly talented but also kind, professional, and an absolute joy to be around, I cannot recommend Andrea and her team enough. She made my wedding day even more special, and I will always be so grateful!

so bright and bridal, while still feeling light - and it stayed on perfectly all night. I felt so confident in my final look and really enjoyed the time I spent with Andrea during my trial and while getting ready. Could not recommend her enough!

d she took incredibly detailed notes and followed up after to ensure we found the exact look I wanted for wedding day. Day of the wedding she was extremely kind, patient and calm and everyone looked stunning on wedding day. I am so happy and lucky to have gotten to work with Andrea for my wedding! I highly recommend working with Andrea!

hat I had, and truly made myself, my mother and my bridesmaids all feel beyond beautiful on my wedding day. I would work with Andrea again in a heartbeat, so if you're considering her for your makeup, go ahead and book her! You will not be disappointed!

ws how to “enhance” your features while still making sure you look like yourself. Best decision I made was to work with Andrea!

ns I had, even if it wasn't related to her services. I forgot a nice hanger for my wedding dress and her co-makeup artist, Lynn, was able to find one of her own for me to use. Andrea makes you feel like family and I will forever be grateful for her. The makeup was absolutely stunning. I got numerous compliments on it and it lasted all night long, even when I was sweating from all the dancing. I am so happy that Andrea was a part of my special day. I would highly recommend her to everyone! Thank you Andrea for everything!!!

22-84). We were all thrilled with our makeup, which remained flawless all day and night! The entire process, from trial to wedding day, was wonderful. Thank you Andrea!

trial to the actual day she was so sweet and positive. She took my vision that I had for my make-up and absolutely made it a reality. I cannot recommend her enough!! Thank you, Andrea for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!

MOH on my wedding day in May 2023 and we all looked and felt incredibly beautiful. Andrea listened closely to what we each wanted for our makeup looks and delivered amazing results. I loved that I still looked like myself, but in an elevated way. Aside from the makeup on my face, I also had a few small scars/blemishes I had asked Andrea if she could cover up as well and she really took the time to make sure everything was covered and looked perfect before I put on my wedding dress. She is truly an expert in the field and it shows in her work and work ethic. Besides being an amazing makeup artist she is also a wonderful and kind person and I really loved having her there with me during my getting ready process. I cannot recommend Andrea enough! Thank you so much for everything! :)

2023 wedding. The makeup for all of us looked so natural and beautiful. I had a trial run where Andrea gave me exactly the look I wanted so, on my wedding day, I had no stress about having to make decisions. In advance, she chose lip color for each lady based on the color of her dress and checked to be sure everyone was happy with the selection. On the day of the wedding, as we all were having our makeup applied, she was instrumental in setting a light and happy mood. Guests commented all evening about how wonderful our makeup looked - so fresh and natural. We all looked like ourselves with our best features enhanced! I highly, highly recommend Andrea. Her co-worker Dee-Dee was also absolutely fantastic. She did a terrific job with the makeup for several of the girls in the wedding and for my 94-year old grandmother who, when she saw herself in the mirror after her makeup application, teared up with joy! What a fantastic experience we all had!!

the bridesmaids perfectly. Some of my ladies went for a little more shimmer and sparkle and everyone turned out looking so elegant. My makeup stayed perfect through the rain, my reception and into the late late hours of our after party. They are a pleasure to work with as well as extremely talented. We had an amazing time and looked like our best selves! Thank you so much <3

sive leading up to the wedding and was wonderful to work with! She answered all my questions, and really listened to each bridesmaid to make sure they were comfortable with their makeup look. She’s not only an amazing makeup artist, she’s a lovely person. I highly recommend booking with Andrea for your wedding!

consideration. For example, when I asked for a slight change in the lip color, she was on it - no problem. (She even let me waffle back and forth a bit, and her patience was appreciated!) My makeup stayed put and got me tons of compliments all night long. She also made my mom and sister, neither of whom are big makeup wearers, look both totally natural and also perfectly polished and appropriate for a wedding, including in pictures. My wedding was on the heels of a giant storm, and I was sorting through stressful logistics and changes up until the very moment I sat in her chair. While I envisioned a celebratory and relaxed wedding morning, I ended up with a lot on my plate. Andrea's energy was *perfect* for this moment. When she was doing my makeup, I felt like I could finally let go of the logistics and sink into the bride role. She is kind, caring, warm, and professional. Any bride would be lucky to work with her. She'll make you look and feel like a million bucks. Thank you, Andrea, for being such a wonderful part of my wedding. I can't believe it took me so long to write this review....my procrastination is not a reflection of how much I loved working with you!

keup, but she has such a positive and calming energy about her that made me feel extra comforted on the day of my wedding. My makeup came out flawlessly and stayed on perfectly all day (even after some happy tears). She also did a spectacular job on my bridesmaids. I would recommend Andrea 100% if you’re considering hiring her. Andrea, thank you for everything - I’m so glad my cousin recommended you!

n my wedding day, but still very much myself which was important to me. Andrea's kind-hearted and easygoing nature put everyone at ease and helped us have a very peaceful morning. My makeup also lasted all night with very minimal smudging. Thank you Andrea!

ists before the wedding, so I went with my gut instinct when I met her. She was so kind and has such a calming presence. Our makeup came out beautifully! She listen to our requests and everything came out perfectly. I HIGHLY recommend her.

. She is truly the sweetest and exactly the type of person you want on your vendor team. Her work was fantastic, and I could not have been happier. She clearly is a master of her art, and if I had to pick a makeup artist again i would choose her over and over. If you’re looking for a makeup artist for your big day look no further, I promise you won’t be disappointed.

d and felt gorgeous, my makeup stayed in place even after a few joyful tears. Thanks Andrea!!

up for for my sister, niece, and friend. We left feeling glamorous and confident- at midnight we still looked radiant and beautiful. Thank you Andrea for being a part of such a special day. You are the BEST and I can’t wait to work with you at son #2’s wedding!

o change our date due to COVID with no issue, which helped to alleviate so much stress during a very stressful time. She also came to our home to do our trial and my whole family loved her. On the day of my wedding, she brought an excellent assistant and the two of them were on time, calm and prepared. Andrea made us all look absolutely stunning but she did that by playing up natural features. I've had my make up done several times for other weddings/events and I can honestly say Andrea was the best artist I've ever worked with and I WISH I could have her do my make up every day. After she did my make up, she stayed until we were ready to leave so that she could do last minute touch ups. She made me feel like I was the most beautiful bride in the world, in a truly genuine way. I hope I have the opportunity to work with her in the future!

absolutely gorgeous and her team is awesome. I absolutely loved my wedding day makeup and am so grateful to Andrea for making the day so awesome!!

eone who does not wear a lot of makeup on a daily basis, I was concerned about finding someone who would create an elevated look that still felt like me. Andrea came highly recommended, and she did not disappoint! From our first call with Andrea, we knew it was a good match! She exudes kindness and her sense of humor is evident from the start. Not only did she make our rehearsal and wedding day pain free (and more beautiful), she made it fun and memorable! Andrea took the time to speak with each of us to understand our look and goals and executed perfectly for each event. We could not recommend her more highly!

al faces and use her expertise to come up with the right colors for each of us. We all looked incredible, Andrea is so talented at what she does! She has a warm and calming vibe that I very much appreciated, especially while waiting to see if the days rain would stop in time for the ceremony. Andrea made me feel so beautiful on such a special day, I would use her again and again for all of my makeup needs!

l party absolutely glow! She was incredibly professional throughout the process and overall just a joy to be around. I am so happy to have met and had her there on such a special memorable day. Everyone looked gorgeous thanks to her and her assistant Lynne. They timed everything perfectly the morning of, so I didn’t need to worry about a thing. I highly recommend choosing Andrea for your big day - you won’t regret it!

ors and the proper products to complement my complexion. I was so happy with the trial and did not want to change a thing. She organized the times that the bridesmaids and mothers would get their makeup done. It was so helpful to have a schedule ahead of time. Everyone was so pleased with the skills of Andrea and her assistant on my wedding day. They took their time and added the perfect touches to everyone's face. I also appreciate her kindness and I am so happy that I got to know her. I would hire her again in an instant. Thanks Andrea for all that you did for my big day!

able with my original makeup artist and what she was going to do. I loved Andrea the minute she picked up the phone. She calmly reassured me that even though I was asking for her help last minute, she could do it! I had a trial the day before my wedding - I went to her house and immediately felt like I'd made a new friend. She was so kind, so friendly, and so easy to talk to. Not to mention, she NAILED my makeup. I do TV for a living and so I'm used to doing my own makeup and how that looks, but she made me look and feel like a real BRIDE. One of my biggest insecurities is my eyebrows - and I've had people who watch me on TV tell me I need to fill them in -- but the way Andrea did it, she made me still look like ME. She told me she WANTED me to look like me. She didn't want to add features to me - she wanted to use what I had and make me shine. I loved this SO, so much. It made me feel like my natural beauty was enough. I left the trial and went into the wedding the next day COMPLETELY confident that my makeup was going to be amazing. On the wedding day, she showed up early...and we spent some time just me and her talking while she set up. I cherished this time we spent together, getting to know one another on an incredibly deep level. She dealt with a complication with my mother-in-law flawlessly, kindly coached my sister (who panics when her eyes are touched) through the makeup process, and also helped my mom (who never wears makeup) feel beautiful and confident. I'm not kidding when I say the three of us still talk about her and how much we loved her. She did my makeup that day with the utmost care - like I was a painting she was going to display in an art gallery. And I can't tell you how beautiful I felt when I saw myself...I still love looking at the pictures. I look like a bride, but I look like me. And that was ALL her. I have to say, too, the most special part...was when she was all said and done...she waited to see me in my dress before she left. She could have easily packed up and headed home, but she waited patiently as I got my dress on, which took forever because I had a bunch of stubborn buttons! I loved showing her the full look. And the fact that she stayed to see showed me that she cared about ME. We had made a real connection. A friendship. I hugged her and assured her that our paths would cross again, and since then, we've still kept in contact. I sent her pictures after the fact, and just recently sent a Christmas card. She keeps me updated on her life, too. I know and love that in Andrea, I've found a lifelong friend. I adore her and couldn't recommend her enough. She is as down to earth as it gets, and the most incredible makeup artist in the world. She will make the most amazing impact on your wedding, and if you're anything like me, she will make a BEAUTIFUL impact on your life! LOVE YOU, ANDREA!

e so unbelievably happy with how they all came out. Andrea - you are so sweet and an absolutely delight to work with! I cannot thank you enough for everything you did for me! I am so so happy I found you!! Thank you!!

the make up came out! Truly appreciate you ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

when I had to reschedule my wedding due to COVID, she was very supportive and rescheduled easily. Prior to my wedding day, I had my makeup done plenty of time as a bridesmaid and for events, but Andrea made my wedding makeup feel differentiated, elevated, and natural at the same time. She customized each detail and color to me/my palette. On the day of, she had such a calming presence while we were getting ready (made sure I had plenty to eat and drink) and kept us on schedule. Her partner Lynne was great as well. The entire wedding party looked gorgeous. Absolutely recommend, Andrea is worth it.

oot, boudoir shoot, rehearsal dinner, and wedding day. I was amazed at how much I loved my makeup after the engagement shoot, and somehow each session after that exceeded my expectations still! In addition to being the best at what she does, she is also incredibly fun and pleasant! I feel so lucky that she was such a big part of our journey leading up to the wedding day, I miss her already!! If I could do it all over again, Andrea would still be the first vendor I contacted when I started planning. If you're looking for a makeup artist for your big day, look no further!! You've found the best right here. I love Andrea!!

l in every step of my process and made sure to go above and beyond to make sure we were all happy with her work. She is an expert when it comes to makeup and will truly create the look of your dream. To summarize things, both my mom and grandma what pictures with her after she finished and teared up of happiness with her!

ial, and put me completely at ease. On the wedding day she was a calming, positive, presence - and honestly just really nice to chat with! And most importantly, she made me look better than my best self. I absolutely LOVE how my makeup turned out because it looked so natural - and didn't budge all day or night! Do not hesitate to have her do your makeup for your wedding. It will be the easiest decision of the entire process and you won't regret it!

omfortable conversation. On my wedding day she brought an incredible assistant who made my mom and mother-in-law feel absolutely gorgeous. We got a little behind schedule with hair and Andrea adjusted with ease. Not only is she incredible at her craft, she is a lovely person and a beautiful soul. I felt so beautiful and my makeup was absolutely perfect. I would highly recommend Andrea!

me through all with all the patience in the world. And the makeup was incredible!!! I couldn't be happier with the result. She understood exactly what I wanted. I contacted her a week before our wedding - we did a last minute reschedule - and she was on it without an issue. I had a hair appointment at another place before meeting with her at the house where we were going to get married and she was all set up and ready to start on the makeup as I got off the car. She was on top of everything, super prepared with lights, chair, a little gift bag for me... couldn't have asked for anything better. I would recommend Andrea with my eyes closed. No doubt.

with as well. Andrea was also incredibly accommodating as I added an extra person on last minute and she didn’t miss a beat! Wish I lived closer to her to hire for future events!

de my planning process so much easier. Her work is absolutely incredible! She pays attention to every detail, and working with her was a very pleasant and collaborative experience. My makeup came out flawless, and I have never felt more beautiful and comfortable. I would highly recommend Andrea to anyone on the cape looking for a makeup artist!
