Makeup by Caitlyn Michelle

ion to execution was seamless. She took feedback from my trial and executed flawlessly! She did a great job on everyone - from junior bridesmaids to my girls to me, even though everyone had different tastes with how much makeup they typically wear. Everyone loved their makeup and she made everyone feel at ease. Can't recommend Caitlyn enough!

esmaids were thrilled with their looks. We’ll definitely be booking a makeup lesson with the Charlotte girls because we’re all obsessed! I can’t thank you enough – you’re amazing!

lso such a genuine soul. My girls and my family looked absolutely stunning. Caitlyn kept in great communication and made me feel at ease on such a hectic day. I highly recommend her to everyone and I hope to hire her for another event at some point in the near future!!! Thank you Caitlyn!!

cest person I have ever worked with and if you don't book her for your event you are really missing out. I enjoyed learning a lot from her and really liked how clean and sanitary all of her products/tools were!

dors. She is incredibly talented, professional, and knowledgeable. From the start, she was always there to answer all my questions and brought my bridal makeup vision to life at my trial. On my wedding day, I was running on 4 hours of sleep and fighting off a terrible sinus infection (to any brides reading - PLEASE remember take care of yourself the days leading up to your day). I was so worried this would be clearly evident in all our photos but Caitlyn came to the rescue and worked her magic on me! I felt so beautiful and confident. All my bridesmaids and family members looked STUNNING and were also so happy with all their looks. I'm forever grateful for her care, patience, and positivity. I couldn't recommend her more, she is truly the BEST! Thank you so much Caitlyn for all that you do. Love you and your work!

feel like the easiest, most natural thing in the world. She was so patient with me as we did two trials, and I was having such a hard time finding my look -due to insecurity, anxiety, all the things on my end. At the end of the second trial, I was so happy when Caitlyn helped me finalize my bridal look. On the day of the wedding, Caitlyn was so chill, and made my people look so gorgeous - she even gave me a heads-up when my mother tried to tell her to change my look at the last second (yeah, that was crazy!) and she didn't falter for one second. She was kind and sweet and listened to me. She is someone you want to have in the room while you get ready for your big day. Even when there was a hiccup with payment, she was kind about it, which was something I really appreciated - a very awkward situation made okay with her understanding, and patience for me. Not to mention - fair pricing for 8 heads, including the bride! Caitlyn is absolutely worth every penny. Every bride is a painting - let the artist work! You'll be glad you did.

ok I was going for (natural, soft glam, and of course a bit of glitter). I wasn’t able to do a trial with Caitlyn because it was a destination wedding, but I felt so confident that she would make my vision come to life, and she absolutely did! Caitlyn had a very calming presence, but also was able to connect with each of us as she did our makeup. I couldn’t recommend her enough. She gave me the best experience I could have asked for, and made me so so beautiful AND like myself. Book her now!!

itlyn came into the picture, recommended by my future sister-in-law. From the outset, Caitlyn showcased the exceptional skill and professionalism that sets a top-tier makeup artist apart from the rest. One of the most valuable lessons I learned through my initial trial with another artist was the undeniable importance of investing in high-quality makeup services. It's not just about looking good but feeling confident and radiant in one of the most photographed days of your life. If you're not happy with your makeup, it has a ripple effect, casting a shadow on your photos and the overall joy of the day. Caitlyn, with her expertise, turned this fear into an absolute triumph. Caitlyn's presence and artistry during the getting-ready process were nothing short of magical. Caitlyn didn’t just apply makeup; she created a serene and joyful atmosphere that was the perfect kickoff to the wedding festivities. Her ability to bring out the best in each member of the bridal party, making us feel confident and stunning, was a testament to her dedication and talent. The endless compliments received throughout the day were a direct reflection of Caitlyn’s meticulous attention to detail and her passion for her craft. She ensured that everyone felt like the best version of themselves, which is the true mark of a gifted makeup artist. Her calming presence was a balm during those nerve-wracking moments before the ceremony, proving that Caitlyn is not just a makeup artist but a vital part of the wedding experience. I am eternally grateful for the care and passion Caitlyn put into her work on our special day. She didn’t just make us look beautiful; she made us feel beautiful. Thank you, Caitlyn, for playing such a crucial role in making my wedding day unforgettable. Your work is truly outstanding, and I cannot recommend her highly enough to any future brides looking for not just a makeup artist, but an unforgettable experience.

uick to respond and so professional and clear about the whole process. Caitlyn is so attentive to detail and made me feel so comfortable. I loved getting to know her during my trial and was absolutely stunned by how much I loved my bridal makeup. It was so natural and me but elevated. My wedding day was the most confident and beautiful I had ever felt thanks to Caitlyn. My bridesmaids loved their makeup so much one of them booked Caitlyn for her own recent wedding. If you are a Charlotte area bride look no further for your wedding makeup!

was thrilled with how it turned out! Five stars across the board.

l and organized but she is also good vibes and a fun time all day long! Prior to even meeting for my trial, Caitlin shared a ton of information ranging from skin care to other vendor recommendations for hair, spray tan, teeth whitening and more. I was so impressed by everything she already had prepared. On my wedding day, I completely changed what we had planned during my trail because I found a different look from her Instagram. She didn't even hesitate and she nailed it! My bridesmaids all LOVED their make up and we laughed about how that almost NEVER happens! I'm so thankful Caitlin was recommended to me and want to pay it forward!! Do NOT hesitate!!! Book Caitlin right away!! You won't be disappointed!!!

yn was on time and professional and collaborated well with my hairstylist. She is quick and responsive to emails and is great at making accommodations to fit the needs of your day. In addition, during the trial process she really took the time to get to know me and understand my bridal vision. I couldn't recommend her services enough. My SIL was so impressed she already booked her for her wedding! Don't miss out on booking with Caitlyn - you will not regret it!

mend her to everyone. You won’t be disappointed, promise.

ers and was super organized. When it came time for the wedding day, she was so kind and made every single person in the bridal party look STUNNING. Her make-up style elevates natural beauty. She also did makeup for my mom and was so great at catering to every age group! Thank you again! Cannot recommend you enough!!

is SO personable, organized, and professional! I had ZERO doubt my makeup on my wedding day would look absolutely amazing. Having that peace of mind was so wonderful. She had all of my bridesmaids and mom looking amazing too!

amily) and our big wedding this past June. I was in awe of how beautiful she made me look and feel, while also enjoying her genuine conversations and chats about life. I was VERY picky on makeup and searched for a long time initially because I wanted a natural glow for myself and my bridesmaids. And Caitlyn was the perfect person to do that! She made all of us look so gorgeous, but we still looked like ourselves. If you are looking for someone in the Charlotte area, this is your girl! She is a true expert and a pleasure to work with and I could not recommend her more!!!!

lpful and easy to work with. She took the time to understand my vision and made me feel relaxed throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Caitlyn!

so helpful and just one of the reason I chose her for my wedding make up! For someone who doesn’t wear a lot of make up, I knew Caitlyn was the perfect fit because she specializes in soft glam and everything thing I’ve seen her do on her platforms just look so natural! She was so great with communication and answering any questions I had. I absolutely loved that she did a bridal make up trial leading up to my big day to make sure we got everything right on my wedding day! She was so knowledgeable on all her products and recommending what she felt like was going to look the best! I completely trusted her the whole way. She was so relaxed throughout the day and such a joy to be around with all of my bridesmaids as well as my family members! My bridesmaids absolutely adored her too, whether they showed her inspirations pictures or didn’t know what they wanted Caitlyn knew exactly what to do and they looked amazing! Caitlyn made me feel so naturally pretty on my wedding day and my bridal make up lasted the entire night!

resence and incredibly supportive! My day of makeup was truly flawless and lasted all day/night through some impressive North Carolina heat! My bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother in law also looked incredible throughout the entire day. She is also a wealth of knowledge about skin prep for makeup, she was available when I needed her the year before my wedding with information and answered any questions related to skincare recommendations. Caitlyn is a true professional, she is incredibly knowledgeable, and also a blast to be around!

yn - our pictures wouldn’t be the same without you (seriously, I’m notorious for losing an eyelash by midday) 10/10 - book her.

or on my wedding day. From booking to the wedding day, Caitlyn was amazing. I loved my trial and it felt like hanging out with a friend (who just happens to make magic with makeup)! On the wedding day, I could relax knowing I had Caitlyn doing my makeup and that I'd love how I'd look. I received so many compliments on my makeup and all my girls (including the moms!) loved their makeup. It showed up beautifully in the photos on top of that! Anytime I need professional makeup in the future, Caitlyn will be my first call.

dding day, even after I woke up with a blemish on my cheek - Caitlyn reassured me that it wouldn't be a problem and sure enough - it was out of site and out of mind. My bridal party also loved her and her work! I have already recommended her for a friends upcoming wedding and will continue to do so. 10/10 experience and will hire her for any makeup needs in the future.

hat my vision was but also made great suggestions on things she thought would go well together. I even cried seeing how amazing my mother looked (who doesn’t love makeup) and she was over the moon happy with the way she looked. We also plan to take her classes soon :) THANK YOU!!

d someone that does a good job, but also someone that you can trust. I had several people recommend Caitlyn to me when I was looking for a MUA and I immediately booked her when she told me she was available. Caitlyn presented herself in a professional, kind, and friendly way from beginning to end. I booked Caitlyn for my makeup trial, mine and my bridal parties wedding day makeup, and for after ceremony touch ups. She did the most amazing job on my makeup both times and helped me feel beautiful and confident. Caitlyn also did a great job on my bridal parties makeup and was quick and efficient to make sure everyone was done on time. I'm a cryer, and Caitlyn was able to keep my makeup going strong while I teared up in the makeup chair, cried with her before the ceremony, and cried during my ceremony. I'm not sure I would have been as comfortable with anyone else and she truly helped put my nerves at ease before the ceremony. I cannot say enough good things about Caitlyn! If you're looking for a fantastic MUA and overall, a great person, Caitlyn is your girl! 06/03/2023

te many tears!!! Caitlyn will be my makeup artist for life. I’ve used her for weddings and several other events. I don’t trust anyone else with my face.

ng weekend. My mom and bridesmaids loved her as well, and I've had multiple people reach out to me inquiring who did my beautiful makeup!

f, which is so valuable when you’re planning a wedding. I had so much fun getting to know her at my trial and was so excited to have her as part of my big day. She came prepared to my wedding day and made additional recommendations for my look that were absolutely perfect. I was obsessed with my wedding day makeup and my bridal party was too! Thank you SO much for everything!!

work is also just incredible. She gives great advice as well to assure you love your makeup! Her trial was very helpful, it allowed me to change something for the day of that I was uncertain about after the trial! The makeup stayed on perfect all day of my wedding and looked stunning in photos. She arrived on time and was so lovely to have with us to get ready on the day. I really truly cannot recommend Caitlyn enough! I’m thankful she does special occasions and makeup lessons so I can continue to learn and have her incredible work on my face :) Thank you Caitlyn!!

ver imagined! Caitlyn is so professional and knowledgeable, and also so welcoming, warm, and inviting. I don’t have much knowledge regarding make-up, and Caitlyn was so helpful with recommendations. The makeup was flawless (and it didn’t feel heavy or cakey), and it lasted ALL DAY, seriously. Also, I had a breakout pop up last minute on the day of my wedding, and she covered everything so perfectly! Caitlyn was so organized and calming on the day of, and she knocked it out of the park for myself and my 7 bridesmaids. My bridal party couldn’t stop raving about how amazing their make-up was, and Caitlyn did such an incredible job customizing for each person’s preferences and skin tones! I can’t recommend Caitlyn enough; trust me this will be the best decision you make!!!

derful to work with. On the big day, she showed up early and prepared and was a sense of calm amongst the chaos. I have since hired her back for large events and even consider her a friend as well! Working with Caitlyn was a dream and I 10/10 recommend!!! (Unless I have an event I am hiring her for, then I'll definitely be needing her services :) LOL)

he most important days of my life (my wedding day), but also for my bridal shower and a photoshoot. I told her I wanted "GA-LAM" glam and she definitely delivered! She also did the most beautiful soft and natural looks on the mothers and friends in my bridal party who wanted to go that route. She is the sweetest person, funny, professional, loves what she does, and is so talented at it too - the whole package! I can't wait to find another excuse (or maybe no reason at all!) to have my makeup done by her again!!

She listens to you and then works her magic. Highly recommend! You will not be disappointed

trial and wedding day makeup for me and my bridesmaids. Everyone was thrilled with how their makeup turned out. She takes thorough notes to make sure she remembers everything. She also uses very high end products. All around a great experience and I won’t get my makeup done by anyone else!

veryone absolutely loved their makeup and the products Caitlyn uses are top notch. Strongly recommend hiring her!

n feel like I had makeup on and I wasn't worried at all about it smudging or coming off. All of my bridesmaids loved Caitlyn because she listened and was able to do natural looks for everyone. Highly, highly, highly recommend!

keup, my 7 bridesmaids, and my mother’s makeup. She sent a schedule ahead of time to ensure that every one had time for hair and makeup. She had a huge variety of high quality products to ensure everyone still looked like themselves but looked beautiful. I can’t sing Caitlyn’s praises high enough!

makeup visions come to life for my boudoir photos, and wedding day. Highly recommend her to anyone needing wedding makeup or for any occasion!!! She’s also an expert at product recommendations

istens to what you're looking for to get it just right. She is so organized, which made me feel at ease on the big day. Thank you, Cait!

ot of makeup regularly but she made me feel stunning and I couldn't imagine having gone with anyone else. She did my entire bridal party as well as the moms and they could not stop raving about her makeup artistry skills! She was very organized and incredibly kind throughout the whole planning process. You will not regret booking her for your day of makeup!

quick to respond, and answered some questions for me even after learning that she is booked on my date! Bummed I can't have her but some other bride is very lucky!

her almost instantly for my upcoming wedding and had ZERO regrets because I know I will look my best all thanks to Caitlyn!

eup done by Caitlyn several times now and each time she exceeds my expectations and I leave more than happy with the result. I knew that when it came time for my own wedding, there was no one else I would want. She is so sweet, easy to work with, professional, very knowledgeable, and does an absolutely incredible job. Caitlyn did airbrush makeup and false lashes on 8 women in my bridal party and everyone loved it!! She worked with the bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom individually to meet their varying makeup preferences seamlessly. I told Caitlyn that I don’t wear much makeup daily and wanted to look glam, but still feel like myself – she did just that. Everyone told me all night that my makeup was amazing and the best part was that it also lasted all day and night!!!!! I didn’t need to worry about a single thing on my wedding day working with Caitlyn and this is the best feeling as a bride when there’s so much going on. I highly, highly, highly recommend Makeup by Caitlyn Michelle! Thanks so much Cait!!

remely talented MUA, she’s also organized, professional and personable. While getting ready with my bridesmaids, it felt like Caitlin was one of us! She’s sweet, fun and easygoing — qualities you want in someone you’re spending the morning of your wedding with! Another thing I appreciated about Caitlyn was the quality of brands/products she used on me. In other weddings I have been in, I have seen other MUAs use cheap/lower quality makeup. Caitlyn definitely has an amazing kit filled with quality products that really make a difference in achieving an end look!

ch good hands, I booked her right away. On my wedding day, I told her I wanted to do something a little different than what I asked for at my trial—after overthinking things in the month or so in between, as brides do—and she absolutely nailed it. She is wonderful at listening to what you want and then executing the exact look you're going for. She also uses high-quality makeup, is an absolute joy to spend time with (always has a smile on her face!), and works efficiently. If I had to do it again, I'd 100% still book her over anyone else. I felt like an absolute smokeshow on my wedding day, and Caitlyn was a big part of helping me feel so amazing.
