Chelsea is very friendly! She is very flexible and will not be offended if you want to make changes. The makeup products feel light and stay on great.
So happy I booked my wedding day makeup with Chelsea! My makeup the day of was flawless and lasted the entire night! It also photographer so well. Throughout the whole process Chelsea was very professional, flexible, and is just the sweetest person! At the trial we discussed the look I wanted and made a few adjustments on the day of. Her and her assistant also did my 6 bridesmaids, brother’s girlfriends, and moms makeup. They all loved their makeup and looked beautiful. Could not recommend Makeup by Kiera enough!
Chelsea was the BEST! She was professional, accommodating, and a created the most beautiful results. I am so grateful for her expertise and passion. 10/10 would recommend Make Up by Keria for any and all of your aesthetic needs!
Thank you for making me feel the most beautiful on my wedding day.
Chelsea was absolutely amazing to work with! All of our makeup for my wedding day was perfect! Chelsea is so personable and will talk about anything. She makes sure everybody is completely satisfied with their makeup, and she is willing to make changes to make sure you end up happy.
You need her for your wedding day! You will not be disappointed!
Chelsea and the second MUA we hired for the wedding exceeded our expectations! These two ladies were professional, personable and very very easy and fun to work with! After my makeup trial, I voiced any concerns with Chelsea and she truly listened and made any changes I wished to have on my big day! Also can I just say how impressive the cleanliness was as far as making sure all products and brushes were clean in between each client they saw that day! Would 12/10 recommended hiring Chelsea for your big day! My girls looked FLAWLESS!
I have had Chelsea do my makeup for my engagement pics, boudoir, and now my wedding - and I plan on using her again in the future! My makeup looked like perfection from the moment she put it on to the drunken, sweaty conclusion of the night! And in all different lighting, from ring lights, to overcast outside, to a church, to the reception where all doors and windows were closed/blocked due to the massive wind we had that day. All flawless 🍾
A few of the things I really liked about Chelsea and her services were she was very communicative, was super clean/sanitary with everything, used only clean & cruelty free products, and you could see how passionate she was about her work ♥️ One of the things that really wowed me with her from the beginning was that I have REALLY bad rosacea and whether I had a spray tan or not, you COULD NOT tell how bad of a flare up I was having - which often happens with stress and sometimes getting my pics done gives me major stress, so there was always a flare up 🙃 so when the week before my wedding I got a MF STYE IN MY EYE! I was actually pretty calm about it because I knew Chelsea would do her thing and I’d look gorgeous even if I couldn’t get it to go away completely (which I didn’t). You can’t even see the stye in any of my pics - close up or not. To also show how committed she was to keeping everything fresh and clean for each face, she made a plan on the fly - because I was a terrible client and honestly forgot to tell her I had the stye before the morning of 😬 my bad, girl. But without missing a beat, or making me feel any negative feelings on my wedding day, she said okay no worries, bride will get makeup done last and we will do a few minor changes to how we apply the makeup so no brushes or pallets get contaminated. Hair and makeup really set the tone the morning of your wedding, so when you have a good crew, you will start off the day with less stress and more laughs. Chelsea should be one you have in your corner that day.
I cannot recommend Chelsea enough! If I could give 6/5 stars, I would. She was flexible when we had to do a COVID-19 postponement, and was incredibly accommodating when it came to scheduling my trial session, and even helped to coordinate my hair trial as well. On the day of the wedding, she was able to accommodate a last minute request from my grandmother and helped calm me down when I got emotional as she was applying my makeup. (Her patience was unmatched! She must have reapplied my eye makeup 3-4 times because I kept crying!) Chelsea is an astonishing person and incredibly talented makeup artist, and I cannot recommend her enough!
She was absolutely amazing! As somebody who doesn’t know a ton about makeup she was great at explaining and had tons of tips and advice! Everything was such a smooth process from reaching out to get information thought wedding day.
Chelsea is great! Made me feel comfortable & confident. I would definitely recommend/hire her again.
Chelsea is an amazing makeup artist. I have worked with her both as a bridesmaid and a bride and I couldn't recommend her more! She is so friendly, flexible, and professional. She listens to her brides not just about their makeup needs, but to how they are doing generally. Love Chelsea! Highly recommend!
If you’re looking for a makeup artist that is reliable, upbeat, compassionate, creative, and professional, Chelsea with Makeup by Keria is your girl!
I hit it off with Chelsea the moment I met her. She was funny, genuine, and easy to talk to. I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist to be part of my big day. I will always have nothing but raving things to say about her and Wes!
Hit her up for your next event- you will NOT regret it!
I enjoyed working with Chelsea so much! She was very responsive and helpful, very organized, and so sweet. My makeup and my bridesmaids' makeup was absolutely stunning!
Great personality and very professional! Make up stayed on through the heat and lasted all day. Chelsea is the best.
I was more than satisfied! When planning details for my wedding I was on the fence about having a pro do my makeup. However, I could not have been happier with the decision to hire this company. I looked radiant all night, even through tears of joy and sweat on the dance floor. My make up did not rub off on anyone when I gave hugs and my husband was astounded by the natural and beautiful look. I also loved that they came to my house. This provided me with time to relax and truly enjoy my wedding day as I got ready to walk down the aisle. In all, well worth the price because I also paid for my maid of honor and flower girl to have their makeup done too.
Chelsea was my #1 choice for make up, so I was super, super excited when she available for our new wedding date! She had such a gentle hand, extremely friendly and professional, and she made me feel super comfortable in the make up chair. She honestly made me look and feel like a princess on my wedding day, and also did the make up for my mom, my now mother-in-law, and my maid of honor. I would 100% recommend her!
Keria did a fantastic job, I told her what I wanted and she did exactly that! I could have not picked a better makeup artist for my wedding day makeup!
Chelsea was so great to work with! As the bride she put so much focus into my trial, and it was clear that she was totally prepared on my wedding day to replicate the trial with any changes requested. It made the day of process so easy, I didn't have to worry at all. Chelsea accomplished exactly the look I was going for with my wedding makeup, and worked with me after I had a trial with a previous salon which I didn't like. My bridesmaids and I received compliments on our makeup all day and night long.
First I'd like to say, I'll be recommending Chelsea to anyone who needs make up services. I hired her for my wedding, 6 people total, and she made it all happen in just 4 hours. From the moment I met her at my trial, I felt extremely comfortable and trusted that she was not only going to make me look amazing, but was also meticulous about hygienic practices which was something I was concerned about(I've never had my make up done). All of my bridesmaids loved their looks. Most importantly, my mom was happy and it is near IMPOSSIBLE to impress her. She was on time, easy to communicate with, and extremely responsive to emails whenever i had a question. I'm also an out of state bride who came to the area just for the wedding. She made the process so smooth. I cannot thank her enough.
Chelsea was the best! She was easy to work with from start to finish, and I ended up with exactly what I wanted for my “big day”. She was super receptive to all of my requests, made the wedding party feel comfortable, and is very knowledgeable about product and application. Additionally, she left a sweet bridal kit full of essentials that came in handy later in the evening. I’m so happy that I chose Makeup by Keria, and you will be too.
Chelsea was an absolute joy to work with for my wedding. She was efficient, professional and was very thorough about keeping things hygienic throughout the application process which is obviously so important during this pandemic. She made all of my bridesmaids feel comfortable and was open to feedback. In addition, Chelsea is such a sweet person and really cares about her clients.
Chelsea is the BEST! I felt like I was GLOWING all day because of her (my wedding was part of that too). I honestly don't think my look would have been complete without her! I'm so glad I had a trial with her beforehand because it gave me alone time with her to communicate my needs/wants. She actually takes the time to listen to you and it feels like a pampering session ❤️ The day of the wedding I barely had a chance to even talk to her, but she was still so patient and kind! Plus, she gives great goodies 😉 She helped make my day complete!
Had the most relaxing and fun experience! First time doing airbrushing and she was so helpful, patient, fun yet very professional. Being the mother of the bride I was hesitant on the different makeup approach, was perfect. I have oily skin and a bit over 40 😉she rocked it out! Loved my final look for makeup and Tierra’s & Veils for hair. ❤️
Working with Chelsea was so great!! I found her at the last minute since my previous make up artist for my minimony canceled on me, and Chelsea was able to do a trial with me and come on location on my big day. She is a very knowledgeable and professional make up artist and I would absolutely recommend her! She was able to do make up for me, my sister, my mom, and my mother-in-law! Her colleague Tiara also did hair for my sister and I. They both made me/us look and feel so beautiful!!
I can't say enough amazing things about Chelsea. She is extremely helpful and accommodating, and she gave me the vision I had for my wedding makeup. I highly recommend her!!!
Chelsea is amazing! We had to rework our wedding plans a couple of times this year due to COVID and she was completely understanding each time! She is always quick to respond and amazingly professional and thorough, not to mention does a FANTASTIC job on makeup. Her and her assistant did makeup for me, 6 bridesmaids, and our moms and they were done right on time and it all looked great. I could not recommend her more!
Chelsea was the first vendor I hired after my fiancé popped the question. What drew me in was the natural beauty she brought to every bride and individual she did makeup for. Chelsea made sure I was thoroughly satisfied with my look and went above and beyond to show me that a certain set of lashes really “weren’t too much.” She was right. They were perfect and really brought my look together perfectly. Chelsea ensured I felt comfortable the entire time I was in her chair and as she did my daughters’ makeup. She made it very clear that if I was not completely happy, she was more than happy to fix the entire look. Chelsea went above and beyond for my big day and I could not have been happier.
I would 100% recommend Chelsea to anyone who needs their makeup done for any reason ever, particularly wedding day makeup though! My Matron of Honor, mom, and myself looked gorgeous! Her package includes a bridal trial as well as a makeup touch up kit. She is professional, sanitary, does quality work, and uses products that work well with sensitive skin, which I have. She even covered a massive zit that popped up on my chin two days before my wedding.
On top of being an amazing makeup artist, she is truly a pleasure to talk with! Friendly, kind, and puts you at ease. So glad I found her!
I got it in my head to treat myself to a professional makeup artist a week or two before my wedding and Make by Keira answered the call. She found a way to not only fit me in but my mom as well. My makeup lasted all day, I got many compliments on it, and I felt beautiful. Thank you for making my special day even better!
Chelsea is hands down the best makeup artist in the area! She is personable, friendly, charismatic, gentle, honest, and her work is fabulous. I’ve had my makeup done three times by Chelsea and my skin was a little different each time and she made my skin look flawless. You will not be disappointed, I promise! I will continue to use Makeup By Keria for all formal events in the future!
"BEST WEDDING MAKEUP EVER" This is what I heard from my entire wedding party and certainly my opinion too! Chelsea is such a sweet, wonderful makeup artist and was SO supportive! I researched several makeup artists for my wedding and chose Chelsea because she gives such beautiful, natural makeup and is meticulous when it comes to hygiene! She is very professional throughout the entire process with contracts and emails to keep you informed of exactly what to expect and when you are keeping track of so many details planning a wedding this is exactly the grounding that you need! She was super helpful rescheduling my trials several times due to the ever changing restrictions of COVID and always made me feel like everything was under control. I cannot thank her enough for my beautiful makeup and her encouraging words for any of my concerns. I HIGHLY recommend Chelsea for all of your makeup needs!
Chelsea did an amazing job with my make-up on my wedding day! It was a pleasure working with her, she is very professional, helpful and very friendly! I would definitely recommend her!!
Chelsea was so professional and wonderful on my wedding day. I changed my look last minute and she gave me exactly what I was looking for! Highly recommend her!
Chelsea was incredibly friendly and professional. I have never enjoyed having my makeup done, but Chelsea listened to my preferences and made me feel both beautiful and comfortable. I would highly recommend Makeup by Keria to anyone, especially on their wedding day!
Keria was absolutely amazing !! She was one of the best wedding decisions I have ever made ! ❤️
Chelsea is amazing! I don’t wear a lot of makeup normally, so I was super nervous about not looking like myself on my wedding day. Chelsea did an amazing job of keeping my makeup looking natural, but I still felt beautiful on my wedding day! The makeup lasted all day and night through a hot July day! Chelsea was kind, funny, and professionally. I couldn’t have picked a better makeup artist for my big day!
I booked Makeup by Keria for my last minute “Plan B” wedding in Lakeside, MI on July 10th. Chelsea was amazing! I am super happy that I found her and that she was available! I can’t say enough about her professionalism before, during and after my wedding! My bridal party was extremely satisfied with her work and everyone looked amazing. If she’s available for your wedding, I recommend you book her! J. Lorenz
Chelsea was great to work with and made me feel beautiful on my wedding day! Our original wedding was delayed due to Covid, so my husband and I decided to get married on our original date with immediate family. I contacted Chelsea less than three weeks before the date and she was so flexible with me. She fit in a trial before the day where she recommended products to prep my skin for the big day. She even made me a care package for the day of in case I had any makeup emergencies! I would definitely recommend her if you are getting married in the area :)
Chelsea is fabulous!! I found her on a quick google search & after looking through pictures I decided I MUST have her for my wedding day! Very professional, quickly responds to emails, funny gifs :) & a great person! She sends awesome links to different resources. Flexible with scheduling my make up trial. My wedding day make up looked even better than the trial that I thought was so good! She really exceeded all my expectations! #ChooseChelsea #MakeUpByKeria
Chelsea was great! She did a great job making my makeup look very natural. She also provided me a touch-up kit so I could add extra lipstick etc as the night wore on. She was super friendly - just a great experience working with her for my wedding!
Chelsea made me look and feel absolutely AMAZING on my wedding day this past weekend. This was the 5th time she’s done my makeup and every single time she exceeds my expectations. She is a wonderful person and goes above and beyond for her clients! BOOK HER NOW!! Thank you Chelsea!
Definitely would book her again! Very professional and I really liked how she kept everything better sanitary. It make someone feel better knowing things are clean and sanitary
Chelsea was great to work with. Very personable and easy to get along with. After the trial I decided I wanted a little different look and on wedding day she pulled it off. Highly recommend
Chelsea is the best in the game! She is so sweet and thoughtful. I had no worries when it came to makeup- she was even able to fit in a couple more people the morning of the wedding because she was so efficient with her time. Highly recommend.
Chelsea was amazing, professional and my bridal party loved meeting her! She is just a beautiful person all around!
My bridesmaids, my mother and mother-in-law, and I felt stunning all day long! I don't enjoy wearing tons of makeup, so I wanted to try a natural airbrushed look. It feels so light on the skin and doesn't feel like it clogs your pores. Makeup even lasted through the tears!
I even had a possible issue about a week before the wedding and she was super accommodating and understanding towards the situation. She was willing to work through it and it went smoothly. Definitely recommending her to other brides to be! Don't know what I would have done without her!
She was very professional and fun to work with throughout our trial and getting ready for the wedding process!
I was ecstatic about my makeup! I was a little worried about the airbrushing, as I don’t do my makeup often or know a lot of tricks. However I could not believe how good it turned out. I wish my makeup looked that good everyday. I got lots of compliments! The makeup artist let me know what she was doing next and if I liked how it was looking or if I wanted something different. Defiantly a wonderful experience. I would like to use Keria for my future wedding!
I had my makeup done for my wedding. My skin is oily and I was concerned about how my look would turn out. I didn't have to worry though! My makeup was amazing! It held all night, I had the look I was going for, and the pictures turned out great! I also received a makeup travel kit with thoughtful items placed in there for use throughout the night. I would recommend and use this service again!
She is so awesome at make up and a great conversationalist! I will recommend her to everyone I know getting married or having a special occasion in the future
Chelsea was above and beyond my expectations! I worked with her 3 times (trial, wedding day, and bridal shower/bachelorette party). I highly recommend her!!
After meeting Chelsea at several Wedding expos, I felt she was the one for me. I booked her up and made arrangements to get my bridal make-up trial done. She coordinated with my wedding day hair stylist to have both trials done at the same appointment so that I can get a feel of the entire look. She even made a special accommodation for me for my day of trial. Her studio was fun and just an overall chill atmosphere. She really works with you and wants you to be happy. She is fun and a great person to work with. Chelsea takes the time to discuss your skin and what your vision is and works with you until you get the look you want. Her airbrushing makes your skin look amazing without looking like you have layers of cakey make-up on. She turns you into a princess all the while making sure you don't look "over done." She will come to you or you can go to her, trials are done in her studio though. She is incredibly reasonably priced and I cannot speak to how happy I was with my day of make-up. My make-up lasted all day, and I was sad when I had to wash it off and remove my awesome lashes. She is a super cool chick and I would be happy to take her up on her services again. Thank-you Chelsea.
She is fantastic to work with, and does a beautiful, professional job. I felt very comfortable with her and my bridesmaids were all impressed also.
Chelsea is extremely timely with communication, amazing price for her outstanding service, and it definitely shows that she knows exactly what she’s doing! Plus, she makes it feel personable like you’ve been friends forever! I highly recommend!
I am so happy I went with Makeup by Keria for my wedding day. She was prompt in arriving the morning of the wedding, finished on-time, and the makeup stayed all day long! She did a great job with my trial as well so when it came time for the day of the wedding, she knew exactly what she needed to do. Thank you for a great experience!
I've never been so happy with my makeup, the level of professionalism and quality of makeup was top of the line. My makeup stayed perfect for the moment it was applied thru the sweltering heat into the next day. I'd recommend her for all special occasions.
Amazing job! We danced the night away with makeup staying perfect the whole time..in July!!
Chelsea provided makeup for myself and my bridal party. She’s so friendly and easy to talk to, which made the trial a lot of fun. Then on my wedding day, she knew exactly the game plan and made me look beautiful! It was exactly what I wanted and I’m so thankful I didn’t have to stress about it at all. Thank you Chelsea!
Chelsea is a true professional! During my trial run she answered any questions I had and explained everything she was doing. I’m someone who only wears the occasional lipstick and Chelsea was so respectful of listening to my natural make up requests. For my wedding day she was able to meet us on location, worked with everyone respectfully, and once again explained what she was doing and listened to each individual, matching their tastes in make up application. It was a true pleasure working with her!
Keira was so understanding and took all of our unique personalities and facial needs into consideration before doing our makeup. She was accommodating to our time frame and was so nice to work with. 5 stars!
I LOVED Chelsea! She was always prompt and professional and accommodating. The little emergency bag she gives you is the CUTEST! She helped make my day so special. I will be recommending her to anyone I know looking for a MAU!
Chelsea was the best makeup artist I could have asked for! She made me feel confident and beautiful on my day and listened to what I wanted. I would recommend her for any brides/bridesmaids/mothers/etc. she catered to everyone’s needs!
