Five stars! I can’t recommend her enough. She came to my home last minute and showed up completely prepared - lashes, the right shades for my skin tone, everything. What impressed me most was how knowledgeable she was about makeup for skin over 35. My photos came out perfect. My skin looked luminous, not dry or cakey, and the lashes lasted three full days. But honestly, what set her apart was how she listened. She looked through my reference photos, was refreshingly honest about what was and wasn’t achievable, and then delivered exactly what I needed — maybe even more. There was no guessing, no pushing her own vision. Just genuine collaboration and a result I was truly proud of. If you’re looking for someone skilled, prepared, and completely trustworthy with your face before a big moment — she’s your person

I’m a bit late in posting this since I just received my official photos. I was planning my wedding in NC in February 2026 while being out of town and didn’t know anyone for makeup. I came across Theresa Makeupbon the Knot website. I loved her natural look. I had my fears because of my dark skin tone, not everyone can handle this, but I got exactly what I wanted for my wedding day—I don’t usually wear makeup and didn’t want my appearance to feel different. Theresa was incredibly punctual, detail-oriented, and thoughtful. She even shared skincare tips with me months before the wedding, which I really appreciated. When I leave a review, I make sure it’s honest, so, I can confidently say Theresa truly gives her best to her clients. She made sure everyone was happy and took amazing care of my bridesmaids, they looked like princesses. The overall look was natural yet glamorous, and the makeup lasted all day despite heavy rain, dancing, and different lighting throughout the church. And the photos! Absolutely beautiful. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.
