Client Testimonials
"The marketing that we do with our organization is important and that includes the professional photos that we use for our therapists. Kristen has become the only makeup artist that we will send our employees to. She is able to get them appointments within a great time frame and provides a flexible schedule. She has worked with our teen employees all the way to employees in older adulthood. She customizes a look for each individual to accentuate their beauty and help them feel comfortable regardless of the amount of makeup they are used to wearing. Her work is impeccable and we know the quality we get every time we use her services. It speaks volumes that every single one of our employees has enjoyed their experience working with her. She is one of the best in the industry and we are lucky she is local to help us provide the professional look we are needing for our organization."
"Kristen is by far the best makeup artist I've worked with. She is professional and fun to work with. She is able to do a variety of different makeup looks from natural, to bridal, to smokey eyes, winged eye liner, false lashes, makeup for men, and character makeup. You always feel relaxed when Kristen is doing your makeup because she loves to chat about anything and it makes you feel relaxed. She also uses the best professional makeup products such as MAC and Makeup Forever."

"Kristen was very professional and great to work with. She did a trial run to find out what I liked and what I wanted different. She also did my make-up for my bridal and they were beautiful. She told me about airbrush and I was a little nervous because I didn't want to look fake. It turned out great. The day of the wedding it was so hot but my makeup looked just as good and fresh as it did that morning. She did 4 bridesmaids, my sister in law, my mother and my in 3.5 hours. She had a time line which she emailed to me a week before and everything went very smooth."

"I have to give all the credit to my wedding glow to Kristen. She made me look beautiful. She is very versatile and really asks what you want before hand to make sure you're happy with your look. She's quick for a makeup artist yet not rushed and still makes everyone look great (which is talent if you have a big bridal party). She is very very organized and creates a schedule beforehand so everything goes smoothly on the day of. Great person to work with if you want to look great on your wedding day :)"

"Kristen and Kali went above and beyond on our wedding day to make sure our bridal party and guests felt and looked their best. Beyond making us look gorgeous (their makeup and hair skills are top, top notch), they truly felt like part of the broader team to make sure the day went perfectly and seamlessly. Kristen and Kali helped in the bridal suite, right up until the ceremony, and then before the reception. They showed true love, compassion, and care for our families and we feel privileged to have worked with them. There is no one we would recommend more strongly for hair and makeup!"

"Kristen is an amazing makeup artist - but better yet - she is a great listener. She listened to what I wanted, and helped teach me how to make it happen. I went to her because I have never been confident with makeup and wanted to learn how to do an everyday polished look. I felt so comfortable in her studio and presence. I felt that she genuinely wanted the best for me, and I left looking amazing, but not overdone (just what I wanted.)
Kristen is a great teacher. She modeled how to apply on one side, and then helped me do the other side, with gentle, helpful guidance. I left feeling like I can do this. I left with written step-by-step instructions, product and brushes list, which was so helpful. I am so glad I scheduled a session with her - I seriously think any and every woman would benefit from this. I would love to go back if I ever want to pull of a bolder look or have an event or need advice on what would be best for me."

Kristen Packard is seriously the most amazing makeup artist ever! I used her services for my wedding and a boudoir photo shoot. I do not usually wear a lot of makeup and feel very uncomfortable when I do get my makeup done because it always seems like too much. However, I would let Kristen do my makeup for any event! She used airbrush for my wedding makeup trial and I felt so beautiful and comfortable. I also can't get lash extensions due to an allergy to the glue so we did fake lashes and she put them on perfectly so I didn't even notice I had them on. On the wedding day, my airbrushed makeup looked just as perfect as ever and I felt so beautiful! Her team did all the bridesmaids makeup as well and everyone was happy with how it turned out. She used regular makeup rather than airbrush on them.
For my boudoir photo shoot, she used regular make up and I still thought it looked amazing! Even my photographer was impressed.
Kristen is very talented and was such a fun person to get to know! I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!!

I purchased a private makeup session for my sister and I with Kristen because I knew she was fantastic & really got along with her! She’s done my makeup multiple times for photo shoots or events & she has incredible talent I knew we could learn from. I’m not kidding — her private sessions are a STEAL!!! She provides all the makeup, your own beautiful booth/chair/mirror combo to practice in AND gives you a goodie bag fullll of amazing product. I’m a beginner at makeup and she answered all my questions & concerns without a problem. It’s very tailored to what YOU want to learn which is Amazing!
She is incredibly patient, hilarious, fun, and honestly makes the whole thing a big party! Worth every dime plus some!!!
