Caro is an amazing teacher! I had so much fun learning new makeup techniques to help me prepare for my son’s wedding , as well as other times I want an elevated, polished look. She took time to demonstrate and then let me practice, in order to really understand the blending and color placement. I highly recommend time with Caro.

Caro is the sweetest and most calming person to be around. Beautiful energy and beautiful work. Caro did my bridal makeup and the makeup for my 3 daughters on my wedding day. Everyone looked and felt fabulous! And Caro was genuinely happy and wanting to do whatever look each person preferred. Very skilled and ALL the best products!
Caro was awesome! She was very helpful in explaining what she was doing and what products she was using.

Caro is hands down the best! She’s so kind and easy going! I wanted a smokey ultra glam and she nailed it! So many compliments on my make up!!! Can’t wait to book her again!
So grateful to have found Caro Benitez! I spent two hours with Caro for a make up lesson. My son is getting married and needed to learn how to do my own makeup. She was so patient and I learned so much. Caro applied makeup to 1/2 my face and then I practiced on the other side. We moved from a "Run to Costco"…
Caro has done my makeup a couple times. She always helps me feel like the prettiest version of myself! Best makeup artist 🩷
I was searching for a makeup artist who could teach me how to create my own everyday look and then elevate it for a night out or special occasion—and Caro exceeded every expectation.

Caro is an amazing makeup artist. I have known her for years and she has never disappointed! I book her for all my big events to make me look absolutely beautiful.

I absolutely loved everything about this experience and I am so glad I did. I learned a lot about my skin tone and what suits me best.

What a fun afternoon!😍❤️ I booked makeup services for a special breast cancer fundraiser. As an older client, Carolina and Annie had their work cut out for them.

Caro is AMAZING and just the sweetest! Originally we only had two people booked to get their makeup done, but FIVE people ended up getting it done because everyone was just so impressed with her work. And she was completely accommodating. The whole bridal party (and moms!) loved her!
I had an exceptional experience with Caro! The makeup turned out beautifully, and she worked so quickly without compromising quality. I’m especially grateful she was able to book me in at such short notice — literally the next day! Highly recommend her services.

You truly can’t go wrong with Caro! She was so responsive, kind, and professional from the very beginning.

Caro is absolutely INCREDIBLE! She was able to fit me in last minute for a makeup session for my engagement photos, and I could not be happier. Her warm and inviting personality made the experience so enjoyable, and I couldn’t be happier with how my makeup turned out!
Working with Caro was so fun and easy! I loved how natural and light my makeup was for my engagement photos and my wedding day - I felt like myself. In addition to loving the look, she was the right kind of energy bringing laughter and no stress to the days.
The gift that keeps on giving. Absolutely loved my makeup session with Caro! Took a two hour lesson with her for an upcoming trip to learn from the best! Left feeling confident that I could replicate multiple looks at home and over my travels. Thank you Caro!!

Caro is an artist! I really wanted to take her home with me after the photo session. Her makeup skills are top drawer. She provided a relaxing, calm and fun experience. I was so pleased with the results of her work. I felt like a million bucks and got compliments to back that feeling up.
Caro is so wonderful and sweet! I booked her and her team for makeup for my wedding and they were all amazing!

I have always had extremely sensitive skin, to the point where even most soaps bother me, but Caro checked all of the ingredients with me and was sure to use gentle products. The difference of my skin in just a few days has been amazing! I will be using her services again and recommend her to everyone as she really listens to concerns and cares!
So lovely to work with and couldn’t be nicer - she came to my house (which was huge!) to do makeup for our newborn photos and made me feel so put together and like myself. Couldn’t have asked for more!
Caro was recommended to me by another makeup artist for my bridal shower makeup and I couldn’t have been happier! She was extremely personable, the studio was clean and inviting, and she listened to my requests about what I wanted for my makeup. She even gave me a little to go bag with extra lip gloss and powder in…
