Sam absolutely exceeded my expectations for my wedding makeup! She kept me looking like me + soft glam, which is exactly what I wanted! She was so professional yet still felt like one of the girls ❤️ I’ve referred all my engaged friends and clients to her since that day.

I had such an amazing experience with Samantha! She did my makeup for my birthday photoshoot and I honestly couldn't have been happier with how it turned out. She really listened to what I wanted and recreated the look perfectly.
I've had my makeup done many times and this was truly one of the best makeup looks I've ever had. It looked beautiful in person, photographed incredibly well, and lasted all day.
Samantha is so talented, professional and easy to talk to. I received so many compliments on my makeupand I can't wait to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing makeup artist! 💙

Samantha did my makeup at a friend’s wedding in 2022, and ever since then I remembered how beautiful she made me feel. I’m so glad I was able to book her for my destination wedding this June. She not only is such a fun, easy going, and sweet person to work with, but she is quite literally the best artist. She did my mom, sister and my makeup and we all absolutely loved it. All day I felt the most beautiful ever and yet it felt like I wasn’t wearing any makeup. That feeling is so priceless on your wedding day. I can’t sing Samantha’s praises enough and am so glad there’s a makeup artist as gifted and caring as she is. Not only did it last after 8+ hours of photos, crying, sweating and dancing, but I swear the longer I wore the makeup the better and better it got. l am not sure how she does it, but it’s incredible. Thank you so much Samantha!!

Samantha was the best investment I made for my wedding day. Even before the trial, I knew I could only trust Samantha with my wedding glam. She’s precise, she’s quality, she’s intricate. Samantha makes you feel like a celebrity getting ready to walk down the red carpet. Samantha is so personable it felt like I was chatting with one of my long time best friends. My glam lasted through tears, laughter, and a whole night of dancing!! I highly highly highly recommend Samantha for all your glam needs!!!

Samantha is an absolute artist! She has done my make up for multiple events and it is perfection every single time. She takes the time to understand what you are looking for and is very detailed oriented. She is absolutely my go-to makeup artist in KC!
