Ms. Liv is awesome, and I absolutely love my makeup! She explained parts of the process while working which helped me trust her even more and feel confident that I’d love my results. Thank you!

Liv is insanely talented! She did a different style on me than what I am used to and knocked it out of the park! She showed me a new way to make my hooded eyes pop. On top of all that, she uses high quality, long lasting products AND has strong hygenic standards. Would absolutely book with her again!

I am going to a Fae Revel: A Night of Myth and Merriment event at the Ghent Rooftop bar tonight, September 20, 2025 and I am going as a dark viking priestess / witch. I cant do makeup to save my life and one of my friends was weary in doing it for me and I do not blame her. So I googled "Fantasy Character makeup near me" and GOREgeous Makeup by Liv was the first one to populate in my Google Search. I clicked on her website and went through her photos and liked what i saw so decided to book an appointment with her. Liv is an awesome makeup artist and very talented. She was very accommodating and bounced ideas, based on many pictures I sent her, on the look I wanted. I showed up early and she got to work. Very personable and kept the conversation going. I was so ecstatic when she turned me to see in the mirror and earlier in the session she had mad a suggestion to do the ash on my neck and I agreed. It pulled everything together. I then decided last minute to add a small rune and liked that idea. It looks amazing. I cant wait to put on my full costume to see what I look like but she did an amazing job and her prices are fair and reasonable. If you want Halloween makeup or fantasy or fantasy wedding makeup done, she is the woman for the job. You will not be disappointed.
