I’ve had the pleasure of twice being in the artist’s chair. Whether it’s prepping for photos or a special event, you can feel assured that your vibe will be elevated by MKUP. I’ve loved the personal connection, relaxed feeling in the studio, and the final reveal.

Mary-Kate is awesome! She just did my makeup for my wedding and she does amazing work! I am a very pale skin tone and I know it is very hard to try and match without it turning yellow on me. She was able to make me look natural with a little glam feel to it! She is so sweet and knows her stuff too. I also had her do my hair as well. We decided to add extensions and she matched my strawberry blonde hair perfectly! I know I will be recommending her to any bride that needs a makeup artist for her big day!!

MK knocked my wedding hair and makeup out of the park. Everyone complimented me on my hair and makeup. I’m not a makeup person but MK made it look natural. Asked my visions and opinions and tested colors for the perfect look. And my hair 🤩🤩 she did such an amazing job. I was a little worried that it might not hold up the whole day. The ceremony was at noon and the reception was at 5 and it was like she just did it. It didn’t budge. She’s a perfectionist, on my trial she had to get my hair just the way we wanted it. I wish I had another event to got to just to have her do my hair and makeup again.

I had a fantastic experience in training (certified) in the Jet Plasma Device, with Mary-Kate. From the start, her personable approach made everything enjoyable and engaging. She was incredibly thorough in her teaching, ensuring I understood every detail. The training environment was absolutely beautiful, which added to the overall comfort of the experience. The host was amazing, making me feel right at home. I also appreciate the continued education and the ability to reach out for questions afterward. I wholeheartedly recommend Mary-Kate for anyone looking to enhance their skills in a supportive and inspiring setting! Thank you so much!!!

Mary Kate has been my makeup artist of choice for years. She is beyond talented, dedicated and meticulous. Her Jet Plasma treatment have vastly improved the tone and texture of my skin. And I also recently received a lash lift from her which was amazing because I now no longer need to wear mascara! I could not recommend her more, she will make you feel like the very best version of yourself.
