The Makeup Box

“Kristi has done our hair and makeup for several photoshoots over the past few years. We are an eyewear brand that shoots an entire season twice a year. Kristi is a delight to work with. She is easy to communicate with, makes our models feel comfortable, elevates our aesthetic, and does not stress during long quick-paced shooting days. It’s so comforting to know that we can give her little direction and she will bring our vision to life. She’s able to pivot when necessary, listens to our needs and provides her professional expertise to create beautiful looks. I would highly recommend Kristi for all things hair and makeup.”

“I met Kristi about six years ago at the recommendation of a friend. I was searching for a new makeup artist. From our first meeting, I had immediate adoration and respect for her; she is incredibly skilled and is truly an artist and master of her craft. Beyond that, Kristi is an amazingly warm and lovely human. She has done my makeup many times and even traveled to another country for my daughter’s wedding; that is how much I trust Kristi. If she does your makeup, you are very fortunate.”

“Kristi is just SO GOOD! I love how she made my makeup look so natural and I got so many compliments on how my whole bridal party looked. I love her energy and she is so fun to work with!”

“I first discovered Kristi when my business partner and I needed makeup done for our professional headshots for our website. I have continued to use Kristi’s services countless times over the past seven years. Kristi did the makeup for my wedding and she also did my makeup for spots I regularly filmed on San Diego local news. I use her for all my special events whenever I want to feel glamorous and confident. She has done makeup for both of my daughters’ proms and homecomings and for anytime I am speaking professionally or have to be in front of a crowd. Kristi’s passion for her craft is inspiring and she pays it forward by teaching and mentoring aspiring makeup artists in high school. She is always up to date on current trends and only uses the best products available. She is truly an artist and the only one I trust to do my makeup for events.”

“I found Kristi through many recommendations from fellow vendors in the wedding industry, and checked out her work thoroughly online. Her communication was much faster than others, and she carried the level of professionalism I would want to vouch for when referring another vendor. My clients looked great on the day of the shoot, and the experience was everything I was hoping for. She was punctual, professional, and fun. More than happy to refer her to future clients!”
