At her studio, she offers makeup applications, makeup lessons, eyebrow shaping, lash applications, facials, body waxing, electrolysis, body hair bleaching and tinting, massages, body treatments, self tan application, and post operative makeup.

So what tips does the fabulous Kimara have for brides in order to have the perfect wedding day face?

  1. Foundation to even out the skin tone and texture

  2. Blush to bring color and a natural flush to the face

  3. Mascara to open up the eye and waterproof so you won’t have any mascara stained tears

  4. Lipstick to bring color and more staying power to the lips. Lipstick is also slightly more sophisticated than just a lipgloss

  5. Concealer to disguise and blemishes or undereye dark circles.
