Beauty Studio 102

I had a friend that is a make-up artist that was going to do my wedding make up. She has done it before and knows about the allergic reactions that I have to a lot of make-up. Something came up and two months before the wedding she ended up having to make an emergency trip to stay and help with a sick relative. I am very picky about make-up and don’t wear much ever. I contacted Karen because she was HIGHLY recommended by the venue where I was getting married. We e-mailed back and forth and set an appointment for me to meet and have her practice on my make-up. I had plans that night with a friend so I knew I would get additional feedback on how I look. I met with Karen and shortly after she started, my mother showed up as well. I told Karen I wanted a soft and subtle look. When I saw how she did my make-up, it was perfect! Not only that but my mom loved her work as well and decided to have her do her make-up on the wedding day. On the day of my wedding, Karen came to the place we were getting married and first did my mother’s make-up as I was running around. Then she did my make-up as my hair was being done as well. Karen and my hair dresser Betty worked well together though they had never worked together before this day. My make-up and my mothers’ looked perfect! I was so happy that we had decided to have Karen come and do our make-up. I got the perfect look that I wanted and my mother looked perfect as well! I will definitely go to Karen if I ever need my make-up done again. She listened and made me look exactly how I envisioned! I will say that my husband was not thrilled I was having my make-up done because he hates make-up, but even he made a comment about well it was done. A comment about make-up from a guy is the highest compliment of all!Thank you Karen!Tiffany Andrews

Karen was great to work with! She help us with the right look and My daughter was Beautiful!! It was very a very soft look and was just what she wanted! She also did my Make-up and I was very happy with it!! A big than you to her ! She was there early and worked around all the people in the room!

Karen is absolutely wonderful! She is sweet and professional, and VERY easy-going! I've used Karen twice, first for my wedding and then again for a reception at a later date. I am probably the most indecisive person in the world and she was so patient with me! I must have changed my mind on how I wanted my makeup 3 times and she was never upset or irritated. My wedding was in was the end of January at timberline lodge and she had no probably driving up there in the middle of winter. Her pricing is VERY reasonable and the quality of service is AMAZING! I have recommended her to friends of mine getting married this next year and i'm positive they will have as great of an experience with her as I did.

I met Karen at the Troutdale Bridal Show. My mom and I came in for a free trial and we both had a bad reaction to her new cleaning solution, me worse then my mom. After discussing this with Karen, she changed her cleaning product to a non-toxic and had me come in for another free trial to assure me that it wasn't the make-up. The second trial went great and on my wedding day she did my bridal party's make-up beautifully. She even drove out to my Salem location for no extra charge! Though she was late for the appointment due to a longer than normal train. I loved Karen's application so much, I have made another appointment with her to do my make-up again for my Trash-the-Dress shoot. I would recommend her to any of my friends or family.

I have worked with Karen twice now. Once on my wedding day and again on my Mother's wedding day. She is amazing at her craft and makes you feel sooooo comfortable, whether you are the bride or in the bridal party, she makes you look absolutely gorgeous. She did a free trial make-up session with me and even traveled to and from Mollala free of charge. I plan on using her again and again for all of my special events!!
