Fully Stocked & Inclusive

Our special event makeup artist carries products for all skin tones. We’ve got you covered with the highest quality products in a full range of shades so that everyone’s makeup looks like flawless skin.  

Years as a professional esthetician have taught me that makeup is not about hiding flaws, it’s about enhancing what you’ve got. You won’t find cakey foundation here! We’ll use products and techniques that complement your skin and bring out your radiant complexion.

“My extended family did a holiday photo shoot in Montecito and we hired Frances through Thumbtack.  Every communication was smooth and we all couldn’t have been happier with our hair and makeup.  

We had ages 11 to 50 and Frances gave everyone an age appropriate look.  Her personality was so easy and accommodating that everyone had a great time.  Don’t hesitate to book her for your special occasion!” – Jenn S.
