More About Me

Nancy

Heather is fantastic! I booked a Signature Session as I am in my 50's and have never really worn make up and have no idea how to properly apply anything. I was nervous at the start, but she puts you at ease right away. The session was terrific! I left feeling like a new person. She is genuine, helpful and amazing at what she does.

Ginny

"That was such a wonderful session! NO ONE has ever figured out how to effectively use makeup on my face. Your selections and advice were spot on, and the end result was super natural. Thank you!"

Meredith

“Heather was amazing! I normally don’t wear much makeup, so feeling like myself was a huge priority. She created a look that was the most beautiful and enhanced version of myself. I also loved her commitment to CF products. Heather is kind, caring, and so talented, I can’t recommend her enough!”
