She also does face painting and free style painting for signs, wall art, etc. Aubra keeps an artist studio in the Hilo Farmers Market. But she's also mobile and can be booked for parties and events. She's very personable and does nice work. Wish I could visit her in O'ahu, but she's Hawaii island based now! Will be visiting her next time I'm on the Hilo side.

Her fee is totally reasonable and absolutely worth it! She showed up to our party on time and set up quickly. Everyone wanted to get a henna design. Kids and adults loved it!

She does all of her designs free hand. She also brought face paint for the little ones! I highly recommend Aubra for her talent and professionalism. She truly was a pleasure to work with! I will be calling her again!

Darcy is awesome…read more She traveled to Puna to do some makeup for me. She also helped out tremendously with my hair, even though she was only hired for makeup. Darcy showed up, in the middle of nowhere, with no cell service, on my front doorstep, on time and ready to go with her large makeup kit rolling right behind her. Darcy is very sweet, listens to you and her application of makeup is great. The only thing I would recommend is be aware of airbrush vs traditional makeup. I wasn't and my face started melting mid-day. I highly recommend Dary. Her prices are affordable so rest assured you have found a great make-up artist at a great price! Not to mention how hard it is to find a traveling makeup artist these parts! Mahalo Darcy!

On the wedding day we had plenty of time and the hair and makeup turned out exactly what I wanted. I was so nervous because I wanted a pretty natural look, but Jes totally nailed it.

Tia was an absolute staple of making my wedding day perfect…read more She stuck with me through FOUR wedding dates (no thanks, pandemic) and was always so supportive when I had to make tough decisions to reschedule. Our trial felt like a girl's day, we had so much fun and even though my inspo was all over the place, she somehow put together exactly what I wanted. Day of, she helped to find a second hair and make-up artist (shout out to Andi!), so we could fit everyone in. She created a flawless timeline that somehow got us done a little early. My family had so much fun with them both. I can't believe how low stress it was. They're incredible artists and also just all around dope human beings.
