Heather and Katie are such an amazing duo. I searched through tons of makeup and hair artists for my wedding and am so glad I went with them. I wanted a makeup artist who didn't cake on the heavy makeup but still could make me look glam. Heather knocked it out of the park. A few standout things about them: -Flexibility: We had to push our wedding out a year due to Covid and they were so understanding and flexible with finding a new date. -Communication: Heather replied to all of my emails in a timely fashion. She was happy to answer all of my questions and was always really friendly. -Personalities: When I first met them during my hair and makeup trial, we were all chatting like we had been friends for years. It's always nice to have down to earth people to chat with since you're most likely sitting in a chair talking to them for hours. Even at my wedding, all the bridesmaids said they loved hanging and chatting with them. -Extras: Heather has gone above and beyond by helping me find an amazing photographer for a boudoir shoot (turned into a maternity shoot due to the quarantine lol). She also helped suggest makeup to purchase for me to have on hand to reapply during the wedding. We are also instagram friends and keep in touch on there. I would use them again 100% and will recommend them to all my friends I know who are getting married. read more

Heather and Alicia did my makeup and hair for my wedding, and they made me look and feel more beautiful than I ever could have imagined! They were so fun to work with, and I am still amazed by their ability to make my vision come to life. They took my inspiration photos, talked through an in-depth consultation, and created a bridal look that was beyond my wildest dreams! If I had feedback or requests throughout the process, they took out their magic wands, and made expert adjustments in just a few seconds :) For the day of my wedding, they brought in Amanda and Michelle to help with my army of women - bridesmaids, mothers, and officiant. They worked so efficiently, and took the time and care to make everyone look and feel gorgeous :) I cannot recommend Heather and her team enough! I feel so blessed to have worked with them - getting ready for my wedding with them created some of the most cherished memories that I'll carry with me forever! read more

Heather and Katie did hair and makeup for my wedding this past weekend for myself, 2 bridesmaids, and both the moms. They were so fun and easy to work with throughout the entire process! They are both incredibly talented when it comes to makeup and hair!! I don't wear much makeup and rarely get my hair done, but after describing what I was looking for the day, they exceeded all my expectations for what I wanted to look like on my wedding day! I never had to touch up my makeup or fix my hair once throughout the day and night! It was such a joy to have you both help get us ready for the best day of my life! Thank you so much!! read more

Heather is incredible. As a makeup artist, but also as a person. She is so talented...but also so genuine and fun to work with. I recommend her times 1000000. read more

Hands down the best MUAH artists! I don't even know how to properly convey how amazing Heather and Katie are - they were by far my favorite vendors to work with throughout my entire wedding planning process and wedding day. Not only are these ladies extremely talented at what they do, they are maybe two of the nicest, most genuine women I've ever met. Needless to say, I was pretty nervous the day of my wedding and they worked so hard to keep me calm while simultaneously making me and my girls feel so incredibly beautiful. They truly listened to what I wanted and went above and beyond to create the exact look I was aiming for. Their professionalism and caring demeanors are unmatched - they really go the extra mile! read more

Heather and Katie did an amazing job! They did hair and makeup for my three bridesmaids and me. Some of us had an idea of what we wanted, and others left it to Heather and Katie to get creative and all of our looks turned out gorgeous and unique to each of us. Logistically, they were extremely organized and very responsive. Booking and payments were also super easy. They arrived early and kept us all on schedule, which everyone really appreciated! Most importantly, they were also so friendly and fun to chat with and helped me feel relaxed. My hair and makeup still looked great at the end of a long (sweaty!) day! I would highly recommend this team! read more

I would recommend both Heather and Katie for your important day. I got my makeup done by heather and my hair done by katie for my wedding . They both did a wonderful job. When my husband saw me for the first time he was speechless. I showed heather pictures of what I was thinking about for my makeup and she was able to give me the look but also make it more appropriate for a wedding (I was showing her pictures of pinup girls) Katie knew exactly how to work with my hair. My hair is so straight people think I flat iron it. Katie did a great job curly it. It stayed curly through the day. They also did my mother in laws, 2 bridesmaids hair and makeup and two flower girls hair. They knew exactly what time they needed to start and finished in time. Everyone was pleased with their look. I know that there is so much too have to worry about for your wedding day but if you hire Heather and Katie, your hair and makeup is not something you have to worry about! read more

Heather was an absolute blast to work with! She did my makeup for my wedding day (along with my bridesmaids and mother). She was prompt and ready to go despite the insanely early hour we started at. Heather listened to what we wanted, especially since I usually am uncomfortable about wearing makeup, but she definitely delivered and exceeded expectations! Now I'm trying to find another event I can get dolled up for just so I can give Heather another call. read more

Unveiling Designs by Heather - Makeup Artists Near Me

This review is long overdue! Heather was the makeup artist for my June 2015 wedding and she was absolutely wonderful! My first visit with Heather was great-she was professional, listened to my ideas about how I wanted my make-up to look, and was just a pleasure to talk to. Throughout the planning process Heather was flexible, communicative, and understanding. I always felt at ease and appreciated her calming demeanor. On the day of the wedding Heather was prompt, professional, and friendly. As any bride knows, the day of your wedding (while SO exciting!!) can be stressful, and Heather eased the stress! She not only made me feel and look beautiful she also did the makeup for 5 of my bridesmaids and my mom, and they looked stunning as well!! Heather is great-I would highly recommend her! read more

Heather and Katie are the perfect examples of great people doing excellent work! They were very responsive, super flexible and accommodating of the numerous changes we made to the timeline and smiled and did more than their best despite last minute delays the day of. They were fantastic during my trial and I instantly knew that I could trust them and want people like them working so closely with me on my wedding weekend! They are phenomenal at what they do - creating magic without going overboard :) They truly cared about how I felt and that is very special. I'm sad I won't get to see them as much anymore - that's how wonderful they are :) Highly highly recommend them! read more

I cannot say enough positive things about my experience with Heather- she was phenomenal! I used her for my August wedding and everything from the trial/first meeting, to my friends/bridesmaids makeup and of course my bridal makeup, was outstanding. Heather knew exactly the look I was going for and executed it perfectly. She even knew just how great a lip color would look on my skin tone.. one I would never pick out for myself but now absolutely love! She's so positive and makes you feel right at home and comfortable. I was worried about some last minute pre-wedding blemishes but Heather covered them with ease and calmed my stresses (much needed!). My makeup stayed for 8+ hours.. amazing. Highly recommend and will be using her for all big occasions! read more

I booked Heather and Katie for my wedding on 08/05/2017 and had the BEST experience. Four out of the five bridesmaids had both their hair and make-up done (as well as myself). The two ladies handled the job like nobody's business and everyone looked amazing! Watching each girl go ahead of me just made me more and more excited before it was my turn in the chair. And when I was done - I never thought I could look so beautiful. I will forever be grateful for them - and I would highly suggest them to anyone looking for professional hair and make-up services! read more

I can't say enough great things about Heather - she is a gem!! She came highly recommended from two of my girlfriends, and definitely exceeded my expectations. I don't wear a lot of make-up in my normal day-to-day, so I wanted to make sure I still looked like myself for my wedding. Heather listened to what I wanted, made suggestions based on her experience, and really make the whole experience less overwhelming than I thought it would be. On my wedding day, my make-up looked amazing, didn't feel heavy, and photographed well. To top it off, she has amazing energy that really helped set the tone for the day! read more

Heather is absolutely amazing!! She had the job of doing make up for three of us, (both mothers and the bride) and she was so efficient and on schedule which was so wonderful when as the bride I was already so nervous beyond belief!! I also loved how laid back and sweet she was, especially to my 5 year old niece who insisted on hanging out with us and play while heather was applying my make up. I myself hardly wear any makeup and I was at first a bit nervous about how makeup would look on me but heather did such an amazing job! She did such a great job at enhancing my features and I looked absolutely beautiful!! And the best part, it was all about how comfortable i was at all times, she never tried to force anything on me and just gave me some ideas on what I may like. If you haven't figured out from this review, I absolutely love heather! She made me feel so beautiful on my special day! You can't go wrong with hiring unveiling designs! read more

Heather is an incredibly talented make up artist. She has done my make up for some of my most special life moments...including my engagement photos, maternity photos, and family photos - and always makes me look and feel beautiful! Most recently, she did my make up for my wedding day (and all of my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother-in-law!), and she did an unbelievable job! Everyone looked absolutely stunning! She knows how to accentuate your best features and picks all the right colors for your skin tone and eye color. Not only is Heather an amazing make up artist, but she is a beautiful person with a big heart and warm spirit and her calm nature makes you feel so at ease when getting your make up done. I trust her completely and love working with her! Heather will always be my number one go-to for make up when celebrating future personal and family life milestones. I highly recommend Heather and her services...she is simply the BEST! read more

I am very happy to have booked Unveiling Designs to do my wedding day hair and makeup. Not only are Heather and Katie extremely fun, laid back people, but they're also incredibly talented. I was most impressed by how well they listened. I explained what I wanted, and they really listened; they took the time to look at the pictures I wanted, and did a really wonderful job making it a reality. Heather told me she comes from a family of artists, and based on her makeup application, it's obvious that she's an artist, too. The makeup was flawless, and still looked good the next morning at brunch! I am SO happy with how my hair/makeup turned out. Thank you, Unveiling Designs, for making my wedding day so special!! read more

I have used Heather's services twice...for engagement photos and for my wedding. She is the best makeup artist I have ever worked with. Professional, prompt, kind, fun, and my makeup was perfect. Exactly what I wanted, but better than I could have ever imagined. She listened to what I wanted and adjusted accordingly. Heather is the best! read more

Heather was amazing to work with! She was extremely responsive and helpful throughout the wedding day as well as leading up to it. I absolutely loved Heather's calm and respectful nature as well as her beautiful work. The makeup job that Heather did was INCREDIBLE! The whole time that I spent with Heather, during the trial and my wedding day, I felt as if I was spending time with a friend! I felt that comfortable with her. I would highly recommend Heather to someone who is looking for a makeup artist! read more

If you want to look the best you have ever looked in your life- hire Heather for your wedding day!! It was one of the best decisions we made. Heather is a true professional, and an amazing lady as well - such a pleasure to work with! I was a destination bride, so didn't meet Heather until our wedding day, (didn't even have a trial!) but when I met her, I had felt like I had known her forever. She made all of us feel like a million bucks, and was also so fun and supportive to have with us that morning! Thank you, Heather!! Words can't even express how grateful I am to have had you as part of our big day. read more

If you're looking for a makeup artist, look no further because you will be 100% please with Heather just as I am. First of all she is prompt getting back to you, which for a bride, I wanted answers quickly and to move forward with other decision making and she made it easy by being on it. Then her easy personality made me feel at ease. We were unable to meet for a trail, so I sent her some pictures of myself and on the day of she had some ideas. I didn't want to much where I didn't look like myself, but needed enough for the photos. She did a beautiful job. Not only Great at what she loves doing, but kind hearted too. I would recommend and use Heather again in a heart beat. read more

My wife and I were married in Healdsburg in July and chose Heather to do our makeup. With two brides in our wedding, we thought it would be a challenge to find someone whose work we both loved. But after our makeup trial we knew right away that Heather would be perfect for both of us. Working with her was a great experience all the way through! From the trials to the wedding day she listened to what each of us wanted, and continued to check in on us from time to time in the weeks leading up to the ceremony. We were both so pleased with the finished product, and the way we both looked when we walked down the aisle. I also used Katie for my hair and could not have been happier. My initial hair trial with Katie went well, but as the wedding date approached I changed my mind about my look. Katie was very flexible, and quickly scheduled another hair trial so we could find the perfect style. The end result was beautiful and I could not have been happier with my hair on my wedding day! I'm so very happy with our decision to work with Heather and Katie, and I highly recommend them both to anyone looking for an outstanding hair and makeup team. read more

I can't say enough about how wonderful Heather is. From the moment she arrived, (Early) and set up, she was very organized and thorough. She had everything from the trial all ready and waiting, plus a variety of other colors just in case the weather had changed, or the lighting had changed, or for any other bridal emergency. She kept me calm, worked quickly and very cleanly, and made sure that she created a look that was not only unique to me, but was up to her very high standards. Heather kept her time schedule impeccably, and really made sure that I knew my happiness and look were here priority. She is an amazing artist, working with both the style of the dress and hairstyle to make the whole look come together in the best way possible. She is worth far more than she charges, and is the best makeup artist I've ever worked with; her perfectionist ways show in her work, and my makeup looked flawless for hours upon end. I recommend her to everyone I know and I plan on using her for my maternity shoots, and our new family portraits, and any time I need to look like a million bucks! Take heart new brides, you won't be disappointed and you will feel absolutely gorgeous when she is done! read more

Heather is so fantastic, I can't even begin to give her enough praise! From the second I met her at my trial, I knew I loved her. She's very professional, but also had me laughing the entire time. She and Katie (hair) got what I wanted down to the last detail so I knew she was the one to do my wedding makeup. On the day of the wedding, I couldn't have asked for any more. She and Katie did 10 members of my bridal party, including myself. They were efficient, professional, and most importantly, everyone loved the way they looked - even the girls that tend to critique hair and makeup people normally! Not only that - they finished early! It was amazing, especially with 10 people, but they had us ready for pictures way ahead of schedule. As for me, I have never looked better! I got so many compliments all night on my hair and makeup, and it lasted well into the night. It probably could have lasted through brunch the next morning if I wanted it to! Do yourself a favor and reach out to Heather...you won't regret it. read more

Heather is AMAZING! There is no need to go to several wedding makeup trials for your big day. She is sweet, professional, and responds very promptly to emails. During my trial in her adorable makeup room in her lovely home, she checked in with me to see if I liked what she was doing. I felt comfortable with her right away, and it was easy to tell that she is an experienced professional who has a passion for what she does (and is fabulous at it)! She asked me if I wanted to change the look of the eyeshadow and/or go lighter or darker. (She wanted to make sure that I loved the look and took notes to remember all of the products that she used.) My makeup looked flawless after my trial and on my wedding day! I could not have asked for a better job or a different look. It was perfect! Heather even went to my hair salon (and arrived early) on the morning of my wedding. My mom and bridesmaids looked amazing as well! I will definitely recommend Heather to my friends and hope that I have an excuse to see her again soon! read more
