Why book me

My experience is about more than just technique; it’s about making sure you feel comfortable and stress-free during the whole process. I’ve worked with some amazing people, and I’ve learned that makeup is as much about the experience as it is about the final look. From the first brushstroke to the last touch-up, I’m here to help you feel confident, relaxed, and ready for anything that comes your way.

I bring precision and a sharp eye for detail to everything I do, making sure your look is picture-perfect and lasts throughout the day. I’m committed to creating looks that feel timeless and elevated, while still feeling completely you.

  • “She made me feel so comfortable, listened to my input, and knew exactly what I wanted.”

    As someone who does not usually wear a lot of makeup, i wanted a more natural/elevated look for my wedding so I could still feel like myself and Sammy did amazing!! She made me feel so comfortable, listened to my input, and knew exactly what I wanted. My bridesmaids and mom also all looked stunning and were raving about how good everyone looked and how well it stayed throughout the day/night.

  • “Sammy put my mind at ease at how organized and detail oriented she was.”

    I booked Samantha for my bridal and bridal party makeup. She was amazing! She was so professional and answered so many of my questions leading up to the big day! During our trial she was so easy to talk to and was open to anything i wanted to change! Sammy really out my mind at ease with how organized and detail oriented she was. I also booked her for a brow wax and tint to make the day that much easier. I got so many compliments on my brows!

    When it came down to my wedding day she was such a calming presence in all the chaos and really made me feel pampered. I truly never felt more beautiful! 12/10 recommend Sammy for any and all brow/lash/glam needs!

  • "I leave 100x more confident."

    I love seeing Samantha! She always does such a great job and I leave 100x more confident.

  • “My makeup didn’t budge.”

    Sammy is the BEST in the business! She flew all the way to Montana for my destination wedding and absolutely killed everyone’s makeup. Not only did I cry multiple times, but it was pouring on my outdoor ceremony, and my makeup didn’t budge. All of us girls were dying to know her process and what she used, but she’s just THAT good. I will always highly highly recommend Sammy!!
