Amy Clarke Makeup

Best makeup/​hair artist around! She will make you look your best on your big day.

Amy Clarke and her team were great! They were the team for my friend’s wedding, which I was a bridesmaid. Everyone was very sweet and really want to make you happy. My makeup artist was on the quiet side and didn’t ask me many questions. But since I had told her everything I wanted, it came out great! I heard Amy work with the bride and Amy knew all the questions to ask and everything to do so I could really tell that she has a lot of experience.
Amy was equipped and ready to go when we got there, which was great. Even though it was so early in the morning, her and her team were looking good and happy to be there. She was very flexible throughout the day and easy to work with.
Definitely recommend her to any bride! She knows how important the day is to you and only wants to make you happy with whatever you want.

Honestly, how in the world did I get so lucky to have THE Amy Clarke and her team come do make up for my bridesmaids, moms, sister and aunt. They did a phenomenal job and I couldn’t have asked for a better artist. All of our make– up and hair came out so STUNNING.
The team was EXTREMELY punctual and I judge a business by their punctuality, service, and honesty. I also want to have a connection with my artist as well and Amy gave me that and more.
I recommend Amy Clarke to every single bride that plans on getting married… WHY? Because my Husband said «Amy, is truly a god given gift to us on our wedding day. She made you look exactly as you are, she was flexible, down to earth, funny, and an amazing person overall». If my cute sexy husband says that, I think I can say more than that.
Amy, you were SO AMAZING. I am so grateful that you were able to do my make up throughout the entire day, including the different make up changes and hair change for the night. One day, you’ll be my personal make up artist for life. =]
If you are contemplating and looking for an artist, don’t hesistate and just book her! I booked her for the entire day and she literally did cartwheels for me. THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

I cannot recommend Amy from Amy Clarke makeup enough. We hired Amy to come to our hotel suite and do makeup for all of my bridesmaids and myself at our Palm Springs wedding, which was one of the best decisions that we made during wedding planning. Our planners, Beau & Arrow, highly recommended Amy, and her close friend Dianna for hair, and we are so glad that we hired her. She is one of the most talented makeup artists I’ve ever worked with, and I’ve worked with many in New York City and the East Coast, more broadly. Her work is truly artistry.
We were married in June 2014 at the ACE Hotel & Swim Club in Palm Springs, California, but we’re from Connecticut. Lots of people told me that I should be nervous that I wasn’t going to do a wedding trial with Amy in advance, but she was absolutely fantastic! She listened to exactly what I wanted and my makeup was simply stunning. So was everyone else’s. She does the most amazing job, truly, and while other makeup artists get crazy with the eye shadow and fake eyelashes (which often look so obviously fake, or in the case of another recent wedding that I attended, come off after thirty minutes, making you look ridiculous in all of your wedding photos), Amy’s work amplifies natural beauty. I felt like I looked like myself, but a better, prettier version of myself. Exactly what you want for wedding makeup! Her makeup is the best kind – stunning and effortless.
We originally had planned to have Amy and Dianna stay just for pre-​ceremony makeup, but it was so hot on the day of our wedding that my father asked them to stay back for touchups. They were flexible and stayed a few hours later to take care of our wedding! While we hadn’t planned to do touchups, I was really glad that we did. It was nice to have Amy there to make sure I was all set, and not have to worry about doing touchups over the evening myself. Even if you don’t end up doing touchups, Amy’s makeup definitely did a great job as far as staying power, and that was even in the Palm Springs heat.
Last but not least, Amy is fun and nice and sweet (this is not to be undervalued). You spend the entire day of your wedding pre-​ceremony, etc. hanging out with your bridesmaids and your hair and makeup team, and it was really nice to enjoy their company, vibe, and positivity. I was definitely nervous when I was in Amy’s makeup chair, just filled with anticipation and excitement, and it was great to talk to Amy and laugh with her (this also helped to calm me down). I felt like I could be myself with Amy that day – excited, nervous, anxious, or joyful – and for this, I am tremendously grateful. Not only is she remarkably talent, but she has a really wonderful spirit.
So, again, I can’t recommend Amy Clarke makeup enough. I’m a big believer in references so I’m hoping that this recommendation will be helpful to future brides and grooms who are considering working with Amy. If you’re planning a California wedding, or even a destination wedding, hire Amy. She will not disappoint!
