Vardit has a wealth of knowledge and was very thorough in explaining each step of doing drag make up and helped me with many techniques and tips. I still need a lot of practice but so grateful for her focus and enthusiasm.

Vardit is a real genius. She looks at your face with the astute eye of a painter and tells you excitedly what needs to be done to bring your face(her canvass) alive. She made my eyebrows look even after years of squinting at music and laughing too much. The process of her work leaves you in wonderment of the results which everyone notices. Her excitement at the results is almost as great as the final product itself. She is a true artist, full of compassion and one of the nicest humans you'll meet. I can only say that she's the BEST!!!

Vardit did the make up for me and my daughter for my daughter's bat mitzvah. It was amazing. We wanted makeup that was natural, especially for a 13 year old girl: make up which made us both look the best versions of ourselves. I received compliments all day from everyone about my hair (which Vardit also did) and my make up. My daughter looked so beautiful and natural, exactly appropriate for a young teenager. Vardit made her feel so special and confident.
Vardit was incredibly accomodating, arranging for everything at a time which suited us. She was professional and at the same time, made us feel

Vardit did my hair and make up for a wedding. I normally don't wear much make up and was worried that I will have a caked on make up, but needn't worried; Vardit knows exactly what suits my skin and face, she made the perfect, natural looking make up, yet covering the blemishes and imperfections. I was very happy with my make up and hairstyle. Vardit also creates a very professional, yet enjoyable and fun atmosphere. I can recommend Vardit to anyone who wants to have the perfect hair and make up for any occasion. I am sure I will see her when the next opportunity arises. Thank you Vardit to make

Vardit was the perfect - and obvious - choice as the makeup artist for my wedding. She has continued to provide incredible makeup looks for me throughout the years (school formals/special events), using impeccable quality products and attention to detail.
Vardit spends time getting to know her clients in order to create their perfect look. As someone who doesn't wear much makeup, I've always been incredibly confident that Vardit will make me feel naturally beautiful, no matter the event. When you think about who you'd like by your side as you prepare for your day, think Vardit. She is kind,
