Make You

Love love love this make up artist! Make up lasted all night, through the pre-​wedding, wedding, and all the dancing! Totally recommended!

I have worked with Leigh Ann on several occasions and her work is never short of amazing. She proves her talent over and over again in photoshoots, runways, and special events. Her skill ranges from dramatic to the barely there, natural look. In addition to her makeup abilities, Leigh Ann is a very skilled hair stylist. From taming tresses to painting faces, Leigh Ann is the go to MUA/​hair stylist in Columbus!

I’d highly recommend Leigh Ann. She made me feel so at ease when I needed makeup application for a magazine shoot. As a mom who rarely even wears mascara, I felt so much more at ease knowing a professional could help. She came onsite, was a wonderfully calming influence, easy to talk to, made me still look like myself (but enhanced my features), and made me feel confident. I left my makeup on after the shoot and had so many compliments throughout the day — it did wonders for my self-​confidence. Now only if she could come to my house each morning to apply makeup … :)

LOVE! I can’t rave enough about what Make You means to me.
I met the owner Leigh Ann at a networking event when she was just starting her business and she has been an amazing friend to me ever since. We have done countless photo shoots, fashion shows, calendars and how-​to makeup lessons together and even a wedding.
Without getting into the boring details, I met Leigh Ann at a particularly difficult time in my life. The very first makeover she did on me was exactly what I needed to turn a corner. She truly came into my life at the perfect time.
All the glamour she creates makes me feel all glittery and sparkly on the inside. There is something so powerful about the transformation that a little correctly-​applied makeup can do to my confidence.
Leigh Ann is so talented. She has an immense knowledge of skin care and how colors compliment different skin tones. She has created signature looks that I’m often asking for when she does a makeover for me.
She has a kind soul. She has donated her time and services to countless charitable events without batting a fake eyelash. Speaking of… I now have an addiction to fake eyelashes. I have been hooked since she taught me how to apply them. Strangely enough, Leigh Ann has the longest natural eyelashes I’ve ever seen in my life! *jealous*
Bottom line, I like looking pretty and Leigh Ann can make me look prettier than anyone else can.

Leigh Ann did my wedding makeup — having had her do my makeup twice before (once in the previous review and once a little later for a photoshoot) I knew I could count on her to paint me up pretty.
I showed up to the trial run 3 weeks before the big day with a photo from a magazine and she turned that into exactly what I was looking for on my face — I mean damn, I looked good ;-) And on the day that really counted, she did, if possible, an even better job. All of my bridesmaids looked absolutely stunning, too. What an amazingly talented gal, and super sweet — someone you don’t mind having in your face for 30 minutes :)

I’m not really a make-​up kind of girl. Light and simple is my motto: eyes maybe, lips if I remember. Generally, I’m just too busy. So, I was hesitant to let Leigh Ann paint my face. However, I had a great experience!
From the onset, Leigh Ann was friendly and offered an easy demeanor. She understood my wants and needs while teaching me new techniques and color combos. I was really surprised and impressed. My husband loved the outcome, too.
She’s definitely opened up a whole new world for me to explore. Now if I could just find the time…
