I met Sarah when I booked her to do my wedding day makeup. Her calm demeanor and inviting presence is amazing. She makes you feel incredible and at ease. What started as a consult for just makeup turned into some facts that I didn’t know about my skin. She kindly brought awareness to how dehydrated and irritated my skin was. I had been using a system of expensive products so I thought they were working but clearly they weren’t working well for my skin type. She recommended a list of products for me and sent them to me and ensured I would see results with what she recommended. Sarah also explained her recommendations are totally based on my/your skin type and she receives nothing as far as compensation for the products that she chooses for each client. She was 100% correct with what she choose and how happy I would be with the results! Within 1-2 weeks of following her instructions I was less red, and had little to no acne or breakouts. When the day of my wedding came, the overall application of makeup went on so much smoother and natural. I could never go back to using anything she doesn’t recommend. Sarah has also recommended perfect makeup choices for me, for I don’t wear a lot and I wanted a simple routine for when I choose to. I highly encourage all women, whether you have acne, redness, or are just unsure of what to use, to see Sarah and see your skin transform!

She is a true artist and was wonderful. She provided amazing service and detail for the bride and bridal party. Truly fantastic and made us look beautiful in a very natural way.

I’ve known Sarah for almost 10 years now. Having done my makeup for my engagement pictures, my wedding as well as lashes for the last 10 years she never ceases to amaze me. I recently decided to a makeup lesson/skin lesson with her and I continue to be impressed with her knowledge on all things skin and beauty. We met and went through all of my current products, she helped me weed through what I could still continue to use and what I should get rid of. She recommended new products to buy, from skincare to makeup, to brushes and once it all came in we met and did a makeup lesson. Since then I have received so many compliments about how good my skin looks and I finally feel confident in putting on my own makeup. I am grateful for Sarah’s knowledge and knowing me so well that she knew just what products to recommend. 10 years later and she’s still the best, can’t recommend her enough!

First and foremost Sarah Giggar made me feel comfortable and relaxed. She has an excellent communication style that touched on all aspects of learning. She not only demonstrated, she explained the process and even drew the technique out so that I could see, and hear what she was doing. Her kindness and professionalism made it fun! She is patient, encouraging, extremely knowledgeable about not only the application process but also the products themselves. Sarah is so kind and generous with her time and explained the whys and the how’s so I understood the look we were trying to achieve. She made me feel confident I would be able to go home and do this in my own.

I must share…what a talented artist Sarah truly is. As a person who is intimated by makeup I was very nervous about how I would look in my engagement photos. Sarah was amazing and fit my needs and look just right, I could not stop looking at myself in the mirror on the drive to our shoot. I would highly recommend Sarah to any bride still looking for a makeup artist. She is simply the BEST.

I really appreciated that Sarah didn't push her style and interests on me. She listened to me and offered suggestions, always making sure that I was comfortable with them. I am not one to use a lot of makeup and cover my whole face, so her guidance focused on my areas of concern (eyes, and red cheeks from rosacea). It made it easy for me to adapt and continue to follow her instructions in my morning routine. She has an uncanny way of knowing exactly what color will work best on any given skin tone and her product recommendations were spot on. Now I don't feel like I am throwing away money on any purchase to 'see if it will work'. We all have played around with our makeup and discovered some things by trial and error. I'm really glad I took a little time to get professional advice that works.

Sarah is INCREDIBLE! From the first time I contacted her until the moment she and her assistant completed the last bridesmaid, she was the consummate professional. (My type-A personality appreciated this SO much!!!) We stayed right on schedule which was a feat considering there were 9 faces to be done.

Sarah’s talent, understanding, and support changed my life. I have Bell’s Palsy and feel self conscious about the asymmetry in my face – especially because I can’t smile. Sarah’s skincare & makeup lesson gave me the tools to put together a look that helped me feel better about myself. When I put on my makeup I think of how different my everyday life is because of Sarah’s knowledge, creativity, kindness, and artistry. She created a look I’m able to recreate at home easily. I look, feel and act more like the “me” that I was before the paralysis. I love seeing Sarah for my regular eyelash perm & tinting because it makes my makeup routine simpler, just as she promised. She’s also so warm and positive! Who doesn’t need more of that in their life!?  Whether you need an artist for a special occasion, a new look, or regular maintenance, Sarah will find your beauty and bring it out for you to see and feel.

From the moment I met Sarah, I felt comfortable and confident that she was the right person to trust with my beauty needs. After a thorough skin consultation she made the most significant improvement in the clarity and texture of my skin. For the first time in my adult life, I feel confident enough to go out without makeup, which is a big deal! I am so thankful to have found Sarah. She is gifted and professional. She has provided services that save me time as well as elicit feelings of freedom and confidence. I would recommend her a million times over!

As a photographer who values high quality service, I look to suggest professional Hair and Makeup artists for my clients to feel cared for and stress-free on the day of their portrait session.  I always feel confident recommending Sarah’s artistry services, not only does she have a warm, friendly, and inviting personality, my clients show up looking stunning, are camera ready-feeling confident and their best selves!  They rave about working with Sarah and I know my clients are in fantastic hands when working with Sarah.  She is attentive to their needs, responds quickly to questions and is a true professional.

Sarah is fantastic! I have visited her for occasion makeup, eyelashes, facials and of course my bridal makeup! She is knowledgable, professional and so enthusiastic about making you look the best on your big day. Sarah gave me the most romantic undo and my makeup was flawless. She is truly a talented artist and awesome chick! I highly recommend her for not only her bridal makeup but for her facials as well. She’s the best!

Sarah's approach was thoughtful & thorough. I loved that she used many products I already was using, and her instruction began with how I was already applying makeup. I also loved that I came home with the new products she had selected for me & a drawing and reminder instructions. She really heard me as I expressed what I was looking for in the tutorial and promptly answered all of my follow-up questions. I'd highly recommend her! I just wish I'd done it sooner, and love my new look!

Sarah is amazing, hands down. She is so passionate about what she does and it shows. She will adjust whatever you want, when you want it. She is focused and brings assistants that match her talent. My girls and I looked radiant and beautiful for my day and I am forever thankful for her amazing work.

I couldn’t have been happier to find Sarah. She is absolutely the best of the best! I have very high standards when it comes to my make up artists, and being brand new to the CT area after having lived in LA and NYC, I wasn’t sure I would find anyone I loved.  Well, Sarah surpassed my expectations completely. She made me feel like a million bucks (even when I was breaking out everywhere before an important TV shoot)! She not only is knowledgeable about make-up, but will give you tips on skin-care, new products, and how to apply everything.  I’ve used a lot of make-up artists in the past, and Sarah is by far the most skilled. She knows how to make your eyes ‘pop’ so well, and give you that perfect glowy skin! On top of that, she’s so professional and has become a wonderful friend in the process. If you’re looking for the perfect make-up application, take my word–look no further.

Sarah is amazing!  I’m so grateful to a friend for recommending that I see Sarah for eyelash extensions a couple years back. I couldn’t have been happier with the results. In fact, I’ve been so pleased that I’ve been booking Sarah ever since. Her micro-blading completely transformed my brows, and the makeup lesson we had was so informative and fun! She gives the best recommendations for skin and makeup. Sarah has a wonderful eye for color, respectfully listens to your requests, and is always on time. She is flawless and fabulous!

Sarah fosters open communication and is not only teaches you how to apply makeup but also what to buy, what to avoid and general tips and tricks that have stayed w/ me. This is something everyone should do once a year to stay current. I highly recommend Sarah.

Sarah is truly a unicorn of a makeup artist. She is extremely talented, calm and so easy to work with. Most importantly, she applies makeup in a way that makes you look like yourself while enhancing your best features. If you have an event I couldn’t recommend Sarah more!

I’m definitely not what you would call a high-maintenance gal. I started seeing Sarah for eyelash extensions because I was tired of putting on mascara in the morning. It was seriously life-changing. At my first appointment, Sarah asked about my daily routine and lifestyle and then gave me the perfect set of extensions, with just the right amount of fullness and volume. I get so many complements on my eyelashes now – and not once has someone asked if they are “real”. Since seeing her for fills, I’ve worked my way up to her FABULOUS makeup tutorials. I have super-sensitive skin, and Sarah’s advice on products to purchase and how to enhance my features without irritating my face have completely changed my daily makeup routine for the better. She’s an amazing resource for all things beauty – I can’t recommend her enough.

Sarah, can’t thank you enough for your amazing work on Sunday! All of the girls in Adrianna’s bridal party looked beautiful and the make-up lasted all day, despite my many tears! You are an artiste!

Sarah truly has a gift and is incredibly talented. I wanted a more natural look and she totally understood what I was going for. Sarah makes you look like a better version of yourself. She also helped me get the perfect brow shape and gave me recommendations for a skincare routine that CHANGED my complexion completely! On the day of the even everything went SO smoothly, we even finished early. Her calm presence is exactly what you need. Cannot recommend her enough!
