About

Face of Makeup is a hair and makeup service based out of Salida, Colorado. Your wedding day is arguably your most photographed day, and you need to be photo-ready at all times. The talented artists at Face of Makeup provide beautiful hair styling and stunning makeup application to keep you looking your best for all of your wedding festivities. The team specializes in airbrush makeup application that looks flawless in photos and lasts all day. You may also opt for traditional style makeup, and there are a variety of packages to choose from to fit your wedding day needs.

I (Rachael Hoch) began FaceofMakeup in 2008 after working with another artist in the film industry on a "side gig" that happened to be a wedding. I immediately gravitated towards the enjoyment that I felt having helped someone look and feel their best that normally doesn't get that experience. I felt so proud of what I was able to do for the bride and so fulfilled by the experience. I knew this would be a part of my career forever. Now, having left the film industry after 12 years and relocated out to CO, I am able to turn that into reality! I continued to do weddings throughout my career in television and film and truly found each one to be a passion project more than a job. So, today, I offer you myself and a few other amazing artists that also love to be there with you, that also enjoy the experience, and that also feel fulfilled and proud to be a part of your day! We aren't looking at this as a job, rather an experience that is full of love, laughs, tears, hugs, and all around good times for everyone. We will be part of your group, just there to blend in and help you and your bridal party feel your best and look your best! Most of the brides that we work with end up being friends forever. Take a chance here to look amazing, feel amazing, and meet some great people while you're doing it!

Would recommend to any bride!

Rachael was so amazing to work with. She and her sister were a fantastic team and ensured the day ran smoothly. My bridesmaids could not stop raving about how much they loved their hair and makeup. They both did a great job of being versatile and responding to everyone's specifc requests. Some wanted full glam, while others wanted a more subtle soft natural glam, and they totally delivered.

I had a trial with Rachael about 4 months before my wedding and had a great experience, but totally changed my mind on my hairstyle. Rachael did an amazing job of pivoting to my new request and making my vision come to life. Both my hair and makeup looked absolutely perfect until 2 am. That's through over 12+ hours of photos, crying, mingling, dancing, laughing... I was so amazed!

If you're looking for a team that is versatile, experienced, and personable, Face of Makeup is the way to go!

Dream Team!

Rachel and Tara were absolutely amazing! They were so accommodating to everyone and were such a fun addition to have the morning of my wedding! Everyone was beyond happy with their hair and make up and even better having it last the day/night. Thank you both so much for everything, and I couldn’t be more happy with how it all turned out :)

Highly recommend hiring Face of Makeup!

Rachael was absolutely amazing to work with! She delivered quality services (both hair and makeup withstood a day of wind and crying tears of joy), was very communicative throughout the whole planning and scheduling process, and was a delight to share our "getting ready" space with (easy to talk with, very personable, remained on schedule). Would highly recommend hiring Face of Makeup!
