    Book with Sarah for the Most Natural Glowy Makeup Ever

    I had the pleasure of being glammed by Sarah for a photoshoot! I was very nervous at first, but she made the whole experience fun and put me at ease immediately. I’m getting married this year and was going to do my own makeup for my wedding, but Sarah changed my mind. She was able to make me look so beautiful with a very natural look. Book with Sarah!

    An Easy Choice!

    As someone who hardly ever wears makeup, and by hardly ever, I mean less than five times a year, the thought of bridal make up was a bit terrifying. I didn’t want to feel or like like someone I wasn’t just for a few hours and nice pictures.

    Working with Sarah has alleviated any and all feelings of anxiety and makes me look forward to the experience and what I will look like day of. It was incredibly important to me that I still look and feel like myself, just with a little something extra. During the trial, Sarah made sure I was comfortable throughout the entire process and listened to me on what I wanted—a natural glow.

    At the end when I looked in the mirror, I loved what I saw. But more importantly, I still saw myself.

    Sarah has been an absolute pleasure to work with. If you want to look and feel beautiful, she is the one to pick! She is a true artist and will ensure your day is about you!

    So helpful!

    I recently reached out to Sarah to do my bridal makeup as well as the makeup for my bridal party. She was quickly back in contact with me and working with me to set up a schedule and contract for my wedding. Sarah has been super responsive and helpful setting up the schedule and working with me on every possibility. We have to start getting ready sooner than we can be in the bridal suite and Sarah worked with me to come up with a game plan for the whole morning. On top of that, when I told her I was struggling to find another stylist for hair, she was all over helping me think of stylists that fit my inspo and was happy to reach out to them on my behalf if needed. Just knowing that was possible took a huge weight off my shoulders.

    Soon after booking with her, we did a trial for my makeup and Sarah was a blast to work with on that. She was really kind and sweet and made the entire process a breeze. I normally get really tentative and nervous asking people doing a service for me to change something if I don’t like it, but Sarah made me so comfortable and really urged me to be critical as it is the makeup for my wedding day. When I asked if we could swap the lip color, she happily did so and I was so happy with how my makeup turned out. She did a beautiful job and listened to what I was looking for perfectly. My makeup wore beautifully throughout that whole day, made it through some tears, eating, a nap, etc and the only thing that budged was my lipgloss/lipstick (as I would expect it too).
    I can’t wait to have her do my makeup for the big day!

    Strongly Recommend!

    Sarah is amazing!! I contacted her regarding doing my hair and makeup for my wedding this August. We recently did my trial and I couldn't have been happier with Sarah's work. She took so much time and care on both my hair and makeup. Not only did I look beautiful at the end of our trial, but I felt so beautiful too. Sarah was so positive, uplifting, and encouraging throughout our session that I couldn't help but feel beautiful by the end of it. I am so excited to work with Sarah again for my wedding and to introduce my bridal party to her so they get to feel just as pampered. Sarah's was prompt, professional, friendly, and lovely from the very first contact. I strongly recommend!

    Incredibly talented and amazing personality!

    Sarah is such a gem! She really listens and executes your vision beautifully!! It was so important to me that I felt like myself but elevated. She did a beautiful bronze glam per my request and I felt like a million bucks! My fiancé saw me afterwards and absolutely loved my makeup. Not only was I blown away by her makeup skills, her personality can not be matched. It is so important to surround yourself with incredible people the day of your wedding and Sarah is just that! She is the sweetest soul and I’m so thankful to have her booked for my wedding day! Don’t think twice, I promise you, Sarah is your girl!!

    If you need glam, Sarah is IT! She is punctual, travels to you, uses high quality products, and overall makes you feel extremely comfortable.

She carefully listens to what you are looking for, but also offers suggestions based on your complexion, the type of event, etc. Highly recommend Sarah for all of your glam needs whether it’s casual or formal.

    I've never felt so beautiful...

    I am not exaggerating when I say that Sarah is the best. She is incredibly professional and so very talented. A little bit about my experience: I don't do a lot of makeup in my day to day life. Which means I didn't really know what I wanted or what to ask for. My photographer, on the other hand, had an idea of at least "a vibe" she was going for. She took cues from both of us and the result was amazing. I've never felt so radiant and beautiful. She highlighted everything that makes my beauty uniquely mine and amplified it. I felt both transformed and myself at the same time. What else can you ask for? I wish I could keep her in my pocket to make feel that way everyday!

    Cats out of the bag

    My only hope in life is that Sarah is available to glam me on every important day. I’ve worked with a lot of amazing artists and she is by far the best. I feel hesitant to even write this review in fears that the word gets out and she will be booked up forever but I also have never felt so strongly about a makeup artist so here I am writing this review.

    She gives the perfect natural no makeup vibe while also putting elegant little touches. I never even give her inspo pics because she honestly does everything better than what I can find online. She knows exactly the questions to ask to help you achieve a look that matches the occasion perfectly. I don’t know how she does it, truly a makeup genius. Maybe one day she will bless us with some makeup tutorials.

    Absolutely amazing

    Sarah was the most talented and sweetest artist we could have asked for. She took the time to do a trial run with my wife and took all of our suggestions and critiques to heart to end up with the most beautiful wedding day makeup. She also was very understanding of my desire to have more plain/masculine makeup for our big day and executed to perfection. She managed her time to perfection and left all of our bridesmates feeling gorgeous and confident to walk down the aisle. I truly cannot imagine a better experience on our most important day!

    Flawless celebrity-worthy makeup

    Sarah made my wedding day makeup dreams come true! I frequently get my makeup done by makeup artists for different events and parties and my husband is always telling me "not too much makeup," or "I don't like when you wear makeup, cant you just wear mascara!" Obviously I needed enough makeup to last from dusk to dawn and I wanted to be happy as much as I wanted him to be happy. Well Sarah totally understood the assignment! My application was flawless! I swear my skin never looked so good and my eyes were the perfect amount of depth while still keeping that soft glam look we all want. I can't recommend Sarah enough! A good day starts by feeling good yourself, so hire Sarah Nika Glam as you MUA and you will feel like the most beautiful girl in the world!

    Look elsewhere

    Very unprofessional. I reached out to her asking if she did small parties, as we are on a budget. She agreed to accommodate a small wedding and worked with us on price, so we set up a trial date on the same day as our engagement photos. 1pm on 5/27 in Auburn, $50 Venmo deposit. We had our shoot at about 5:30 pm and she said it would take about 3.5 hours beforehand for the trial- great!

    A few days later, she asked to come at 12 to ensure plenty of time. Absolutely.

    However, about a week before the shoot, she asked to change the time multiple different times. This was due to her lack of planning (she had another client and, apparently, she wouldn’t have enough time to leave Auburn and get to her next client in time) We couldn’t accommodate the times she offered since we were driving from Reno, so she said she’d work something out.
    Next email I get is telling me that she’ll be at our trial at 3:30 pm. I’m no mathematician, but 3:30pm + 3.5hours would make us miss our photo shoot entirely - something she knew about from the very beginning.

    I told her that obviously wouldn’t work and requested my $50 back. She declined, saying that the “no refund policy” is listed in her contact that she had emailed me earlier. I looked it over multiple times to ensure that it does not, in fact, mention ANYTHING about a trial date deposit, nor the lack of possible refunds for the trial. I pointed this out to her and asked for my $50 again. No response.

    She blocked me and my fiancé on all platforms and refuses to respond to my emails. I reported her to the BBB and took to reviewing her everywhere I can to help couples like us avoid her. If it was in her contract, Id get it. But it’s not.
    If we had changed the times multiple times with no warning, I’d get it. But we didn’t.

    She knew all of the needed info from the get- go and somehow punished us for her lack of planning. She clearly does not care about the people, but she didn’t have to treat us so poorly even though we aren’t a “big sale” for her.
