Confidence Building

I recently had the pleasure of working with Tracilee on a personal makeover. She was so enthusiastic, supportive, and knowledgeable that I felt instantly comfortable in her presence. She has created a lovely beauty studio in her home. She used a variety of techniques and products that she applied individually to suit my face, eye and hair color, taking into account my age and my personal style. I feel so much more self-assured not only in how I look, but also how I feel as a busy, professional woman! I have already recommended Tracilee to many of my friends. As a psychotherapist, I am also encouraging some of my female patients to meet with Tracilee as part of a confidence building experience. Thank you so much, Tracilee!

Personal Guru

I can’t recommend Tracilee's makeup artistry enough! Working with her for many years has been an absolute delight. Tracilee has this incredible ability to flawlessly apply makeup, whether it's for work or those special social events. What I love most is her knack for creating new looks that perfectly align with my style. It's like having my own personal beauty guru!

Tracilee doesn't just stop at application – she goes above and beyond by keeping me in the loop with the latest trends and helping me maintain that coveted glow. Her industry knowledge, coupled with her skillful application, makes every session a joy. If you're looking for someone who is not only talented but also genuinely enthusiastic about makeup, Tracilee is the go-to artist. I'm grateful for the years of fabulous looks she's curated for me, and I can't imagine trusting anyone else with my makeup. She truly is the best!

Consumate Professional

Tracilee is a consummate professional you want to have on your team. She works well under pressure, explains colors and shading to me each time, and is a fantastic resource. We have met at her home office (which is so glamorous!), as well as at my house - so flexible when scheduling! Overall top notch and hugely recommended!!
