Testimonials

Kani killlllled the makeup for me and my bridesmaids for my wedding on Saturday. She is so talented and so fun to work with! I felt like an absolute Princess. She 100% knows what she is doing and is so knowlegable about her products and the latest trends.  I cannot recommend her enough! For everything from tans to eyebrows to makeup.... She is all over it! Thank you for looking after us Kani! Can't wait to see your face again soon!

OMG the custom blend foundation is LIFE CHANGING. I could never get a foundation that covered my redness and was the correct colour for my skin. After a 30 minute consult i now have my perfect foundation. Kani was amazing and definitely knows her stuff. Recommend her 100%. Love M xx

Highly recommend Kani Beauty of Tatum. Being in my 50's i never learnt how to apply makeup and i booked in for a makeup lesson, and also tried eyelash extensions and a brow makeover. Amazing customer service, and so much knowledge and advice. This is the girl you need when needing a makeover or pampering. Terri xx

Fantastic and friendly service. I got my foundation perfectly matched and further advise on make up products to suit my skin after it changed during pregnancy. Kani helped me choose quick application and long lasting make up to suit my busy lifestyle. Thank you so much Kani and team for helping me feel fresh again! Bek
