Klava Z Beauty - Ottawa Makeup Artists and Educators

Klava is amazing! She did my wedding make-up and for my four friends and mom. All of our makeup was flawless! Everyone was super happy. Since I don't typically wear much make-up, she really blew me away with the trial look and I had full faith in her for my wedding day. I was breaking out but you could never tell - she did an amazing job and a very natural look. It lasted all day and night, it was just PERFECT! I would 100% recommend her and would use her again in a heart beat!

I thought I just needed a makeup artist for my wedding day, but I ended up hiring Klava for skincare consultation and wellness and stress management as well. I struggle with rosacea and wanted to have clear skin for the wedding. Klava's consultations turned into something I regularly looked forward to and by following her guidance, my skin cleared up significantly. My skin hasn't looked so good in years and the makeup was flawless! Thank you Klava!

As someone who barely wears any makeup on a day to day basis, my wedding makeup was something I was most nervous for. My past experiences with makeup for wedding related events have been cakey and heavy, and not looking anything like myself. The moment I met Klava for my bridal trial at her studio, I immediately felt at ease. Klava’s personality and positivity radiates off of her and it makes you feel safe and confident, even before she starts her work! On the day of my wedding, as Klava and her coworker took on each member of my bridal party, the level of confidence in the room grew. As they completed their makeup, Klava would be telling each person on how their specific attributes complimented them and how beautiful they were. She created looks on my bridal party, Mom, mother in law and my Nana that made their inner and outer beauty shine. This included myself! They enhanced everyone’s features, instead of hiding them. They took everyone’s makeup comfort levels into consideration and created the most amazing looks for each individual. Especially for my mother in law who was skeptical of the makeup experience at first, but after the dedication and time spent with her, she was radiating in and out! For my makeup, I was so impressed at how Klava would custom make a colour that suited my skin tone, matched my natural tones and colours and made it feel light and airy. I had never worn makeup before and not felt cakey. My blue eyes were popping, my freckles still showing and I felt like I was glowing. The confidence that she gave me on my wedding day was unbelievable. I have never felt as happy in makeup as I did on my wedding day. Oh, and Josh loved the look too! He said it made me shine, and looked subtle and beautiful! Once I have our pictures from our photographer, I will share more with you! Thank you, Klava!! Carson Bottan

Klava did a fantastic job on my bridal makeup and all my wedding party. Everyone looked amazing and flawless and the makeup lasted all day and night. Would highly recommend you get your makeup done by Klava and her team for your big day!

It was a pleasure to work with Klava. She shared tips and techniques for applying makeup, while taking the time to explain each application. Klava is very knowledgeable regarding all aspects of beauty products. She recommended several products that would work for me. My makeup lesson was informative and fun!

Klava's makeup application on myself and my mother for my son's wedding was absolutely perfect. Our makeup was beautiful and elegant. It stayed on all day and night. No creasing or touch ups required. We were both very pleased and felt beautiful on this very special day. Thank you Klava!

I enjoy playing with makeup but have never had any formal training. This was a great experience, I learned many techniques I didn't know before that have helped me to enhance my features and use colors that better suit my skin color. Klava was easy to get along with, patient and very informative. I really liked that she comes to your home and assesses and uses your own makeup. It was a fun and very informative session!

Klava and her team are the absolute best! She provided makeup services for myself, my bridesmaids, mom and mother-in-law on our wedding day. Klava and her team are professional, organized, lovely to work with, and prioritize cleanliness. Everyone looked beyond stunning, with their look being customized to their features. Klava and her team created a calm space where we were all pampered like celebrities. The morning of the wedding, Klava also provided amazing skin prep with a mini massage which had my skin glowing all day long. We received numerous compliments throughout the evening on our makeup, with mine lasting well past 3AM. I would highly recommend Klava and her team for all of your makeup needs!
