MAKEUP ARTIST
Lara Claudy Your face. Your story. Your moment — made beautiful.
I BELIEVE
Every face is unique. Every moment is different. Every look should be created with intention.
I'm Lara — born and raised in Rio de Janeiro, now based in Philadelphia. With over a decade as a beauty model and makeup artist, my work is shaped by Brazilian artistry, classical visagism training, and years of working with every skin tone, every cultural background, and every kind of beauty.
My approach is simple: I don't apply trends. I create looks that genuinely honor the person wearing them — through my eye, your story, and a commitment to makeup that lasts as long as the day deserves.
Three Services. One Standard.
Whatever your moment is — I would love to be part of it.

Makeup Tha Lasts
In Brazil, we call it pele blindada. Makeup that is built to stay. I use professional long-wear techniques and high-performance formulas chosen specifically for longevity. The result is a look that is flawless at hour one and still flawless at hour ten. Through outdoor ceremonies, studio flash, emotional moments, and the last song of the night.

CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS
Lara did my makeup for my elopement day, and I honestly can’t put into words how beautiful she made me feel. I wanted something that still felt like me, and she delivered exactly that. The makeup was so delicate and feminine, and it made me feel beautiful, confident, and truly like the most beautiful bride ever haha. On top of that, it stayed looking untouched all day until late at night, even through all the emotions and dancing.
Thank you so much, Lara. I can’t wait to work with you again in the future.
— Gabi G.
I had the pleasure of having Lara do my makeup for my wedding, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She was incredibly patient and made me feel so calm throughout the entire process, which meant everything on such a special (and sometimes stressful) day.
She really listened to what I wanted and executed the look exactly how I envisioned it, if not even better. You can tell she uses high-quality products because my makeup lasted flawlessly through the entire event.

I had my makeup done by Lara for my wedding and also for a photoshoot, and I loved how it turned out both times. She’s very professional, punctual, and really detail-oriented. I’m mixed, so it can be harder to find the right match for my skin tone and a good technique, but she absolutely nailed it. My makeup looked beautiful, lasted all day in the sun, didn’t melt, and still looked flawless in photos. I felt like she enhanced my natural features without it looking heavy. Definitely recommend!
