Saara is extremely impassioned about empowering women and is an avid member of the Women’s Rights Society. Her involvement with this organization, as well as her own personal journey has allowed her to understand and empathize with the issues affecting women around the globe. Makeup is more than just a little lipstick or cover-up for Saara, she has a fierce belief that women should be free to express themselves in whatever way they choose, and that true beauty is not a social construct but a deeply personal expression of who you are.
One of the most creative MUA’s I have ever worked with and her training is evident in her work. The shoot day for our music video last month was a 12 hour day. Even the singer’s lipstick was still good at the end of a rigorous 12 hour shoot day. Beauty by Saara is artistry is magic.
I spent a lot of time looking for the perfect makeup artist for my wedding. As an Indian bride, I wanted a very bold and different look. I was looking into bringing someone down from Vancouver because I just could not find anyone locally. But thank goodness I stumbled across Saara’s Facebook page. I was so impressed with her work. After chatting with her I just knew she was the perfect fit for my wedding. This was even more obvious when we met in person. Not only is Saara talented she is probably the sweetest person you will ever meet. You see the passion in her work. She was able to make my vision come to my life perfectly. She made me feel so comfortable and at ease. I have never felt so beautiful. Hiring Saara was one of the best decisions I made for my wedding. I will never use anyone else for any other upcoming events.

Saara’s personality and vibrant excitement create an energized atmosphere that you cannot help but marvel at.
