About

My name is Kay Kremer and I have been in the beauty industry for over 15 years. With a Bachelor of Arts in Textiles and Apparel, I graduated from the University of Northern Iowa in 2003. I have always had a passion for makeup and the cosmetic industry. In 2004 I began working for Clarins Cosmetics. After receiving training from the Clarins Creative Color Director's from Paris at Clarins USA in New York City, I started working in Kansas City as Clarins Professional Makeup Artist. As Clarins Professional Makeup Artist I focused on the education of product knowledge, makeup demonstration and application technique for clients. It was an amazing and fulfilling experience to help and show women how to look and feel their best.

In 2007 I decided to look for ways to gain more experience and left Clarins and began working for MAC Cosmetics. While working for MAC I was able to become a Product Specialist, as well as, gain endless training and application technique from the leaders of the cosmetic industry. Working for MAC enabled me to learn the latest trends in technique and application.

Leaving MAC in 2009 as a full time employee, I decided I wanted to work for myself and become a Freelance Artist. The move to becoming a Professional Freelance Artist has enabled me to be apart of so many wonderful weddings and meet so many beautiful brides. It is a wonderful feeling to be apart of someone's very special day.

Over the years of networking and learning the ins and outs of the industry I have gained many years of experience in product knowledge, demonstration and application of cosmetics. I continue to focus on the latest trends in bridal makeup and enjoy helping my clients feel their very best on their special day. The most important person is the bride and she must always look and feel her best.

I am an on-location artist in Cedar Rapids, IA and surrounding areas who will to come to you. I use all professional long-wearing products and offer trials and consultations. My goal is to help the bride and bridal party have an easy and amazing experience. I love helping others feel beautiful. Please take a look at my portfolio and if you like what you see I would love to be apart of your wedding day!

Reception Makeup

Kay did an amazing job with my wedding reception makeup. She came and did a trial run with me a few months before the big day, making sure everything was how I envisioned. On the reception day she applied my makeup exactly how I wanted and more!! I enjoyed my time with Kay and would definitely recommend her to anyone!

Makeup application is an art. Kay is an incredible artist.

I was the mother of the groom and not feeling pretty. I debated for a very long time, “do I spend the money, time, and energy” just to be disappointed and feel even worse. On this particular day though, my son was getting married and I really should at least “try”.
Right away when I walked in I knew this was the REAL DEAL. A display of makeup and tools to make a department store makeup counter look inadequate.
Meet the artist Kay; intelligent, confident, warm and genuine. She worked quickly, yet took all those tedious steps that matter. I was SO nervous when she handed me the mirror. Tears immediately started to swell in my eyes (ha not to worry, she even taught me how to dab not to wipe it all away!). SHE DID IT. Somehow, she was able to bring about a look that made me look “authentically pretty”!
Kay is an ARTIST. She is much more than an applicator of makeup. It’s different. It’ worth it! Do not think another moment about whether to do this. Make an appointment. You won’t be disappointed.

Kay is amazing! She is definitely experienced in what she does. Myself as well as my bridesmaids were all very happy with our make up. She really takes the time to understand the style, shape, and color of each girls face and everyone was gleaming with beauty by the end of it :). She is also super sweet and easy to talk to. I HIGHLY recommend her, she brings a ton of makeup and is very attentive to do whatever you want as a bride. I will also add that she is one of the more affordable people in the area and has just as good if not better quality that others.
