From One to Many…

Tara now heads up a boutique team of highly skilled mobile hair and makeup artists that provide mobile hair and makeup services at your home, office or hotel. They pride themselves on listening to their clients requests as well as offering their expert advice in order to create the perfect, tailored look for you and your event.

Whether you have booked at the gorgeous Raine Square Studio, or a mobile service with one of the team, you will receive the same caring service which focuses on client experience and natural looking makeup using only the best quality products.

Makeup that feels like you

If you want to look like everybody else, you’ve definitely come to the wrong place. I’m not in the business of sculpting faces to look like the hoards of women trying to be something, anything but themselves. What I do love to do is provide you with an experience that leaves you feeling relaxed, cared for, confident and beautiful. Our service isn’t simply about applying makeup, it’s about helping you to be the best version of you by giving yourself an hour of uninterrupted “me time”.

What you’ll get from a visit to the studio:

• A self-indulgent experience that fulfills the 5 senses

• A personalised consult to ensure a look is tailored just for you

• Quality products, which look and feel great

• Makeup that will bring out the best version of you AND last the distance

• Confidence that you will be heading off to your event looking and feeling unreal

What you won’t get:

• A cookie cutter makeup application

• Heavy contouring and foundation that looks like a mask

• Cheap ass products

• A rushed application, leaving you stressed and anxious

At the end of the day your looking for makeup

So yes, a fancy website and magazine covers aren’t worth anything if we don’t provide a quality makeup application. Our special event and Bridal Services include lashes and our kits are filled with quality products from MAC, Hourglass, Urban Decay, Smashbox, Too Faced & Nars to list a few. We have experience with sensitive skin types and pride ourselves on making non-makeup wearers feel comfortable and not overdone.

We also do hairstyling

The team and I can offer hairstyling services too. Whether you are looking to add hairstyling to an event makeup appointment, or you need makeup and hair for a large group wedding, Black Lash Makeup have you covered. With expert stylists as part of our crew, we can help you spruce up for Friday night drinks or recreate the Pinterest wedding hair of your dreams. In store or on location, it’s up to you.

Tara Clark, Owner and MUA at Black Lash Makeup, graduated from Australian College of Natural Health Sciences in 1996 & Australian College of Beauty Therapy in 2001 with Certificates in Makeup Artistry. In 2017 she completed an Advanced Certificate in Makeup Artistry from Artists at Play. Black Lash Makeup provides services for Special Events, Bridal and Branding Photography, as well as Private Makeup Lessons and Workshops. Clark’s work has been published in 5 issues of WA Wedding and Bride Magazine as well as other publications.

Tara Clark is the Founder and Lead Makeup Artist at Black Lash Makeup and mother to twin girls Sadie and Patience, daughter Luca and son Finn.

She received her first qualification in makeup artistry over 20 years ago but decided after children to turn her devotion for cosmetics into her full time gig.

Clark’s philosophy revolves around makeup that looks natural and most of all leaves you feeling like the best version of you. She believes in providing a self-indulgent experience where women can take time out for themselves.

Clark’s work has been featured on the cover of WA Wedding and Bride 5 times, as well as having written articles and featured in a number of other publications.

Clark believes that all women put themselves on the back burner with everyday pressures rendering their needs less important. Her approach is really about giving women back that time to feel good about themselves and attend their events feeling relaxed, confident and beautiful.

Black Lash was born out of necessity when, after having her 3 daughters via IVF, Clark unexpectedly fell pregnant with her son Finn. Facing the prospect of having 4 children under 4 years old, Clark felt it was too difficult to return to her 40+ hours a week job in the Finance industry. With makeup always a passion, Clark believed this was her opportunity to turn it into a full time career.

When Clark isn’t painting faces she can be found drinking wine with friends or at one of the many Perth Dance Competitions so she can live vicariously through her 3 daughters.
