Tara does Gaga's makeup during her world tours and has done her makeup for countless appearances, videos, and photos. Throughout all this, Gaga and Tara have developed a close friendship. What makes her extra special is how much she cares about Gaga's fans. She hangs out with Little Monsters at shows, responds to their tweets and messages, and takes photos with them on the street. Another thing that makes Tara amazing is that she has lupus - a chronic inflammatory disease where your body's immune system attacks it's own tissues and organs - and doesn't let it slow her down.

Todd Delano

Todd Delano I love the story of Todd Delano. He worked at a makeup counter that Katy Perry would come to and get her makeup done by him before she was famous. He did her makeup a month before I Kissed A Girl hit the airwaves, and after if became a hit, she came back to him and asked him to quit his job and become her personal makeup artist. Now, years later, they are still working together. He is the man behind Katy's signature full, bright lips and thick brows. He is the perfect example of dreams coming true.

Lauren Shurney

Lauren Shurney Lauren Shurney, better known as The Queen of Blending, has been a makeup artist since 2005. As a stay at home mom, she began turning toward makeup in her spare time. She discovered she really had a talent and a love for the art and began taking professional classes. Her peers dubbed her "The Queen of Blending." She loves to boasts that your "unwearable" is "wearable" to her! She is famous for her YouTube beauty tutorials. Her cut creases are enviable and her looks are usually bright and glittery. It may shock you to find out that many of her clients are brides. It's proof that Lauren is fantastic no matter what look she is doing.

I am a huge fan of these amazing makeup artists and believe they are among the best of their craft. I love all their creations from simple and elegant, to the bold and daring. Do you know of any amazing makeup artists we should know about? If so, please share in the comments!

Wayne Goss! He gives the most fabulous tutorials and advice on his YouTube channel "Gossmakeupartist". If you've never seen his videos, you are missing out! When I first really wanted to learn how to transform my look I turned to his tutorials and now I look better than I ever have before. It's funny how a few little tips can really take your look from "just okay" to BAM! Also, he is the only person who really taught me contouring and highlighting techniques that actually made difference to my look! I love him!!!

Lisa Eldridge is just so amazing! I adore watching her videos on YouTube, she is like sitting and talking with a best friend. So gorgeous, and a beautiful soul to go along with it!

Don't forget Charlotte Tilbury!

Queen of blending <3 I'd let her do my wedding makeup, I don't do this natural thing.
