Almari Beauty Artistry

Condensing my kit because my repeat client likes a little less makeup… and because this thing is HEAVY. 😂 My back said, “girl, pack accordingly.”
•
Meanwhile, I’m stopping every 30 seconds to play Grandma, tuck in a baby doll, wipe tears, get snacks and provide blankets. 😂
•
Because most days, you’ll find me in a messy bun, no makeup, getting s**t DONE. The glam is for my clients. 😂
•
Mom life. Business owner life. Household duties…oh and now that school is on let’s not forget teacher….I’m never doing just ONE thing. 💅🏽
•
And apparently… I’m a grandma now. 🥹😂
•
Anyone else swap kits between specific clients? 🙋🏽‍♀️ I have bridal trials this weekend, so this keeps my main kit organized, clean, and ready to go—with just a few things to clean after today! Happy Friday!
•

A little re-introduction… ✨
•
If we haven’t officially met…I’m Ally. 💋
•
Mama of three. Wifey from The Ville. Licensed esthetician. Makeup artist. Business owner. Spicy yet Lovable Latina and Professional Multitasker. 😜
•
I built Almari Beauty Artistry from a love for beauty, but somewhere along the way it became so much more than makeup. It became a space where women feel seen, confident, powerful, and completely themselves.
•
I’m raising three babies, running a household, building a business, chasing my dreams, and doing it all in a city that hasn’t always felt like it was built for women like me.
•
But babyyyy…I’m walking the walk anyway. 💃🏽
•
Still learning. Still growing. Still booking the brides and the baddies…still making magic!
•
And yes…in true Ally fashion, this photo is over a year old because apparently I was too busy building this life, wiping butts and cleaning my kitchen for the 1000th time! 😂🥂
•
So, if you’re new here….hey boo, tell me alittle about you! 😘
•
Again…my name is Ally Marie Rivera (ALMARI) and this mama is just getting started. ✨🖤

It was always in her…I just made sure everyone else could see it! 🤍🤩
•
My Bride Olivia radiates beautiful energy and I had such a great time creating this glam for her on her wedding day!

Turning engagement photo glam sessions into wedding day dreams…one glow at a time. 🤍✨
•
My girl Victoria came to see me last month for her engagement photo makeup but unfortunately got rained out. We got to run this glam back a second time and it just keeps getting better!

Shayla trusted me with one of the biggest glam moments of her life, and I was determined to make sure she looked like the absolute best version of herself. Safe to say…I understood the assignment. 🤍
•
That dress reveal? STUNNING.
That confidence? Everything.
Bridal glow? Achieved!
That glam? Built to last from “I do” to the dance floor.

There is always a moment, usually right after I hand my bride the mirror. ✨
•
The room gets quiet, her eyes light up, and suddenly everything starts to feel real.
•
Those are the moments I love most. You bring the Beauty and I bring the Beat! 🥰
•
Thank you to my girl for trusting me with one of the biggest mornings of your life, and happy belated birthday!
