In this day and age, it is almost impossible to find somebody who truly loves what they do. Cicilia is one of those amazing people, she sat with me for hours working until every last detail was perfect, and she never let out a sigh (and when I say perfect, I mean PERFECT) She makes you feel extremely comfortable, and works with you as a individual, highlights your strong features and tucks away the \"bad bits\". Highly professional, she knows what she is doing from start to finish. Her makeup is of top standard, and has a massive rage of products and goodies to play around with. To top it all off, she has an incredible sense of humour and shows great hospitality. She has shown me what a great difference a MUA can make in a shoot, and I probably won\'t work without one ever again. She treats you like a queen, she makes you look like a queen, she makes you feel like a queen, and you will walk away thinking that you are a queen =)
Thanks again

Wow, this woman did magic on me. She made me look like a queen. CK knows her work very much and I can work with her over and over again. Very kind at heart and has a way of making you believe that you have all that it takes to succeed in what you want to do. CK was my first make up artist and she made look like someone I have never seen before.
You are one of the best in the business;
keep it up and Good Luck.

Cicilia is such a beautiful person.... full of energy, has a passion for what she does, which makes our lives (as the model) so much easier...feeling comfortable with our MUA. She made me laugh all the time, and ironically we would be thinking the exact same things (like what pose to do) at the exact same moment. Her make up is stunning and the best thing is, it can be dramatic, beautiful or pretty.... which is why having Cicilia do your make-up is so much fun and stress free.... never knowing what she might do, but always excited to find out. Would work with her again any day....
love ya doll ;O)

Cicilia Kaufmann is extremely talented and creative is an understatement when it comes to Cicilia Kaufmann. In everything she does her passion of being a Make-up Artist shines through. She is energetic and has a stunning sense of humour. Cicilia is all about perfection, pushing the limits and creating a work of art.... and enjoying every second while doing it. She is wonderfully organized, extremely neat and creativity has no boundaries for this woman. For Cicilia and her make-up there's no mountain that she cannot climb...she reaches the top and then immediately starts looking for a new challenge. This wonderful woman has no limitations when it comes to reaching perfection with every task no matter how big or small or the time frame - she will go to the end. She has the ability to enhance every models strong feature and is an absolute dream to work with. Every Photographer and Model who works with Cicilia will get to see that perfection and passion is what she is made of. Cicilia I can only see you go higher and higher.
All the Best Kind Regards
love ya doll ;O)

It was very sudden but from seeing Cicilia's portfolio, I didn’t want to let the opportunity pass me to work with this incredible make-up artist. Well, Cicilia, you blew my breath away with what you did. It was such a pleasure to have worked with you. I love your personality and we got along immediately. I will work with you anytime and I am honoured to be the one who could make your beady headgear become a reality. I think a lot of people can learn from you. You and Rene are a wonderful team and make anyone feel so at home. I truly hope that I will have the opportunity to work with you again!!

Cecilia Kaufmann should be an inspiration to all make-up artist’s out there. Her passion alone is something to look up to. She transforms her models into the absolute essence of beauty and she is a pleasure to work with! I look forward to our next shoot:)

What a lady! Thanks Cicilia for making me look more beautiful than I've ever felt! Cicilia is warm and welcoming. She has a heart of gold and fingers that can work magic on your face! You can have a good laugh with her but when she gets down and dirty (with her makeup that is) then she's as professional as you can get! She's wonderful and if I could....I'd make use of her everyday!! :) Oh, and she has the most adorable cat! Thanks for everything Cicilia.....
YOU'RE THE BEST!!

Hi Louis, nog een :o)
After reading all the previous references, it is hardly possible to think of anything to say that has not been stated - and reiterated! - Already. "World-class" is what I though whilst we were working together. That sums it up for me. Cecilia, it will an absolute honour and pleasure to work with you again

I have never felt more beautiful than the way I did after Cicilia did my makeup. Cicilia is a wonderful and extremely talented MUA and I would recommend her to any model or photographer. She is extremely professional and makes a model feel comfortable and inspired.

Dearest Cicilia,
Sorry it is a little belated but I just wanted to say a huge thank-you doing the make-up at my wedding. I felt like a princess from start to finish and it was definitely the best day of my life. I can't believe the wedding and honeymoon is all over already and we are both back in the UK again in this freezing crappy weather. I have attached some photos for you to keep or put up on the website if you wish.
Thank again and take care

Hi Cicilia
Sorry that it took so long for these to get to you, but I recently got them…. I am so happy with all of them, he was a great photographer and with the beautiful make up it all was perfect. So thanks a million. Since the wedding, I decided to a make up course for the fun of it, I’m doing the course on Saturdays with “house of José”…. I am having an absolute blast with it…. When I’m done, I’ll probably just do make up for friends and people I know… nothing too hectic. So thanks for the inspiration.I hope that all is well, I’m sure that your busy as usual, especially with all the weddings coming up in the warmer months…
Keep well, Blessings,
Bianca

Hallo Cicillia
Ek moet net weer sê BAIE DANKIE vir die ongelooflike grimering vir my troue. Jy het my sowaar soos 'n prinses laat lyk. Ek het altyd gedink dat die "after" fotos gephotoshop is....totdat ek my gesig gesien het nadat jy klaar met hom getoor het(dit laat my nogal dink aan die storie van die lelike eendjie wat verander het in die pragtige swaan). Jy het 'n buitengewoon gawe om net die heel pragtigste in 'n profiel uit te bring. Ek gebruik jou enige dag weer......alhoewel nie vir troue nie want ek was gelukkig genoeg om ook 'n wonderlike bruidegom die eerste keer te kry. As daar van die fotos is wat jou man geneem het wat mooi is sal ek dit waardeer
as jy dit dalk vir my kan e-mail of op CD kan sit dan sal ek dit by jou kom kry. Jy is enige bruid se droom.
Baie dankie!

Beste Cicilia
Net 'n kort briefie om dankie te se vir die grimering wat jy gedoen het op ons troudag. Jy het absoluut wondere verrig, en dit is ongelooflik om te sien hoe jy "toor" met grimering.
Weereens baie baie dankie

Hi there Cicilia,
I would like to thank you for the wonderful make up that you did for Lauren's wedding last Thursday. Your input was greatly appreciated. Lauren would like to have a lesson or two with you in the new year and was also interested in purchasing the make up you used as it gave such a wonderful finish. Hope to hear from you soon in this regard
Again thanks for everything

Liefste Cicilia,
Woorde is net nie voldoende nie! Hoe sê 'n mens dankie vir die persoon wat die belangrikste dag van jou lewe in 'n fantastiese sprokies-verhaal laat verander het?Ek het nog altyd geglo ek is 'n gewone meisietjie met 'n gewone, "girl-next-door" gesiggie…Maar in JOU kundige, kunstige hande, het ek in 'n ware prinses verander!Dankie dat jy jou tower-grimeer-kwassies geswaai het, en 'n transformasie laat plaasvind het wat ek nog NET in rolprente gesien het! Dit was my pragtigste, wonderlikste dag - alles te danke aan JOU, Cicilia!Ek kannie wag tot die volgende keer wat jy jou "magic" op my gesiggie werk nie - jy's heel bo op my "speed dial"!
Tonne Liefde.

Had the pleasure of working with Cicilia recently. Had a vague idea of what I had in mind and Cicilia transformed it into reality! She was professional as well as very friendly and felt at ease with her throughout. She also makes a great photographic assistant! She has an enormous array of makeup...things I wouldn’t even hazard a guess at!! Would recommend her to anyone wanting that something special.

Cicilia is fantastic. A make up artist is invaluable to any shoot, and she went out of her way to make our shoot a success. She offered up her home for us to use, and is extremely professional. I will definately use her again and again and again.

Cicilia has an amazing talent for studying a face and coming up with a look that transforms a model by using their features to best advantage. She is both ambitious, and realistic. If she thinks a particular look won't work for you, she'll tell you, but what she comes up with she doesn't do half-heartedly. I love working with Cicilia, as I know she brings the best out of any model I work with!
