About Us
Where confidence meets glam—born in Scottsdale, shining worldwide.
Founded in 2015, The Sparkle Bar was created to make getting ready the best part of your day. Now, as we celebrate a decade of artistry, community, and unforgettable moments, we remain committed to one mission: helping every person feel beautiful, confident, and seen.
From our Scottsdale studio to stages, weddings, pop-ups, and global destinations, we’ve become more than a makeup studio—we’re a movement.
Our Story
When Alexandra Bradberry launched The Sparkle Bar in 2015, she imagined a space where makeup was more than surface-level glam. It would be inclusive, intentional, and joyful—a place where all faces, all ages, all stories were celebrated.
Over the past 10 years, that vision has grown into a brand trusted by clients, partners, and companies across the country. From milestone moments to corporate activations, we’ve proven that beauty has the power to connect, uplift, and transform.
At The Sparkle Bar, we don’t just apply makeup—we create experiences.

Sparkle Academy
In 2025, we launched Sparkle Academy, our education platform for aspiring and working artists. It’s where artistry meets entrepreneurship, teaching makeup skills and the business strategies needed to thrive.
Through intimate trainings, certification, and mentorship, Sparkle Academy equips the next generation of artists to create careers they love—and to carry The Sparkle Bar’s mission of confidence and inclusion into the world.
