Polished Chaos Christine HINZMANN Citizen staff
People may forget what her dress looked like. People might not notice her hair. But one thing people never forget is the look on the bride’s face on her wedding day. That’s where Katie Horodyski of Polished Chaos comes in. Katie was born and raised in Prince George and started doing makeup for weddings and photography shoots about six years ago. She then officially opened her beauty service business, Polished Chaos, two years ago. Katie started Polished Chaos as a blog about self care and self love and openly talked about mental health. She picked the name because she said it
describes her perfectly. “Within that search for self love I realized that I had been doing makeup on the side for many years,” Katie said. “I found that was my happy place. I then slowly started to shift Polished Chaos towards beauty and makeup and then it just kind of stuck.” She’s been an esthetician for about a decade, has worked as a court clerk and other jobs that she felt were so very far away from her bliss. Katie said because she loves weddings, Polished Chaos offers a different kind of service. “I love weddings and the fact that I get to be a part of the most exciting beginning of the day I wanted - selfishly - to be more involved in the wedding,” she said.
