If this was the only section of my website that you read, I would want you to know that makeup to us is a passion, not just a job. It gives me the ability to help women feel and believe in their truest beauty. Our goal is for you to forget all of the lies society has told you, and to help you see that you are enough and you are beautiful. There is only one of you in this world, so allow me to show you that you’re gorgeous just the way you are. See, I told you, this is more than makeup, people!

Veronica did an amazing job on my makeup for my wedding day! There were things we had to tweak from the trial, and she listened to all of my feedback to give me the perfect look. I'm the type of bride who really did not want a lot of makeup, and Veronica *perfectly* captured that energy by color matching my skin tone super well (which is tough to do as an olive toned girly) and giving me just the amount of glam to feel beautiful and still like myself on my wedding day. She also made my mom and sister look and feel incredible!

I have been in the beauty business for over 25 years. I worked at a salon for 15 years before I decided to branch out on my own. I love being a part of a Bride's wedding day and making her look and feel like a Queen! I also love managing my amazing team and teaching them things I have learned along the way. When I am not painting faces or managing my team, you can find me at home with my family or shopping at Home Goods with an iced coffee in my hand.

Swept, LLC was an absolute pleasure to work with this past year. The process for booking their services was so easy and Jamie, the owner, was great to work with. Sallie did my hair and makeup for our wedding day, as well as my mom’s, and she did a wonderful job! My hair and makeup lasted for 12 hours and was exactly what I asked for. My bridesmaids had hair and makeup done by Jordan and Lorena, both were excellent and so friendly. Everyone loved how their hair and makeup turned out! Their communication leading up to the event was detailed, transparent, and extremely professional. There were no hidden charges or fees, which I really appreciated. They arrived early and worked efficiently, leaving plenty of time for touch-ups to ensure everyone looked and felt their best. I was thrilled with the quality of their work and the value they provided. I would highly recommend Swept, LLC to any couple planning their wedding.

The Updos for I Dos team is amazing and so talented. My wedding planner recommended Updos to me and I could not be happier with having worked with them. I was matched with Liseth for hair and Andy for makeup, they both are so talented. Throughout the whole process the Updos team was very responsive, communicatIve and easy to work with. Before my trial they gave me opportunity to share inspo pics they could see exactly what I wanted. I sent the pictures and when I went to the trial both Liseth and Andy listened and did a great job. I did make a few changes however, I did love my look and the changes were very minor. On the day of the wedding both Liseth and Andy were on time and they did an awesome job on everyone’s hair and makeup. My whole bridal party looked beautiful and I couldn’t be happier with having chosen Updos for I Dos. Book them, you won’t regret it!

I had an amazing experience with The Stylist Abroad! Ashley, the owner, was absolutely fantastic and was incredibly communicative for the entire process. She answered every single question right away, and gave so much insight! For the trial and on the day of my wedding, my girls and I worked with Kim (hair) and Jenna (makeup), and they were both amazing. So kind, so friendly, and clearly knowledgeable! I was deciding between two hairstyles, and Kim was happy to try both in my trial. I had a couple things I wanted to change with my makeup, and Jenna was more than happy to accommodate! I was incredibly pleased with both looks on my wedding day, and everyone looked incredible!! I was definitely very blessed with the weather on wedding day, so that also helps, but hair and makeup stayed in place fabulously! The cherry on top is that everyone was just so sweet and easy to talk to!! Made the start of the day so pleasant and relaxed, and it seems like all my girls had a great time, too! Would absolutely recommend!!

Bianca is incredibly talented and just the best! She did the makeup for my May 2024 Indian fusion wedding (both for my wedding day and my Sangeet), and I could not have felt more beautiful. Something that was incredibly important to me when deciding on a MUA was finding an artist that is well experienced with a variety of skin tones. Bianca absolutely killed it while doing a variety of different looks. Leading up to my wedding, I went to Bianca for a few facials. The actual experience of the facial was so relaxing, and my skin was so hydrated and glowing leading up to my wedding. After my wedding, I also asked Bianca if she could do a makeup class for me. She had made me feel truly so beautiful (but still like myself). The class made makeup approachable for someone who has very limited makeup experience. She was SO thorough afterwards in all the materials she sent me with instructions and products listed to be able to recreate the looks we went over. I cannot recommend Bianca enough for all of her services!!

A luxury beauty experience for the modern woman! My beauty philosophy is simple, "When you look good you feel good.

As a high-end makeup artist servicing some of Washington DC's most prestigious residents for over eight years, I always found it hard to find my "Glam team".

I would recommend NRBeauty Co. to any bride to be. Nina is incredibly attentive and communicative in addition to being transparent about her pricing. Andrea and Andejla were my glam team, and I absolutely loved their work, as did the rest of my bridal party. The makeup and hair lasted for at least 12 hours (likely more). NRBeauty Co. was by far the most professional team I communicated with. I appreciated the portal Nina managed which included all communications, invoices, and glam guides. My bridal party also appreciated the Google form they submitted in advance of the day to share their inspo & desired looks! Nina also confirmed when the glam team was en route the day of the wedding, which was highly appreciated given how stressful the morning-of can be. To top it all off, they ran on time / ahead of schedule the day of the wedding!

Hello, I am a self taught freelance makeup and hair artist. I have been in this industry from past 6 years plus. This has always been my passion. I love meeting my new and existing clients. I take pride in the service that I provide to my clients.

Tina did my hair and makeup for my wedding and reception and made me look and feel beautiful as a bride! Right from our first conversation, she was very responsive and provided great guidance. During the makeup trial, she tried a few different looks and made sure she understood exactly what I wanted. Initially, we had agreed upon an arrival time of noon on my wedding day. But, due to some schedule changes, I asked if she would be able to come and start a couple hours earlier. She was very happy and eager to accommodate the schedule change at no additional cost. Moreover, she delivered great results even with limited time between my wedding and reception. Tina turned my bridal vision into reality and I couldn’t be more grateful. I am so glad I chose her to be my hair and makeup artist on my special day and I recommend her wholeheartedly!

We are an award winning talent agency composed of the beauty industry’s best. Each artist is carefully selected for your wedding based on their many years of experience, awards, education, licensing, talent and attention to detail. Now you can get ready in the comfort of your home, hotel or wedding venue instead of traveling to a salon or makeup counter. The benefits of working with an agency vs. a solo artist is that in the event of an emergency we are likely to have a replacement artist for you in addition to providing you with immediate correspondence.

RefEYEance had great communication throughout the booking process and had thorough coordination with Holly. Holly, the hair and makeup artist, was a dream to work with for our wedding day. She was so lovely at our trial and was open to any changes I wanted (really didn't have much). Holly was also so understanding when I decided to do my own hair, which wasn't a reflection of her work at all -- just wanted to feel like myself on the big day. We ended up having her do my makeup, two bridesmaid's hair and makeup, and my mother's hair. Everything was perfect. Holly is so personable and professional, and helped make the morning of the wedding calm and stress-free. The quality of her work was beautiful and everything on time. I highly recommend RefEYEance and especially Holly to any couple planning their wedding!

Tanya and the Aspire Beautiful team were so incredible!!

On my wedding day her team actually got all of our bridesmaids, moms, and me done with both hair and makeup AHEAD of schedule, everyone looked incredible, and all of our looks lasted all day despite the heat. You could also tell that she and her team got along super well with each other, which was really fun and added energy to our morning! If I ever have another event where I need to look glam I'm 100% considering Tanya and the Aspire Beautiful team; I can't recommend them enough!

Kendra Bliss Beauty

  • Team of 3
  • Serves Oakland, MD

Kendra Bliss is a self-taught, bridal makeup artist from Lanham, MD. Her passion for makeup artistry began in college. In 2011, she realized there was a shortage of makeup artists for women of varying skin color and types. Since she loved to get her makeup done and did not have a place to go, she decided to educate herself and be there. Since then, she has learned immensely by taking makeup classes, and consistently practicing with family and friends. Now she is published and recognized in the bridal industry in publications such as MunaLuchi Bride!

Kendra is the ultimate professional! As a Photographer, I rely on my Makeup Artist to do work that makes it easy for me to photograph and retouch. Whenever Kendra does makeup for my clients (as she is my preferred vendor), the makeup is flawless and I'm rarely doing any retouching. Aside from her makeup application, she's the ultimate professional. She's always on time, reliable, my clients always have a good experience and she's extremley creative!

Let’s chat! I love chatting…it’s totally my favorite! I’m Kristin Mastrangelo, (go head, try it out…it’s easier than it looks), a makeup & hair artist who specializes in wedding, special event, & television artistry, spending most of my time trying to think of PC ways to avoid putting on “real” pants. I’m a wife of 15 years & momster of 4. Obsessed with heavy metal, tea, all black everything, horror movies all the time, a creature of the night. I hate being late. Personally, I believe everyone should be at least a little weird...normal is a setting on a dryer...so embrace you, be different, and do what you want.

I cannot say enough good things about Kristin! She did hair and makeup for myself, two bridesmaids, our flower girl, and styled my grandmother’s hair on the morning of my wedding. Despite an unexpected hiccup due to a wreck on the interstate, therefore delaying her arrival to the venue, she remained so professional. Her positivity was probably the only thing that kept me calm that morning! She expertly adjusted the schedule, prioritizing myself and my maid of honor so I was perfectly ready for my first look. Not only did she work efficiently, but the results were stunning! I felt more beautiful than I ever have in my life. She truly captured the vision I had for myself, my family, and my bridal party. Beyond her incredible talent, she brought so much joy and fun to our morning. Her humor and warmth added to the excitement and ease of the day. I will absolutely be going to her for any future formal events, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a beauty professional who will make you feel gorgeous, confident, and completely cared for.

Erica was awesome to work with. I was a little nervous about my wedding makeup since I do not normally wear a lot of makeup daily. Erica completely crushed my makeup trial and my wedding makeup. I wanted some glam for my wedding, but also wanted to look myself. Erica gave me a great natural and glam look. I loved the airbrush makeup as it was light and felt like I wasn’t even wearing makeup. I got a lot of compliments on my makeup. Also, everyone loved their look on the wedding day. It held up great throughout the night. Her touchup bag was so cute that she gave me to reapply later in the night. I absolutely loved working with Erica. She was kind, quick to respond, helped put a timeline together for the wedding day, and cares about her clients. I recommend Erica for your wedding makeup needs.

Hi everyone! My name is Carol! I am a makeup artist based in South Jersey but I travel everywhere! I love what I do, I love being a part of your special day. I take pride in my work and truly enjoy working with you all every step of the way! I promise to make your glam dreams come true and keep myself affordable at the same time!

Karol was absolutely amazing to work with for my wedding day makeup! Communication leading up to the big day was fantastic - she responded quickly to emails and was very flexible when I had to make minor tweaks to the schedule. On the wedding day itself, Karol showed up right on time and immediately put me at ease with her warm personality. She asked questions to make sure she understood exactly the look I was envisioning. Once she started on my makeup, I was blown away by her skill, precision, and attention to detail. The final look was flawless and made me feel like the most beautiful bride. My makeup stayed perfect from the first look photos all the way through the reception dancing. I can't overstate how talented Karol is and what a joy she was to work with. Her rates were also very reasonable for the exceptional quality. I would enthusiastically recommend Makeup by Karol to any bride looking for a pro who will make you look and feel absolutely stunning!
