  • Beautiful Makeup by a Lovely Professional

    Meli did a beautiful job on my wedding day makeup! I knew right away I wanted to work with her. She contacted me quickly and was very professional and easy to work with. We had a phone conference right away and set up a trial. She did exactly as I wanted and followed up after the trial to make sure I was happy with everything. I have sensitive skin and the makeup and lashes didn’t bother me one bit and lasted into the late night hours looking fresh! She is a kind and caring person and very friendly! You will not be disappointed!

    I cannot recommend Meli enough! From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive and even suggested a hairdresser she occasionally collaborates with—the equally amazing Rose Renda. Together, they truly were my dream team! Meli worked her magic on my makeup for me, two moms, and five bridesmaids, while Rose created stunning hairstyles for all of us. During our first consultation, Meli took the time to truly understand my vision and offered expert advice to ensure I looked and felt my absolute best. On the wedding day, both Meli and Rose brought such calm, positive energy that made the morning feel extra special. Meli’s makeup skills are absolutely unmatched—she perfectly enhanced my natural beauty while making sure everything stayed flawless through happy tears, hours of dancing, and the entire celebration. I received endless compliments on how radiant I looked! If you're looking for a talented, professional, and kind makeup artist, Meli is the one. Thank you, Meli, for helping make my wedding day unforgettable!

    Meli is the absolute best! She is so sweet and fun to talk too and her artistry is amazing ! I am very shy so it takes me awhile to get comfortable with people but I was comfortable with Meli from the start! She really is amazing at what she does

    Meli is the best makeup artist I could have asked for on my wedding day. I am so thankful to her for everything! From the trial, which helped me get an idea of what the experience would be, to the day itself, she was nothing but helpful. Meli showed up on time and ready to work, after a few minutes of setting up and a sip of coffee she was ready to go. Everyone was very impressed with how hard she worked! She kept us on schedule so we were able to walk out the door on time. I was impressed by how she was calm and collected while all the chaos was happening around her. All the ladies were so happy with their makeup, and each of us chose very different looks. From the young to the old we all looked glam and felt fabulous. I also changed my inspiration a bit from the trial to the wedding day, and she was more than flexible with adding a bit more glam to the look. She also communicated with me in the months leading up to the wedding, and I never felt like I was left in the dark about anything. My makeup lasted the whole day and I was so sad to take it off since that was the most beautiful I have ever felt. It even lasted through a torrential downpour in NYC as we were running to our hotel room - I looked in the mirror and still had the full glam face on! I would recommend Meli highly and am so happy I got to work with her!
