April is the BEST! From start to finish, she was very responsive and communicative. She is so nice and so easy to get along with. I do not wear makeup ever and she was so helpful with my many questions. She made great suggestions but also respected what I wanted and didn't want. My whole bridal party looked amazing and felt beautiful. I would truly recommend working with April for any and every event!
April was absolutely amazing, my bridal makeup looked absolutely amazing and lasted through the day and evening. My bridal party was stunning!!! they were all so happy as well. I can not thank April enough for making us all feel fabulous for my special day 🥰
April is one of the sweetest and genuine people I have worked with! She’s professional yet super friendly and really makes sure you get the best out of your look. She’s knowledgeable and her technique is beautiful! I’d hire her over and over and will continue to utilize her spectacular services! Thank you for making me feel so beautiful on my special day April!
I wish you could leave more then 5 stars for April. I had my entire families pre wedding services with her, nails & spray tans, I would not trust any one else with the task but her. Her work is amazing and she is so kind and caring and will make sure everything is perfect. I would recommend all of April’s services for your wedding you will not regret it.
April was so amazing to work with! Her professionalism was above and beyond while still sociable and fun with us! Her process was extremely sanitary and I loved how my make up looked, it was the perfect natural glam!
I found April Gusler Makeup on the knot while searching for a makeup artist for my wedding that was in July. I first had April do my makeup trial for my save the date photos and loved how the makeup came out! She made sure that it looked exactly they way I wanted it to. April has a great personality and is very professional and uses great products. On the day of my wedding she made everyone in my wedding party feel beautiful and comfortable. I would definitely go back to April for her services and recommend her to anyone who is looking for a makeup artist for their wedding.
April is amazing in every single way! From the minute I met her for my consultation her bubbly personality was infectious and her knowledge on skin and makeup made me feel so very comfortable in her capable hands!
She was a joy to have in my bridal suite.om the wedding day and everyone's makeup came out flawless - and unique to the individual!! I found while searching that a lot of makeup artists do just one "look" but that is not April - she gives the client what they want and what looks best on them!! She also had to bring a second makeup artist with her for come of my girls and her selection was perfect because she was excellent as well!
Her professionalism was also unbeatable! Always responsive and engaged and did a great job timing out the makeup to make sure everyone was ready day of with no time crunch and that I was stress free but also not ready too early.
Clearly I can't say enough about April's excellence, you should absolutely book her for your big day!!!
I also used (and will continue to use) April as my esthetician leading up to the big day, booking multiple facials with her in the months leading up to my wedding, and she had my skin radiant and glowing and ready for the big day! Oh! And I also used her for my spray tan which was also perfect! (Important to note she did NOT push any of those services on me, I just happened to become obsessed with her)
April. Is. The. BEST!!! I was extremely picky when it came to picking my wedding makeup artist; it took me longer than it did to find my other vendors. When I found April and spoke with her on the phone, I immediately got those warm and fuzzy feelings and knew she would be the perfect fit. She clearly knew her stuff, and when I went for my bridal trial, she further proved that. Fast forward to my wedding day, and she blew it out of the water!! I was her first "glitter bride", meaning I wanted actual glitter in my eye makeup, and she was so excited to do it!
A fear of mine was that I would look orange or fake, and that was no issue with April. She has such a natural style. My wedding makeup was perfect, and my bridesmaids' makeup was too! Worth every penny. Thank you April!!

April is fantastic!!! She is so patient and has such an awesome personality, from the moment I met with her for my trial, I felt so at ease. The girls and I all loved how our makeup came out, and my girls couldn't stop telling me how awesome she was and how much they loved how their makeup came out! I truly am so happy and grateful to have found such an awesome person to be our makeup artist for my special day, and will definitely be using her in the future for my skin care needs!
Wow! April is amazing!! I would absolutely recommend her to any bride! She made every step of the process stress free and enjoyable. My makeup turned out FLAWLESSLY. Our backyard wedding was on a very hot day and the makeup April applied stayed on all day and all night. I felt so beautiful! Thank you, April! You are wonderful!
Got my wedding make up done with April! I am very picky with my make up and she did an absolutely beautiful job! She really listened to what I wanted and everything was thoroughly cleaned. Very professional and punctual.
April was 100% the right choice for my wedding makeup! I am someone who normally does not wear a ton of makeup (BB cream, blush, and mascara) so I wanted to be really careful when choosing a vendor because I wanted to make sure I still looked like myself. After I checked out April's website and talked to her for the first time on the phone I knew she was the one!! Even when I went in for my wedding consultation, I was 45 minutes late to an hour appointment (I didn't factor in the traffic and it took me 3 hours to get there!) she sat me down and got to it all while still chatting and making me feel so comfortable. What she was able to do in such a short amount of time was nothing short of spectacular and it was even better on the day of. April was so fun and flexible and we loved just hanging out with her on the big day while getting ready!! She even helped my mom with some fake lashes on the day of to make sure she felt just as beautiful as we did :) All of my bridesmaids were in love with their makeup and we all felt so gorgeous without feeling like we had a ton of makeup caked on to our faces. I truly have never felt so beautiful!! Besides being incredible talented April is just an absolutely joy to work with! Lock her down for your wedding you will not regret it!!!
Hired April as my MUA for my wedding and to do my wedding nails. I picked her because I wanted a soft glam look and she made that happen! Loved my make up, and all my bridesmaids also loved theirs and commented on how easygoing and friendly she was. I also did some facials with her before the wedding to get my skin ready. It really did make a difference with my skin! I highly recommend her for makeup as well as skin care and nails. She has a special talent with nail art. My wedding nails were exactly what I envisioned.
April is awesome!! I rarely wear makeup so I had no idea what I wanted for my shower/rehearsal dinner/wedding and she helped walked me through each event! It was great! She is very professional, showed up on time and kept me at ease on very stressful days! You will not be disappointed if hire her for your special occasion
April is an amazing makeup artist and any bride would be lucky to have her!! Professional, personable, creative, and unique and just a few ways to describe her style and service. In June of 2016, April spent the morning with myself my bridesmaids, and my mother and we couldn’t have been more pleased with her makeup service. Aside from April’s top notch makeup application, she beams with enthusiasm and LOVES what she does. Her attention to detail and love for her work truly shows. You can rest assure that April delivers and gives her clients what they want. She can also be 100% trusted to make any “unsure” bride or bridesmaid look absolutely beautiful. I’d describe my wedding look as “dramatically natural” — exactly how I’d imagined my makeup to be for the big day. Book April Gusler Makeup for your wedding— she is absolutely terrific.
April was amazing! Not just making me feel beautiful for my special day (I loved my makeup and even with crazy dancing, did not need any touch ups), but also with my family. My mom and mom-in-law originally did not want anything done, but decided day of for a little extra special make up (and luckily we had enough time and April was so accommodating). My Mom felt absolutely beautiful and that was more important to me then anything (given that she has never had her make up done professionally before). Would recommend to ANYONE and EVERYONE and plan on coming back to her if I ever have a future special event.
April did my bridal makeup (and several bridesmaids) onsite at my wedding venue. She used high end products and really listened to what I wanted. The outcome was fantastic! April was professional and committed to hygiene/sanitation. I would recommend her to anyone trying to look their best for a special event.
I had the pleasure of hiring April for my wedding in October for myself, my wedding party & mother. She was professional, fun and made everyone feel absolutely beautiful. She brought her nice, calm personality on a very stressful day and I will forever appreciate that.
April is not only full of personality, but she is ambitious, creative, and confident as well!
April was great! I don’t wear a lot of makeup in my everyday life and I was worried I wouldn’t feel like myself. Luckily, April totally understood and made me feel beautiful and comfortable all day.
April is the best. She genuinely cares about your look and how happy you are with it. She makes notes at your trial and replicates for the day. She answers any and all questions and is quick with responses. Very organized and has a clear breakdown of the cost.
Not only is she talented, but she’s really funny and down to earth. We had a great morning getting ready and laughing with her. I would absolutely use her again and definitely recommend her!!
I cannot say enough good things about my experience with April. Aside from being beyond professional, organized and friendly, she is extremely talented! I was fortunate to have my initial consultation done on the day of my wedding shower. Before starting, she asked about my likes/dislikes and what look I was going for. She nailed it! On my wedding day she not only did my make up but my mother, mother in law, and 4 bridesmaids. She made us all feel very comfortable and everyone looked so beautiful. Our make up lasted the entire evening, even after dancing for hours. I highly recommend April for any event, not just weddings!
April did my makeup and bridal party makeup. I really enjoyed the trial makeup appointment we first did, she had some great advice and ideas to steer me towards the perfect look for my wedding. She is so fun, funny, sweet and skilled.
I joke and say if I ever win the lottery I’m going to have to hire her as my personal makeup artist!
I definitely recommend her!
If you are a Bride looking for a Makeup Artist for your Wedding I strongly recommend April Gusler of Plaistow NH . She was the Makeup Artist at my Daughter ‘s Wedding , October 7, 2016 at The Harrington Farm , Princeton Ma. She was fabulous. She was very punctual and very patient. She
explained what she felt was best for all of us and she was spot on. All 13 of us were thrilled with the Makeup.As the Mother of the Bride I couldn’t have asked for anything more. April is a true professional and I guarantee you won’t be disappointed if you chose her. The email address for her is aprilguslermakeup@gmail.com
I chose April to do my makeup for my wedding since she had done my makeup at several other weddings and events, and I had always been thrilled with her work. Not only is April professional and very knowledgeable, she is also extremely personable. She remembers (and kept notes!) on my likes and dislikes for makeup styles, which was GREAT since I typically only know how to operate a mascara wand ;) On your wedding day, you want to minimize your stress and worries as much as possible. With April, I knew I was in good hands, and getting my makeup done felt like a relaxing treat, instead of part of the to-do list. She listened to what I wanted, was willing to tweak things here and there as we went along, and made me feel 100% comfortable. Her sense of humor fit right in with my wedding party, and she kept us laughing all afternoon. I would recommend April 100 times over (and think that I already have, since all of my friends have used her for their weddings!) You can't beat a makeup artist with incredible talent AND a wonderful heart.
April did my wedding make up, my bridal parties, and the two mothers. Everyone was thrilled with their make up! April showed up early, had a very professional set up with lots of options, and worked non stop to get all of our make up done with time to spare.
I had April do our makeup for my sons wedding. She did mine and my three daughters. She did a great job we all looked amazing. She listened to what we wanted and understood what look we were going for. Her products she uses are great. Our pictures were so so good. I would use April Gusler again and recommend her. You will have one of the most professional experiences. From the booking and pre wedding interview and day of the wedding . April understands what weddings are and what brides and wedding party are looking for. Gale V.
April is great – everyone looked stunning day of the wedding! She’s fun and easygoing and was super wonderful to work with. Her and her partner traveled to meet us on site and were prompt and quickly set up and got going on all the girls, delivering beautiful looks catered to what each girl asked for. She had a schedule and plan for the day and worked with our hair stylist to make sure all 11 of us got our makeup done!
I appreciated how at ease April made me feel. I was very stressed about my makeup and she was patient and flexible about that. She took detailed notes at my trial and didn’t rush me while I fussed around with my contouring! When I emailed her post trial mentioning my foundation had come off, she brainstormed more options for me for the wedding day. My makeup didn't last all day but made it through the most critical photos so appreciated her change of foundation!
I really feel like they knocked it out of the park. In the natural lighting photos from the wedding everyone looked like models! She is a totally great deal and a wonderful addition to any wedding party’s preparation and I recommend her wholeheartedly!
I cannot say enough amazing things about April! I have hired her several times to do my makeup for events, and she was the first vendor I locked down for my wedding! She is the only one I trust with my face. Her knowledge and skill blow me away every time. Whether it's a glam or natural look you are going for, she will master it! Aside from her talent, she is kind, caring, and unbelievably helpful in making sure everything is perfect and you feel beautiful. She provides resources and instruction, and I have noticed a considerable improvement in my own application since having worked with her. I have recommended her to family and friends and they have all said the same thing- She is incredible and such a joy to work with!
