Blackthorn Bridal

using cruelty-free and vegan products was perfectly aligned with my values. I asked for some changes after our trial session, and she took that feedback and adjusted accordingly. I couldn't be happier with the result on my wedding day -- I had the beautiful, natural look I wanted, and the makeup held up through the ceremony and dancing as well. I would hire Cait again in a heartbeat.

had so many questions (that I’m sure I asked multiple times). She stayed patient with me and answered all of my questions. My husband and I got married during covid, so our plans changed as to where I was getting ready. She was very understanding, and had no hesitation in accommodating the changes. On the day of, Cait came more than prepared. Everything was clean and sanitized. She even went as far as to buy individual makeup brush sets so nobody used the same stuff. During the entire application we talked as if we were best friends. I felt so comfortable with her. Once my makeup was completed I was in awe. I never wear a lot of makeup and I thought I was going to feel uncomfortable. Let me tell you- I felt so incredibly beautiful. Her technique is ON POINT. I didn’t feel cakey at all. My makeup felt light, but I still looked like I was on a movie set or something. I got so many compliments, some people even complimented me more than once. I am so happy I worked with Cait!! If you want to feel and look great on your special day- don’t hesitate on reaching out to her. Cait is your girl for sure!!!

ng one today because my day would not have been as perfect with someone else. Cait created the perfect look for not only me but all of my bridesmaids (which let’s be honest- isn’t always easy). She made sure everyone was happy and accommodated a last minute request to help fix something after she had already packed up. There is not one negative thing I could say about her or the service she provided. I will be contacting her for all of my future cosmetic needs.

eople that brought good energy, were kind and would add positivity to the entire day. Cait definitely did all of this and more! She was quick to answer any and all questions I had leading up to the day, before and after my trial. She gave me great skin care tips ahead of my wedding and advice on how to negotiate some skin issues that I have. She made each of my bridesmaids and mother look gorgeous and allowed them each to shine which was so important to me. Cait is a gifted makeup artist and an awesome person to boot. She was so flexible and really knows how to treat her clients with great professionalism but is also fun and easy to talk to, a difficult combo to find! I can't recommend her highly enough!

ils. A month before the wedding, I had a very helpful makeup trial with Cait where we fine-tuned what I wanted -- she asked me good questions and made helpful suggestions. On the wedding day, Cait and her assistant were a total dream to work with. The entire makeup experience was so calming (I can't say enough about how nice the mini-facial was at a moment when I had such butterflies). Everyone looked absolutely stunning and Cait really captured my desire to have everyone look like a glowing, fancy version of their natural beautiful self. My sisters and bridesmaids looked gorgeous, and my mom, who truly never wears any makeup at all, was really happy with her look. My own makeup was just what I wanted -- natural, but glowing. Thank you Cait for being such a lovely part of the wedding day!

up they wanted and she made both of them comfortable, happy and beautiful! She was great at accommodating my difficult schedule for a trial, and really went out of her way to make everything work! She also had a great calm demenor that was great in the chaos of wedding getting ready!

different (which I have experienced with other makeup artists). Cait pulled this off with flying colors! I felt beautiful and natural. She was extremely thorough during my trial and replicated the look on my wedding day. Not only is she talented but she also has a calming energy which I found to be very comforting on a day that can be so stressful. She was professional and made the payment process very simple through an online invoicing portal. When having so many payments to keep track of, this was a detail that I really appreciated! I highly recommend Cait and her services!

made me feel like I was wearing a mask. But when I met Cait for our wedding shoot, those worries vanished. Her bubbly personality and charm helped me smile and relax, and she paused to make sure I felt confident in my appearance every step of the way. I was also highly impressed with how prepared she was to work with my biracial skin tone! From a deep tinted moisturizer to the perfect lip shade, Cait created a surreal but natural look for me. And now when I look at the canvases hanging on our walls, I don’t see an overly-altered version of myself—I see me! And I cannot thank her enough for making that happen.

when she offered her advice in a meltdown thread I’d posted on Facebook, she was one of the very few who reached out without trying to sell her services; she just wanted to help. Right from our initial conversations she went above and beyond, and even took my booking (and pity on me) despite it being out of her usual work area. In the build up to the wedding she was super informative and made sure I knew exactly how to prep my skin, we had a ‘virtual’ trial and generally put me at ease. I think the best way to describe my experience of working with Cait is to say I absolutely cannot imagine my wedding day without her. Not only was her work impeccable, professional and exactly what I wanted but she was so supportive and truly looked after me the entire time she was with us. I was genuinely sad to leave her. She was super friendly, sweet and amazing; it felt like we’d been friends for years. In terms of the actual make up and application, Cait’s ‘skincare first’ approach definitely sets her apart from any other artist I’ve worked with or looked at working with. I was genuinely shocked at how little product I was wearing when I cleansed after the wedding was over, purely because my skin looked so perfect and I’m 100% certain its attributed to her prep work. There was no creasing, no ‘cake’ and my lashes didn’t budge one bit; which says a lot because we had our reception on a boat! I’ve also never seen a make up artist more prepared with such an extensive kit! The products used were all either professional or high end which was very impressive not to mention the magic she worked with them. There are literally not enough words to compliment or thank Cait for everything she did for me and my bridal party before, during and after the wedding. I’m truly excited for any bride who chooses to book with her for their special day, because they are in the best hands.

ning what look I wanted, and the experience was so relaxing with the skincare and exfoliation. Highly recommend!

ait is very professional and very good at what she does.

to cover the imperfections with a mix of stress acne. She spent so much time with me discussing every detail no matter how small to ensure I had the exact look I was going for for myself, my bridesmaids, my mother and my now mother in law! She went above and beyond to help make my make up perfectly flawless, and it lasted all night even with all the dancing! She was warm, friendly, extremely professional, incredibly knowledgeable! Since my wedding I have booked Caitie several other times for different events, I will continue to book Caitie! Thank you Caitie for everything!

p. I also wear no makeup on a daily basis.On my wedding day, I did not want products caked on my face or to feel like I was performing. Cait listened to my request of "barely any makeup" and "only enough to make me look normal in photos" perfectly. She also communicated promptly, effectively, and kindly (what bride doesn't want that?!). Thank you, Cait Bozzone Esthetics & Makeup, for making me look and feel so beautiful on my wedding day. I can't recommend Cait enough! This aesthetician/ makeup artist is the vendor you want to book if you desire a quality and stress-free beauty experience.

talking about making this a part of her everyday routine. She was concerned with how her skin would be after since she doesn’t wear makeup regularly but not a single sign of a break out! Showing the products and application used to be top quality and great for those with sensitive skin! Neither my wife or myself is big on people being in our personal space yet Cait made us feel so at ease, her skill and talent provided us with gorgeous magical photos we will cherish for a lifetime! We would recommend Cait to anyone looking for artistic talent and great energy for their special event, day or occasion!

it’s info and after speaking with her felt immediately at ease. She came up to my wedding venue (with no cell reception in the middle of the Catskills) with no problem and was an absolutely BLESSING! She was not only a super great person but did flawless makeup on us all! She made us feel so comfortable we really wanted her to stay and celebrate with us!! I felt so confident on my special day and I can’t thank her enough! I can’t wait for the next big event to go to so Cait can do our makeup again!!!

y own clients. Her gorgeous work stands for itself but her wonderful personality and dedication to her career and clientele are what really sets her apart. There isn't one product or regimen Cait uses that she isn't incredibly knowledgable about. She takes immense pride in her work and it always comes through in the final product. You will never find anyone as devoted to their brides as Cait. She'll make you look and feel like a million bucks on your big day.

problem she would do it but what she did was just beautiful. I’m not someone who is easily pleased and I really was. My 10 year old daughter looked stunning but not too old which I loved. She was super professional and yet we felt so comfortable with her. We can’t thank you enough Cait!! Thank you for making me feel gorgeous on my sons big day!!
