Owner

I've been creating since I can remember. It may have started with drawing and painting, but creating has always been my passion! I've been a makeup artist for over 11 years now, and over that time I have been very lucky to train and work with some incredible artists and companies. These include Lancome, Clinique, Bare Minerals, Shiseido and NARS and artists Jenny Smith, Manuel Villegas, Dani Fonseca, Sandy Linter and Kevin James Bennett. To elevate my skills, I decided to go to school to receive my estheticians license. I am also a mother to two little boys and a product junkie!!

Working with Dani and her team was an incredible experience for myself, my bridesmaids, and my family. Dani was extremely consultative & knowledgable throughout our initial consult, trial, and the day of the wedding. She was on time and so kind and MY MAKEUP HAS NEVER LOOKED BETTER. I am extremely particular about my makeup and Dani’s skill is seriously next level. My makeup never moved the entire day/night (even through the tears) and I felt like the best version of myself. Thank you so much Dani to you and your team for making myself and loved ones look and feel amazing. -cecilia quattrone

Dani was my favorite vendor to work with! If you are looking for someone who is kind, full of fun vibes, and who really listens to what you want for your makeup, choose Dani. You will not regret it! I am so happy I got to work with her. Everything was so easy and fun!

Dani did my makeup when I was a bridesmaid in 2019, and ever since then, I knew I wanted to work with her again. Although Dani is primarily based in Delaware, I arranged for her to come to Old City for my wedding. Dani not only listens attentively and cares deeply about skincare, but she is also an incredibly kind person. Her makeup chair became a sanctuary of calm amidst the wedding day chaos for both myself and my bridesmaids. She even provided my sister, the maid of honor, with a touch-up kit to ensure my makeup stayed perfect throughout the day. Thanks to Dani, everyone looked glowing and stunning.

Dani is insanely talented, SO easy to work with, and I wish getting wedding day glam from her could be an everyday occurrence. Could not recommend her more. Myself and my bridesmaids were THRILLED with how our makeup looked- it was natural, elevated glam. Thank you Dani for such an amazing wedding day experience!!

Dani was absolutely amazing! She and her team made me and my girls look and feel absolutely stunning on my wedding day. My makeup was flawless all day/night. I would recommend her again and again to anyone. Thank you so much Dani🫶🏻

You absolutely need to book Dani! She was the first vendor I booked and I’m so glad I did, everyone looked absolutely stunning - all 9 of us. I felt beautiful and completely comfortable in my own skin thanks to her. The entire process was so easy, we had a consultation when I first reached out and then stayed in contact until my makeup trial (which she nailed) and again until my wedding day. She was perfectly in sync with the wedding day timeline. She provides a bag of makeup goodies for wedding day touch ups, including full sized lip colors, though I didn’t need to use any of it because everything stayed in place for the full day/night. She is so incredibly talented, attentive, and just a great person - you will not be disappointed. I wish I could hire her every day of my life!

Dani is the best at what she does! She enhances your beauty instead of caking on make-up or making you look fake. Her artistry is flawless and she made me feel so beautiful. The make-up trail day she asked me about my normal skin care and make-up routine and asked what I feel comfortable with. My cousin had used her at her wedding years ago so we had to bring her back and she executed everything perfectly! They were even done early! I love her !

Trying to find someone who can make you look and feel like your best, most vibrant self without even knowing how to put that look into words? Dani can do it. I wanted an elevated-natural look and when I saw myself after she worked her magic, I felt like I saw myself the way I've always wanted to be seen. She was SO open to making a few adjustments after our trial and she fine tuned it perfectly. Not only is she a master of her craft, she is so kind, professional, brings positive vibes, and amazed my bridal party too! She is worth every penny! You will love her and she'll make you love yourself on your most special day.

Dani is the absolute best make up artist!!! She was super nice and very professional but also so much fun to work with! She and the girl she brought with her did such an amazing job on my make up as well as my bridesmaids, my mom and my mother in law. She made us all look so stunning! I am recommending her to everyone I know!!!

Delanie K

Dani was absolutely amazing!! She does a great job at listening and really making your envision come to life. As someone who doesn’t know anything about makeup she did a perfect job at helping me get the natural glowy look I wanted. Her communication was great throughout the whole process. All of my bridesmaids looked beautiful and everyone loved their makeup!! I would highly recommend Dani to anyone

Melanie H

Dani does exceptional work, she has now done my makeup twice for my daughter and daughter in laws weddings and each time I have felt very natural in the style of makeup she does for me. She listens to the bride and works to make her beautiful with her makeup lasting beautifully throughout the night. Ver y professional!

Megan R

Dani was an absolute dream. She was very responsive from the start. The makeup trial was a must! Dani took time to familiarize herself with your normal makeup routine and preferences for every makeup step. She gave great advice to take pictures throughout the day in different lightings to make sure the makeup was exactly how I wanted it to be for my wedding day. The day of the wedding, she was prompt and very easy going as she did the makeup for the bridal party and I. She even impressed my MIL who is very into skincare and makeup. The makeup stayed on flawlessly even when my husband shoved cake all over me face. Highly recommend!!!

Catherine H

Dani was absolutely amazing! I came to her frantically looking for a makeup artist soon before my wedding because my previous one cancelled on me, and let me say it was a blessing in disguise! Dani took my vision and made it happen like it was nothing. I can't recommend her enough!

Kayla T

If you are looking for a makeup artist, look no further. You have found the BEST! I hired Dani for my June wedding and she did such a phenomenal job, I cannot recommend her enough. She not only did a great job on my makeup but also my mom, MIL, and my bridesmaids makeup as well. Everyone was in love with the way their makeup turned out. Thank you Dani & Team for madding my wedding make up absolutely perfect. You truly made me & my bridal party feel and look our best for my very special day!

Krista S

7/06/2023

Wow, I cannot recommend Dani enough! She did my makeup for my engagement photos and my wedding day, and I absolutely loved the look. The airbrush makeup was flawless and lasted all day long during my beach wedding! From the beginning, Dani was so kind and professional and really took the time to get to know my preferences and style. My mom was so worried about getting her makeup done professionally (she never had it done before) and Dani made her feel so confident and beautiful. All of my bridesmaids were obsessed with their looks as well. If you're looking for a makeup artist for your wedding, Dani is your girl. I would not hesitate to book her again!

Heather S

7/03/2023

Dani did such a great job on mine and my girls makeup for my wedding day. Her experience in the industry and her ability to listen and communicate helped make the process a wonderful one to go through. I would definitely recommend her to anyone whether for a wedding or just a special occasion.

Alexandria P

Dani is AMAZING. From my makeup trial to the morning of my wedding, she was phenomenal. She makes sure everyone is comfortable with what she is doing and adjusts potential changes on the spot day-of. Legitimately EVERYONE was complimenting me, my bridesmaids, my mother, and my mother-in-law about our makeup the entire night. What I appreciate most is she ensures she compliments your natural face but heightens it with the love of the gods above. I can’t explain how much I appreciate what she did for me. Thank you, Dani!

Haley M

Dani was the absolute best for my wedding day! She made me look and feel so beautiful, and my whole bridal party loved her and her work! I can’t say enough about her. If your looking for a makeup artist, Dani is your girl ♥️

Dani is literally the Michael Jordan of makeup artists. I seriously have never felt better about myself than I did on my wedding day. Her airbrush is FLAWLESS. Every single one of my bridesmaids mentioned that it was the best professional makeup they've ever had done. She even traveled to Dover for us!

Corrine L

12/05/2022

Wow… BOOK DANI NOW. Some how, some way, the stars aligned and I was able to book Dani with only about a month left before my wedding. She is a GEM to work with. From trial, to following up after my trial, to the big day, she absolutely nailed my December wedding look. My bridesmaids were so happy with their makeup, my mother looked absolutely stunning, and my non makeup wearing MIL loved her natural glam look. not only did Dani and her assistant make my crew of 10 look like rockstars, they did it with time to spare. I cannot thank Dani enough for being such a huge part of my special day, and making me feel like the most beautiful bride. THANK YOU, DANI!!

Choosing Dani as my MUA was one of the easiest decisions I made through the entire wedding process! She was absolutely incredible to work with and does stunning work! Dani listened so well to what I wanted and I felt totally comfortable asking for changes/tweaks during our trial that when it came to my wedding day, she knocked it out of the park! We had a late addition to the number of people needing to get their make up done and she so graciously fit them in! She is a master at natural glam and I truly have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day. My bridesmaids and Mom all felt the same about their make up and we all received endless compliments. Dani is so kind and also helped to calm nerves the day of! I have nothing but wonderful words to say about her and the work she does 💖

From our first initial phone consultation, I knew that Dani was the makeup artist I needed to work with on my wedding day! Her unique ability to both listen and guide me towards a look that reflected my desire to look like the best version of myself was so spot on- from her emphasis on skincare to creating the ultimate bridal glow, I am so thankful for her magic!

Dani is hands down the best makeup artist I have ever worked with. She made me and the ladies in my party look absolutely flawless and stunning. Dani is so down-to-earth and charismatic. She works with you to achieve the look you want and then blows you away with the final look. It’s like way better than you ever imagined type of feels. She has a way to accentuate your features so you look totally glamorous and natural at the same time. She’s the absolute best and I would recommend her over anyone else. I’ve never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day and I owe much of that to you, Dani. Thank you!

Dani is the best of the best!! She did my wedding makeup for me and bridesmaids and also mother. We all loved it. She knows exactly what look your going for and her work is flawless! Couldn’t have found a better MUA. She’s so great to work with and takes her time

Kristen R

11/15/2022

I am absolutely obsessed with Dani’s work! She did my makeup trial for our engagement shoot and then also our wedding. Her attention to skin was my favorite…. making it look so glowy and natural. I don’t have the best skin, and she really made me feel so confident. My girls, bridesmaids, and moms were STUNNING as well. She crushed it. And not to mention, she has incredible energy (calm, cool, and so sweet) I absolutely recommend booking her asap!

Bradlee H

11/12/2022

Dani was the best to work with and is so so sweet. She was the first vendor I booked because I knew I needed her talented makeup skills on my wedding day! From my trial to wedding day she worked with me to make me feel beautiful (as well as my bridesmaids!!). I felt absolutely stunning walking down the aisle and got so many compliments on my makeup! I also really appreciated her professionalism and attention to detail. Thank you so much Dani for everything!

Liz D

11/09/2022

Dani was out of this world! She not only made me feel as beautiful as ever but had every single one of my girls feeling the same. She’s beyond professional, kind, and works very quickly. I recommend her to anyone who really wants the perfect getting ready experience on your perfect day!

Dani is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is one of the sweetest people you will ever meet and takes pride in her work. She did my make up(bride) and all my bridal party make up and did an absolute phenomenal job. I highly highly recommend her to anyone who needs their make up done. I would use her again in a heartbeat!

Dani is THE make-up artist of your dreams! Not only is she an extremely talented artist, but a wonderful human. From the trial to the wedding day, she was always listening and receptive. She brought my vision of a natural, glowy, bronzy&blushing bride to life. She made feel like an absolute princess. My family members and bridesmaids looked gorgeous as well with the help of her second artist. She is worth everything and more! I could not imagine our wedding day without her.

Jordan F

Dani is incredible! She has great communication with her clients, answered all my questions that I had, and made it such a smooth and clear process booking with her. Dani is extremely talented. She made me feel and look like a real life princess. My bridal party also looked amazing and we all can’t stop talking about how much we loved our makeup that day. Even at the end of the night, our makeup was still flawless. I highly recommend booking Dani, she will be a highlight to your day and was so amazing to work with.

Tamara M

Dani was the best makeup artist we could’ve asked for! She was patient at the trial and was willing to try a few different things to make my vision possible. Her calm energy and seriousness was absolutely vital the day of the wedding! Her work was beautiful and our photos couldn’t have been more perfect from the day!

Erika G

7/15/2022

Dani was referred to me by a friend for my wedding and she was amazing. She’s really down to earth which is nice on your wedding day. My make up turned out just how I wanted and it looked perfect. The bridesmaids looked amazing too!! She was really accommodating when we had an issue as well. I look forward to having another reason to have my make up done.

Alexis P

7/11/2022

Dani was an absolute dream to have on our wedding day! From first booking with her, to the make up trial, and then to the day of, she was communicative and professional. On top of that though, her presence makes you feel at ease and like you’re just hanging out with another friend on one of the most important days of your life. She is also so talented and made me feel beautiful, 10 out of 10 recommend!

Laura F

Don’t go anywhere else for bridal makeup. Dani’s welcoming personality and talent with all skin types really showed in all of our gorgeous photos. There’s a reason she’s rated so highly as a top makeup artist in Delaware. Not only is she a master of her craft, she offers advice and adds in extra special touches, going above and beyond for bridesmaids & the bride (me!). I now use all the products she recommended for my dry skin and now I can’t stray from her recs! I appear glowy and have more confidence in my daily look thanks to her. My fair skin, freckles, and blue eyes don’t lend itself to a traditional Smokey eye and she created the best bridal makeup I could’ve ever thought of or have seen before with golds and warm tones- I got SO many compliments that day. Thank you so much Dani!

Daria C

7/10/2022

Dani is an incredible make up artist! She is so talented and professional. I love that her style is natural glam but is all about adding a little more drama to the eyes or lip! My wedding day was HOT and HUMID and my makeup was perfect from afternoon photos to then end of the night! I was so impressed how efficient she was the day of the wedding and she's just so fun to work with. My bridesmaids, MIL and mom could not stop talking about how much they loveddd their makeup. I'm so so happy I got to work with her!

Dani is amazing!!! From begging to end a great experience, I had a trial and I loved what she did so I had her do my makeup for my bridal shower and the wedding, loved it both times. She assessed my skin and came up with the best plan. She did all the makeup for my bridesmaids, my mom and myself for the wedding, and made all of us feel beautiful. She showed up early and started right on time and had all of us done by the time we needed to be ready. Her attention to detail is impecable, she even had a little baggy for me to take to the wedding so I could touch up, and went out of her way to find the perfect lipstick for me. She’s so sweet, super talented and so profesional, simply the BEST!!!!

Kristen O

11/08/2021

Dani is absolutely amazing!! My makeup looked so “natural” and flawless, and it stayed on all day and night! Dani and her assistant were great to work with and my 11 bridesmaids looked stunning! If you want a makeup artist that knows what she’s doing, makes you look naturally beautiful without having makeup caked on your face, I would definitely recommend Dani! Thank you Dani!!

Sara S

10/10/2021

Dani is simply amazing!! She actually did my engagement session make up as well as the wedding day and I would recommend her to anyone! I asked her for a natural look and she did just that! Love her work and all my bridesmaids looked so beautiful! She also did a few of my close family members on the big day and they were stunning! She was so sweet through everything and just made the day so great. Even included a little bag of goodies for me after it was all done that included the essentials. If you need someone for your big day, definitely choose Dani! :)

Dani was amazing from start to finish. I first contacted her in 2019 when I knew my wedding wasn't scheduled until 2021. She was easy to talk to and we connected immediately. She was amazing for my bridal makeup trial, very easy to schedule with and followed-up a few days later to see how I liked my makeup. Leading up to the wedding I had to change the time of what time we needed to get ready and Dani was perfectly agreeable to the early start time. She is so much fun, has a lot of energy and is very professional. I loved my makeup, and had a lot of compliments. I will definitely recommend Dani to anyone who needs their makeup done! I hope to use her services again sometime!! Thanks Dani you are amazing!!

I had a large bridal party that needed hair and makeup done on a warm day in September. Dani and her assistant did an OUTSTANDING job- it looked beautiful and held up all day and night. I told her I wanted a more natural look, that I wanted to look like myself, and she absolutely nailed it. I would recommend her to anyone looking for bridal makeup!

Brea V

9/24/2021

Cannot say enough about Dani. She was absolutely amazing! So easy to work with, easy to talk to, great personality, and did a beautiful job. She did makeup for 11 people and every single person raved about their makeup. As the bride, I really couldn't ask for anything else. She was so great at communicating and made me feel so special/beautiful. After the trial, she messaged me the next day to see how the make up lasted and if there was anything I wanted to adjust. You can just tell how much she cares. BOOK HER!! You will not regret it.
