I am so beyond thankful for finding Deven for my wedding!! First of all, Deven is incredibly sweet and easy to talk to. Her communication throughout the wedding process made it ...
so easy and really put me at ease knowing I was in good hands. Her work speaks for itself, but it truly is perfect. I've never felt more confident and beautiful than when she did my wedding preview makeup and my makeup on my wedding day. My bridesmaids were thrilled with their makeup. Deven's attention to detail is amazing and she really knows how to make everyone look their best. Also, the makeup LASTS. I couldn't bring myself to take it off at the end of the night and it still looked flawless the next day. I can't recommend Deven enough and I can't wait to find any reason to use her again!!
DEVEN IS ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!! I had Deven as my make-up artist for my wedding in Maine on 7/15/23. She is such a sweet soul and did an amazing job on me and my bridesmaids. I wa...
s not able to do a make-up trial with her since I live in Florida and could not make the trip up. I decided to let her do what she saw fit, as she is the expert and artist and she knocked it out of the park!! I asked her to glam me up with a look she felt was appropriate and she did an AMAZING job! She is so professional and sweet, you will not regret hiring her as your make-up artist! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Deven was the makeup artist at my cousin’s wedding. I ugly cried, sweated like I ran a marathon, and wore sunglasses that did not leave makeup-less marks on my nose and the rest of...
my makeup did not budge. That shit was magical! If i could kidnap Deven and lock her in my house to do my makeup every day I would. But I guess I will just have to pray she is available for my next event… if not then forget what you read about kidnapping.
I can not say enough good about Deven and Zaina. I looked and felt like a princess, as did my entire wedding party. Their attention to detail was incredible. I felt so taken care o...
f and listened to. My make up was done by noon, ceremony was at 5 and at 5:15 we got caught in the rain. I didn’t go to bed until 1am and the entire day I did not need a single touch up. NO TOUCH UPS. It was like magic. My husband loved my dress but said my make up highlighted all of my best features and even he could be appreciate the detail. I am so so so happy I found Deven and I hope this review can convince you to book her as well. You won’t regret it, I’ll be booking her for every other big event I have!
Deven was an absolute Godsend. After an unfortunate makeup trial with another mua I was left frantic looking for somebody who could accomplish the look I was looking for. My weddin...
g planner Sabrina (Defined Luxe Events) was able to get me in with Deven & she absolutly aced my trial. I knew without a doubt that I wanted her to do my makeup for my big day.
All of my bridal party absolutely loved their makeup! She was such a supportive and instrumental person in my wedding. Forever grateful for her and her AMAZING CREW!! 10000/10 would recommend.
As a bride, one of the most important parts of preparing for the big day is finding the perfect glam squad. Deven Paige is the one!! Deven is so incredibly talented. She listened...
to my vision and exceeded all of my expectations. Every single thing she did was prefect-- the skin prep, the makeup products she chose, the makeup itself, her professionalism, her kindness, etc. My makeup stayed absolutely perfectly for 15 hours- from the morning of the wedding through two after parties. Don't wait, BOOK HER!

After securing our wedding date, Deven was the first vendor I hired. After viewing Deven’s work, I knew I needed her to help capture my vision for my bridal makeup. Deven’s creati...
ve eye was able to make me vision a reality. Through Deven’s flexibility & thoughtfulness she was able to align my makeup trial for the day of my bridal shower. On the day of my wedding, Deven came with a calming presence and excelled in demonstrating professionalism and interpersonal skills all the while working under pressure due to time constraints & tending to my very large bridal party. I cannot thank Deven enough and would hire her again in a heartbeat!

en to you, especially if you’re not super comfortable around makeup like myself. She made me and my girls feel glamorous. Deven is truly an expert at her craft and I would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a skilled professional who listens and considers all the things you want for your makeup.
Deven was amazing!! I was so nervous when it came time to pick a makeup artist and that they wouldn’t be able to make my vision come to life. After my trial with deven I knew she w...

Where do I begin! I have known Deven personally for some time now. She is an amazing individual inside and out. Anyone is lucky to have her in their life! Her talent with makeup is...
absolutely unbelievable it’s hard to even describe in words. I have never had my makeup done before but trusted her 100000% because of how amazing of a job she does on other clients. When I saw the final product I could almost cry how amazing it was! Everyone described it as me but beautifully enhanced! She totally nailed the perfect look for my seaside wedding. I wouldn’t recommend anyone better. Deven is an all star and the definition of a natural in this industry! Hoping to get my makeup done again soon ❤️
Deven. Is. Amazing. She did my makeup at my best friend’s wedding in July and I felt absolutely stunning!! I knew right then that I would love to have her do my makeup on my weddin...
g day. Fast forward to 2/22/22, the best day ever. Myself, along with the bridal party, looked and felt so beautiful! Her attention to detail and consideration of what everyone wanted was extra special. Before she left, she touched us up and also gave the Bride a little bag with the lip color she used and some goodies for the day. I would recommend Deven to everyone I know (and already have) !!! I hope I get to use Deven again in the future :)
I had the pleasure of working with Deven for my cousins wedding last summer, she did my makeup as a bridesmaid and it was the first time I had had my makeup professionally done. Sh...
e is insanely talented not only at makeup but a true professional at making you feel comfortable and fully taken care of. She went above and beyond to make myself and my family feel like we looked and felt our absolute best! She really is incredible at what she does goes above and beyond and I am so grateful to have had her make me feel so beautiful on my wedding day. ❤️
Simply put, Deven is amazing! She made myself and my bridal party feel so comfortable while we were getting ready. It felt like we were joined by a fellow girlfriend. She perfectly...
captured the makeup look I was going for and looking at some sneak peak photos I know I made the right choice with going with Deven. She truly was pivotal in helping me feel beautiful on the big day. Would highly recommend Deven over and over again. And I am sure I will turn to her for other future events!
Deven was truly the greatest! I had never had my makeup done prior to her doing it for my shower and wedding, and she really made it a wonderful experience. I showed her some ideas...
for what I was thinking and she did it better than I could have imagined! Having had my makeup done by someone else as a part of another wedding, I can truly say Deven is the best and will be my top recommendation to anyone!
Deven was amazing! My original makeup artist was not available for our postponed wedding date thanks to covid so thankfully, Deven was available and so reasonably priced! She fit m...
e in for a trial immediately and I was impressed right away. Even one of my bridesmaids who was sure she was going to just do her own makeup, had Deven do her makeup for the wedding because she loved how mine came out. Deven is so friendly and made me and all my girls feel so comfortable. She listened to our likes and dislikes, made sure to ask us after it was done if we wanted to change anything, did touch ups before we left for pictures, and even gave a cute little bag for on the go touch ups. She was also very clean with her products which was important to us during covid. I will highly recommend Deven to all my friends!!
Deven is such a great person to work with! Amazing makeup for all of my bridesmaids, the mothers of bride/groom & myself! Everyone really enjoyed their looks & the makeup lasted ...
through rain, sweet & tears. I would highly recommend for anyone looking for a friendly & talented MUA.
Deven is absolutely amazing. She is so laid back, fun, easy to talk to, and beyond talented. My bridesmaids, mother, and I all looked and felt incredibly beautiful on the day of my...
wedding. Her passion for makeup is very evident, and she went above and beyond to ensure everyone was satisfied with their final looks. She also provided a cute little bag with touch-up lip color, concealer, tic tacs, etc.—which was just an added bonus! I would highly recommend Deven to anyone looking for a professional makeup artist.
Deven and her team were the absolute best, one of the highlights of my wedding day! Deven herself is professional, personable, thoughtful and a totally calming spirit during what c...
an be a stressful day! Most importantly, she is an incredibly talented make up artist. I am generally not a big make up person, and wanted something more natural for my wedding day. Deven worked her magic and I literally felt like the most glam version of myself. I was so happy with the outcome of her work because everything felt like me, just an elevated version of me! Deven is very detail oriented- she provides a day of timeline for you, keeps the planning process on track and gave me a little touch up kit for the wedding day which was so sweet!
I had a large party and Deven coordinated times, details and even made arrangements for additional artists (thank you Zaina and Nicole!) to assist with make up and hair. All of the women in my party loved their make up and hair and felt so beautiful. The whole crew also loved the way Deven and her team just naturally fit right in- we laughed, talked and had so much fun! I truly believe that my morning would not have been as smooth or comfortable for everyone if we didn’t have Deven and her team. A true professional with a spirit that feels like you have been friends for years. Thank you so much Deven!
Deven is a literal makeup goddess. She took her time not only with me, the bride, but with each of the bridesmaids. Each and every single person looked absolutely stunning. The mak...
e up was no natural looking yet very glam. She is very gentle and detail oriented.
Deven is down to earth and easy to talk to. When it was time to actually start getting ready I had the “OMG this is happening moment”, Deven was reminding how exciting the moment was and kept me calm. When I looked in the mirror after she was done I was stunned, I did look like myself, but my best self! I had never felt so beautiful in my life. She also gave me a cute bag with touch up supplies and breath mints, adorable!
I was lucky enough to have Deven as the makeup artist for my wedding. She was fun, courteous, and professional from the makeup trial leading up to the big day. She worked with me t...
o tweak my look, gave honest feedback, and truly made me look and feel like a beautiful bride. She also did the makeup for my bridal party and mother... words can't describe how absolutely gorgeous everyone looked! If you're looking for a professional artist who really knows her stuff and also can fit right in with the girls, I can't recommend Deven enough!
Deven is absolutely the best!! My makeup anx my bridesmaids’ make up was flawless the day of my wedding. It was so hot and humid on my wedding day but our makeup stayed on and neve...
r ran or smudged even while dancing in the heat. Deven was on time and so sweet. I HIGHLY recommend Deven!
Deven was the best! Extremely calm energy which is very important the day of your wedding. she made me and all my bridesmaids look and feel beautiful. could not recommend her more!
Deven was absolutely fantastic to work with start to finish. She did all of the makeup for only wedding and we all looked perfect all day long, even on a misty, windy Newport day.
Deven was fantastic! My trial went so smooth even thought I wasnt 100% sure what I wanted but Deven totally nailed it!
Day of she had an assistant, Norma , who was also amazing. ...
Everyone looked so glamorous but not overdone! Theu dup were super efficient and kept to the time schedule. They even had time to squeeze in a last minute person for makeup. Theu were also super sweet to my niece who absolutely adored them and getting her makeup done.
Overall super happy with how everything came out and would definitely book her again for my much larger reception next year!
Thanks Deven!
Deven and her team were absolutely phenomenal!! Because of COVID and the back and forth changing of plans, I wasn't able to make time to do a trial with Deven. The first time she d...
id my makeup was on my wedding day, and I knew I was in good hands! She did a PERFECT job! She really listened to what I wanted and honestly made me look even better than I imagined!! I have never felt more beautiful! She also did a phenomenal job with each bridesmaid, accenting their beauty, while still listening to what type of makeup they wanted! All my girls loved her (and Norma, the second artist she brought with her). Not only was she very professional, but Deven was also super responsive and so understanding and flexible with all the changes that had to be made throughout the planning process! I highly recommend Deven, and will hopefully be able to book her to do my makeup for events in the future!!
I highly, highly recommend Deven as a vendor. She is so sweet and amazing at what she does. She takes her time and makes sure everything is perfect. Deven did my makeup for my enga...
gement shoot and wedding. Both occasions, i received so many compliments!! I can’t tell you how many people said I looked gorgeous, beautiful or stunning. Deven makes you feel confident and beautiful while still managing to keep it natural and not so heavy-like with makeup. For both occasions, I didn’t even need a touch up!! It lasted through sweat (thank you summer heat) and even tears! I am so thankful that I was able to have Deven on my special day. If you are in need for a makeup artist, look no further!! Deven is your girl, hands down.
I loved Deven! She made me feel so comfortable and understood exactly the look I was going for. I was worried about my acne scarring and feeling self conscious on my wedding day. D...
even had me glowing and the makeup lasted all night (even through the august heat). Deven was professional and skilled, I highly recommend her for all of your makeup needs.
Deven was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was easy to communicate with and did such an amazing job. The entire bridal party looked stunning. I cannot say enough good things...
about Deven!
You know, I never write reviews.. but for Deven, I can’t NOT give a review. This girl (along with her partner and hair stylist Kara) was OUTSTANDING. I am someone who has suffered...
badly with my self esteem and self reflection due to having less than perfect skin for my entire teen/adult hood. I am almost 28 years old and I’ve never even left my house without some type of concealer on my face because I’m just so insecure. But with Deven, I showed up with a clean makeup free face, and even though my heart was pounding and my mind was racing, she kept telling me I had a beautiful face. For some reason, even though she was a complete stranger at the time, she had this ability to make me feel free in my own skin for the very first time. Her work was worth every penny and her kind words will stay with me permanently. I appreciate this girl so much and anyone would be lucky to have her as their makeup artist.
I absolutely suck at staying on task so my review is late! I used Deven for my August 31,2019 wedding! She was absolutely amazing. From my make up trial to the day of she was dedic...
ated to making me look exactly how I wanted. She was determined to make me happy. Deven also did my brides maids and they also look all so beautiful as well. She is extremely passionate about what she does. She has a warm smile and a comforting presence that leaves you feeling like your in the best hands possible. My make up was done around 1:00 and it lasted until the next day. I had so many compliments. I can’t say enough great things about her, I will use her for any future events that require my make up to be done.
Deven is so talented and professional and puts you at ease immediately. She did the makeup for 5 of us on the day of my wedding. She listened to what each individual wanted and del...
ivered! I have had my makeup professionally done several times before and was never completely satisfied with the finished product but Deven changed that! Deven made sure that she kept to our timeline and we were even finished ahead of schedule! I would recommend Deven with no hesitation!
I can't say enough about Deven and her makeup artistry business. Deven did my makeup for my wedding this past weekend. Her talent speaks for itself. She was able to cultivate/creat...
e both natural and full glam looks. She listened to the needs of my bridal party and adjusted looks to each person's face/style. She was on time, reliable, respectable and trustworthy. She made my day so easy. I didn't have to stress at all. She is a true professional and her attention to detail is impeccable. I have two other bridesmaids that were in my bridal party who plan to book with her for their weddings next year. The makeup lasted all night into brunch the next morning! Also - her prices are extremely reasonable compared to other local bridal businesses. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of services!
Deven recently did makeup for myself and 2 bridesmaids at my wedding in October. She listened to what each of us wanted for our makeup looks that day and made sure we were all plea...
sed and looked flawless. One of my bridesmaids loved her so much she’s thinking of booking Deven for her own wedding. Very professional, timely , and responsive to feed back, I would definitely book with Deven again .
Deven is absolutely amazing. I am so glad I found her. I was able to schedule a trial, but decided the day of I wanted to go with a slightly different look. Deven totally made t...
hat happen. She is a makeup wizard. She is so professional and talented. My makeup stayed on all night. You will not regret booking her!!!
Deven and her team were absolutely incredible to work with for my wedding! Going back to our very first encounter, I knew Deven was who I would be using for my wedding. She was pro...
fessional, fun, energetic, and everything I could’ve asked for on my wedding day. She was able to look at each of my bridesmaids and everyone in my wedding party, and make them look beyond beautiful and natural - We were ALL getting compliments the entire night! To be able to look at 10 people starting at 10am, style their hair and do their make up, and keep every one of us looking just as perfect as we did from the start by the time the wedding started at 6, is more than talent in my opinion! My wedding day couldn’t have been any more perfect, and it definitely would not have been complete with the help of Deven. Each of my bridesmaids, my mother, and mother in law were so happy by the work done by these lovely ladies, and we HIGHLY recommend them for any event! Thank you so so much!!
Booking Deven will without a doubt will be the best decision you make throughout the entire wedding process. Deven and her team were wonderful to work with on my wedding day! She...
listened carefully the day of the wedding, to not just me, but every person she did for the day. She was early and made everyone look amazing, not just for that moment but for the entire night. She also allowed a bridesmaid use her own makeup due to severe allergies. Deven even sent all the bridal party with a care package that included a lip color touch up , mints, etc. I would recommend Deven for anyone's makeup for any occasion - if only she could pop out of my makeup bag everyday!!!
Deven is really a master of her craft. She is attentive and takes direction well, but she also reads her clients’ body language to better gage how they are feeling about the resul...
ts. Having Deven as my make up artist for my wedding day is a decision I would make over and over again. She did my trail on the day of my bridal shower and made me feel so beautiful, but more importantly comfortable. My bridal make up was perfection as well. She made me feel naturally beautiful and radiant. The makeup complimented my features, everything was perfectly blended, the palate she chose made my eyes pop. Deven is meticulous! She is professional, approachable, AFFORDABLE, and all around amazing to work with. She immediately makes you feel at ease with her friendly smile and positive energy. I would recommend her, without reservation, to any bride, woman, potential client, anyone. She does amazing work. She’s a true artist.
Deven is amazing! She made myself, the moms and my bridesmaids look and feel beautiful. She is so fun to work with and truly nails the natural glam. Highly recommend!!!
I highly reccomend MUA Deven . She is very knowledgeable in her work and professional. Makes you feel comfortable and is a delight to work with. I was fortunate to book her for bot...
h my bridal shower and for my big day.
For my wedding, Deven did mine, 6 bridesmaids and the 2 MOB , each girl with different requests and Deven was able to work her magic to make us look flawless in a timely manner. She's patient, efficient and not to mention she's such a sweetheart. I will definitely be booking her for future events!
I got married back in May and Deven was amazing. Her talent speaks for itself. She was extremely proffesional with myself and my bridesmaids. She accomated our beauty needs and was...
extremely patient with us. There was a mix of us wanting natural looks and others who wanted full on glam. She came prepared for it all and she is so versatile. I couldn't have asked for better service and I highly HIGHLY recommend her to any one in need of a makeup artist. She is so lovely. Thank you for making me feel so beautiful Deven.
Cannot say enough good things about Deven. She was very professional and understanding about how I wanted my makeup to look. The girls absolutely loved their makeup as well. And my...
eyebrows never looked as good as the way Deven did them. She is great!
