Margareta is a great makeup artist! I was lucky enough to be her next door neighbor so I just went right next door to get my makeup done before a night out or a wedding. She does such an amazing job and knows just what you need to make you feel beautiful. I highly recommend her 10/10!

Meg made me feel and look amazing on a very special day.
She did a great job of listening to what I was looking for during the bridal makeup trial and come the day of the wedding, it was perfect! Her enthusiasm and warm personality put me right at ease. She makes you look beautiful without caking on pounds of makeup. She is truly an amazingly talented makeup artist. Highly recommended!

Meg is truly an artist when it comes to makeup. I have personally used her for over two decades for various events. When it came to my very own wedding day, there was no question in my mind who I was going to use to do my makeup. It was perfection! Not only did she make me look the most beautiful on that day, but my makeup lasted all day and all night without having to do any touch-ups. Even though it was a very hot and humid day, and all night of dancing, I was photo ready at all times. I received so many compliments stating what an amazing job she had done and that it stayed on perfectly into the wee hours of the night. I have recommended Meg to family and friends, and have seen the amazing work she has done on them as well. I personally continue to use Meg for events and photoshoots. She has a creative edge that switches up my look every time, and each time it turns out incredible and absolutely stunning. I have so many amazing photos thanks to her. I highly recommend Meg!
