Nadiya Mashkina Enchanting Makeup Artist

made me feel so beautiful on my special day. My makeup also lasted the entire night even through all of the sweat and tears! Nadiya also spends her time making sure everything is perfect and really takes the time to get to know you. She is very sweet and fun and definitely made me laugh even through all of the nerves the morning of wedding day. I would definitely recommend Nadiya if you want to look absolutely beautiful on your special day :)

absolutely gorgeous. She completed makeup for six people between 7:30 a.m. and noon without anyone feeling rushed, and every look was flawless. My sisters both said this was their favorite wedding makeup they’ve ever had, even though they’ve both had their makeup professionally done for multiple weddings, including their own. I was especially impressed by how well my makeup lasted. It stayed flawless through happy tears, hours of photos, dancing, and celebrating all the way until the end of the night. Nadiya is incredibly talented and made the entire morning feel fun, calm, and stress free. I couldn’t have asked for a better makeup artist for my wedding day, and I would recommend her to anyone without hesitation!

you feel comfortable, learns about what will work with your skin type and style, explains things along the way, and brings the fun! The communication and planning was so great during the booking and planning process. And on the big day she made be feel so beautiful and confident. She is an absolute joy to work with and the biggest hype girl in all of the best ways -- could not recommend her more!

such an eye for enhancing natural beauty while still creating a glamorous, polished look. My makeup photographed beautifully, lasted all day and evening, and still felt comfortable to wear. Nadiya listened carefully to my preferences and made me feel completely at ease throughout the process. She also worked wonderfully with my bridal party, making everyone feel beautiful and confident. Not only is she an amazing makeup artist, but she is also kind, professional, and a joy to spend time with on such an important day. I am so grateful she was part of my wedding day and would recommend her to any bride looking for exceptional makeup artistry. Cassandra Doyle

e sitting in her chair - it was one of my favorite moments of the morning :) book Nadiya!!

ly super understanding but also did an amazing job making me feel so beautiful on my day! She was a total hype woman and certainly knows her craft! I cannot begin to express how many compliments I received and how confident I felt!!

cerns. The makeup turned out BEAUTIFULLY on everybody and although I really liked my trial, she listened and had all the right suggestions to make minor tweaks and assure my wedding day makeup was truly perfect. She is also just an incredibly pleasant person to be around and work with. I would highly recommend using Nadiya for any of your events!

wife. Luckily, she was willing to work something out for us! She squeezed us in for a late night makeup trial and was very collaborative every step of the way. My wife and I have different aesthetics, but we both wanted a bold makeup look. I wanted grungy and dark, and she wanted full glam. Nadiya took her time with each phase of the application and made very intentional decisions while checking in if it made sense for the vision and our skin type. We were thrilled with the trial but did have a few notes, which Nadiya sought out the next day by specifically asking for feedback so she could make any adjustments for the wedding day. Both before the trial and our wedding day, Nadiya sent instructions to help us prepare our skin to be the best canvas possible for our makeup, which was very helpful. She came into our chaotic wedding suite, and made both of our faces complete works of art! Something my wife greatly appreciated since our family and close friends started filtering into our suite, is that Nadiya helped her navigate the barrage of people who kept running up to her and wanting to engage while she was trying to get ready. She would very professionally let them know the bride could say a quick hi, but that she needed to focus. That was very comforting to my wife, because she didn’t have to be the one to tell our loved ones that she really couldn’t get in a whole conversation at that moment. People commented on our makeup all night! Not only on the skillful application, but how much each makeup look was distinctly “US.” If you want to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself, let Nadiya know what your vision is and she will get you there. Thank you Nadiya!

at I wanted, asked thoughtful questions, and created a makeup plan that felt perfectly tailored to me. I never once felt pushed into a look that wasn’t “me" instead, she enhanced my features in the most beautiful, natural, and confident way. Nadiya also went above and beyond by giving me incredibly helpful, clear instructions on how to prep my skin for my wedding day specifically for makeup. That guidance made such a difference and helped everything look flawless and long-lasting. Beyond her obvious talent, what really sets Nadiya apart is *her presence*. She has the sweetest, most encouraging way of talking to you while she works, gently hyping you up, pointing out your best features, and making you feel so cared for. Sitting in her chair felt calming, joyful, and confidence-boosting. You truly cannot help but feel beautiful when she’s doing your makeup. I felt absolutely stunning on my wedding day, and that is 100% thanks to Nadiya. If you’re looking for someone who is incredibly skilled, attentive, professional, and genuinely uplifting, look no further. I would recommend Nadiya Mashkina Makeup to anyone without hesitation! 💖 Photo Credit: RoostMKE Photography

glam make up, just say the word! I went with a completely different style from my trial and she executed my vision perfectly on the wedding day. On top of her amazing service, my makeup lasted from 12pm-1am and the look was still perfectly intact, even after all the happy tears! I highly recommend Nadiya as a wedding make up artist and a member of your hype squad during the morning-of :)

e and took her time ensuring that we prepped our skin with lotion a few days before the session. She listens to what you want and makes recommendations based on your preferences. I would hire her again and again. She is a true treasure—great at conversation, flexible, and friendly. Please don’t hesitate to hire Nadiya; she is worth every penny!

e to life!!! Her warmth, charm, not to mention her magic made my wedding vision day into a reality! I cannot stress enough how great Nadiya is!!! My mom and I are not makeup people but she made us feel comfortable and I didn’t even feel like I had makeup on! And it lasted all day, sweat proof, tear proof!!!!! Thank you Nadiya!!!

els of comfort and Nadiya ensured that her work was fitting for each of us. My mom was nervous to get her make up done because she typically does not get lashes or wear a lot of make up and she absolutely loved the work Nadiya did. My look was just what I had hoped for! I trusted her expertise and gave her a rough estimate of what my vision was and I looked flawless! My make up stayed perfect for two days before I decided to clean up and take off my lashes:) She is the absolute sweetest! thank you Nadiya!!!

ut she also listened to all of my feedback from my trial and executed FLAWLESSLY on wedding day! I felt like an enhanced version of myself in the best way possible. Thank you, Nadiya, for everything!!!

al I have ever met. She talked me through the entire makeup process, things I liked and did not like, what I was envisioning for my wedding day, and looked at photos I brought with that I found online and on her Instagram page and talked through those. Nadiya took a photo of me after my trial, and I also took one about 12 hours later to show her on the morning of my wedding how my makeup lasted. She looked at both photos, came prepared with her own critiques from the trial, and listened to the minor changes I wanted. I never wore false eye lashes before and I think Nadiya could feel my semi uncomfortableness with them at our trial because day of the wedding she came prepared with a different type of false eyelash that I loved. My makeup lasted ALL night, and I got so many compliments. All of my bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom's makeup looked phenomenal all night too. Having Nadiya there in the morning was so fun, and she just added a depth of fun and excitement to getting ready! I highly recommend using Nadiya for any of your makeup needs!!!

ters as well, I was impressed at how conscious she was of making sure our natural south asian skin tones shines through.

red that I wanted a soft, natural look for my November wedding, and she delivered beautifully during the trial. But on the actual wedding day? I was speechless. I’ve never felt so confident, comfortable, and truly beautiful in my own skin. I was so thrilled with her work that I went back again this month for our wedding reception — and I’ve already booked another appointment for later this year! Nadiya is truly gifted at what she does. Her kind spirit and genuine excitement add so much to the experience. She listens closely and creates a look that not only enhances your natural beauty, but makes you feel like the best version of yourself. You won’t just love the look — you’ll want to recreate it again and again!

professionally again, I will for sure use her.

ble artist! She made me feel so beautiful on my special day!! 10/10 recommend!

my wedding day. For anyone looking for a makeup artist for events of any kind, look no further. Nadiya is the sweetest human, so thoughtful and an incredible listener. She had me relaxed and laughing and feeling so confident in her chair. I rarely wear makeup - especially glam makeup - and she made me look like myself but in the most beautiful way. We even worked together again after the wedding already and I know that won't be our last time!

ted and I'm a brown skin african american. All of these factors made me feel nervous about having a makeup artist but Nadiya was so comforting and sweet that I forgot all about that. I expected awkward moments while she worked on me but it's simply impossible with her. She just has an amazing soul and it truly is a joy to be around her. Personality aside, she is darn good at what she does. She was quick, efficient, and meticulous! I was floored by how well she was about to blend everything together and match my skin tone perfectly. For example, I have laser hair removal burns on my neck which are pretty prominent, as well as hyperpigmentation and she erased all of that for a day! I looked amazing and felt like a princess <3 This was a shocker for me but one of the first things my fiance said to me after the ceremony was "wow, your makeup is amazing", crazy right! Seriously though, any worries you might have regarding an artist I'm sure can be solved with Nadiya, she really is amazing!

fferent style and wants. She made the whole experience wonderful ❤️✨️🙌

ality that was made for this profession. I’ve gotten my makeup done for several weddings & I’ve never seen someone who cares so much about each and every client (not just the bride, but my loved ones too) & is the ultimate hype woman. My makeup was literally PERFECTION & didn’t budge even through emotional & tearful moments. All of my ladies loved their makeup whether it was more natural or full glam. I am beyond thankful I found Nadiya & will never chose another make up artist for any event! She feels like my friend!

every interaction. I did a trial with her (so worth it!!) and wore the makeup for a whole day during my bridal shower, and it lasted the whole time. I decided that I wanted to do a couple tweaks for the big day, and she was so flexible and supportive. I wanted to do more of a neutral look with focus on the skin, and she helped me look healthy and radiant without the shine or greasy look – just what I wanted! Nadiya is a fantastic makeup artist and also a really genuine person who makes you feel comfortable and taken care of. If you hire Nadiya, you will not regret it for a second!! Thank you for everything! 😊

ding day. Everyone in the bridal party loved her! We are so thankful she was part of helping us get ready for the big day.

he sweating) and the girls all kept raving about what a great job Nadiya did. I would 100% recommend!

listened to their comfort levels and preferences for make up, designing the perfect and customized look for me and all my bridesmaids and mom! I would recommend her to anyone.

!

and her work is just perfection. What's more, Nadiya is incredibly professional and personable. She is fast to respond over email, proactive, and was on time and ready to go at my venue. I'm am so happy with my wedding make up, both in the initial application and that it didn’t budge all night! I will be recommending Nadiya to anyone and everyone who wants a wonderful experience and perfect make up!

stayed on all day and night flawlessly and my skin felt so soft and smooth. I got married outside in the beaming sun and my face stayed perfectly intact and my pictures were stunning. Thank you so much!! Having your make up perfect for your big day is soooo important, it really makes the day. I owe it all to Nadiya for helping me look perfect the whole day. Book her I promise you won't regret it. She is patient, professional and talented. She also was able to do my mom and sister's make up perfectly! Highly recommend!

makeup look and knows how to execute the look perfectly. I am someone who does not normally wear makeup and she knew exactly how to execute that look for me. I did not want a traditional foundation because I really like the look of my skin and freckles and she had a serum type solution that was the perfect amount of coverage for me! I have never felt more beautiful! Thank you Nadiya!!!

in for Lashes last minute! She really went above and beyond and she knows how to accentuate your features and make you feel absolutely stunning! The makeup stayed for the entirety of my wedding and into the next morning! The products you used were so lightweight and didn't budge at all, even with happy tears during the wedding. If I ever need makeup in the future, she will be my first go to. She is budget-friendly and there are absolutely no negative comments to say about her. Don't question whether or not you should go with her, she was absolutely phenomenal! Thank you so much Nadiya! You really did make my day special!

fantastic at highlighting a person’s natural features (even when doing a glam look like mine). Nadiya does a great job with any type of look a person chooses (from natural to full glam), any skin tone, and any skin conditions/ sensitivities. She also genuinely makes you feel good during every interaction. I’m pretty sure she even made my mom blush with compliments (and my mom 1- never wears makeup, 2- doesn’t always feel the best about her looks). Her prices are very reasonable and she is well organized and cleanly. If you're wondering if the makeup you're paying for will hold up: yes it does! Even through a long day of photos, brief periods of sweltering heat, ceremony, and reception my makeup was still pristine by the end of the night! All of the strategies I use today when doing my own makeup, I learned from Nadiya. If she is still available on your big day, BOOK HER!!!! I mean it when I say I would not trust anyone else with my makeup.

sbelief looking at how great my makeup still looked at the end of the night! Amazing work from an amazing person!

s so good with all my bridesmaids, I am so grateful I chose Nadiya for my wedding makeup 😊

would 100% hire Nadiya a million times again!!!

ng a makeup artist because I didn't know where to begin, but once I found Nadiya, I was hooked! I would highly recommend her for your wedding day :)
