Nicole Marie Makeup Artistry

ad multiple guests approach me and tell me we looked like models! I would highly recommend Nicole for makeup for any event!

atologist and allergist did not work, I immediately thought of Nicole. She was able to recommend a lotion and natural oils that helped soothe the burn and repair my skin. She also taught me a skin care routine, how to apply makeup on top of the oils, and recommended makeup that works well with extremely dry skin. I have experienced several similar allergic reactions since, but the oils and lotion always help to expedite my recovery. You know you're in good hands when your makeup artist's advice trumps your dermatologist's!

so suggested some new great products I wouldn't have picked out. The lesson was super helpful as well. I learned how to apply concealer, foundation and an undereye concealer with a natural finish that doesn't feel over done but also looks flawless. She helped me develop a daily routine that doesn't take too long but makes me look incredibly healthy and pretty. I highly recommend doing this with her, especially if you have trouble picking out products or knowing how to effectively apply them. Thanks Nicole!

stry world wide. My wedding makeup was absolutely flawless and she created the exact look I wanted. Nicole also has a passion for photography so she has a good eye for creating a makeup look that will compliment your professional wedding photos. Her professional and caring demeanor and attention to detail are only a few of the outstanding qualities that make her so special. I would highly recommend Nicole for any event. Thank you Nicole!

ral looking, which was exactly what we wanted. Nicole understood the looks we were going for and executed them flawlessly. She was so fun to work with and is a true professional.

e was prompt, kind, courteous, listened and was clearly skilled! My sister being younger than myself, looked amazing! Nicole was thoughtful in her work, used the perfect colors to make my sisters features and skin glow. She kept the timing perfect for this special event and it was never rushed- a hard balance for sure! There was easy and joyful talking and laughing which put us all at ease. When it was my turn for makeup I was surprised that not only a younger woman could be so beautiful, but so could I. With artistic talent, Nicole preformed the same magic on me as well. I have never seen myself look so pretty. I learned Nicole is an artist with skills in photography, drawing and modeling. She has been able to take her specialties and use all of the important aspects of color and design to make each person look their absolute best. In the end we felt as if we were a prized, loved piece of art she skilfully crafted by hand. If all this was not enough, Nicole's easy, pleasant,relaxed and fun personality along with her strong interpersonal skills in listening made us truly feel special; like we were old friends or family. In the many years of contracting people for different jobs, I have learned that I could find talented people, OR people that were prompt OR courteous. But I know it is rare to find all the things one wants in one person. Nicole fits that bill! She is all one could ever ask for in a makeup artist- skill, talent,responsibility and personality! It just doesn't get better than that! Thank you, Nicole for sharing in my sister's special day! Thank you for being much more than a makeup artist! We will call on you again for all of our special engagements! I am pleased to let the world know all about you! You are a treasure and I know that others will feel the same about you once they have worked with you!

nd caring. I am so grateful for her services- she is the most talented makeup artist that I have had the pleasure to meet!

with her because she was so great to be around! The trial was very detailed, and Nicole really got to know me, my fiancé, our wedding, etc. I'm definitely the type of person who doesn't wear much makeup, but Nicole took the time to explain everything and made me feel comfortable to try looks that were outside of my day-to-day style. I loved that she would say how this is the time to try anything I wanted and for her to get to know what I liked - there was no pressure and I knew I was in good hands. The day of the wedding, Nicole really made the getting ready experience fun - my mother has been asking me if we can find an excuse to hire Nicole again! Not only was everyone's makeup incredible, but Nicole is just the type of person you enjoy being around (my friends who had their makeup done said how much they regretted not having her do makeup for their own weddings). While it may be possible to find other skilled people, Nicole is the whole package, and you don't come across that too often. I cannot recommend Nicole highly enough!

mmend her 100%!

ut together a look that’s beautiful in person and on camera. I had a few experiences with make-up artists where it was one or the other, I felt that my make-up looked good after a professional photographer edited the photos, but in person the make-up was too much. That was NOT the case with Nicole; Nicole made me feel beautiful in pictures and in person! That’s exactly how I wanted to feel as a bride. Nicole took the time to really listen to what I wanted and offered her professional opinion when I wasn’t sure. She really wanted to make sure that she created the look that I wanted. Also, none of the girl’s had to retouch their makeup throughout the entire day. I highly recommend Nicole!! I can't say anything negative about her work or my experience with her. She is simply amazing! I know it can be overwhelming trying to find a good makeup artist, but trust me, you are in great hands with Nicole!

ighly recommend her!!

on. She is super calm, reliable and just a pleasure to have around when you're getting ready for your big day. Thank you Nicole!

eup stayed flawless throughout the night, even after some serious dancing!

lped me pick a look that we both thought would be perfect. Her background in art truly adds to her depth as a makeup artist and her knowledge bank seems unending. I can't imagine ever working with anyone else. 10/10 Nicole rocks!!!!!!

products that would work best for my skin and would achieve the look I wanted. You couldn't ask for someone with more well-rounded and diverse product knowledge! We then returned to my home and she walked me through the application process step-by-step (pictures and notes included!), so that I would feel comfortable recreating it all on my own. She was so patient and a great teacher. I can honestly say I loved the experience...and the result! I would absolutely recommend the personal shopping and lesson.

scheduling a trial and helping me decide exactly what "look" I wanted. Her product knowledge and application skills are a combination for guaranteed success, not to mention she is super sweet and fun. I could not have been happier!

uture.

time I'm with her. Whether it be a new make up technique, a new product or a new way to layer products, her innovative ideas are what make her a unique Artist. Not only is she good at what she does, she's so charming and lovely with her clients. She has taught me to listen closely to the clients needs and make sure they are satisfied and feeling confident. I am so proud to say that Nicole is not only a great person to be around but a wonderful mentor and friend. You would be lucky to hire her for any event!!!!

e up felt light on my skin and lasted for hours on end. Any special occasions going forward Nicole will be apart of my plan. She made me feel extremely confident and at ease with letting her take over with my look. If only I could have her do my make up every morning. Make up artistry is truly her passion and it's something that you can see off of the work that she creates. The work that she creates is hard to find with other make up artists. Nicole is has an outstanding professional background in the field, she definitely knows what she's doing and loves doing it! Overall, Nicole is someone you can rely on for a special occasion to bring out the best in you!

blew me away, I knew she was good from her pictures and blog posts but to experience it first-hand was incredible. This girl has major talent! But even the makeup trial couldn't compare to the spectacular job Nicole did on my wedding day. All my bridesmaids/sisters/mother looked absolutely gorgeous, and I can honestly say it was the prettiest I've ever felt in my life. One of the best decisions I ever made was booking Nicole for my wedding makeup. She is warm, personable, professional, and extremely talented. Book Nicole and you will not be disappointed!

r, as the wedding was in February, and her forte deserves great recognition! Nicole is such a kind and pleasant person to begin with, she made me feel so comfortable in the chair behind her brushes, not only because she is genuinely easy to talk to but because her happiness is more than apparent - I could feel the passion infused in her work. Work, isn't even the correct word for it, clearly she thoroughly enjoys expressing her creativity through makeup and it certainly showed that day! My makeup stayed on well beyond the night, after the wedding, and remained in tact (even the eyelashes!). She used a warm, romantic colored palette that worked well with each skin tone, and beautifully complimented the plum dresses we all wore. I am certain she has the eye to do the same for any color theme anyone uses. The bride, bridesmaids, and mother of the bride all had stunning makeup done by Nicole and I highly recommend her to any person searching for a makeup artist, for any occasion.

moment she arrived. It was an absolute pleasure having her in the room for part of our getting ready process. During my bridal trial, Nicole asked a lot of questions and got a great understanding of what I was looking for. She even mentioned being excited to try out her skills with my ideas because I wanted something a bit different with my makeup, as I asked for a bit more drama and darkness around the eyes and lips. She delivered on every level while still making sure that I looked classy and relatively soft for my big day, even with a smoky eye and red lips! Nicole provided the makeup not only for myself (The Bride!) but also four female members of the bridal party and our flower girl; every single one of us felt transformed and wonderful for the big day. It would be impossible for me to put into words how happy I was with what Nicole did for me and my bridal party, but I hope this communicates even half of how happy we were with the whole experience! Thank you so much, Nicole!!

ghly recommend her for any event!

y cousin's wedding and because of my Pakistani culture the weddings are about 3 days! I contacted Nicole to do me and my mom's makeup for every single day. It was 50$ each day for each of us, and it looked amazing! She brought all her makeup supplies and her own little makeup station to my house and did exactly as we asked. Pakistani weddings are full of very vibrant colors so I love bold looks. I didn't even have any ideas on what I wanted, I just let her do what she knew looked good, and oh my god I looked GREAT! My mom wanted a more softer look, and Nicole did a fantastic job with her as well! All three days so many people complimented our makeup. She didn't even have a set time, she just took just as long as we needed! Not to mention, since I'm a procrastinator, I called her about 4 days before the first day I needed her and thankfully she was available! I was excited to see her again, I finally found someone that I KNOW will give me an amazing makeover. Her artistic abilities are worth every penny, honestly. I am so happy that I found her, especially since I feel 100% comfortable around her. Her personality is very warm and welcoming. She is the kindest, most professional, and down to earth makeup artist I have ever met. Before Nicole I was looking everywhere for someone that could do my makeup, but I was usually just disappointed or unimpressed. Now that I've found Nicole, I finally have someone I can rely on!

ng was rushed. Every girl, including myself, was more than happy with the job Nicole and Jenny did. I would highly recommend using Nicole for your wedding - you will not be disappointed!!!

anted for the wedding and after she'd completed the trial we took pictures. It made me feel that I knew, without worry or doubt, what I'd get on the day. In fact, on the day, her work exceeded my expectations. Not only did she arrive early to set up, but her calm demeanor and professionalism put all the girls in my wedding party at ease. That's not to mention how incredibly stunning I felt all my girls looked. On that day we all felt gorgeous. Not only was her work stunning, but she added happiness and cheer to the day. Her kindness went above and beyond, and her joy for my husband and I made me feel like I was getting my make-up done by an old friend.

adding her signature look. My makeup looked glamorous and held that look throughout the night. I felt and looked like I was 20 again! I was extremely satisfied with her work.

mother’s wedding day. She offered them insight into how she’d go about actualizing the finished design. Not only did she bring out the natural perfection and subtle hidden features of my mother and her bridesmaids faces, she paid careful attention to the desires of her clients and worked with them to create the exact look they were looking for. She was steady-handed, careful, and yet worked in an efficient manner, bringing the youth and charm back out of my mother on her most speculated and special of days.

exactly the look I wanted. My mom was also very happy with her look! The day of, Nicole was very calm, quick, and relaxed. She remembered everything we talked about during the trial. My makeup lasted all evening; I only needed to touch up my lipstick after dinner. I got so many complements on my makeup! I felt comfortable in it. Nicole really does a great job! You will definitely get personalized attention at a great value.
