About this vendor
2026 booked are closed- NOW BOOKING 2027.
As a seasoned freelance makeup artist, I have worked with all types and tones and was recently named one of the top makeup artists in Boston.
I've been passionate about beauty ever since I could remember. I grew up with extremely sensitive skin and, thanks to my mother who was religious about her morning and evening skin care routines, understood the importance of quality skin and makeup products. As a teenager, I dove into the world of beauty, admiring the glossy pages of Allure, Elle and Vogue, paying close attention to anything and everything that had to do with makeup and skincare.
During my undergraduate years in college, I was the go-to makeup artist for formals and events. Fortunately by going to an all-women's college, I never had a shortage of faces to practice on. I found that the communications and business skills acquired my undergraduate studies would carry over when building my own business.
Education is a priority and I continue to further my education by attending professional makeup and esthetic workshops and classes whenever I can. In May 2018, I graduated from the 600-hour Advanced Esthetics program from Catherine Hinds Institute of Esthetics and left my corporate job to focus on my makeup and esthetics career. Great makeup starts with great skin and as both an esthetician and seasoned makeup artist, I am able to bring a 360-degree approach to anyone who sits in my chair.
Please note that I do not provide hair services.

I highly recommend working with Veronica! After an allergy test showed reactions to fragrances and other common topical ingredients, I was overwhelmed with analyzing ingredient lab...
els and how to restart my routine in preparation for my wedding. I tried, and threw away, countless products. Luckily, I came across Veronica's website and was comforted by her personal experience with sensitive skin and her esthetician background. I also loved how her portfolio featured all different types of skin and face shapes.
I started with a 1:1 makeup lesson with Veronica and it changed everything. It was amazing to talk to an expert and pick her brain about products, tools, and application techniques. By the end of our session, I had a list of safe-for-me products and a detailed skincare and makeup application routine. I felt pretty. My confidence in makeup application soared and I knew Veronica was the right person to help me on my wedding day.
Veronica is the definition of professionalism. She had all the details locked down and I never had to worry. I was in good hands! For the bridal trial, we had a constructive discussion about my desired bridal makeup style and it turned out better than I could've imagined. She is truly an artist. The day-of was also executed perfectly. Again, zero stress because Veronica is incredibly professional and calm. I was so happy with my wedding makeup -- it lasted through a warm July day filled with lots of dancing and hugging. It was perfect.
I’m so glad I chose Veronica for my wedding makeup! She was incredibly easy, professional, and fun to work with from start to finish. Throughout the entire process, she was so acco...
mmodating — from welcoming my mom to join me for my trial, to being flexible the morning of the wedding when one of my bridesmaids couldn’t make it and we had to quickly adjust the schedule.
Veronica made the entire morning feel calm and stress-free, and I could feel any nerves disappear as soon as I sat down in her chair. I absolutely loved how my makeup turned out and how confident and beautiful it made me feel. Best of all, my makeup literally did not budge all night! I would recommend Veronica without hesitation to any bride looking for a talented, kind, and reliable makeup artist.
I have been in several weddings and Veronica is by far the most attentive, caring, talented vendor I have encountered. Her attention to detail and cleanliness were top notch. She a...
lso stayed well into family photos to ensure our bride was all set with her touch ups, helping to adjust her train and veil - actions way outside of what she was hired to do. The final touch of leaving the bride with a touch up kit with instructions for makeup removal was just so sweet! Can't recommend her enough!
I cannot say enough good things about Veronica! We did a phone consult in January, a trial in June and my wedding in December and the entire process was so smooth! Veronica is insa...
nely talented and I was obsessed with my makeup, and also hardly had to do any touch ups! She is so sweet and amazing at what she does. The communication was seamless and I was not stressed at all because she truly knows what she is doing. Highly
recommend if you are able to work with her!
As someone who wears minimal makeup on the day to day and was traumatized by the last time I got my makeup professionally done as an Asian woman - I cannot reccomend Veronica enoug...
h! From her communications leading up to my trial and the big day she made sure I felt comfortable with the process and made sure I felt my best on the day.
There were concerns I had going in of wanting to look natural but my best and my eyemakeup in particular - she did a FANTASTIC job at getting my look down to perfection.
We had 8 people total (myself, MOB, MOG, 4 bridesmaids and 1 jr bridesmaid) and Veronica & Shannon arrived right on schedule and got through all of us with time to spare.
I cannot thank her enough for making me feel my best on one of the most important days of my life !
Veronica was an absolute delight to work with!! As a gay couple, it was important to us to find inclusive and diverse vendors for our wedding, and Veronica always made us feel comf...
ortable and seen.
We hired her services for our moms and ourselves, and she approached the whole process with care, enthusiasm, calm, and expertise. Her understanding of skincare and health was as important as her artistry—she didn't just make us look good, but she paid attention to each of our unique needs and chose products that left us feeling as good as we looked.
None of our party normally wears makeup, so we wanted to just look natural but elevated, and Veronica did that exceptionally well.
Makeup doesn't just need to be for young brides! If you're a man or mature woman questioning whether to hire Veronica—do it!! All of us were thrilled with her and would work with her again in a heartbeat.
Working with Veronica was a dream. I opted for a trial with her, which I highly recommend. She tailored the work specifically for me, used some of my everyday makeup, and was extre...
mely professional. She was also super personable with my bridal party. My makeup turned out beautifully, and I felt like myself but better!

Veronica was everything I hoped for in a makeup artist and more! As someone who enjoys makeup but doesn’t consider themselves very “girly” I was intimidated by the process of findi...
ng a makeup artist for my wedding. I was worried that someone would only want to do glam makeup and that just wasn’t for me. When talking to Veronica at our first consult I instantly felt like she really heard and understood what I was saying about what I wanted and my concerns about my skin (acne prone). At our trial she explained everything, answered my questions, offered advice, and talked through how she would take my bridal dreams and make them a reality. On the day of my wedding she came to me, made me feel pampered and utterly stunning. I got married in June and while it was a gorgeous day, it was hot, I was in the sun for a large chunk of the day, and I am a sweaty gal. My makeup stayed gorgeous from application (finished around noon) all the way through the dance floor that night! I used the oil blot pads she gave me in my touch up kit once before I walked down the aisle at 5pm and otherwise didn’t need any other touch ups. I could not have asked for a better experience with Veronica and I would recommend her to anyone!!
Veronica did such a lovely job with makeup for my sister, mom, and myself for my wedding. I don't usually wear makeup and felt a bit out of my depth during our first call but she w...
alked me through everything and made suggestions for how I could look natural, like an 'an elevated version of myself'. She even suggested a lipstick I could try ahead of time so she could purchase it for me with her discount. On the day of the wedding, she was incredibly punctual and organised, she really helped me stay calm whilst doing my makeup, and I was really happy with the outcome. My friend had done my hair right before hand and had to leave, and Veronica went above and beyond and touched up my curls with the curling iron before I had leave for pictures. She also provided a perfect little kit with everything I could need to touch up my makeup later in the night and take the makeup off after! I highly recommend!
Veronica was an absolute dream to have as our makeup artist for our wedding! All my girls absolutely LOVED her, my bridal makeup was absolutely perfect, I felt so beautiful. She re...
ally took the time to make sure everything was perfect, her communication was phenomenal and her super sweet friendly demeanor put everyone at ease on such a busy morning. I cannot recommend her high enough- book Veronica to make your wedding makeup everything you dreamed- just like she did for me 💕
Veronica is an exceptional makeup artist who truly made my wedding day unforgettable. From the moment we met her attention to detail and genuine passion for her craft stood out. Sh...
e not only showcased her incredible talent in makeup application but also created an atmosphere where I felt like the most beautiful version of myself.
Her ability to manage the makeup for all my bridesmaids while ensuring I received personalized attention was remarkable. I was speechless during my reaction video on her Instagram, which perfectly captured my joy and surprise at how stunning I looked. Veronica has a unique gift for enhancing natural beauty, making each person feel special and confident.
What impressed me most was her understanding of skincare, which she emphasized as crucial for achieving flawless makeup. This knowledge made a significant difference in how my makeup wore throughout the day and how I prepped my skin. I also opted for her touch-up services, which I highly recommend; they were essential for maintaining that perfect look.
The compliments from my bridesmaids were endless, and it was clear that Veronica had gone above and beyond their expectations. She is not just a talented artist but a genuinely caring person who wants her clients to feel comfortable and confident. Her dedication to understanding my vision, vibe, and look for my wedding day made all the difference.
I wholeheartedly recommend Veronica to anyone looking for a makeup artist who combines skill, professionalism, and a personal touch. She truly made my wedding day brighter and more beautiful. Thank you, Veronica, for everything!
Veronica was easily one of my favorite vendors from the whole wedding planning experience. Her demeanor is so polished and calm and she really knows her stuff, from skin care and m...
aintenance to the way different products interact with skin types. I am always impressed when I work with her and have recommended her to several friends and family. Aside from my now husband, booking her was my easiest "yes"!
I came to Veronica with absolutely no idea what I wanted or needed and she nailed everything. All I had to tell her was that I love my freckles and she came up with the most stunni...
ng look. I have never felt more beautiful in my life. All of my bridesmaids commented how much fun it was getting ready with her and her second artist, Shannon, and everyone loved how they looked. She made it so easy and perfect! Freckled and non-freckled brides alike - you cannot go wrong by hiring Veronica!

till stand out. She’s so professional, organized and even helped me come up with the perfect skincare routine to use in the year leading up to the wedding, ensuring that I had the best base for my natural glam look when the day came. I would highly recommend!

e professional, she catered to every detail of all of the girls along with her associate but gave the bride the VIP treatment. Staying until the moment she walked down the aisle. Touch ups throughout the day and just as if she were working on a Hollywood star! Can not say enough about what a wonderful experience we had!
Veronica was wonderful to work with for my wedding in Sept 2023. She was incredibly kind, professional, and very responsive with communication. From first meeting her, she was wa...
rm, welcoming, and easy to talk to. She took time to get to know me and my personal style, which reflected in her work. Her makeup style is natural and beautiful, and I felt like she truly captured the look I was going for. I highly recommend Veronica for all of your makeup needs!
Veronica is the best! I am not very well seasoned with makeup so during our trial she helped me find a look that I fell in love with and felt "like me" for my wedding day. She also...
helped me find a skin care routine that would be best for my skin type so I could have glowing and clear skin on my wedding day. She was extremely organized and just has such a calm demeanor that really helped me and my bridesmaids be able to relax and enjoy our time getting ready. Everyone was in love with their makeup and myself, my bridesmaids, and my mom and mother in law got so many compliments throughout the day. She really helps to bring our your natural beauty. If you are looking for a makeup artist for your big day, I couldn't recommend Veronica enough!
Veronica was amazing on my big day!! I absolutely loved working with her to create my bridal look!
Leading up to the wedding, we spoke multiple times to ensure that we were on th...
e same page and we met for a bridal trial. During the trial, she took her time and was able to accomplish the exact look I had envisioned in my mind. She took into account my very sensitive skin and only used products that she felt would be safe. She also created a seamless timeline for the day of and was very organized.
On the day of the wedding, she arrived right on time, with everything she needed, and got right to setting up! She brought a very calm energy and stayed on schedule the whole morning. My makeup looked exactly like it did on the day of my trial! She then met us at the venue for touch ups before the ceremony and she was super on top of it! She didn't miss a single thing! Everyone looked amazing!! She also left me with a very thorough touch up kit to use later in the night if necessary!
Veronica is extremely professional and organized! She is also very talented and knowledgable about makeup and skin. I would definitely recommend Veronica to anyone!!
Veronica and her colleague Kelly were wonderful to work with for wedding makeup. I don't wear a ton of makeup on a day to day basis and Veronica took that into consideration to cre...
ate a look that was formal enough for a wedding but still felt like me. The makeup for the whole wedding party looked stunning and fitting for each person. I also really appreciated her calming presence the morning of the wedding and the energy she and Kelly brought to the room. Veronica is professional, and organized and I highly recommend her!

Veronica was amazing to work with. As a bride, I was the last person in the hair and makeup chair. We were pressed for time and she was able to make my look absolutely perfect even with the time constraints. She is lovely and warm and will help make the getting ready process a breeze! Plus in the bridal package, she includes eye masks and gives a lovely relaxing facial massage!

est and greatest brands and products. She even helped me find the *perfect* lip color and ordered it for me in time for my wedding! In addition to her knowledge, her genuine kindness and professional attitude completely won me over. I told her she was my favorite (shh) vendor because she answered emails quicker than a timely fashion, was proactive with tips & tricks as well as a make up trial before the big day AND was flexible (many of my bridesmaids decided day of they wanted changes…) I honestly would not have trusted anyone else to fulfill my vision of natural but photo ready makeup. Can’t recommend highly enough!!! Thank you Veronica!
Veronica is a great makeup artist and one that I have trusted for years. From having her be my makeup artist while I was a bridesmaid in several other weddings to doing my own brid...
al makeup, she knew exactly what I want/need without my having to go into too much detail. She is responsive, serious about her work, and passionate as well. As a licensed esthetician, she took great care of any sensitivities I had and used the most premium products on me. She took extra care of me and my wedding party and the results were that I felt beautiful, the whole day! No touch ups were needed except to my lips. I'm so glad she was there for me on my special day and made me look like the queen that I felt like that day. Would recommend her to anyone that wants to look as gorgeous on the outside as they are in.

rganized, and most importantly a great makeup artist. Throughout my makeup trial, Veronica was patient and receptive to my requests and truly worked with me to make sure I was comfortable and loved the makeup that I would be wearing for my wedding. On the day of my wedding, she was a friendly and calming presence while efficiently working through makeup for everyone (she even stayed behind to help with a minor hair issue for one of my sisters once the hairdressers had left, going above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy!). My makeup looked exactly how we had done it for the trial, and exactly as I had wanted - I would highly recommend her!

rom our first email Veronica was both knowledgeable and friendly and I knew at my trial that she would be an incredible person to have around on the morning of my wedding to keep me relaxed and at ease. All of the makeup for the wedding party was incredibly natural and stunning, bringing out the natural beauty in all the wonderful women in my life. And, of course, my makeup was completely comfortable for my sensitive skin and lasted well throughout the long day. Veronica is talented and such a joy to work with. I can’t recommend her enough!

es, and taking the time to do multiple trials with me.
The day of, I received many compliments on how my makeup came out. She was also able to tailor her application for my mother, who wanted very minimal makeup and was incredibly hesitant to proceed. She wound up loving it and was so happy she got it done.
Veronica is very responsive to email, which was super important to me. I reached out to Veronica on a referral of someone else and will absolutely be passing your name on to others! Thank you so much!
I loved working with Veronica! When I got engaged I knew exactly who I was going to use! Veronica did my makeup trial for my bridal shower and it turned out amazing, everyone absol...
utely loved it. When it came to the wedding day I wanted the same thing, but with less intensity. She listened and delivered exactly that. I wanted to look natural and she did just that, but intensified my eye make-up and eye brows, so it would look perfect in the pictures. On my wedding day I felt like myself, which is exactly how I wanted to feel and look. The makeup held up the entire day (and let me tell you…I get hot VERY easily). I was constantly worried about looking sweaty and each time I looked in the mirror, my skin looked perfectly normal. Veronica is a talented, professional, and very friendly makeup artist. I would recommend her to anyone without any hesitation!

Having Veronica over was like having a friend or family member over - I immediately felt comfortable with her and trusting of her and her work. She listened to all of my wants and concerns and made sure that I was 100% happy with my look. On the day of the wedding, I felt so beautiful and completely like myself (I was told this many times throughout the night by my guests and that is the best compliment!) Veronica and her assistant, Heather, also did the rest of my bridal party and my mother and mother-in law. Everyone looked gorgeous and our makeup stood up to our 12 hour wedding day! I would not hesitate to contact and hire Veronica - she is kind, understanding, accommodating, passionate, knowledgeable, and punctual - a true joy to have by your side on one of your most special days of your life!
Veronica is the best! She is professional, talented and fun. My makeup was perfect, simple and beautiful and made me feel confident and beautiful.
