“I would hire Jenn as my makeup artist over and over again for any special event. Jenn is a gifted wedding makeup artist and generous in her warm approach.”
“Jennifer is an exceedingly talented makeup artist. As a bride-to-be, I’ve gone through a number of makeup trials with MUAs who didn’t seem receptive to what I wanted for my wedding day. Jennifer proved the polar opposite in asking for both inspiration photos and my aesthetic preferences. Likewise, the products she used in my preview were long-lasting yet looked luminous and natural; even my fiance praised her work, saying it was his “favorite look by far.” Now, instead of fretting about bridal beauty mishaps, I’m very much looking forward to leaving my makeup—as well as that of my wedding party—in Jennifer’s capable hands. I can’t recommend her highly enough”

Kind Words From Past Makeup Clients
“I was looking for a classic, not overdone look, and that was exactly what she accomplished for the look! Naturally enhanced beauty.
Jenn was easy to talk to and work with along the way. The bridal party also had their makeup done, and I remember one of my bridesmaids saying this is the most beautiful I have ever felt in my life!
On my wedding day, I woke up with an allergic reaction in my eye. What seemed like a nightmare situation was put to ease when Jenn calmly applied makeup to the eye in just the right way to make it seem as normal as possible.
From the pictures, you cannot even tell that my eye was swollen that morning. Jenn is a gifted wedding makeup artist and generous in her warm approach.”

“Jenn was wonderful! She did my makeup and my bridal party’s makeup and it was incredible. I didn’t even need to give direction, it was like she just knew how to make all of us look as beautiful as possible and then some. She was professional and flexible, and her work was impeccable. I would and plan to refer her to anyone looking for makeup for their special day. She made me feel the way every bride is supposed to feel... beautiful, confident, and special.”

“Jenn was a perfect fit for my bridal make up... She does everything through a portal to keep everything easy and organized. She listened to exactly what I wanted (which was a minimalistic soft glam look) and I got exactly what I asked for.
Jenn used brand name, high quality products and was transparent about pricing, product use and did not hesitate to share feedback on any suggestions or questions I had since I’m not very knowledgeable about make up.
Jenn is super friendly and easy to work with, communicated easily through text and email. All of these attributes make her work cost effective.
Also, my wedding was hot, humid and a tornado came through not too far from where our beach front wedding was (Fairfield, CT) and my make up endured the elements through the whole day and night…I was highly impressed with my bridal trial and day of make up!”
