Hi, nice to meet you!

Like many people, my interest in makeup started when I was a little girl. I found it fascinating to watch my mother put on makeup before going to work. I waited for her to leave, raided her closet and had a blast! I have always had a creative mind, which led me to attend college of Communications/Journalism. But after 12 years in a newsroom, I needed a change of pace, so I decided to pursue my passion and beautify the world! Today I feel much happier and more fulfilled knowing that I am able to bring a sense of well-being to everyone who sits in my chair. Thank you for your interest in my work!

I am based in Orlando, FL, but I can travel to wherever you are. I specialize in bridal and special events makeup, but I also love working with a variety of photographers for photo shoots too! No matter  the occasion… My brushes and I are here for you!

"To me, the essence of truly modern makeup is the freedom to be yourself, to express who you are."

– François Nars

Beauty is a journey...

Makeup is a very transformative and powerful experience that can either bring out the best in us or it can be used to disguise something that makes us feel insecure, but it should definitely be a fun adventure that makes us feel good. My mission is to bring beauty  in an uncomplicated way to everyone who likes to play with colors, experiment with different textures and discover new sensations. 

Learning and discovering new things is never enough, so studying about makeup is an tireless source of pleasure for me. I am always looking to improve my techniques and products, so my knowledge on this subject is constantly being renewed.

I have always been the go-to friend that answers all the makeup questions, and I’ve been doing my family & friends’ makeup for a looong time. Having this passion and being able to express my creativity through makeup feels very therapeutic to me, therefore I want to make this experience as much fun and enjoyable for you too. 

I recently got married to the love of my life, Michael, who is my best friend and my safe haven. So if you are a bride, I totally understand *all the feels*! I want to make sure you are heard and all your questions are answered, so your big day goes by as smooth as possible, and you remember that moment of getting glammed up with a happy smile on your face!
