Best makeup artist in NJ/NYC

Carolyn and her team are a gem to work with! They are so sweet and we couldn't even tell how fast time just went by getting ready. Everything was so smooth and I loved how she walked me through everything while doing her thing! She made me the most beautiful bride on my wedding day! Gave me everything I wanted if not more than what I expected. I would trust her blindly! My makeup stayed on all night

10/10 exceptional experience

My entire experience with Carolyn and her team was flawless from start to finish. Her assistant, Sam, did a wonderful job answering her emails in a timely fashion. She made me feel comfortable asking questions. Carolyn was extremely professional during our trial and the day of my wedding. She made me feel (and look,) like a beautiful bride. She made me feel confident. She did not rush me or any of my party. Her team that came with her provided flawless and beautiful make up as well. You will not regret booking Carolyn for your big day. I got compliments all night on my makeup. I will book her again for other events and plan to use her for the rest of my life!

Absolutely must book!

Carolyn is absolutely amazing. Her talent is beyond perfection she is so talented and makes you feel and look amazing on your special day. Her and her team made all my bridesmaid look perfect and listened to what each bridesmaid wanted (every single girl LOVED how they looked). Not only are her make up skills top notch..she has a shining personality, legit lights up the room she walks into with her bright smile and warm energy, she makes the bride and bridal party feel AMAZING and is so easy to talk to and get along with. She made my wedding morning so much fun and I am SO SO happy I booked her. She is worth every single penny and then some. BOOK HER ASAP!!
