About

MY MAKEUP MANTRA HAS ALWAYS BEEN "LESS IS MORE."

As a musical theatre performer in the NYC/NJ area, I loved makeup – the cakey, heavy stage looks, not as much.
Then, at my own wedding, I found myself in a similar predicament: heavily made up to the point of not looking entirely like myself.

I dedicated myself to honing my passion for natural makeup artistry for beauty, bridal, film and TV, perfecting my craft and learning from industry experts James Vincent, Kristina Gasperas, Terri Tomlinson, Danessa Myricks, Ashley Fierro, and Rachel Lusk, among others.

I launched my professional career in the Shenandoah Valley. My work has been featured in respected platforms such as
Washington Family Magazine, the Emmy Awards (Capital Region), The 700 Club on CBN, DCW50 (Washington DC's
CW Network), and Everyday Wealth, a nationally syndicated video broadcast of the podcast/radio show hosted by Soledad O'Brien and Jean Chatzky.

Now, I create timeless, skin-forward makeup looks that put my clients’ natural beauty center stage. When I'm not sanitizing brushes, I indulge in reading, baking, practicing calligraphy, and cherishing moments with my family and miniature poodle.

A wonderful experience!

Kiley did wedding makeup for me and 3 of my 4 bridesmaids. Our wedding was at the Old Town Hall in Fairfax, so Kiley's studio was in walking distance. We picked her mainly due to that proximity, but now I am so glad that we chose her because of her skill, her wonderful personality, and her ability to keep everyone at ease. She found me the absolute perfect red lipstick (I'm actually going to buy one now), made my skin glow, and applied lashes that looked natural and stayed on all night. Most of my bridesmaids don't have a lot of makeup experience and she gave them very natural looks that enhanced their natural beauty.

Definitely consider Kiley if you're getting married in the Fairfax area-- or beyond!

Highly recommend Kiley!

As a wedding coordinator, I absolutely ADORE working with Kiley! She is so easy (and fun!) to work with, makes sure all her clients are on time and following the wedding day timeline. She does an incredible job with makeup and listening to the bride’s requests, all while making them look flawless. I highly recommend her to all of my couples!
