Nadiya Mashkina Enchanting Makeup Artist

She made me feel beautiful on my wedding day. She did all of my bridesmaids as well as my mom and husbands mom. They all looked so incredible. She was literally the nicest person ever, she is professional and she answered all of my emails so quickly. I highly recommend her! 10/10!!!

We found Nadiya on the Knot, and after looking at her work on Instagram, we were really hoping we’d be lucky enough to work for her, even though we only needed makeup for me and my wife. Luckily, she was willing to work something out for us! She squeezed us in for a late night makeup trial and was very collaborative every step of the way. My wife and I have different aesthetics, but we both wanted a bold makeup look. I wanted grungy and dark, and she wanted full glam. Nadiya took her time with each phase of the application and made very intentional decisions while checking in if it made sense for the vision and our skin type. We were thrilled with the trial but did have a few notes, which Nadiya sought out the next day by specifically asking for feedback so she could make any adjustments for the wedding day.

Both before the trial and our wedding day, Nadiya sent instructions to help us prepare our skin to be the best canvas possible for our makeup, which was very helpful. She came into our chaotic wedding suite, and made both of our faces complete works of art! Something my wife greatly appreciated since our family and close friends started filtering into our suite, is that Nadiya helped her navigate the barrage of people who kept running up to her and wanting to engage while she was trying to get ready. She would very professionally let them know the bride could say a quick hi, but that she needed to focus. That was very comforting to my wife, because she didn’t have to be the one to tell our loved ones that she really couldn’t get in a whole conversation at that moment.

People commented on our makeup all night! Not only on the skillful application, but how much each makeup look was distinctly “US.” If you want to feel like the most beautiful version of yourself, let Nadiya know what your vision is and she will get you there.

Thank you Nadiya!

Nadiya is the absolute best and made the morning of our wedding run so smoothly!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nadiya from **Nadiya Mashkina Makeup**! From my trial to my wedding day, she was an absolute dream to work with. She truly LISTENED to what I wanted, asked thoughtful questions, and created a makeup plan that felt perfectly tailored to me. I never once felt pushed into a look that wasn’t “me" instead, she enhanced my features in the most beautiful, natural, and confident way.

Nadiya also went above and beyond by giving me incredibly helpful, clear instructions on how to prep my skin for my wedding day specifically for makeup. That guidance made such a difference and helped everything look flawless and long-lasting.

Beyond her obvious talent, what really sets Nadiya apart is *her presence*. She has the sweetest, most encouraging way of talking to you while she works, gently hyping you up, pointing out your best features, and making you feel so cared for. Sitting in her chair felt calming, joyful, and confidence-boosting. You truly cannot help but feel beautiful when she’s doing your makeup.

I felt absolutely stunning on my wedding day, and that is 100% thanks to Nadiya. If you’re looking for someone who is incredibly skilled, attentive, professional, and genuinely uplifting, look no further. I would recommend Nadiya Mashkina Makeup to anyone without hesitation! 💖

Nadiya is the best! The excellent customer service starts from the time you inquire on booking! She listened to my wants and needs and she added her expertise to make my vision come to life!!! Her warmth, charm, not to mention her magic made my wedding vision day into a reality! I cannot stress enough how great Nadiya is!!! My mom and I are not makeup people but she made us feel comfortable and I didn’t even feel like I had makeup on! And it lasted all day, sweat proof, tear proof!!!!! Thank you Nadiya!!!

Nadiya did an amazing job on my wedding day! Her work was recommended by a friend. She was patient and efficient and made us all look flawless. We each had different styles and levels of comfort and Nadiya ensured that her work was fitting for each of us. My mom was nervous to get her make up done because she typically does not get lashes or wear a lot of make up and she absolutely loved the work Nadiya did. My look was just what I had hoped for! I trusted her expertise and gave her a rough estimate of what my vision was and I looked flawless! My make up stayed perfect for two days before I decided to clean up and take off my lashes:) She will be your biggest fan and is the sweetest! thank you Nadiya!!!

Truly can't say enough about how amazing Nadiya was to work with and how BEAUTIFUL she made me and the rest of my wedding party feel! She is so incredibly talented and uplifting, but she also listened to all of my feedback from my trial and executed FLAWLESSLY on wedding day! I felt like an enhanced version of myself in the best way possible. Thank you, Nadiya, for everything!!!

Nadiya was the most amazing makeup artist for my wedding day on 9/27/25! I did a trial with her in January and right when I met her, she was the most welcoming and warmest individual I have ever met. She talked me through the entire makeup process, things I liked and did not like, what I was envisioning for my wedding day, and looked at photos I brought with that I found online and on her Instagram page and talked through those.

Nadiya took a photo of me after my trial, and I also took one about 12 hours later to show her on the morning of my wedding how my makeup lasted. She looked at both photos, came prepared with her own critiques from the trial, and listened to the minor changes I wanted. I never wore false eye lashes before and I think Nadiya could feel my semi uncomfortableness with them at our trial because day of the wedding she came prepared with a different type of false eyelash that I loved.

My makeup lasted ALL night, and I got so many compliments. All of my bridesmaids, mother of the bride, and mother of the groom's makeup looked phenomenal all night too. Having Nadiya there in the morning was so fun, and she just added a depth of fun and excitement to getting ready! I highly recommend

I had the absolute pleasure of having Nadiya as my makeup artist for my wedding day, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the moment she arrived, she brought such a warm and calming energy. She was incredibly knowledgeable and knew exactly how to enhance my features while still making me feel like myself. My makeup lasted beautifully all day and night. I can’t recommend her enough!

I found Nadiya on The Knot while searching for a local makeup artist, and I’m so glad I did! We scheduled a trial and instantly clicked — she made me feel completely at ease. I shared that I wanted a soft, natural look for my November wedding, and she delivered beautifully during the trial. But on the actual wedding day? I was speechless. I’ve never felt so confident, comfortable, and truly beautiful in my own skin.

I was so thrilled with her work that I went back again this month for our wedding reception — and I’ve already booked another appointment for later this year! Nadiya is truly gifted at what she does. Her kind spirit and genuine excitement add so much to the experience. She listens closely and creates a look that not only enhances your natural beauty, but makes you feel like the best version of yourself. You won’t just love the look — you’ll want to recreate it again and again!
