About

My name is Amy Nicole Vogelsinger and as the founder of NV Makeup Artistry, my goal is to capitalize on my passion for making people feel better about themselves. After graduating college with a BA in Marketing and spending several years in the business field I decided to make a career change and received my Makeup Artist Certification from the school of MakeUp First, LLC. While every woman enjoys feeling beautiful, I wanted to take my skill and expertise to the next level. While finding the right shades and application are the basics of my craft, my true talents lie within my strong desire to have my clients look in the mirror when i'm finished and say to themselves, "Wow, I feel amazing!" Throughout my ongoing training through various workshops and classes, I've had the opportunity to perfect techniques in working on people of all ages, ethnicity, gender, and skin types. I have experience in bridal, theatrical, clinical, HD, and media makeup applications. The biggest reward I receive from transitioning to this career path lies within the looks on my clients' faces that tell me I've helped them feel confident and beautiful!

We worked with Amy from NV Makeup Artistry for our recent wedding; she provided makeup for myself (the bride), my mom, bridesmaids, and my grandmother.

She was an absolute pleasure to work with and did a phenomenal job. I don't typically wear a lot of makeup; Amy did a great job on applying a natural look with just enough drama to photograph beautifully and make me feel extra beautiful on my special day! My mother, bridesmaids, and grandmother looked stunning, as well.

From our first contact, Amy was incredibly professional, responsive, and friendly. She came to our home for a trial and stayed for over an hour perfecting just the perfect look; a recent bride herself, she was incredibly open to feedback and wanted to make certain my vision come to life!

On the day of the wedding, it was more of the same; she and her assistant arrived on time and worked with every girl individually based on their needs and desired looks! She finished everyone on time, if not, ahead of schedule!

I would highly recommend Amy!

I recently got married in September 2012 and I used Amy from NV Makeup. She was AMAZING! I can't say enough great things not only about her work but her professionalism. My hair salon was taking FOREVER with each of the bridesmaids' hair and Amy handled it like a champ, switching around the time slots for the girls to accommodate us. I love, love, loved my makeup so much. I received compliments on it all night. I am planning on using her in the future for special events :) One of my bridesmaids recommended her to her friend as well and it turned out beautiful again! 5 stars at least, i would give her more if I could. Loved her make up belt of brushes and tools she wore!

Amy did my make-up for a wedding I attended as a guest in Chicago in early November. I was feeling very pale since this was early-November, but she did a great job of "waking up" my face and using colors and techniques that complemented my skin.
I usually don't wear a lot of make-up, so I appreciated that Amy asked me what look I was going for and customized a "look" that I could feel comfortable in.
Amy is very approachable and easy to work with. She is not overbearing and wants you to be comfortable in your own skin. I'd definitely work with her again!

Awesome makeup done here!! Amy did my makeup for a wedding I was involved with in August, and she did an excellent job. We talked about how I usually did my makeup, and then she explained things to me and showed me the products she was using and the various colors that she thought would work for me. I was so happy with the end result! She was also very accommodating to my schedule and was easy to work with!

NV Make Industry is an amazing company! I would highly recommend Amy! She did my make up on my wedding day and I felt absolutely gorgeous! She knew exactly what techniques to use on my face and her work was truly flawless!

After struggling for months to find someone to do my makeup for my out of state wedding, my maid of honor recommended Amy as she had done the makeup for one of her friend's weddings in the area. I immediately felt good about my decision to contact her as she was extremely understanding and flexible to my situation of not living in the state during the months leading up to the wedding (which was rare among vendors). During my makeup trial Amy was awesome, trying different options for me and making sure I felt comfortable with everything we were doing. A couple days before the wedding I contacted her to see if she could come a bit earlier as my grandmother also wanted to get her makeup done. Amy was able to accommodate without a moment of hesitation. On the day of the wedding, she managed to do pretty much my entire wedding party on her own in about a 4 or 5 hour span of time, including packing up all her things and moving locations halfway through because of an issue at the hotel. Between her overall flexibility, extremely cheerful nature, and professionalism to ensure that everyone felt as put together and comfortable as possible Amy was absolutely fantastic and I would recommend her to anyone.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
