About

I’m a Colombian born, Miami based Make Up Artist.

I worked in Advertising for over six years back in Colombia. I moved to Miami in 2007, where I met “my Angelita”, the person who introduced me to Make Up, a whole new, never considered before path opened right in front of me. It was the biggest surprise of my life.

I’m always asking myself what can I do to make each moment the best it can be. I enjoy human contact, the adrenaline of the set, the joy of a wedding, traveling and meeting new places and people, seeing new things, that’s what inspires me.

I like working in every kind of production, being part of talented teams and opening my range to new both life and work perspectives.

My job keeps on showing me new ways in which I can develop myself as an artist. Doing brides fills me up with energy. The most special day of your life’s joy it’s contagious and I love being part of that. I love being part of happy stories.

Character development really gears up my creativity, I enjoy it deeply; from research to connecting with the writers, actors and directors; from styling to the full completion of the character.

Many of the amazing experiences I get to live happen inside Susi Makeup Studio, a place where I explore aesthetics, styling and photography.

I have a lot of dreams for the future, but I like for life to surprise me. That’s why I say make up is my biggest surprise, because every new Project is a new life experience.

Amazing experience and talented artist!

Susana was absolutely amazing! She's a sweetheart and a true magician with those makeup palettes and hairbrushes, and all of the ladies were happy and absolutely stunning. My mom has never looked so beautiful in her life, which makes this bride even happier. Our wedding was a destination wedding, so Susana had to accommodate to our weird schedule, hide the layover from our faces, and book a very late Hair and Makeup Trial for us. She was always easy to talk to and work with. She made it all work and look effortlessly. She was punctual, friendly, good with the different personalities and requests, and such an artist. We all looked beautiful all day and night long, and woke up the next day, still tipsy, with our hair and makeup intact! Susana will be doing my Maid of Honor's hair and makeup next for my MOH’s upcoming wedding! That's how much we loved her. Highly, highly recommend.

Incredibly talented and truly genuine!

Working with Susi was amazing. I worked with her for 3 days in a row for my very multicultural wedding and she is such a pleasure to be around! Not only that is is incredibly talented at both make up and hair - and truly listens to what you want. I had done 2 trials with her (I had a lot of different hair options I wanted to try out) but from the first 5 Minutes of my first trial I knew I would go with her for my wedding weekend. She did my hair and make up for my mehndi, rehearsal dinner and wedding and every single night I received numerous compliments on my hair and make up! She does an incredibly natural yet polished look that makes you still feel like you - and most importantly she listens to you. I’ve worked with some hair and make up artists who don’t actually listen and only impose their opinions - but rest assured, that is not Susi!!! She listens to what you want, and gives her best advice taking in to consideration what you’ve said! It feels like you have known her for years after knowing her for just a few hours! I am so grateful to Susi for being so present each day of my wedding and would recommend her in a heartbeat. If more hair and makeup artists are needed she brings along someone who is equally as talented and sweet (Juliana) who did a great job on my mother and mother-in-law. I can’t thank Susi enough for being such a talented breath of fresh air on my wedding weekend - truly felt like she actually relaxes you too, while doing a beauteous job on hair and make up! She is super proactive and responsive anytime you have questions ahead of your event - and not to mention quite punctual! Looking forward to hopefully working with her again soon for my next event!

Beautiful Hair and Makeup!

A friend of mine had used Susi for the hair/makeup of her wedding, which I was very happy with so I decided to use her as well. There were 9 hair and makeups for my wedding, so Susi brought two others with her to help out in getting everyone done. I thought everyone's hair and makeup came out great and everyone looked beutiful in their photos. I was initially not pleased with a part of my hair look, which Susi easily and quickly fixed for me and the end product was beautiful and I love all of my photos and how I looked on my wedding day. They were also very punctual and we actually finished hair/makeup early which was great! I also had Susi stay for touchups, which she gladly did. I also did a trial a few months before the wedding, which I highly recommend... not only to get an idea of what you'd like to do for your wedding day, but also because the views from Susi's studio are spectacular! All in all I am 100% pleased with the services provided and would recommend Susi to anyone looking for hair/makeup for their wedding.

Susana is extremely talented, professional and kind. She was able to create exactly what I wanted for my make up and hair on my wedding day, and both looked amazing in photos! I'm so happy that I found Susana and would recommend her 100% to anyone looking for a wedding makeup/hair artist!

This woman played a key role in my wedding. She was my hair stylist and makeup artist on the day of. She blew my mind with her service and connection. On time, professional, talented and sweet. She made 7 people look and feel like royalty. I still can’t believe she was around after the ceremony to retouch my makeup. Beautiful person and talented makeup artist with a big heart and truly cares about each client and client guests.

Hiring Susana to do my makeup was one of the best decisions I made in the wedding process. Not only is she talented, she has a great personality and she is a true pleasure to be around - something very important to consider for the day of the wedding. She is kind, hard working and really works with you to make sure she executes your look perfectly. She also surrounds herself with a great team of make up/hair stylists. I had a big bridal party and they were all talented, efficient and focused. I really could not recommend Susana more!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
