Nicole was great! I booked her last minute and I didn't have a clear idea of what I wanted. She worked with me and found the perfect look. She was flexible with scheduling and was super fun to have in the beauty suite! My makeup looked beautiful all night. I would highly recommend her!

I heart Sweetpea! Nicole was a dream to work with. She totally understood what I wanted and made me look like the prettiest version of myself. Plus, my makeup stayed literally all day in August no less! If I could have my makeup done everyday like a fabulous celebrity, she'd be my girl.

Nicole at Sweet Pea Beauty took the time to listen to my bridal wants and needs concerning my makeup. I have always preferred a natural look and do not usually wear a lot of make up in my day to day life. She did a thorough make up trial on me and went we only had to go through a couple of looks before I was satisfied completely. She uses the highest quality products and maintains a professional and calming demeanor, since we all know weddings can be quite stressful!

To this day, I still receive compliments on how beautiful I looked. I highly recommend using her service, you surely won't be disappointed!

Nicole did my makeup for my engagement photo shoot. She came to my house and set everything up on my dining room table... it was so relaxing to have my makeup done in the comfort of my own house! She's so easy to talk to and she answered all of my makeup questions throughout the process. I thought i'd be bold and go with a really dark lip but ended up not liking it... Nicole was so nice as I changed my mind a million times... she removed the dark lip color and we tested out other lip colors until I found one I liked. I highly recommend Nicole for any brides looking for an easygoing, very friendly makeup artist who really knows what they're doing and explains everything step by step!
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
