Sarah Sent on 01/05/2026Finn is amazing!
From our first e-mail interaction to the last bit of setting spray, Finn was so kind, graceful, and warm. She always made me feel heard and listened to what I had to say about my makeup. Her skill with makeup is truly remarkable. She made me feel beautiful on the biggest day of my life and my now husband loved how she did my makeup without me looking fake. I felt elegant and confident! Finn walks you through a skincare routine leading up to your big day because she truly believes in your skin health and you looking and feeling your best. She’s not just a phenomenal artist but also an amazing expert in achieving and maintaining healthy skin. All of my girls loved her for her skill and kindness. She won’t disappoint! -

The best decision you can make for your wedding day (or other milestone event)…
One of my favorite people I worked with for my wedding, Finn is talented beyond measure. She was able to create the soft glam, romantic look I was hoping for without caking on make-up. My look lasted from 11am to 11pm- and I have uploaded photos to show how long-lasting the look she put together was. She was easy to communicate with and incredibly responsive. Not only is Finn a talented make-up artist, but she is one of the kindest souls on this planet. She went above and beyond on my wedding day to make sure I was calm and had everything I needed, including that big hug when I began to feel a bit overwhelmed. I can’t thank her enough for being part of my day. She will be one of the best decisions you make while planning your wedding, trust me.

Anna Sent on 05/27/2025Amazing product, communication, and professionalism!
I had the absolute pleasure of working with Finn for my wedding, and I can confidently say she is incredible! She did my bridal makeup, as well as makeup for my mom, mother-in-law, and bridesmaids, and every single look was flawless. She also brought along another artist who was equally talented and a joy to have with us while getting ready. Together, they created a smooth, stress-free, and fun environment that helped set the perfect tone for the day. From day one, she was so communicative—always quick to respond and incredibly helpful with any questions I had. Her experience and expertise in the industry were clear throughout the entire process. She listened to what I wanted, offered great suggestions, and made me feel completely at ease. She is incredibly knowledgeable in skin care, and will provide you with the best routine and suggestions. The true test came on the wedding day when my skin was a little different than it had been during the trial—but she adjusted effortlessly and made me look and feel amazing. The makeup held beautifully all day and photographed like a dream. If you're looking for a skilled, professional, and kind makeup artist who will truly make you feel your best, look no further.

Therese Sent on 10/05/2024Perfect Experience! Made My Wedding Day Extra Special!
Finn was an absolute joy to work with on my wedding day! She made the whole process easy, and I felt completely at ease. The makeup was stunning and lasted all day. She was professional, fun to be around, and really listened to what I wanted. She also made my niece, who was our flower girl, feel so special by giving her a little glam of her own—she absolutely loved it! I highly recommend Finn to any bride looking for a talented and personable makeup artist! -

Stephanie Sent on 08/24/2024I love finn!
Finn was absolutely AMAZING to work with and she helped me to feel so so beautiful on our special day. She is super personable and really took the time during my trial to find the right products, as well as help prep my skin leading up to the big day by recommending what to do. My bridesmaids and mom loved their make up and it lasted through the whole day. 10/10 totally recommend! -

Ellie Sent on 05/21/2024Finn to my rescue!
Finn was AMAZING! My previous makeup artist canceled on me 3 days before the wedding. I reached out to Finn and she responded right away with her condolences. We scheduled a phone call that night to explain to me her process. The next day she set up a video consultation to determine what look I was hoping for and whether my skin was oily, dry, or a combination. Two days later I’m greeted by her smiling face at my venue and she made my day. I felt like a princess. Thank you so much Finn! My makeup was flawless. Highly recommended!!!! -

Katelyn Sent on 10/30/2023Amazing makeup artist!
Finn did a beautiful job with my wedding makeup as well as the make-up for all my bridesmaids, my mother, and grandmother. I absolutely loved her style. As someone who doesn't wear any make-up day to day, she helped work with me to help create a simple yet elegant look so I felt my best, natural self on my wedding day! She did the same for all the ladies in the group. She was on time, efficient, and so kind. It was truly so nice to get to know Finn through the process and she made everyone feel so comfortable on the wedding day as she helped perfect everyone's make up! -

Laura Sent on 08/10/2023Felt so beautiful!
I hired Finn for my wedding on 6/24/23 to do my makeup, the moms, and my bridesmaids. She came as a recommendation from a friend who has worked with her and hired her for her wedding that I was in. She was so professional and fabulous to work with! I felt so beautiful and my makeup and all my girls looked perfect from beginning to end! -

Finn is lovely!
Finn did my makeup and the makeup of my bridesmaids and moms (mom in law and mom). My favorite thing Finn did for me was give me great suggestions at our trial for products to help make my skin as healthy as possible for the wedding. I followed her advice and my skin was probably the best it had ever been, even despite the pre-wedding stress! Finn is also extremely talented in makeup. I will say some of us felt the makeup was more than what we were used to, but in the pictures everything looked fantastic. Finn is great to talk to and extremely caring. I highly recommend her! -

Finn did the make up for one of bridesmaids for her wedding in 2019 and after seeing how gorgeous my friend looked— I knew I had to hire Finn— and I was not disappointed! From my engagement photos, to the trial, to my wedding day, Finn was an absolute dream and I have never looked more beautiful. RUN don’t walk to hire Finn!!!! -

Laura Sent on 10/26/2022Finn made me feel absolutely beautiful!
Finn is an amazing makeup artist and awesome person who made my wedding day so much better! The looks that she created for me and my bridesmaids were natural and had everyone looking like the most beautiful version of themselves. Finn has such a knowledgable and kind approach. She was always there to answer any questions I had and even volunteered to talk to my mother who had never had professional makeup done before. She proactively coordinated with my hair stylist about timelines which took the pressure off myself as a very busy bride. I loved her holistic approach to skincare recommendations during the trial that led to my skin looking its best and most hydrated for the wedding day. I felt my most confident and beautiful on my wedding day because of the amazing look Finn created and I am so thankful! -

Taylor Sent on 10/19/2022Incredible makeup artist who loves what she does!
From the moment I first spoke with Finn, I knew I needed to book her for my wedding. She was so knowledgeable, and genuinely loves what she does. As someone who wears very little makeup, I was hesitant in having professional makeup done for my wedding, and not looking like myself but Finn made me feel beautiful! On actual wedding day, Finn and the Blush Away team did an incredible job on me and my girls. Every single one of my bridesmaids are still talking about how much they loved their look. If you are looking for a makeup artist who will make you feel like the gorgeous bride you deserve to be on your wedding day, look no further than Blush Away. Thank you, Finn! -

Theresa Sent on 05/04/2022Amazing makeup artist
Finn did an amazing job with my bridal makeup, as well as makeup for my mom and seven bridesmaids. She was super helpful at my trial and created a beautiful natural look that was exactly what I wanted and gave me some good skincare tips. The morning of my wedding she was so calm and organized but also tons of fun- my bridal party all had a great time getting their makeup done and everyone loved their looks. I would 100% recommend Finn to anyone who needs a makeup artist for their wedding or any other event! -

Finn was such a calm, positive presence for me on my wedding day! My makeup was beautiful and lasted the entire night. Finn was also very understanding and flexible, since my getting ready location changed a few times. From the moment I talked to her on the phone, I knew I wanted to book Finn! -

Finn - Exceptional, Professional, and Amazing to work with
Finn was incredible to work with and made myself, all of my bridesmaids, my mom and MIL look and feel like our best. She was extremely organized which was very helpful to me as I was working full time while working on my masters and living in Georgia. We did a makeup trial a few months before the wedding which was extremely helpful to see what the look would be on the big day. She listened to what I wanted and executed my vision perfectly. The day of the wedding Finn was on time and ready to go! I was last to get my makeup done and I remember her saying "I want you to really relax while I put your makeup on because the rest of the day is going to fly by!" which was of course 100% true and I was glad to have those minutes to really relax and soak it all in! I could praise Finn all day long and would recommend her for any formal occasion! -

The most beautiful, soft romantic makeup on the most beautiful day
Finn, from Blush Away Makeup, was so wonderful to work with for my wedding.
The makeup she did on myself, all five of my bridesmaids, my mother, and mother-in-law was stunning. Despite the fact that we all look incredibly different everyone who got makeup done looked incredible.
Finn even took the time to speak with my mother in law, ahead of the wedding, to discuss her skin sensitivities and concerns.
I really felt like I looked my most beautiful on my special day.
Thank you again Finn for all your hard work! -

Rachel Sent on 03/22/2021Finn is the absolute best
I was so pleased to work with Finn on our engagement shoot and ultimately our micro wedding. She is such a well organized, calming presence and I loved interacting with her from start to finish. You can immediately tell she takes a lot of pride in her work, and really helps to ensure a smooth and easy wedding day. Most importantly for me, I felt like Finn and I came up with a makeup plan that really allowed me to look and feel like the most gorgeous version of myself. And, I definitely cried during our ceremony and my makeup didn't budge! :) -

Finn did such a wonderful job with my makeup! I requested a bold lip, and she created a bold, custom color that stood out beautifully in all of the photos. The makeup brought my entire wedding look together! I could not recommend her more! -

Fantastic Job!
Finn is a lovely person and did a fantastic job with everyone’s makeup. The bride and bridesmaids were interested in a pretty, but natural look. She got it perfectly and they all LOVED their makeup. Having a wedding in the middle of a global pandemic presented special challenges. Finn made everyone feel beautiful, special, comfortable and safe. We cannot recommend her highly enough! -

Thea Sent on 09/28/2020Perfect Wedding Make-Up!!
Picking a wedding makeup artist can be scary (you dont want to make a mistake and not love your look!), but from my very first interaction with Finn at Blush Away Makeup I knew I was in good hands. She nailed exactly what I wanted for my wedding at both the trial and the wedding day itself. My bridesmaids were also super pleased which means a lot as I wanted them to be happy with the way they looked too! Do not hesitate to chose Blush Away Makeup, Finn will listen to your vision/preferences and give you exactly what you want, even better than you thought! -

Stacy Sent on 09/24/2020I felt so BEAUTIFUL on my wedding day!
I was married on March 7th, 2020 in Culpeper VA. Our wedding venue connected us to the fabulous Finn at Blush Away Makeup for our wedding makeup needs. Finn was amazing! She was organized and on top of all details, worked with us to create a smooth timeline in getting myself and all my girls ready for the day and made us all feel like models on wedding day. She also worked with me a few months prior to the wedding to put together a full face care routine to assist in getting my skin to feel great and healthy and she sent me a few self care suggestions and routines to make sure I was taking care of myself through the expected wedding planning stress. Not only will you feel incredibly beautiful and glamorous on your wedding day, but you will also walk away feeling like you have a new friend. Finn is extremely talented and a wonderful person and you will be thrilled to have Blush Away Makeup glamming you and your girls up on your wedding day! -

Excellent makeup artist!
Finn did a wonderful job of doing my makeup on my wedding day. She is easy to talk to and truly listens to how you want to look on your wedding day. She customized every little detail to exactly how I wanted it! From the trial we made tweaks to the makeup routine and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect look. Highly recommend! -

Meredith Sent on 05/26/2020Stunning Wedding Look!
Finn is an absolute joy to work with! From the first introduction through the wedding she wants to ensure that you will not only look beautiful, but feel beautiful as well. Finn focuses on bringing out your natural beauty which means she doesn't just apply makeup. Throughout the trial, Finn discussed with me my skin care and makeup routine. She gave me dietary suggestions as well skincare instructions to help me in the months I had before my wedding to ensure a glowing and healthy look from the inside.
On the day of my wedding, Finn made me feel pampered and special. I felt completely at ease knowing I was in her hands. After she was finished applying my makeup, I could not stop looking at myself! When my maid of honor and my photographer saw me they kept telling me I looked like a supermodel!
Throughout the day and into the night, the makeup held up extremely well. I felt confident and absolutely radiant!
My husband said that Finn enhanced my beauty and and personality without changing me. I could not be more pleased with the way everything turned out and I would highly recommend Finn for you wedding day or any other special event. -

Finn is an incredible artist. She listened to exactly what I wanted and my make up was perfect on my wedding day. I usually do not wear much make up and she did a great job of making it look natural and highlighting my features. Her attention to detail was unparalleled and she ensured that the makeup looked exactly how I envisioned it. I would definitely recommend her to any bride looking for a great makeup artist! -

Finn is wonderful! Not only did she create the wedding look of my dreams, but she gave me skin care advice that I will use long term. Finn was so calm on the day of and helped me deep breathe when we thought the car keys were lost. She does a great job and really knows her stuff! -

Stephanie Sent on 03/12/2019Finn is awesome!
I hired Blush Away for my engagement shoot and for my wedding and she was awesome! Finn was super responsive leading up to the wedding. I don't wear makeup very much in my day to day life so I was weary of having my makeup done professionally and having it look too heavy, but Finn was great at helping me make some decisions so that on the day I felt like myself, but also glamorous. Of all the people I hired for my wedding, Finn was by far my favorite. -

Caitlin Sent on 01/13/2019Finn is the best!
I loved working with Finn and Dina (Dare To Dream Hair) for my wedding. They did such a phenomenal job on hair and make-up for my bridesmaids and I. I felt positively radiant on my wedding day, and didn’t want to take the make-up off, I loved how natural, yet amazing it made me look! Finn was super responsive and helpful leading up to the wedding, and incredibly organized. She put together a schedule for hair and make-up for me, 6 bridesmaids, and the moms, and we were all ready to go on time - no scrambling! Finn and Dina were both so lovely and so much fun to work with. It was so easy to coordinate hair and makeup, because Finn did all of the coordinating and payments. Finally I particularly appreciated Finn’s focus not just on makeup but on skincare. She provided a recommended skincare routine and suggested products if I did not already have one that I used/liked. From start to finish, Finn was great to work with. 10/10 would work with Finn again and would definitely recommend her for your wedding! -

I felt absolutely beautiful on my big day, all thanks to Finn. Finn is fabulous, sweet, professional, and extremely talented. She went above and beyond to make certain I was completely relaxed throughout the entire process. In addition to taking care of me, she also did a stunning job on all thirteen of my bridesmaids. Finn is superwoman! I am so so happy with my decision to work with Finn and the Blush Away Makeup team for my special day. -

Amanda Sent on 01/02/2019Easy and High Quality
Finn is a fantastic makeup artist. She made a point of taking the time to properly prep my skin and boy did it help. We were outdoors at noon in ridiculous heat and humidity. My face was perfect for the entire ceremony and reception. I barely slept the night before the wedding and Finn did an amazing job of hiding my tiredness and making me look and feel gorgeous. We had a very specific vibe for our wedding and even though Finn joined the team pretty close to the home stretch she really got that vision and executed it to perfection. From a business perspective, Finn is extremely organized and straightforward to work with. I cannot recommend her highly enough! -

Mikala Sent on 09/24/2018Finn is magnificent. She has this amazing ability to not only make you look but feel like the most beautiful person in the world. I went into my wedding day with confidence and tranquility thanks to her. October 2017 she did my bridal PLUS 6 bridesmaids full make up and didn't break a sweat. All of my girls couldn't stop raving about how it was the best they have ever had! I wish I could keep Finn in my back pocket to help me get ready every day. You can tell that Finn has a passion for what she does. I appreciated all of the pre-wedding work that she put in, and her holistic-mind, body, soul approach was exactly what I wanted and needed! I cannot say enough good things about Finn, if I could give her 10 stars I would. You will not be disappointed.

Caitlin Sent on 04/20/2018Finn is Fantastic! I just blessed to have her do mine and my ladies makeup for my April 2018 wedding. She was a joy to work with: very talented, knowledgeable, and helpful. I love that she listened and truly helped enhance my makeup without making me feel like I was not myself. I also appreciated that she was very knowledgeable about skincare. Finn is also just a fun, lovely person to be around. All of our beautiful makeup looks lasted the whole day and looked fantastic to the very end. I highly recommend Blush Away Make Studio!

Christina Sent on 05/13/2017If I could give Finn beyond 5 stars, I would!! I hired Finn as the makeup artist for my April 2017 wedding and she was such a joy to work with from beginning to end. I've never had makeup professionally applied before, and besides covering up a few scars, don't wear it on a regular basis, so I was pretty nervous about hiring a makeup artist for my wedding day. Being a Black female, I also wanted to find someone who could blend the colors well to match the skin tones of me and my bridesmaids. It was during my makeup trial that I knew I was in safe hands with Finn! She talked me through every step and made sure I felt comfortable. She discussed getting me into a good skin care routine prior to the wedding and gave me some products to use to get my skin in good shape for the wedding day (and beyond!). The day of the wedding went perfectly and Finn's presence put me at ease as I anxiously waited for hours before seeing my groom! She helped me achieve a natural look and the makeup lasted all day in 90+ degree heat! As a certified wedding and events planner myself, I will definitely be going back to Finn for future makeup needs (hello new headshots!!) and will definitely refer our brides to her for their wedding day needs as well. If you're thinking about hiring Finn, do it!!
