Best hair & makeup artist EVER!!

Nicole is absolutely AMAZING! She is exactly who I wanted in a hair and makeup artist for my very special day. I wanted someone who was obviously a master of the craft, but more importantly, someone who would hype me up & make me feel beautiful throughout the day. Nicole was just that!! She not only made me feel like the moment, but made me LOOK like the moment. She’s so professional, kind, punctual and communicative. I knew I could trust her leading up to the wedding and of course, on the wedding day. You truly don’t need to look further- SHE IS YOUR GIRL!!

THE BEST! Nicole won’t disappoint!

Trial
* Make Up Trial: I was looking for a makeup artist who does a light, natural look since I don’t normally wear a lot of makeup on a day to day basis. Nicole did exactly that!
* Hair Trial: I wanted a half up, half down, with very curly hair since my curls tend to fall out at the end of the night. The hair clips that I bought wasn’t what I had envisioned so Nicole suggested fresh baby breath instead which was the perfect small touch I was looking for.
Day Of
* Nicole, Danielle, and Silvia arrived at the venue on time. They each had their own hair/make up station. Even though we had 22 services, they stayed on schedule and it never felt rushed, always at ease. Everyone looked gorgeous and loved how their hair and makeup turned out!
Overall
* Nicole is so sweet, kind, and personable. She made me feel so calm and comfortable at both the trial and the day of. I would 1000% highly recommend her for both your wedding day hair and make up as she did a fabulous job! Thank you so much, Nicole!

Can’t recommend enough!!

I had such a wonderful experience working with Nicole for my wedding hair and makeup. She was incredibly kind, patient, and truly listened to what I wanted, which made the entire process feel easy and stress-free. Nicole knew exactly how to make my green eyes pop, and my hair and makeup turned out even better than I imagined. Everything lasted beautifully all day and night through the entire wedding. She was such a joy to work with and made me feel comfortable and confident throughout the process! Can’t recommend her highly enough!

Wedding day confidence

I was so glad I chose Nicole to do my hair and makeup. I read lots of reviews before choosing and looked at all the photos. Nicole is incredibly talented and is one of the kindest people you will ever meet. I had a couple of facials with her as well before the wedding. It feels like you've known her for years when you meet her. She listens to what you want and knows how to make it happen. My hair and makeup looked flawless, and I had total confidence on my wedding day.

Feel Your Best, Look Your Best!

Nicole is one of the sweetest and best people I’ve ever met! I have been seeing her for a little over a year now getting facials to prep for my wedding, and she also did my hair and makeup for my engagement photos as well as my wedding day. She is so sweet and has the best personality! She makes you feel beautiful even when you haven’t been feeling your best. I booked Nicole for my engagement shoot photos last year and she did a FABULOUS job where the makeup stayed even through a light rain! So I knew she was the one I wanted to make me feel my best on one of the most important day of my life! I signed up for the Bridal Bootcamp facials and they made ALL the difference for the big day! The makeup went on like butter and my skin was glowing the whole night! Nicole and Sylvia took care of my family the morning of my wedding, and their awesome personalities made everyone feel relaxed and excited for the day! Everyone’s hair and makeup looked AMAZING and everyone felt confident all night long! For me, I felt the most beautiful I have ever felt and you can tell in the photos because I just couldn’t stop smiling. If you want to feel and look your best, for your wedding, or any event, choose Nicole! Not only does she slay the beauty game, but her demeanor will out you at ease and she’ll hype you up!

And I still plan to keep coming back to her for facials because she’s the best. Love you Nicole!!

Wedding hair and makeup

Nicole was awesome for my wedding hair and makeup! She is really great at what she does. She is super nice and easy to work with. We changed my hair a little from the trial and it turned out amazing! It was exactly what I wanted. I really wanted natural glam makeup and she does a great job at this type of makeup. I definitely recommend her for wedding hair and makeup!

Nicole is the BEST!

Nicole did hair and makeup for me and my 7 bridesmaids for my fall 2024 wedding, and I was over the moon! Not only is she an amazing artist, but she is kind, personable, responsive and professional. I live in Arizona and she was very understanding and accommodating with my schedule when I came to town. She made us all look and feel our best! I would love to work with her again someday. Book her now!

Best makeup artist!

Nicole is the absolute best! I loved my bridal makeup and my bridesmaid and mom all felt so beautiful!! She pays very close attention to detail and we were all ready early. She is also an angel of a human and I felt so stress free the whole morning. I had friends after the wedding ask who did our makeup because they were all impressed by her magic! If you are looking for an amazing makeup artist look no further because you found her! I highly recommend Nicole!!

Makeup and hair perfection!

Nicole did an incredible job on my hair and bridal makeup as well as my mother’s makeup and bridesmaids hair. She was so easy to get ahold of and makeup and hair trial is included in your final cost. I never felt more beautiful! 100% book her!

The best hair and makeup for my wedding that I could ask for!

Nicole and her team were incredible to work with. From a personalized trial, to making my vision become a reality, she was so easy to work with and I'd highly recommend her to any future brides. My bridesmaids liked her so much they wanted to book her for their weddings after mine!

AMAZING! Highly recommend!

Nicole was amazing. As a woman who does not wear a lot of make up and has freckles that I did not want to be covered for my wedding day, it was very challenging to put my trust into a make up artist for my most special day. Nicole was FANTASTIC! She did a wonderful natural glam and was able to assure me prior to scheduling with her that she has a plan for make up routine.

I would happily work with her again and I highly recommend her services!

Top notch, flexible and so sweet!

Nicole made my day extra special! First off, she was beyond flexible. I had last minute people who wanted makeup and hair done and she made it happen with no complaints!
I was extra picky about my hair and although she did an amazing look at my trial, it wasn’t my vibe. She was so understanding and made my vision come to life on my wedding day!
My make up was EXACTLY what I envisioned. She really listens and takes her time.
All the little things matter, like taking staged pics of getting ready for the videographer and photographer. She goes the extra mile and is so sweet and caring!!!
She made me feel like an absolute princess and did such and amazing job. 15/10 would recommend!

Nicole is the best in the business

Nicole is an absolute dream to work with. She is kind, an excellent listener, and a master at her craft. She will make sure that you get exactly what you want on your wedding day. Nicole is incredibly easy to work with and made me feel stunning on my wedding day. Nicole also did my mom's hair and make up on my wedding day and she had never felt more beautiful. Not only is Nicole amazing with hair and make up, but she is also a master in skincare and taught me how to best prep my skin for the make up to look it's best. I would HIGHLY recommend Nicole, anyone would be lucky to work with her.

Hair & Make Up Artist

Long overdue revue! I can’t recommend Nicole enough! She was absolutely amazing! She took the time to make sure I liked the hair style and the make up choices. I don’t wear much make up generally and fully trusted her with each decision! I’ve already started recommending her to my friends who are engaged. She made me feel beautiful on my wedding day!

Nicole is amazing!

Nicole was amazing to work with! She was responsive at all times through the booking process and leading up to my wedding. I usually don’t wear a lot of makeup and for my wedding I wanted to find a makeup artist that would give me a natural glam and Nicole exceeded my expectations. My makeup and hair looked great in all my wedding pictures and so did my bridesmaids hair and makeup. Not only is Nicole great at what she does but she is super sweet!

Best hair and makeup vendor!!

Nicole is the best!! She does amazing work and is truly the sweetest person to work with. She listens to her clients and brings their vision to life. She arrived early on my big day and had my 4 bridesmaids, my mother and myself ready on time and all looking beautiful! She took the time to show my sister how to put in and take out my veil without messing up my hair. I also went to her before hand for a few facials and my skin looked amazing on my special day!! I cannot recommend her enough!!

Nicole is a GEM!

Nicole is an absolute GEM!!
Working with her leading up to my wedding and on my wedding day was such a pleasure. Nicole is not only incredibly talented, but she has the heart of a teacher. She taught me SO MUCH throughout my bridal bootcamp, from what types of facials would be the most beneficial to achieve my wedding day goals, to the types of skin care products that would work best for my skin long after the wedding was over. I started my skincare journey with her towards the end of 2022, and am still a loyal client over a year later! As for my wedding day look, we did a hair and makeup trial beforehand, and Nicole was super receptive to feedback and made all the changes I requested to make sure I felt my most beautiful self on the big day. Everyone in my bridal party who had their hair and makeup done by Nicole could not speak more highly of her as well.
Nicole is authentic, kind hearted, hard working, professional, and truly cares about her clients. I could not recommend her more!

Book with Nicole for your wedding!!

If there is one thing to take away from reading this long review I am about to write, let me just say BOOK NICOLE FOR YOUR WEDDING ASAP! First, she is the most genuine, sweetest person you will meet and want by your side for your wedding day. Secondly, a make-up artist and esthetician all in one? What more can you ask for? When I found Nicole’s business and past reviews from others, I knew I wanted her for my wedding day! I have always been insecure about my skin and wanted to feel my very best on my wedding day, which is exactly how I felt thanks to her! I did her Bridal Boot Camp package (do it you won’t regret it) and my skin was the best it ever looked and felt leading up to my wedding day. Not only did I love my make-up and look for my wedding day, but my 7 bridesmaids and my mother (yes she did all 9 of us by herself cause she is a rockstar) all loved their looks as well and could not say enough about Nicole as a make-up artist and person overall. We had the best time hanging out with her in our getting ready suite and she made each of us feel the most beautiful without overdoing it and not looking like ourselves. She can go as natural or glammed up as you request. Having my skin and make up look perfect was a top priority for my wedding and Nicole went above and beyond at every facial appointment and the week leading up to my wedding day to make sure we accomplished just that. BONUS**** She also does airbrush tanning and I last minute decided I wanted a little something extra to boost my overall look and we got my airbrush done with a trial before and the actual one two days before my wedding and I was so happy with that service as well! Nicole made me feel like the most beautiful bride and it really came across well because so many guests told me how beautiful I looked. Lastly, after my make up trial I decided to sleep in my make up (I know should never do this and I usually do not) but I wanted to see if it would stay all night long and let me tell ya, I woke up and my make up looked the same as when we applied it. On my actual wedding I did not have to touch up or check my make up at all, just reapplied some lipstick as my night went on feeling flawless thanks to her. She is a make-up magician and I love her! We keep regular facial appointments now. Book her!

Look no further!

Nicole was such a pleasure to work with for my wedding in Monterey. Even with the long trek from SF to Morgan Hill for my trial, it was so worth it! I was able to show her photos for my hair and make up. She was so knowledgeable about the reality of make up in a photo vs how it actually presents on your face. Who knew that Sofia Richie’s natural wedding look was more than meets the eye and required a make up artist to follow her around?? Nicole did! She also used make up suited for my dry skin (can’t say the same for my engagement picture MUA) and made sure to take notes for the day of. The make up never felt caked on and although I don’t wear much make up on a day to day basis, I loved it and did not feel overdone!! She is so easy to talk to and helped make my wedding morning feel more calm. She never seemed rushed or behind schedule (methodical schedule was all made ahead of time). She brought a second MUA (Silvia - who was also so sweet) with her and they worked well together (even though they have their own separate businesses). Everyone in my wedding party chose their desired hair and make up and they all looked beautiful (bridesmaids, MOB, and MOG)! My make up and hair looked great all day and she gave me tips for keeping everything looking amazing. She worked well with our wedding planner and other vendors and I was so glad to have found her (I think finding a good MUA was most stressful since everyone will see it)!! I really felt like a princess. Definitely recommend!!

Feeling gorgeous on my special day!

I’ve had MUA done by Nicole for my best friend’s wedding in September 2021 and worked with her on my wedding day in August 2023. Working with Nicole was such a delight and I’m so happy I still see her for my facials. When I started seeing Nicole in February 2023 she really helped me achieve my wedding glow before laying on any makeup. My makeup and hair held up so well on my big day (and even on my friend’s wedding day where it was super hot).
Whenever I would communicate with Nicole she was very responsive and professional. Nicole and her team did such an amazing job on my wedding day, all the bridesmaids loved their hair and makeup.

Nicole has a very positive attitude and it was so refreshing to work with her on my wedding day. I highly recommend working with her on your big day! I do recommend her facials as well, because those facials really helped me glow on my wedding day.

Wedding hair, makeup and skin care :-)

Nicole and her team did my hair and makeup for my wedding. I was lucky enough to do her bridal boot camp facials leading up to my big day and I was so happy with my skin on my wedding day. It was also fun getting to know her sweet personality and bonding over our fur babies in the months leading up to the wedding so that by the day of, it felt like I had another friend that was getting ready with me. She was flexible on timing, had my bridal party ready early, and was a fun addition to the big day. My whole bridal party loved their hair and makeup. I had recently had surgery leaving a scar on my neck. Nicole covered my scar with makeup to level that I felt comfortable. Huge thanks to Nicole, I felt the most beautiful I’d ever felt on my wedding day. Nicole was the best! I’ve already got her booked for my maternity photos as well. Thank you Nicole!!

Nicole was so amazing throughout the whole process for my wedding! She was so professional and made sure I was comfortable the whole time. She did a perfect job on my hair and makeup! Her assistant did a beautiful job on my bridesmaids as well! Couldn’t have asked for a better stylist for our big day ♥️

Amazing Makeup Artist!

Nicole is AMAZING! I hired Nicole for my bridal hair and makeup and she did such an incredible job! I've never felt more beautiful and my hair and makeup lasted the whole day. I showed her pictures of how I wanted my makeup and she did above and beyond. She is talented, professional, and so sweet! I will definitely be using her again for future events and will be recommending to my friends/family.

Nicole has done all of our family weddings! It’s a no brainer when one of us gets engaged we call her! Nicole is the best at what she does. She just knows how to make a bride comfortable and happy with the result. Her talent is unmatched. I can’t recommend her enough!

Book Nicole!

Nicole is an absolute dream to work with! She is so nice, very easy to talk to, and professional. The hair and makeup trials before the big day were helpful for me to share my ideas and to hear her suggestions for the look I was going for. Nicole made me feel comfortable and like myself on my wedding day. I am so glad that I found Nicole! Booking with her was the best decision ever for bridal hair and makeup. My hair and makeup looked so natural in all the photos and lasted all night. I will be booking with her for any future hair/makeup needs :)

Nicole was such an amazing person to work with! I was able to do a trial with her, were we narrowed down my look. She was attentive and listened to things I wanted to modify or change. Day of wedding, Nicole's calm demeanor helped me stay calm! All my bridesmaids loved their look as well! I highly recommend Nicole!

Nicole is the best!!

Nicole made me feel my absolute best, not only on my wedding day but leading up to it.

I did a few facials leading up to my wedding day and Nicole was so gentle and great at gauging what my skin needed to radiate.

When it came to my trial, she was able to take my inspo pics and not only come to life, but she was able to customize the looks to best enhance my features.

During the day of, she was so accommodating with scheduling. Her calmness really made the getting ready process stress free. Everyone in the wedding party, including my mom and MIL let me know they have never felt AND looked that good!

I would recommend Nicole for any of your hair, make up and skin care needs. Thank you Nicole!!

100% Recommend Nicole’s Vanity!

I cannot say enough about Nicole. I met her when I decided to have her do my makeup for my engagement photos and she did a fabulous job. At that point I decided I needed her to do my makeup for my wedding as well as my bridal parties makeup. I saw her ever 4-6 weeks like clockwork for almost a year leading up to my wedding getting facials and skin care tips from her. By the time my wedding came along my skin was no filter or heavy foundation needed! I was so happy with her services for my wedding, we all felt so beautiful! I will be continuing to see Nicole for my monthly facials… she is a must for all your wedding prep ladies! It’s 6 months after my wedding and Nicole is STILL a go to on my self care routine… see her- be hooked! My skin has never looked better. Plus she is so sweet!

Highly recommend!

Guys, seriously, save some time, stress, and possible tears by booking Nicole lol! First things first, the hair and makeup she did for myself and my bridesmaids looked so good, I just cannot thank her enough. I was never a makeup person, but she somehow just knew exactly what I wanted the day of the trial and made sure I was still just as show-stopping as ever on my wedding day!! And my hair... *chef's kiss* lol. Also, Nicole is just a fantastic person to work with--she communicates well, she's punctual, skillful, super fun and friendly, and she made me feel uber glowed up on my wedding day (my skin was FAH-LAWLESS thanks to her kind advice months before the wedding). All in all, I had a blast working with her and her amazing assistant and I'll continue to recommend her to anyone forever! Thanks Nicole!

Nicole made me beautiful!

Nicole is a true artist. She made me feel absolutely stunning. She was also very flexible when some of my bridesmaids and family members wanted to have her do their beauty, too. In fact, she was ahead of schedule on wedding day. She's also super fun to talk to and time in her chair flew by! You won't regret working with Nicole.

My favorite wedding vendor

Working with Nicole was a dream! She was my favorite wedding vendor. I found her on instagram and loved her natural glam style. She was also very affordable compared to other bay area artists. We did my makeup trial the day of our engagement shoot and my hair trial a few months later. I struggled with my hair choice and didn't love my trial. On my wedding day, Nicole took my feedback and made my hair look amazing. She is so positive and fun to talk to. All of my bridesmaids LOVED their makeup. Nicole brought Silvia along to do their hair and Silvia was extremely detailed. Everyone looked amazing! I would recommend Nicole to all brides out there who want to glow on their their wedding day.

Nicole is Amazing!!

Best decision ever to have Nicole part of my big day! Not only is she the sweetest person ever! But I had 10 bridesmaids plus myself and my mother and every single one of us felt absolutely beautiful! She is extremely friendly, on time, communicated throughout the planning and Covid rescheduling. Also bery important, the makeup stayed all night long!

Stress free experience

I had never gotten my hair or makeup done before and Nicole immediately put me at ease. She was so professional and personable. The trial was so amazing, which helped me start my wedding day morning without any worries on if I would like my hair and makeup. My hair and makeup lasted all day on my wedding day and I was so sad when I had to take it off.

Great experience

Nicole was great I gave her some ideas of what I wanted done with hair and makeup before the first appointment. Then, she took my ideas and made them even better! The test appointment for the wedding makeup was great and she convinced me to do lashes. I never wore them before. I was so happy I did that. My makeup looked fresh and clean just the way I wanted. She was so nice and patient with me on the big day.

Perfectly Captured my Vision

Nicole did an AMAZING job on my hair and makeup (and the makeup of a couple of my bridesmaids) for my wedding. I rarely wear makeup or get my hair professionally done, so I wanted to look polished but natural. She perfectly captured what I was hoping for and made me feel so confident and beautiful. On her website, she also has pictures of very glam wedding looks that she’s done, so she is great at listening to your vision/looking at examples of what you’re going for and recreating your dream look. My wedding day went by so fast, but I’ll always have the pictures to put in an album and on my walls, so it was really important to me to have hair and makeup that I was happy with and would forever be captured in those photos. Along with being great at what she does, Nicole was such a fun, friendly person to start the day off with me and my bridesmaids, which was also important to me to start the day off with good vibes. Highly recommend Nicole!

100% would recommend!

Nicole was so sweet and did a fantastic job on my wedding hair and makeup! She was very responsive and accommodating during our wedding rescheduling due to the pandemic and let me set up a second trial when I changed my mind on hair style. I was happy after the trial but even more thrilled how it all actually turned out on the wedding day and photographed so well! My bridal party also looked beautiful and was very happy.

Wonderful Makeup Artist!

Nicole is wonderful! We got married in 2021 and had to change dates due to COVID. Nicole ended up doing makeup for both my engagement shoot and for my bridal party and moms on our wedding day. Not only does she do a wonderful job creating looks for each person, but she is a fun and calming presence to be with through planning and on the big day! I can't wait to have another opportunity to work with Nicole in the future.

You won’t regret hiring Nicole!

Nicole is the BEST and was one of my favorite wedding vendors! I got so many compliments on my hair and makeup, and I felt that I had a glow all day long. My hair and makeup did last the ENTIRE day, even through dancing all night long, and I got married outdoors on a hot sunny day. Also, I could tell during our trial that she can put together any look that you want with ease. My bridal party was super happy too. I also have to note that she was super responsive and easy to communicate with during the pandemic, and being that I had two postpone twice, her responsiveness helped alleviate my stress. To summarize, you won’t regret hiring Nicole to do your bridal hair and makeup!

Amazing makeup and hair artist!

Nicole was amazing! She set a time for us to do a trial she listened to what I wanted and helped me feel the most beautiful on my special day! She even helped do my mom and grandmothers hair and make up! My favorite thing about Nicole is she will do your makeup so you still look like a human and natural which is what I wanted!

Amazing!

I could write a novel full of positive things to say about Nicole. She did my hair and make up for my bridal shower, and my wedding. She was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! She was on time, friendly, flexible, fun, the make up quality and her talent was out of this world!!! 10000/10000. I will be using Nicole’s talents for every event from here on out. She was able to actually do something beautiful with the mane on my head, and she made all of my girls look absolutely radiant 💕

Nicole was so easy to work with and was super accommodating as I ended up needing to have more make up and hair services for family members than I initially thought. She’s so SO sweet and easy to talk to, and my wedding hair & makeup was perfect. I would definitely recommend her again!!

Covid Weddings

Nicole is the biggest sweetheart to work with! Had the pleasure of working with her during pandemic times. Like many brides we had to go through many changes to our schedule and postponements. Nicole was always very responsive and patient with all my many questions. She also is very attentive to detail and willing to make changes to makeup and hair based on your preferences. Thank you Nicole for everything! You made me feel so beautiful on our big day

Aside Nicole being amazing at the hair and makeup that she does (which is why I initially picked her), she is the perfect wedding vibe! She is the kind of hype woman you need on wedding day! You will not be disappointed. I kept looking at my bridal party thinking how effortlessly gorgeous she made everyone look! Thanks Nicole! 🥰

Loved having Nicole as my hair & makeup artist!

Nicole was absolutely amazing! I had to reschedule my wedding a couple times due to COVID, & Nicole was so willing to work with me through it - she was flexible and always very kind throughout the planning process and leading up to the wedding. The day-of, she arrived on time and was very organized! She was so sweet to my family/ bridal party, very patient and accommodating with everyone, and even helped my mom apply her lashes (although she wasn’t part of the bridal party). She did makeup and hair for myself, as well as my two sisters and sister in law. Everyone was so happy with their looks. Nicole’s makeup and hair skill are just amazing! I was completely happy with it and it turned out even better than expected. She is really great at listening to what you truly want in your look and making adjustments as needed - I came with a couple photos and suggestions the day of my wedding (that differed a bit from what was discussed at the makeup trial) and she was able to make slight adjustments, complete the look, & make me feel so satisfied and confident on my big day! Not to mention, my makeup and hair stayed in tact the whole night! Everything was perfect and I cannot wait for the next opportunity to get my makeup/ hair done by Nicole again!

September Wedding

Nicole is absolutely amazing!! She did my makeup for my wedding and people would not stop completing me about it. Nicole also did my hair for my recent holiday party and it came out exactly as how I imagined it. She’s so great at communicating and making sure you got exactly what you wanted. You’ll honestly feel as if you known her for your entire life by how welcoming she is. Nicole is a rockstar!

Amazing Make-up Artist!!!

Nicole was so kind, talented and professional. She contacted me as soon as I booked her to ask me about what type of look I wanted for the wedding and reception party the next day. I sent her several photos as well as the outfits I was wearing and she helped me decide what would look best with my facial features. Prior to the events, she showed up right on time and was such a pleasure to chat with while I was getting my make-up done! I was so incredibly happy with how my make-up turned out for both events! I will definitely be recommending her to friends and family!

Obsessed with my Bridal hair/makup

Loved working with Nicole! On my wedding day I changed my hair & makeup look from what we did during the trial & it came out perfect! Nicole was super easy going & I'm so happy she made my Bridal glam come to life. I had a group of (6) ladies of all ages, and everyone loved their glam. Nicole & Silvia (Another stylist who came with Nicole) was on time & kept on schedule. So happy with services. Thank you!

Nicole did my hair and makeup (plus moms' and bridesmaids' makeup) and her associate Silvia did the wedding party's hair for the day of. They were lovely to work with and listened to what we wanted. Everyone looked fabulous and the hair and makeup highlighted everyone's best features. I really appreciated them working with our tight timeline and flexibility with last-minute changes.

Nicole was such a pleasure to work with. She's extremely talented, smart and sweet. I originally planned a low bun, then changed my mind to a half down half up do on my wedding date. Thankfully Nicole didn't seem to mind one bit! I truly felt like a princess on my wedding day.

The Perfect Choice for Hair & Makeup!

Nicole was the absolutely best choice for hair and make-up for my daughters wedding at Testarossa Winery this past January. We had many recommendations from friends and colleagues and scheduled a few appointments. Nicole was our first and as we were walking back to our car my daughter said "she's the one"! Nicole made my daughter feel so comfortable and understood exactly what she wanted to look like on her big day.
The wedding party was diverse with skin tones going from very pale to very dark and she did an amazing job on everyone with both hair and makeup.
Nicole listened to each girl and totally delivered the look each was looking for and made sure we all blended in our own way.
Weddings are stressful and Nicole made the make up and hair a stress free part of the whole experience. She listened carefully to each girl, made us all laugh which we needed and got everyone done exactly on time. She is down to earth and an expert in her field. You will be extremely happy you chose her!

Miracle worker

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicole and the amazing job she did on my hair and make-up for my wedding! Due to the craziness of COVID, I ended up reaching out to her last minute and even under those conditions she still fit me in for a trial and drove out to my wedding venue no problem—she took care of me as well as my other bridesmaids! I previously had another person do a hair and make-up trial and didn’t like it because I felt like I looked “too much” or just not myself, so I was worried when I reached out to another person. Nicole exceeded my expectations and was a MIRACLE WORKER!! She made me feel the way all brides long to feel—BEAUTIFUL, like a princess, like me just the best version of me. My make-up was just right—just enough but not too much and it lasted all day like a champ. O and my hair—I was obsessed with my curls and updo she did—extensions and all! She worked with me to find what was just right.

And on top of that her personal kindness and care created such a wonderful environment on my wedding day and along the whole process. She is warm and friendly, professional yet comfortable—she was timely, clean, accommodating, and personal. Even during the stress of the day she was such a calming containing presence and made me feel like she really cared about me. She truly is so talented, and it was a BLESSING for her to share that with me and those I love on my special day. She is a gift to all brides she comes alongside, and I recommend her to all!

Amazing!

Nicole is absolutely AMAZING!!! I had originally booked Nicole for my wedding in 03/2020 but then COVID hit and I had to reschedule. Nicole was super flexible and was quick to respond to all texts/emails. We ended up having our wedding on 10/23/2020. She wore a mask and/or face shield the entire time and was constantly washing her hands to ensure a safe and clean working environment. Both myself and my mom got our hair and makeup done and were so pleased with the results! Everything stayed put the entire day and we received so many compliments. Nicole was very attentive to what I wanted and was constantly checking to make sure I was comfortable and happy with the progress. She is so nice and easy to talk to. I cannot say enough great things about her. I look forward to working with her again in the future. Thank you Nicole!!!!

I requested Nicole to do bridal hair and makeup for my wedding. She promptly responded that she had another wedding to service later that afternoon but would be willing to help with makeup in the morning and could coordinate with her hairstylist friend to ensure all the services were provided. She coordinated everything and was extremely helpful, responsive, and flexible.

Friendly and high quality!

I loved having Nicole do my wedding makeup. During the trial, she was able to make the exact look that I showed her in photos. Then she recreated it again for the wedding! I felt so beautiful :) I don't wear a lot of makeup usually so I appreciated how good she was at explaining what she was doing. She was friendly and fun to be around the whole time and was a great addition to my wedding morning fun. She also did the makeup for the moms and some bridesmaids and everyone was happy.

Wedding makeup

My bridesmaids and I all LOVED Nicole! From my first interaction with her, she was so responsive and always so upbeat and positive. I was immediately comfortable with her from my makeup trial and trusted her with my makeup fully, when I’m usually very particular about it. She was able to make my makeup so natural but glamorous also. All of my bridesmaids, my mom, and my mother in law were so thrilled with their makeup done by Nicole. She made an effort to get to know every single one of us while doing all of our makeup flawlessly. You’re the best, Nicole!!

I cannot give enough praise to Nicole! From the moment you book with her, to the moment she leaves your venue, everything is seamless. I felt like the most beautiful bride in the entire world, and not only loved what she did for me, but I was absolutely in love with ALL of my bridesmaid's makeup as well (as were they)! If you are hoping to feel and look your best on your wedding day, or for whatever the occasion may be, Nicole is your girl!

Thank you, Nicole!!!

You'll Love Nicole!

I am SO happy I chose Nicole to provide my bridal makeup for my wedding a couple weeks ago! Everyone in my bridal party loved how sweet she was and felt so confident in their looks. She was very easy to work with and communicative and reachable throughout the planning process. I was extremely happy with my makeup - it was a perfect balance of feeling a bit glam but still looking like myself. I would book her again and again! (And have even been back to visit her for a facial).

Amazing, spectacular and friendly

I am absolutely blessed to have Nicole as my cousin-in-law! When I had my make-up and hair trial, she made me feel comfortable and welcomed. We definitely had a similar taste in simplicity which worked out because she was able to find the look I was searching for. I showed her pictures I saved on pinterest which helped her see what I liked. On the day of the wedding Nicole did my mom's hair and make up, and my mom definitely felt at ease with her despite not having a trial. When it was my turn, we were able to talk about how I was feeling (nervous and excited!) to talking about the Backstreet Boys Concert. I absolutely recommend Nicole for being incredibly down to earth, professional, and knowing what look you're trying to capture for your big day!

Exactly what I'd hoped to find, plus more.

So very grateful to have had Nicole along for hair/makeup on my wedding day. I'm from out of state, so had to select my vendors and plan the wedding from afar. Nicole was so easy to work with, even planning a last-minute trial the day I arrived in California, only two days before my wedding.

She is professional, does incredible work, and she is so, so kind. She provided such a calming presence on my wedding day. So fortunate to have worked with her! Highly recommend.

She made she to pay attention to detail, especially during my trial. She listens to what you want and does everything she can to make sure you feel and look your best on your day.

Excellent service and easy to work with

My experience with Nicole was only positive and professional. The trial was a few months before my wedding so we had time to make any changes if necessary. At the trial she listened to my preferences and was able to create a look that corresponded with what I wanted. I do not have a lot of experience with make-up or weddings so I relied on Nicole to know what would work best with the style of the wedding and on my face. She also demonstrated that she has a deep understanding of various styles, face shapes, and skin types by doing my bridesmaid’s make-up. My girls loved her work as much as I did.

I will recommend her to anyone who is looking for make-up for their wedding.

Wonderful experience

I had my makeup done by Nicole for the big day and she was wonderful to work with! She explained every step of the process during the trial and, as a person who had her makeup professionally done only 1 time prior to the trial, that was very comforting. She also made sure to ask about my typical makeup usage and what I was looking for and comfortable with as far as makeup types and coverage. Overall, very easy to work with, listened to my concerns and requests, has reasonable pricing and is a genuinely nice person. My makeup was exactly what I was looking for, thanks Nicole!

Absolutely the best for wedding hair and makeup

With only 7 weeks for wedding planning, finding Nicole was a blessing. She squeezed me in between 2 other people and did a fabulous job for this “mature” bride. Not only are her hair and makeup skills on point, she is also a kind person, great with communication and timely. I highly recommend Nicole for your special day!

AMAZING bridal makeup experience

I first had my makeup done by Nicole for my sisters wedding last year and that pretty much sealed the deal that I needed her for my wedding! She is amazing, such a talented artist as makes you feel so comfortable! She absolutely understands how to make a brides natural beauty shine, while giving you the glam you deserve on your wedding day and I couldn't recommend her more to all the future brides out there!

Gorgeous makeup

Nicole does such great work! Not only is she super friendly and makes you feel as though you have been friends for awhile, but she is amazing at what she does. She listens to what you are going for, yet is able to play up features that you might not have thought of. She makes sure that you, and your skin, are comfortable and love the makeup she does. I would love to work with her again!

Best makeup ever

Where do I even begin? Nicole did my makeup for my engagement photos and wedding and both turned out perfect! Besides being incredibly talented, Nicole is kind, warm and the kind of person you want around you on your big day! She made me feel so comfortable every step of the way, and also dealt with my endless texts and questions about changing lip colors, etc. When I wanted to try a different look for my eye makeup, she fit me in for a quick session just to make sure it was just right for my big day! She also did makeup for my 5 bridesmaids, and everyone loved their look! If you are looking for gorgeous makeup from someone who is beautiful inside and out, Nicole is your girl! I hope to be able to get my makeup done again in the future :)

Awesome makeup artist!

Nicole did my makeup for my bridal shower, and I plan to hire her for future makeup services! She was so sweet and professional from our very first interaction over email, to the day of. I felt like I was just chatting with an old girlfriend who just happened to be doing bomb makeup on me! I got endless compliments at my shower, and felt beautiful all day long (attended a holiday party later in the evening too). Thank you Nicole!!!

Thank you Nicole!

Nicole is incredible. She is such a talented and knowledgeable makeup artist and hair stylist. She did my wedding make-up, and I could not have been happier! She had great suggestions for a style that would suit my dream look. She also did my sister's make-up and did the hair styles for 3 of my bridesmaids. My bridesmaids requested complicated Kate Middleton styles, and she totally nailed all of them! Everyone was giving us compliments on hair and makeup throughout the day.

Not only is she excellent at her job, but she also has an amazing personality. She made me feel so comfortable asking questions and making requests. She is sweet and calm, and all of my bridesmaids loved her.

I am so lucky to have had Nicole as my wedding makeup artist. Thank you Nicole!

My favorite wedding vendor

This review is long overdue. Nicole did my wedding make up last month. It was phenomenal!! After the wedding, we were having two after parties, so I stopped at my hotel suite thinking I should probably check and touch up my make up. When I looked in the mirror, it was exactly how it looked when I walked down the aisle almost 6 hours before(even after dancing up a storm). I didn't have to do a thing. The party went until 3 am and I hated to wash my face for bed. 😂 She also did some of my friend's make up and they looked so beautiful. One of them is getting married next year and wants to use Nicole as well. Of all the many vendors I had for my wedding, Nicole was by far, my favorite. Her personality was so lovely and calming, which really was a blessing during some pre-ceremony venue related stress. She is very special and I can't wait to have another occasion to have her do my make up. My video and photos could not have come out more perfect thanks to Nicole.💜

She did an awesome job making myself and my girls all glammed up and pretty on my special day last Nov 11. She was very professional, knowledgeable and fun to work with. All my family and guests were so impressed with our make up that they kept asking who did it. I didnt have any retouch and my make up lasted till the end of the wedding despite all the crying. I highly recommend her! Thanks again Nicole!

I highly recommend Nicole! She was so professional, fun, and was able to bring my make up vision to life for not only myself but all of my friends and family. This was so important as she was doing all of our make up for my big day, my wedding day! If you’ve been a bride before you know how important it is to not have to worry about this. Please use Nicole—you will not be disappointed.

Needed a last minute hair and makeup artist for the next morning and so glad I found Nicole! She was super flexible and understanding of my plans for the day of the ceremony. She listens to you and will make sure you look amazing on your special day. Very professional, fair rates, and went above and beyond my expectations!

Excellent MUA for Weddings/ parties and more!

Nicole is the best make-up artist for your special day. She has a natural style that was perfect for my wedding. She was super accommodating- I had a v large bridal party of about 8 and she was able to complete all of us before noon. She is timely, professional, friendly, and does a great job. I researched MUA's for my wedding and most of them were super expensive. Nicole is super fair on pricing and is phenomenal in skill. I highly recommend her for any bride looking for a MUA on her special day. Thanks, Nicole!

Nicole is the best!

Nicole is the absolute best! I worked with her when I was a bridesmaid in a friends' wedding and again for my own engagement photos and wedding. She is a very talented MUA and takes into account your personal preferences. Since I don't wear makeup often, I loved that she was able to make me up in a natural way that enhanced my features. The makeup also lasted all day (12+ hours) without feeling heavy. Not to mention she is very sweet, fun, and easy to work with (very responsible and flexible) :) I would recommend her to anyone in need of an excellent MUA in the bay area!

Such a talented makeup artist

Nicole was absolutely amazing. She is so incredibly talented and was able to make all my bridesmaids feel so beautiful. I was amazed at her ability to recognize everyone’s features and coloring and give everyone a look that suited them best.

In addition to her amazing makeup skills, she is one of the sweetest people and so fun to talk to. Her presence and demeanor was exactly what every bride would want on her wedding day (happy, kind, calm, efficient, etc.) Absolutely loved having Nicole be a part of our wedding, and would recommend her to everyone I know.

I highly recommend Nicole to all of my friends and family. She did my bridal makeup and the makeup for everyone in my bridal party and everyone looked stunning and was so happy with their look. Plus the makeup looked incredible in pictures and lasted all night! She is extremely professional, easy to get in touch with and so sweet. She takes the time to talk to you about what you are looking for and explains what she was doing the entire time so if anyone had questions or concerns she could address it and change anything so that you are completely satisfied with your look.

Nicole was such a friendly and calming presence on my wedding morning and I could not be more happy with how my wedding look turned out!

Nicki was truly amazing. Not only is she a true artist, but she is also sweet and incredibly knowledgeable. Getting a hold of her was easy and she was willing to adjust our day of schedule last minute when I was dealing with issues. Everyone of my bridesmaids and my mom looked beautiful and their makeup complemented their differing skin tones and features. She took the time to explain what she was doing the entire time so if anyone had questions or concerns she could address it and change anything. At the end of the night I didn’t want to take my makeup off because of how amazing it looked! My only wish is that I lived closer to the Bay Area so I could go to Nicole for all special occasions! Signing with Nicole will be the best decision you make for your special day, she is such a lovely person and truly gifted in what she does!

Nicole is the best of the best. She is extremely professional and is also one of the most caring artists out there. She takes great pride in her work and will make sure that you are completely satisfied with your look. I have known her for over 7 years and had the privilege of having her do my bridal makeup. As usual she exceeded expectations. All of my bridesmaids looked stunning and I felt amazing. I highly recommend Nicole to anyone looking for a memorable wedding day and not having to worry about anything pertaining to makeup because she's got you covered!

I am SO happy that I chose to work with Nicole's Vanity for my July 2016 wedding. Finding a professional and expert make-up artist was very important to me. Nicole is not just this, but she is also SO nice! Before the wedding, Nicole wanted to schedule a make-up trial. She was beyond understanding when I had to postpone two hours before due to illness, and was willing to schedule a new date right away. At the trial, Nicole talked with me about the look I was going for, and was more than willing to try different shades of lipstick, more or less lashes, etc. until I had the look that I truly wanted. I left knowing I had made the best choice! Our big day arrived, and Nicole did an amazing job with the make-up of 6 of my bridesmaids, my mother, and myself. It was a big group, but she tackled it professionally and happily. You will not be disappointed in choosing Nicole's Vanity!

Nicole was a blessing to work with! Before I even had my trial, I saw that she did eyebrows and was ecstatic to go to her to fix what I'd been ignoring for the better part of my adult life. She's awesome at that, but that's a separate review altogether! The trial went phenomenally, she gave me suggestions on what to pick up for the day of the wedding (with my extreme lack of makeup knowledge, I really needed help with that one), was incredibly patient with my inability to make decisions, enthusiastic about ideas I would send for semi-off-the-wall bridal party looks, and was so incredibly kind and sweet through it all. She even suggested a phenomenal hair artist that she works very well with, and having them as a team the day of the wedding was amazing! As far as the make-up goes, all of us LOVED our looks, and I kept trying to find reasons to touch it up (with the stuff I bought JUST for the wedding reception), but the look never wavered, even after hours of dancing and cracking up at the reception! My bridesmaids were thoroughly impressed with how well it stayed through the night! I'm upset that I no longer live in the Bay Area and can't continue to go to Nicole for eyebrows, however I'm so glad we found her for the wedding! She was such a pleasure to work with and absolutely amazing at what she does!

Nicole did makeup for my wedding, she was absolutely amazing! I had done a makeup trial with another artist and hated the way my makeup was done. I got Nicole's info from a friend and did a trial with her and was so happy with the way she did my makeup. She made me feel comfortable with being able to tell her what I wanted to look like and what things I didn't like. She is very good at what she does and very easy to get along with, she did makeup for two of my bridesmaids and they looked beautiful. I am so happy I found her, I will always use her for future events and I highly recommend her services!

Nicole was amazing to work with - to sum it up, I'm very happy I booked her for my bridal makeup.

Nicole was always available when I needed her and she replied quickly to all my emails. I loved that about her - huge plus when you're planning your own wedding! And, it was a huge relief since I had a ton of questions and concerns due to my skin allergy and lack of makeup knowledge. Nicole was amazing - she nailed our trial session and even accommodated my eye allergy by having a non latex adhesive for my false lashes. It was the best feeling waking up the day after the wedding and not having puffy eyes. So glad the adhesive glue she used for the false lashes worked!

I loved having her around on my special day. She arrived on time, was super calm, smiling the entire time and was very professional. Exactly the kind of energy you want to be around on your big day. For our wedding, I hired her for touch ups which required her to be at 3 different locations. She had no problem accommodating and I honestly felt like I had another sister around (she was that awesome!).

My makeup the day of was perfection! I knew it was a hit when I did a First Look with my Dad and he specifically commented on my makeup. That's huge coming from my dad. It meant it was just enough makeup for a plain jane :) And looking at the photos that I've seen so far, i loved the makeup. I felt like it was ME in the photos and I didn't look over-the-top or too heavy. It was exactly what I was hoping to have on my wedding day.

Nicole's quality customer service and talent definitely contributed to the success of our wedding. I felt so beautiful and was so relaxed getting ready. Thank you, Nicole. Can't wait to hire you again!

Nicole was honestly the most perfect addition to the getting ready process of my wedding day! She is so sweet and personable, I felt like I had known her forever. She is beyond amazing at makeup and she truly wants every bride to be more than happy with their wedding day makeup. Everyone in my bridal party looked flawless! She definitely made my wedding day even more perfect than I was expecting! It is so nice to be welcomed in the morning with such positivity, sweetness, and professionalism. I can't thank Nicole enough for making me so happy with my makeup! I definitely recommend her for anyone looking for an amazing makeup artist.

Nicole is the whole package!! Not only is she one of the sweetest people I have ever meet, she is extremely talented and professional. She made sure that you are not allergic to any products before beginning. Not only does she listen to what you want/need, but she understands 100%. I love that she checks in with you multiple times throughout the process to make sure you like the style, and colors. I recommend Nicole's Vanity 250%!

Nicole was amazing! I'm not a makeup person and have never put on this much makeup in my life, so having someone who really knew what they were talking about was great! She listened to all my concerns about it not staying on and more importantly, still looking like myself! She made sure that I still looked like me, just with decoration. The eye shadow was visible but subtle, she used individual lashes for the fake eye lashes rather than the enormous clunky strips that I was afraid of, and she did very subtle contouring to just emphasize what was there rather than trying to change my face shape. The result was amazing and it felt so light I hardly noticed I was wearing any.
