    Shenoa is truly the best!

    Shenoa is a dream! As a bride who would generally say I wear and know quite a bit about makeup, I was worried I wasn’t going to find a MUA that I was comfortable with, but Shenoa was it. She was so calm, patient and understanding with my requests (we had a three hour trial because I switched the type of lashes I wanted twice), and is honestly the kindest soul. She was communicative about pricing and expectations, and truly listened to what I, and all of my bridesmaids, my mom and my husband’s mom wanted and didn’t want on wedding day, and absolutely delivered. I felt completely at ease the morning of my wedding because I fully trusted Shenoa with my vision. We got so many compliments on our makeup from everyone at our wedding and I’m so grateful to her for making us feel so beautiful! I would 10/10 recommend Shenoa to any bride! You will LOVE her!

    Awesome Wedding Makeup!

    Shenoa was incredible to work with for my wedding on June 4th, 2022! I hired her to do makeup for myself, my 5 bridesmaids and 3 family members and everyone looked incredible! I told her that I mostly wanted everyone to look more on the natural side, not over done, and she did exactly that! She is also a very kind and gentle person and has a calming presence, which was exactly what I needed on my wedding day. If you need a makeup artist, look no further than Shenoa!

    Beautiful makeup

    Shenoa is an incredibly talented makeup artist, professional and kind/ just lovely to be around. She did an amazing job on my makeup and the rest of my sizable bridal party. She really took her time, but also finished right on schedule. Everyone looked beautiful-- she did a great job of listening to what people wanted. I loved my makeup and it lasted all night. Couldn't recommend her more highly.

    The best makeup artist ever!

    Shenoa did my makeup for my wedding and I couldn't have asked for anyone better! I found her through a friend and am so happy I did. I am someone who loves makeup and having to pick a makeup artist based off instagram photos or website photos is kind of tough, just because everyones skin/makeup styles are different. After seeing Shenoas work in person at my friends wedding, I knew she would be the perfect fit. She made me look flawless on my wedding day as well as all of my bridesmaids and mothers! I gave her a photo of what I was looking for and she brought it to life. And she is the sweetest person ever. Seriously book Shenoa NOW for your makeup needs. I can't wait to use her again for something, I will find an excuse!

    Best Ever Makeup Artist!

    Shenoa is very professional! She took her time with everyone in the Bridal Party and especially our Bride to be! She is not only talented at her profession. but also very sweet! She is the one to book for your special occasions. We LOVED her! We would hire her for any event we ever do again and I would highly recommend her.

    Wedding Day Makeup

    Shenoa does absolutely amazing work. Starting with the makeup trial for my wedding she immediately made me feel so comfortable and listened to my ideas on the type of look that I wanted, all while making suggestions on what may work best for my features. I couldn't have been any happier with the work she did on my wedding day. She made me feel so confident and beautiful! Some of my bridesmaids even added on makeup services the day of the wedding because they saw how great a job Shenoa does. I would definitely use her makeup services again for future events!

    The absolute best!

    Shenoa did my bridal makeup and my bridesmaids makeup for my wedding and I cannot say enough great things about her! Everyone looked stunning and loved their looks. My wedding party makeup requests ranged from simple/natural to glam and she was able to do it all exceptionally! She is so sweet and was great to work with. Hire her you won’t regret it!!

    Excellent!!

    Shenoa is extremely talented at what she does! On top of that, she’s super kind and flexible as well. I booked her for both my engagement shoot and wedding. I would highly recommend her to any bride!!! Could not share enough positives about our experience with her.

    Shenoa listens

    One of Shenoa's best qualities as a makeup artist is her ability to listen to what you are looking forward and create a look that makes you feel both comfortable and confident. She also has an amazing ability to highlight your best features. She did my the makeup for my bridesmaids and they all kept saying what a magnificent job she did and it was the best their makeup has ever looked. She is such a sweet and patient person and really cares that you are happy and look your best. Definitely hire her!

    A Pleasure to Work With!

    Shenoa was an absolute pleasure to work with! Hiring her was one of the first (and best!) decisions I made while wedding planning. Flawless makeup was a must for my wedding day and I had peace of mind knowing that Shenoa would deliver spectacular results. She took time and care to ensure that my vision for the day was achieved and created a look that was not only looked beautiful but was also able to withstand many hours, lots of happy tears, dancing the night away and the after party! Shenoa has a lovely personality to go with her professional spirit and is passionate about her work and client satisfaction. If you’re thinking about hiring her, go for it – but book early because she is in demand! Highly recommended.

    Bridal Makeup

    SHENOA IS AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I stressed for months over finding my MUA for my November wedding. As soon as I met Shenoa, I knew she was my person. We played around with a few different looks at my trial and had a blast making adjustments to find my right look (I don't usually wear much makeup so I wasn't sure what I wanted until I saw it). There were a few things I knew I wanted. "Glowing", "look like myself but better", "no cake face", "glam", etc. I'm not kidding, all throughout the night people were using those *exact* phrases and words to describe how much they loved my makeup. That's just a testament to how great Shenoa is at making your vision a reality. She hits the nail on the head Every. Single. Time. If you're not sure who to trust in this industry, trust Shenoa and do yourself a favor and HIRE HER!!!

    I LOVED working with Shenoa!

    The makeup that Shenoa did for my bridesmaids and I looked AMAZING! My makeup has never looked so beautiful and it stayed on all night. My friends have all asked for her information for their upcoming weddings! Not only is she great at doing makeup, but Shenoa is so fun and easy going. Cannot recommend her enough!

    Amazing experience

    Shenoa and her assistant did an amazing job doing the makeup for my wedding. My bridesmaids raved about their makeup and everyone (my mom and mother-in-law included) was extremely happy with how they looked. To me, the best part was that everyone looked like themselves that day--just the most beautiful, put together versions! I LOVED my wedding makeup and it stayed on the entire night, even through lots of sweaty dancing!

    Shenoa was so sweet and calm throughout the day, and her positive energy made the whole getting ready experience even better. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a makeup artist!

    Shenoa is a Miracle Worker!

    Shenoa is a goshdarn miracle worker and made me look like a dream on my wedding day. She is also hilarious and has the most positive attitude, so hanging out with her on my wedding day was just like hanging out with one of my closest friends. She did an amazing job with my bridesmaids and the moms and everyone was just so happy with how they looked. Highly recommend!

    Phenomenal!!

    Working with Shenoa was absolutely a dream—she was so dedicated to making sure everything was perfect both during my trial and on my wedding day. She took her time with each of my Bridesmaids and offered thoughtful suggestions about which looks she recommended. She is so professional and easy going and she truly just added to the fun and excitement of getting ready on my wedding day. I cannot say enough nice things about Shenoa as a person and as a talented makeup artist!

    One of my absolute favorite vendors!

    I cannot recommend Shenoa enough. Out of the many vendors I had for my wedding day, Shenoa was one of my absolute favorites. As a wedding vendor, she was everything you could want in a professional. She was extremely responsive and flexible, and made sure I felt ready and comfortable for my wedding day. I had a complicated multi-day, double ceremony wedding and Shenoa was there and ready for every part of it. She was also an absolute pleasure to be around. She was so sweet, so funny, and instantly made you feel like a friend. As a makeup artist, I cannot say enough about her talent and magic! She listened to what I was looking for and executed it better than I could have imagined. I felt incredibly beautiful, and months later I still have people commenting on how I looked on my wedding day, and that was all thanks to Shenoa. I also really appreciated that I was able to freely tell her when I wanted something a bit different and she never took it personally, but rather tirelessly worked to create what I was looking for. Future brides, book Shenoa immediately. Her professionalism, personality, and talent are unmatched. I'm already looking forward to the next event where I can book Shenoa!

    You just found your makeup artist

    Shenoa IS amazing! I have been following her on Instagram for the last few years. When I first saw her work, I thought when "that day" comes when I get engaged, I'm booking her to do my makeup. She is the sweetest, down to earth person and really listens to what you want. I love her dramatic but soft looks that she gave me and my girls. It was everything I wanted and more. THANK YOU AGAIN for making me feel and look beautiful (and my girls) on my wedding day!

    Highly Recommend!

    Working with Shenoa was an absolute joy! From the beginning when we did my trial, she was so patient and flexible- she really listened to what I wanted and worked until my dream look was perfected! On the day of the wedding, Shenoa arrived early and was calm/amenable. She made us all feel relaxed and calm as well! Our makeup was perfect and it lasted the whole night- I received so many compliments on my bridal parties makeup! When I got my pictures back, everyone commented on how beautiful my makeup was. I would definitely recommend Shenoa to anyone needing a makeup artist for their wedding or any other event!

    Shenoa is the best!

    I was extremely picky about the makeup artist that I selected for my wedding day. I actually really like doing my own makeup and I'm very specific about what I like/don't like for my face. I was convinced I wouldn't find anyone I liked for my wedding day until I met Shenoa. She is absolutely incredible and she did such an amazing job on my makeup that day. It truly was the most beautiful and flawless my makeup has ever looked . Not only my makeup, but my mother and bridesmaids as well. We all had completely different ideas about what we wanted for our makeup that day and she executed all of them perfectly. Beyond her incredible makeup skills it's important to find someone who makes you feel comfortable and relaxed which is exactly what she did for me. She has the sweetest personality and it made all the difference on my wedding day. The pictures of my makeup from my wedding day speak for themselves and for how amazing Shenoa is - she's the best!

    OMG. Look no further. Shenoa is amazing! Truly some of the most beautiful wedding make up I've ever seen. Shenoa went above and beyond to work with me on finding the right look for my wedding and brought such a positive attitude to our morning! No one felt rushed which I find is seldom the case with weddings and she kept a calm, cool demeanor throughout the day. From the moms, to the bridesmaids, to me (the bride!) she made everyone look and feel their absolute best with soft, natural looks. I would recommend her to any bride!

    Shenoa is simply amazing. She is so sweet, kind and just amazing at what she does. I found Shenoa through looking on Instagram and like what I saw. I had her do my engagement photo make-up and knew she was the one to bring on for my wedding. Shenoa listens to what you want, makes you feel beautiful and really ensures you're happy with the outcome. Everyone in my wedding party was amazed at the magic she performs.

    Shenoa is simply amazing! She is one of the nicest people to work with and really listens to her customers. She is extremely talented and more affordable than most makeup artists in the area. She made me and all of my bridesmaids look our best without looking over the top. My makeup held up all day long even though it was a hot muggy day. She is also very flexible. I look forward to working with Shenoa again in the future, she is superb!

    In addition to her calm and up-beat attitude, Shenoa is an amazing makeup artist! Seriously my bridal party mentioned to me how calming she made the environment when she showed up to do our makeup. Shenoa has a lot of great qualities you should look for in a makeup artist. She brings ALL her own makeup and equipment…down to a chair that you sit in and additional lights (if needed). She is skilled with an air brush…which a lot of artists claim to be but you come to find out do not know how to use one. She was able to recommend a makeup look based on my skin tone. I brought some examples from Pinterest of eye looks that I liked and Shenoa immediately knew which one would look best on me. She was patient with me when I asked a billion questions at my trial and tried different levels of glam on my eyes when I wasn’t sure how I wanted my wedding day look to look. She is detail oriented – the day of my wedding she took extra care to make sure my makeup and my mom’s makeup were perfect. She is also was very responsive to emails and texts, which is super nice.

    I meet Shenoa when she did my makeup when I was a bridesmaid for my friends wedding in 2017 and knew at that time that I wanted to use her for my wedding in 2018! She does amazing work and I have loved how I looked every time! She was very flexible and easy to work with from planning the trial to setting up details for the big day! I highly recommend her as a makeup artist!

    Shenoa Nicole Makeup exceeded all of my expectations!! Shenoa is a gorgeous person from the inside- out! And it was such a blessing to have her do my Bridal Makeup, as well as my bridal party's makeup, for my wedding. She is truly an artist. All the women in my bridal party had different skin tones and varying complexions, and Shenoa made each of them look and feel their VERY BEST! My makeup looked absolutely flawless and photographed perfectly!! I'm so grateful I chose Shenoa Nicole Makeup to be a part of such a special and memorable day!!

    I found Shenoa on Instagram but already had booked a makeup artist for my date. Something just kept leading me back to her website and Instagram so I decided to email just to see if she was available by chance. When I found out she was I was so excited, I didn’t even mind losing my deposit with my previously booked artist! Hiring Shenoa was the BEST decision I made! Her work is incredible, all my bridesmaids loved their makeup and my MOH even wants to hire her for her wedding in June! She makes you look flawless and glamorous with her magic brushes but my favorite part about Shenoa is how she makes you feel! From the momen she walked in I felt like she was my long lost best friend who I hadn’t seen in months. I’ve never met anyone so happy and cheerful at 6AM and who radiates such positive vibes which was exactly what a bride needs on her wedding day! She was so excited to learn about me and my fiancé, and all the details of the wedding. I felt like a celebrity by the time she was done and I’m already thinking of ways I can work with her again in the future! If you’re considering Shenoa, pull the trigger already!!! You won’t regret it!!!!

    This woman is amazing! Her talent speaks for itself in the beautiful photos of her many clients. Shenoa is very professional and her eye for make up and what looks good on client is exceptional. She not only makes you look and feel beautiful, she uses on-trend teniques, colors, etc. She made my sister’s wedding day an amazing memory for all of us :)

    Shenoa is an amazing makeup artist. I would definitely recommend her! She is friendly and personable which I think is very important when you consider that this person will be with you all morning on the day of your wedding. My makeup looked flawless and I was so happy with it. She did a trial for me which I loved and when I asked for it to be a bit more dramatic on my wedding day she didn't disappoint. I can't say enough positive things about Shenoa as a person and as a makeup artist.

    I hired Shenoa a few years ago for my wedding and I still look back at pictures and absolutely love my makeup. She is professional and is so nice and easy to work with. I've seen work she's done on friends and others and it is absolutely amazing. She definitely knows how to make someone look and feel their best.

    I originally met Shenoa when I was a bridesmaid in a friend's wedding. She did such a phenomenal job that I knew I wouldn't want to work with anyone else when it was my turn to walk down the aisle. In fact, the first thing I did after we settled on a venue was reach out to her. Planning my wedding while living in Manhattan was a bit stressful, so I was incredibly grateful to have a makeup artist I trusted. I could not be happier with my choice. She made me look amazing on the most important day of my life. Highly recommend!

    Shenoa was incredible. By far the best makeup artist I've worked with. She helped make my wedding day a day to
    remember and I will forever be thankful! She was efficient and super professional. I've already referred her to many people!!

    From the moment I first saw Shenoa's work, I knew that I had to have her for my wedding make-up! She is so talented! You are supposed to look and feel your best on your big day and I have never felt more beautiful in my life! Not only did she make me look amazing, but she made my entire bridal party look amazing too! She is such a sweetheart and makes sure that you are happy with your look. She made the few small adjustments that I wanted from my trial and I couldn't have been happier with the result. She is also great at making recommendations, which was really helpful for me since I don't wear a lot of make-up. I felt so at ease knowing she was doing my make-up for my big day. I highly, highly recommend her for any make-up needs that you may have! Shenoa is the best! Worth every penny!

    Shenoa was as amazing as the art she created. She is an absolutely amazing person inside and out and I looked and felt beautiful because her makeup really accentuated my face and made me look naturally beautiful in person and in pictures for such a memorable event. Thank you Shenoa! You are amazing!

    Shenoa was a huge part in making my wedding day an incredibly memorable day! She made me feel comfortable and beautiful the entire time! Every picture I have seen from that day, my make up is completely in tact, even after dancing! I appreciate her making me feel confident all day long and for helping to make everything come together to complete the exact look I had dreamed about. Not only myself, but all of the bridesmaids and momma looked gorgeous! Shenoa thought of everything including our image in pictures and reflection of light. She is truly a magician at what she does and all the compliments I received that day, and continued to receive when pictures came back, are a sincere indication of her artistic talents! She is truly the very best there is and since my wedding, I've been lucky enough to be in other weddings where she worked her magic too!

    Shenoa's talent is unbelievable! As much as I would have loved to have her on my wedding team, she was booked on my day. She did my makeup for my engagement shoot, and her work was flawless. She captured the exact look I was going for - glam and natural at the same time - which was a challenge many makeup artists have trouble with. She is a joy to work with and I highly recommend hiring her for your big day (or for any other special occasions you might have)!

    I had the best experience with Shenoa. She's so talented and made me feel like a beautiful bride! Furthermore, my mom and whole bridal party also loved their makeup. Beyond her ability as an artist to highlight your best facial features, she's really pleasant to work with!! I'd highly recommend.

    Shenoa is amazing! She was super responsive to all my questions, she traveled to me to do my trial and was super prompt and attentive the day of the wedding. I LOVED how my makeup looked and it lasted all night long. My girls all looked amazing and loved their makeup. She's the best!

    I first met Shenoa in 2014. I was so impressed with her work that I asked her to be my makeup artist for my wedding, which was in a few weeks in June 2014. I received so many compliments on my makeup and the bridesmaids were VERY pleased with how they looked. Shenoa also did my two maternity shoots and baby shower. She has perfected the "natural beauty" look that I love, and is excellent at matching the perfect foundation shades to fit each client. Shenoa responds very quickly and is so accommodating for scheduling and value. Anyone in the DC area who asks me for makeup artist recommendations gets a referral to Shenoa. She seriously is the best!

    Shenoa is honestly the best. She did my makeup for my wedding and just made me feel so special. Not to mention the absolutely AMAZING job she did. It was the perfect balance of me just enhanced. She is a 6 out of 5 stars and anyone would be lucky to have her as their makeup artist for any occasion. Just take a look at her work, it speaks for itself!

    A few years ago, I saw a high school friend on Facebook get married and couldn't get over how well her makeup looked in her pictures. As soon as I got engaged a few months later, I contacted my friend to get Shenoa's contact info. After I met with her once, I knew I hired the right makeup artist. She was amazing from the trial, to the day of the wedding! Not only does she have an amazing talent, but she's a total sweetheart! She really connected with my whole bridal party and they all loved her. I would recommend her to any future brides out, without hesitation. They won't be disappointed!

    I enjoyed every part of working with Shenoa. She was 100% professional through the entire process of scheduling all of my wedding appointments through to my wedding day. I had complete trust in Shenoa and in her craft by being in a few bridal parties where she did our makeup. I knew she was who I wanted to do my bridesmaids and family members as well as my makeup on my big day. I love her style and she gets me and the look that I was going for on my wedding day. She is effortless with her skills but does an exceptional job.
    Shenoa was able to do 8 women's makeup for my wedding with time to spare on my big day. She is nothing but a joy to work with and such a sweet woman. I would recommend her to any one of my friends or family, no questions asked.

    I had no idea where to start when it came to my wedding makeup but I knew I needed someone great as my makeup knowledge doesn't go much beyond mascara! After a few consultations I was feeling very defeated and confused. As the 2013 wedding season started rolling around, I was seeing photos on Facebook from a friends salon of flawless makeup and knew I needed to book whoever was doing it. Shenoa is incredibly amazing - creative, flexible, adaptable, and very personable! She clearly loves what she does which makes the world of difference with any vender. I booked her after our first conversation solely based on how sweet she was, all the amazing reviews from friends, and photos from her portfolio. I can say without hesitation that she exceeded all expectations. From the moment I met her at my makeup trial, she put me completely at ease and I knew I'd made the right choice. She specializes in making you look naturally beautiful which was a huge relief for me since I don't typically wear much makeup. On my wedding day in June 2014, She showed up right on time and was beyond wonderful to work with. It was like having an old friend do my makeup. Shenoa also did the makeup for three of my bridesmaids and everyone was raving about their makeup as well. People downplayed the importance of wedding makeup to me when planning but words can't even express how grateful I am for Shenoa. I felt flawless and the most beautiful version of myself (never caked on or fake looking) on my wedding day which I think every girl deserves. Our pictures are perfect, I never once needed a touch up all night and I even had some friends and family comment on how some pictures look like beauty/makeup ads. I wish I could hire her for my daily makeup needs and for any and all special events!! I just can't say enough about her and how lucky anyone is to work with her, it'll be the best decision you make!

    Shenoa is truly an artist. Every face she touches she is able to highlight the beauty of that person and make them feel special. Shenoa did my makeup for my wedding day and I could not have been happier. The time and effort she spends on each face is priceless and all of my bridesmaids felt amazing. I can also attest that all of the brides and bridesmaids of my closest friends and family that I have referred to her (8 to be exact!) have felt exactly the same way. I have had the pleasure of having her do my makeup as a bridesmaid in 3 weddings and I always look forward to the different looks she is able to give me each time. She is a beautiful person on the inside and out and is an extremely talented artist. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants to look flawless for their special day!

    Cannot say enough great things about Shenoa!!! From her website to the makeup trial to the actual day she is top notch! Our makeup got rave reviews not only from myself, bridesmaids and wedding guests but also from all of the groomsmen! Every single one commented on how great all the girls looked. She also did my mother and mother-in-law's makeup and they looked radiant, elegant and age-appropriate (but still hot!!). For York or Lancaster brides: she is based out of the D.C. Area and York but she actually lives near D.C. so it did take some planning ahead to get a trial on the calendar but she is definitely flexible! Wonderful personality, very professional and easy to work with. I was sending her Pinterest ideas days leading up to the wedding and she was totally on board to do any look I was into. A++ experience ! Thank you Shenoa!

    Shenoa is the best makeup artist I've had the pleasure of working with by a mile (I was a bridesmaid but referred her to the bride). She's so friendly, easy to talk to the entire time, not to mention amazingly talented with her art. I remember looking in the mirror afterward and saying, "I can't believe that's my face!" Between my sister and myself, we've referred quite a few bridal parties to her, and I've never heard anything but wonderful reviews. If you need a reasonable, fun, dedicated makeup artist for any special occasion, she is definitely your girl. I would recommend Shenoa to anyone. You will be so thrilled. I hope to use her for my own wedding someday!

    If you are looking for an incredible makeup artist.. look no further- Shenoa is amazing at what she does!!! She did my makeup while being a bridesmaid in my sisters wedding, and when it came time to start planning my wedding, contacting Shenoa was one of the first things I did. Not only is she very sweet and so easy to work with, but she is by far the best makeup artist out there! She made me feel so confident and beautiful on my special day and I can't thank her enough!

    Shenoa was amazing throughout the entire process and I couldn’t be happier. She delivered beautiful make up that lasted all night and she went the extra mile and helped out one of my bridesmaids in a pinch. She was super friendly and was honestly like one of the girls which made getting ready that much better. I would definitely use Shenoa for events in the future!

    LOVE LOVE LOVE Shenoa and her work!

    Shenoa was amazing! And I can't begin to say how happy I was with how she did our makeup and how easy she was to work with. She really pays attention to what you like/don't like, and takes into account the lighting, wedding vibe, etc. . I also have several scars that I wanted to cover up, and I spent a good amount of time finding the right makeup artist I wasn't embarrassed to show them to and someone who would be able to help cover them up. She was so patient with me, recommended various products, and tested out different things to make sure they'd stay covered up all day. And, I can't even begin to describe how great of a job she did hiding them. My husband and photographer didn't even know the scars were there!

    She did a flawless job for my engagement photos and wedding, and I received so many compliments on how beautiful we looked. It was a "soft glam" look that was natural and brought out our features, without being too over the top (which is exactly what I wanted. I didn't want us to look like we caked on 10 lbs of makeup). I was also really happy and impressed that she uses top quality products, so I knew the makeup would last all day. One of my favorite things about Shenoa was how down to earth is she and easy to talk to. My bridesmaids and I chatted up a storm with her, and again - I was just really comfortable to let her do her magic on my makeup and covering up my scars/imperfections. I can't wait to work with her again for other events!

    Bridal make up

    Shenoa was awesome. She was professional, on time and had the best personality. I don’t really like to wear make up but she was able to make me feel natural with a full face on. She really listens to what you do or do not like. I would highly recommended her.
